Mast is ready.

As the weather in Turkey tends to improve a bit, I am again focused on splashing my boat for the first days of Spring.

The mast is finished and looks really beautiful. It was built by a friend of mine, Sacit, who has built some really nice looking masts here in Turkey. I am really grateful to him and believe my boat has never looked any better. On the left side of the picture you can actually see a Didi 26 Sacit also built. Its a really great boat and we race it here in Turkey during the sailing season.


Here are a few more detailled pictures of the mast……


….and the proud owner.


All I need to do now is add sails , some salt water and feel like a real sailor :)

    Discontinuous shrouds, I see some pulling the boat down to the dock in your future!

    ... and turn those jib cars around :)

    ... then go get the thing wet!!!!
