Hi All,

I've been here before, an am still workining on my trimaran after a computer
crash.

Yes, I'm the neolithic person that most of you laughed at....

Sorry for the typos, but does anyone know how to *remove* fiberlass? I
wound up with a thick glob of it over the first third of the central hull,
and need to take it off before progressing.

Dynamite, Cheisels, rasps, sandpaper, and lot's of elbow grease... How
you get it off revolves around two words, elbow grease. Think of how
bad it would be to have to chip, scrape, sand, etc that stuff away as
the hotter it gets the harder it is to work and the faster it fills
the chosen tool, that's about half as bad as it will be. In all
seriousness, you just got to grind or chop it off with whatever you
have, it sucks...

Interesting Note: My Mother came back from a trip to Hawaii, and I
discovered that boat there were make from hollowed out tree trucks, rather
that plank-construction as was used in the other Polynesian Islands.
...Interesting little book she brought back for me, though I'd rather know
the plank construction style as well...

Steve, I'm sorry I never replied. Computer crash.

I'd love to see these little trimarans sailed around Tampa Bay, and am
willing to be an apprentice....

Thanks!

Sandra
