A bow bumper is required. But does. It does NOT need to be included in the overall length. So you can build the boat to rt inches and the add a nose cone..
When you weight the hull for measurement purposes. It has to be a bare hull. Ie. No paint no interior structures no water proofing. I highly doubt you’ll be under weight... |

honestly craig, I haven't seen any real good pics either. ramos makes his glass hulls with a flat portion on the bow like the IOM hulls, and then uses a custom molded silicone to finish the for the bumper. I think Walt is going to do that on his , while I'm going with the over the nose bumper

Progress was slowed at i was waiting for parts from sails etc. had to pull up some board and will have to redo the rear hatches. A few pieces got crooked and the more and more I looked at it. It kept bugging me.
I did finish the rig and now that I have the bits from the store I can mount the thru deck turning block, main sheet post, jib attachment point and back stay attachment. |
