Here's a glimpse of the upcoming build series of my new tender to Flying Spur! The mast sections are mated together by an inner-ring of epoxied carbon fiber tape The sail was cut from tanbark cloth by Sailrite. I assembled everything from there I decided to use a mast track instead of the common "zippered sleeve" for reasons of simplicity and durability. A small shim was used to "ramp" the track between the different-sized mast poles, and it glides really well. Music: "The Bottom of The Ocean" by Matt Garver
Ahoy, Sailing Goat crew! Join us in the latest episode of our boat refit adventure, where we dive into the intricate world of cable rerouting around the boat. Watch as we work through the challenges (and maybe a few mistakes!) to prepare connections for sensors, chartplotters, and radios. The blonde dynamo is back from home, bringing a treasure trove of items we've eagerly awaited to push forward with our work. The highlight of this episode? The crucial installation and setup of the Raspberry Pi micro PC, our backup system in case all hell breaks loose.
