Spring is in the air.

During the last two weeks most of the ice in the  archipelago where I live has disappeared! I had hoped to get the ice boat ready in time to atleast have a first test on spring ice but as always with projects like this they tend to take longer than expected. On the other hand spring ice conditions this year would not have allowed ice sailing any way.

Even if I consider the ambition level of the build to be fairly low quite some time has been spent. A rough estimate of time spent so far is somewhere around 40 hours.

The next step is to start building runner shocks and runners. I have come to a milestone and therefore it feels like a good idea to take a break from the build now before starting on the metal work.

Below some pictures of what the boat looks like now.
