Building a Morbic 12 named Olive

  Without great fanfare, or big audience, an impulsive 1st launch took place, the weather was nice and calm and reasonably warm for late October, so the opportunity was taken. The wind picked up a little later and we were able to give it a good test, it was quick to set up, sailed beautifully, and more stable than I was expecting, all attributes that I was hoping for, and the inspiration for making it. So luckily, worth all the effort.

The mast is finally complete and now rigging can begin....... Some a bit temporary for now but will tidy it up when I know it works Virtually ready to launch, just as the weather is turning wintery, maybe a drysuit purchase is required.
