Ok all done now finished dangly pole just got to get it out on the water and see how well it goes tunned it up to a fashion (no real numbers to go on mast rake about 270 best i can get at moment)
ready for next project quite fancy a daggerboard boat if anyone has one up for grabs when Gillespie comes out of garage ill be ready for next project.

Here are the pics of what ive done to poor old Kaon in a mission of modernisation hopefully will take to upriver open next week for first outing while Gillespie gets TLC

Has anyone got list of measurements to set up a pipe dream Kaon is almost ready to be back on the water but want to tune it up as best I can in hope of taking to upriver next sunday as Gillespie is not ready for new season yet.
 
if anyone has had a pipe dream and remeber the measurements used would be great
regards Paul

with a little luck we will be there Gillespie needs some varnishing doing so unless its extra warm this week It wont be done.
So I will be bringing kaon a pipe dream if I can finish off the last few bits and hoping for very light winds lol
 
regards Paul
