First Australian Swift Solo

Back on the job……….

Posted on Tuesday 13 February 2007

I’ve been a little distracted in the last few months as I have bought a new family boat………..

One of these

Anyway I’m now back on the job and I’ve got a couple of pictures to prove it.

The launcher throat has been made and installed. It is also reinforced on each side with carbon. The jib track is also done and has been left at full width to let the jib fully blade out in the Aussie breezy conditions.

Most of the other hardware is also installed. I just need to finish off and then it will be time to bond hull to deck.

    GREAT! Love to see the progress on your boat.
    Have skipped our (companies) Swift projects for the moment and had ordered a Bladerider. Will give the Moth a try at least, but the Swift SOLO has not disappeared from my radar…
