Painting - Colour goes on!

The deck colour is on and the first of the real COLOUR is on

 - the new banner was put up to give a hint as to how the hull will look.

yes red, yes yellow and yes with a shearwater (cagarro) 

my old wharram design and colour scheme should have been a clue as to my thinking on colour and Boat Nose Art - see the old post here

 Cagarro Project Caps

The following on the blog has been awesome,

Thank you for your views

It is now the time that some somewhat expensive items  need to be acquired -  
(I was going to create a wish list but I thought that you could contribute and at the same time receive something in return) - the list goes on... anchor, life jackets, flares, life harnesses, etc etc  and ... on.

And so I have created some merchandise to raise funds for these things - lets see how it goes

The first item is an embroidered  Cagarro Cap, 

Navy with white embroidery,

with a matte silver coloured closure

Only 2 available at the moment but more will be on the way, depending on response

price per cap €30, excluding shipping.

please contact me for a shipping quote via the contact form
on the right hand side of the blog.

Payment via PayPal

matte silvercolour closure,
the yellow colour is a reflection from the "land" in the chart background

 

 Making Nicholson type dorade vents

you can also see the pulpit support struts in progress on the left 

the shape looks a bit different because of the super wide lens, 

but they are exactly the same -  from a mould the edges just need to be trimmed and a base to be made

The inspiration, these do not leak , 

and I have a closing solution for really wet weather
