Thanks John, it's been a worth while struggle but we got there. Hope all is well

May you have many hours and days enjoying it. We have called the transit, Campy. Lizzie is very creative with her titles. I've fitted 2 deep cycle battery's under one of the beds and an inverter 1500 watts, as well as two wall plugs. We've done one day, nighter and a few afternoons. We are pleased with it and believe it an honest and well looked after vehicle. Happy trail's 😀👍😎🚐🚐

Thanks Colin. I agree but have been told twice it is left me guessing. I certainly dont remember it being that hard when I worked with it in the joiners shop.

It runs part way up that line to keep some tension on which can stop the downhaul catching on the cross trees

I had to google some words of this, as it is a second language..so it keeps tension on the line, that is keeping the rear tip of the jib-boom up, so it doesn't get caught in the spreaders?@@dreamjewels

Part of the "old" New Zealand I feel Thanks for your comment

Thanks for your nice comment...will pass it on to builder

Certainly is Fay, I never saw it as the pics were presented to me to make a record of the build. Another video is coming on a clinker buid Alan Wolstenholme designed dingy..... as he is selling that as well

We were all asked to stay home when covid was at its height.....I believe it was the same in many countries 😊

I agree, they seem to glide rather than bob up and down..... Cheers

Hi to you ,None of the yachts in this video are DF65s they are All International One Meters or I O M Most are hand made and all have standard sized mylar sails. They are as the title tells us 1 meter in length and all have to weigh in excess of 4kg complete and ready to sail. Hope this helps, cheers Peter

Thanks Fay..... can't imagine how you would be so biased....lol 😆

Thanks indeed, It taken a while to get here but well worth the work the members have put in . Cheers

Thanks a lot for the nice comment. The members have certainly been busy when not sailing.

Thanks Fay, Its a relaxing day when the wind is quiet. There is still more to do at the grounds and we are trying to raise money for a ride on mower. Cheers

Thanks, I do enjoy making things work and look good, P

Thanks for your kind words, We have had some great times out on the roads here. Follow your dreams.....it would be a miserable life if we didnt have them 😀

Thanks Chris. Have already had a chch chap ask who to contact.....

Hi how do you pump up the tyres?

I would suggest at a bike shop if you don't have a pump. Pumps are available at an additional cost.

Of course there are rules!!!! As it is an interclub race we have new members racing with the experienced members. As you may realise not all clubs have perfect members who are aware of all the rules.

Yes, you are correct. Thanks for taking the time

Thanks for your kind words

Thanks for your comment, I had a look at your videos and noted that the length was in seconds, the noise of the wind and a language I could not understand. I am not saying your are wrong but 15 mins of wind noise or no noise has to be considered. I cant talk for that long and I dont like silence in videos that I watch and in my past 40 +++ videos no person has ever commented re no music, quite the opposite in fact so I believe we shall have to agree to disagree re the rights and wrongs of music. Loved you boom vang by the way Cheers

Thanks, its a great club we have here

Sorry about that, usually i dont talk on video but will take more care in future

Hi, Im not sure what you mean there. I am in New Zealand and would presume an English caravan exported to your country would be the same as it is when it arrives here Please feel free to ask more questions. Must add that the video was made here in NZ by me ..Cheers, Peter

Thank you kindly! It has won 2 Trophies since this was done.....very pleasing.😀

Thanks for your great comment the music was called Entrance Of Sporting Heroes by Rafael Krux I thought it was rather apt for what we do.

HI John, yes, it was me who took the pictures. Hope you got your battery sorted.

Sorry about that, asking $1990.00 or $1995.00 buy now. Trade Me Listing No 3489928806 Cheers Peter

Hi and thanks for the message. It depends where you are for boats for sale. If you were here in new Zealand I could help but contacting your local club may be a start as most clubs have extra boats with the odd ones for sale

Thanks for the comment and it is a peaceful spot, the boat number is 42

Glad you like it!, we needed more room to relax and this gives it to us. Its all white Oak inside, just been sanding the table edges and smells great.lol

Thanks 👍, looking forwards to going away for the first time

Thanks Gary, it sure was a fun day

Thanks very much Its a great club to sail with

Quite hard to stay within the rules in strong winds but penalties are taken.....
