PROGRE$$..

😎😎



 Drilling up the holes of 'put corrosion' to get good aluminum edged holes 2 weld on..
 
 

 


BTW.. This cut out part is where through hulls of toilet in front were..  Toilet is moving 2 the back,

so the through hulls in front could better be taken out..

We will close this as last because now we have a nice way 2 communicate and see each other and pass things through..  works nice..  😎

The R14m is designed to carry less than the maximum crew weight allowed under the IMS so has more inbuilt stability to carry the large fractional rig. It is very fast reaching and running, while heavy enough and with sufficient righting moments for fast windward performance - especially in fresh conditions. The point of vanishing stability (not including the positive effect of the house) is in excess of 130deg.
