this blog aims to be a view into my practice as an artist. a window into work in progress. it also serves as a basic reflective tool for myself and a way of exposing my thinking through making to anyone else.

Oops. New weight!
I forgot to deduct the weight of the ply bar so final weight calcs are:
77.246 kg for rigged weight
55.176 kg for hull weight including centre board. Wow, thats spot on the weight i required in my design brief to be able to lift the boat on to the truck roof bars.
Why were you deducting the weight of then ply bar. From what I remember of this type of calculation the weight and center of gravity of the bar will be needed in the final calculation unless the bar sticks out the same distance each side of the fulcrum. Just a thought.
