This is the story of the "Dewdrop" (previously "Kathleen-Charlotte"). She's a Wooden Silhouette MK II, designed by Robert Tucker and built by Hurley Yachts of Plymouth in 1960. She was literally saved from the bonfire November 2006 and was given to me as a project. PLEASE READ FROM THE BOTTOM UP and feel free to leave comments!(More info on Silhouette's can be found at www.soia.org.uk) ***PLEASE READ FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE BLOG UPWARDS!***
The cockpit coamings were added seperately to the cabin sides. The join will be neatly concealed by a mahogany "Butt-Strap". The coamings are made up of two lots of 12mm plylaminated together. They'll be planed nicely to shape and capped as per the originals.
