bullet proof keel

12mm threaded rod through the blade top to bottom. 50mm nuts with 5mm cross nuts and bolt to hold our lifting system and to stop nuts coming undone or a thread failure of the 12mm rod (unlikely).


I'm going to make the bulb in one piece again--read the old post about the first one--glutton for punishment but I like one piece and I have the mold ready to go.

Shazza is also scoring a new carbon rudder and cassette box, soon to be built by Laurie and myself.
