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. 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!***

New Hatch Runners




I made up the new Hatch Runners today to the correct size and glued them. A "sash clamp" proved invaluable for this task.


I used 18mm Meranti for this job which I bought rough sawn and ran through a thicknesser to achieve the desired finish.
