Over the past few weeks this boat has continued to transform into something that is simply incredible….

The build list included:
-Painting the hull
-Painting the deck and spraying non skid
-Installing most of the deck hardware
-More work on the foil cant system
-Building the rudder system (lifting and rake)
-Improvements to the mast
-Finishing the bow sprit and boom
-Running rigging work and order modifications
-Electronics installation continues
-Bow numbers and name were applied to the hull!

Hoping to launch soon so we can finally get out on the water!!!

Thank you to everyone who is following along and for the support from sponsors, parters, donors, friends, and family….this would not be possible without everyone’s help!

We are still seeking a title sponsor, so never too late to get your brand’s logo on the hull and sails. 🌊 🚀



-Building trailer bunk mounts

Another day closer to launch….Was it productive? Yes. Was it frustrating at times? Definitely. Overall, I think we can call it a small win today. This boat will be incredible once it gets on the water…

Today there was work on installing some hardware, more work on improving the foil casings, coordinating rigging, and a few other jobs on the to do list. Almost everything on this boat is custom which comes with its own challenges along the way.
