Børge Posted August 28, 2013 Author #181 Posted August 28, 2013 This evening i made 5 more boys, sanded and ready for painting tomorrow. Then they will be fitted with rope, and i guess i have to make a kind of holder for them to.

Børge Posted August 29, 2013 Author #182 Posted August 29, 2013 (edited) Have painted a thin stroke of white on the fenders, and made a holder for them. It did put my silver solder skills on a test, "it was small" That was a tricky operation , burned my fingertip... Turned out ok in the end.. Might install it on thie side of the cabin..

Jim Lad Posted August 29, 2013 #183 Posted August 29, 2013 I bet that's a lot neater than the original yacht, Børge. The fenders were probably lying around in the cabin or cockpit to be tripped over! John captainbob and Børge 2
