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.

Clean buttstraps!



It's imperative to clean all of the old veneers and glue residue from the buttstraps before bonding the new ply. It's a little time consuming but critical for a firm bond.
