2014 AGM Member List

....perhaps some of this could be moved to a 'builder chit-chat' thread?
..overall the tone's okay(?)....learning and info sharing,,,and good to have a dialogue between class and builder,fersure

...good to get back to the intent of this thread

[admin]

Thanks, man!

Hey I forgot to add, the chit-chat about a potential summer regatta has been moved to the Racing an i550 sub-forum. Apologies for any confusion that may have arisen. The phpBB control panel is a murky beast.

...as much as I have a certain resistance to 'join anyone who'd have me as a member',,,,

....I'm Michael france,,,Vancouver BC,Canada....hull #240...'Carbon Offset',,,origionally built by BenDoo
...with an additional planset #411 purchased from 'watershed'

...here's 'carbon's photofile......... http://www.flickr.com/photos/59103003@N ... 076955693/

....maybe you could get a UPS upgrade to 'singing telegram' with some dancing-girls,,and get a few pics of that delivery--it's likely those gals would perhaps be a bit more camera friendly!?

....I'm lucky that I haven't had to deal directly with all those levels of certification/liability bureaucracy yet,,but saw a -bit- of what's involved with the rocket22 project....certainly the process of building a -single- boat is enough for most people,,and the process that each person goes through between building,,rig set-up,,foil making and general dynamics is awesome......... ...........gearing-up for a production run,and the associated finances and time invested is definitely a whole different level again

...I doubt anyone would seriously expect to get a full lay-up schedule from you,,,but you'll be asked a lot about resin-type,panel thickness,and cloth and core-types....it's a great message you're giving about weight distribution and all,,and I'm certainly one of the curious masses that will be interested to learn about your project as it folds out in -your- time.

...another fun set of pics would be to see some destructive panel testing in action--I know Boeing gained a lot of publicity with their destructive wing tests!

...I also like the various kit-forms you're offering,,,a good way to keep people's hands on and costs down

This is how you test a sailboat: http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=utube+hobie+33&FORM=VIRE3#view=detail&mid=6753E56F769C4C0BB9896753E56F769C4C0BB989

We do need to get another thread for all this stuff. Some jousting back and forth is great, it seems to hijack this a bit though.

Glad you are in micah202!

[admin]

I'll put it into a HOW TO TEST MATERIALS THREAD, which interestingly enough, was addressed very recently on a kindler, gentler forum that is a spin-off from Middle School (Sailing Anarchy).

Noel

[Kevin]

Excellent news Noel. Talk to you tomorrow. k.

[i550sailor@aol.com]

Kevin, The interior is pre-primed, chainplates went in today, the foredeck goes on tomorrow, so unless you are counting the cabin top, (I will install it next week), we should be good to go. My contact info: Mark Stieber Hull #505, Palmer Lake , Colorado. i550sailor@aol.com

[i550sailor@aol.com]

I got the the deck bonded this morning, you can kinda see the boat under my high-tech clamping system. We had a birthday party to go to and was unable to make the conference call this afternoon, i would be curious to hear the highlights.

[Chad]

Looks good, well aware of the paint can clamping method!

Kevin's writing up the minutes, and all on the member list will receive an email ballot on Monday.

[TexLex]

Hey all. Sorry I am late to the party. I have been so busy and havent looked on here in a while. Just wanted to make sure I was on the list!

Looking good Noel. Is that a round portlight hole on the cabin?

Your in for the 2015 AGM.

[noemar]

Yes ,copied your idea.

[noemar]

Is there a 2015 AGM Member list? Do I qualify? Will there be a 2015 version of boost the cloth?
noemar

[jray]

Most definitely you qualify, there was no AGM in '15. Not much going on and I didn't get it going. We should have one this year.

I would like to see another boost the cloth.

[i550sailor@aol.com]

That round cabin Portal looks familiar???
