If I were in Newfoundland I would use the weather as an excuse for my slow progress. But beautiful sailing up there. Not to mention good music!<BR/><BR/>The CB is heavy enough. But when installed into the heavy well sides (I used locust for the seat risers and pivot support) it is a nearly unliftable beast.S R Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08934872671798326776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489685783704493755.post-82318143177979264292009-03-18T08:40:00.000-04:002009-03-18T08:40:00.000-04:00Great progress.

Log may become my tiller.<BR/><BR/>I just drilled the pivot hole yesterday; through the corner in the wide flat area at the top (right side of the picture) of the board.<BR/><BR/>It's still unclear how I'm expected to haul up an 80-pound centerboard.S R Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08934872671798326776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489685783704493755.post-56926386292503570852009-03-16T11:08:00.000-04:002009-03-16T11:08:00.000-04:00Looks cool!

Great looking centerboard--nice smooth transitions. Does it pivot, and if so, where's the pivot hole?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5489685783704493755.post-27907367329973292042009-03-15T11:03:00.000-04:002009-03-15T11:03:00.000-04:00Wow!
