[quote=Andinista]My first boat, a N5.0 project:
- cracked paint on the hulls
- very ugly trampoline repair
- tiller extension made of two ski poles (pretty cool actually)
- home made mast with a more square shaped extrusion and home made base and head parts. (Non captive base)
- Diamond wire adjudters with a hook on each side and the wires fixed with a bolted presses rather than nicopress (same with some of the standing rigging wires)
- mast float made of a bouncing ball (bouncing around all the time)
- very old mainsail, the classic red-orange-yellow but with a big rust stain and full of dacron adhesive patches.
Great learning experience. I sailed it many years, until i dismasted and lost confidence on its integrity (not just me but also my crew)<!-- editby --><em>Edited by Andinista on Jul 17, 2021 - 11:13 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
