Spring is here and boat building is picking up speed. There is fantastic news. Thanks to the help of my colleagues from the sailing club I finally found a bigger workshop to put the boat together and bought a Harbeck BT 2500 trailer. Thank you so much for your support.

In my opinion, the best thing about the ClassGlobe concept is the combination of an ocean-going but still trailerable boat. My dream boat is developing.

I used the spring offers from a ship electronics dealer to set up the electronics for my boat. Bought a B&G plotter and a VHF-AIS as well as a PLB device for personal safety equipment. The construction of the keel is progressing. The profiling of the keel fin and the rudder is currently being milled at a CNC company. The keel will be welded by the end of this month.

The upcoming grinding work will be very exhausting. That’s why I invested in really good machines again. A Festool LS 130 linear sander for small fine corners, a Mirka DEOS 343 CV slider for the ordinary jobs and compressed air slider Festool LRS 400 for sanding the large hull surfaces have been added to my tool portfolio.
