Schooner Rachel Corrie
• Mar. 21, 2005 - It is looking like a boat
One of the difficult decisions was to decide on the slope of forward windows of the wheel house. The choice was sloping back and giving it a 'yachty look ' or forward and give it a 'comercial look'.
For a number good reason, commercial look it was to be. Visitors at that stage asked, but it has no widows, how are you going to see where you are going? So I painted windows on the inside with comments, here are going to be windows.

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.
