Nicely done Fred, you'll be the envy of other model sail boaters.

Fred, I now exactly what you mean!!! I taught math and coached for years, and I can tell you even there, I am more aware of what I don't know or understand now than when I started. Wood working was different only in that I never had any training or experience to start with!! Still great fun and I love learning! Nice work as well.

Here is the final product with the 3 sails stored away. Considering these sails cost $1000, it's best to protect them while transporting them. This radio controlled sailboat hobby is costing me as much as my full size 25' O'day does.
