Broken bones

I just got the email today that the designer, Geoff, has broken some bones in his foot - so there'll be a bit of a delay in getting the spine here. With the spine pre-fabricated with the centreboard cassetted, rudder slot (we're using a kick up stern mount rudder, forestay fitting, and mast stump the build should progress quickly once it arrives.
On the plus side, the Western Red Stringers (chines and gunwhales) are made up and ready to fit, and the mould is covered in packing tape. The delay will give me a bit more time to practice working with the resin and get an idea on pot life.
Get better soon Geoff.
