Re-building the Dewdrop

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.

Back to work!

Moved Dewdrop back into the shed today. My 9mm marine ply has arrived so I cleaned up the framework ready for the new hull section to go on.
I've decided to make a template out of thin hardboard first so I get the shape exactly right on the ply.
I'll be so much happier when that's on and I can start work on the decks.
