JEM Watercraft

Did some epoxying yesterday and woke up to this









I think i've got the dreaded almine blush

Temprature dropped a fair bit in the afternoon

I'm assuming I only have to sand out last coat..........thats what I'm hopeing

Anyhow its next weekends problem yes water drops in last pic are my tears

So I took Sabalo fishing even the water was cold all the fish were at home in front of the fire me thinks was a good paddle though

might be the case. See if it wipes of with a little bit of vinegar or acetone and little elbow grease.

I see you were paddling north. Just keep paddling. It will warm up the further you go. It was 91 F up here when I sanded and epoxied yesterday.

Bemm,

"Marriage is like a build, sometimes it takes a couple of go's to get it right"

Looks as if you're on track I wouldn't change a thing mate, build looks great and the cheese and kisses is happy what more could a man wan't. Can't wait to get out and have a paddle with you guys.

I was looking back at your previous build on the Sabolo, I liked the way you knocked up those frogs eyes for the cable rudder to run through the deck. Any chance you could spin a couple up for the Dodger would be ideal solution to add on to the Okwata

The end is in sight

Getting the waterline sorted for graphite





Looking at second photo it may need some adjustment just forward of midships

I like the way sometimes the camera is clearer than ones eyes

Artful Dodger came for a look and to return my rudder ........................................

He seemed concerned by the boats lack off beam

At least the bride can swim

Can't wait to see how this performs - it looks like it will be very fast.

Just a word of caution Bemm - be careful when discussing "beam" and "the bride" in the same post - them's dangerous waters

Bob did you say Bream

"...did you say Bream"

I guess I must have!

...that's a good size one too.
