Re: Folding schooner news
Good for you Paul!
Still working on my FS... Finished building the bird's mouth masts,
booms and gaffs and am almost done sanding the whole thing...
It's coming together nicely so far!
I'll update with new pictures soon...

i recieved a phone call today, from bloke in Brisbane (the other
side of Australia) . who has built a folding schooner in 100 days.
Quite a few interesting mods to. swinging centreboard, full lenght
flotation, fancy pocket luffgaff sails,bowsprit and roller furl jib.
looks like a giant racing skiff. very slick looking job for $AUS
8,000. It apparently featured in Australian Amatuer Boatbuilder. Must
have been a small feature, because I missed it. IT must havehade the
magic hex word that gets your articles shrunk. B*****.
If I can figure it out I'll post the photo to Bolger 10 the newphoto
site.
ON other news the schooner Waltzing Matilda was on the water today.
lots of little people forcrew . the weather was foul so I took out
groups of kids and taught them to use the O/B. I waited all day
fortrhe big kids to turn up so we could hoist some sails, but they
took their time and showed up when it was time to pack up so no
sailing.
Next time out I intend to try rerigging her as a Standing lug
schooner,loose footed. I really am not happy with that massive boom
on the mainsail.
. I feel really good tonight, sunburnt,windblasted, tired, and
happy.Ahhhhhhhhh!
