Setka A Cagarro

 Bow basket/ Pulpit
series drogue attachment and all chainplates mounted,
and galley box 

These are some of the many things I have not shown over the last weeks, 

8mm Stainless studs 9cm long, glued (using west 404) into the bow basket, some foam was removed behind the epoxy glass (G10) round plates to create a "bung" (kinda like removing the foam core in a deck and filling the void with epoxy) so it should be super difficult for it to pull out. If chemical anchors can be used in construction then this is a boat version of a chemical anchor

Made of Divinycell and lots of glass, it is super strong and weighs a fraction of what a stainless one would, Also I had the material, so I used it - I am taking Janusz Maderskis word as gospel  - keeping the top of the mast clear of things to keep weight and windage down and also keeping the deck as light as possible and I think keeping the ends of the boat light should help a lot as well.

added some Roger Taylor of  Mingming, and Alan Mulholland of Wave Rover, type attachment points for a Jordan Series drogue or Long Warp. There were substantial doublers glued to the hullside during the build to act as backing for these

the dual use galley box/step, with a really light seat that can be moved to where it is needed

The galley box slides under the cockpit "cave" and the lid is held in place by the front of the companionway wall, the lid is removable and can be used as a tray/prep area, 

here, the gas cooker is in its shipped position so it cannot swing, and the space to the side will be used for cooking gear and also the day food stowage  - , the cooker can be moved to the centre to cook and the box should contain any spills when its bouncy and its all epoxy coated so spills wont be a problem

The cooker in the gimballed position

and I almost forgot that the walls were painted to lighten and brighten the inside and the cream offsets the wood really well.

Lots more is happening more to follow
