Schooner Rachel Corrie
• Mar. 21, 2005 - Erection of the first Frame on the 16mm keel bottom
As I designed the frames, I already included the structures for the interior. Here in this frame, part of the galey to be is in. The 50mm angle bar for the floor is also in, and as soon as I had 5 frames up, I started fitting of the floor. That made life easy. The mig welder could be moved around in the boat.

About Me
That is the story of building a schooner of my own design, how came I designed it, how I built it, how I knocked my haed a few times and lost 4 woman over it. The legal battle I had with a yacht club, corrupt harbour officials and how the law totally fails in Namibia.
But nevertheless, it was fun, I am glad I did it, but I would not recommend it, unless a special boat cannot be found. As this was my case.
