  • THE TRANSOM BUILD CONTINUES with epic amounts of sanding, fairing and more sanding. This part of the process is so important as this will determine the quality of the look once we paint.
    We take you through the pain staking work of perfecting the edges and the main transom surface.
    Hope you enjoy the video!

    Salt water and electronics rarely mix and the ocean is not friendly with our gear. Things are constantly breaking or rusting apart. These are a few of the things we hope to get to keep bringing Sailing Zephyr to you.

    Keep up the awesome work! Crushing it!

    The key to sanding happiness. Use the right grit for the material and the job. Keep the paper fresh. Don't skimp on sandpaper. New paper equals many fewer strokes and much less elbow grease. Good work so far. See you on the sea.

      Hi David! Thanks for watching the build! What a massive project! All the Timelapse’s make it look like a fast and easy job! 😨 happy new year to you too mate

    Curious how you are going to hinge the platform in a way that it will support people standing on top. I would have expected some type of stainless structure inside the form.

    • @SailingZephyr
      @SailingZephyr  Před rokem

      Great question. The platform itself is incredibly rigid as is. There will be two anchor points on the putter corners which will be connect by dyneema to the stern. And two massive 316 ss hinges. She’ll be rock solid.

    Isn’t it called a “Sugar Scoop”?

    • @SailingZephyr
      @SailingZephyr  Před rokem +1

      The sugar scoop is the slightly hollowed out part of the stern of your boat on a sailboat that doesn’t have anything else there.

      Apologies Robert. Sometimes parts of our life that we show or projects we undertake…not everyone is interested in. There has been a lot of people keen to see how this project unfolds. But I understand your feelings and not to worry the projects ends very shortly. Cheered for watching.
