Sailing Isabella

After 8 long years of rehab I am enjoying the fruits of my (& friends) labor!

Finally going over the side!

Zern Rigging out of Pensacola putting up the new rig

Progress continues on the dodger project. Finally, got Isabella back in the water and new rigging installed. The dodger has been put on the back burner. I have to have it to go to the Bahamas in the spring, so will be getting back to it soon.

It is really starting to look like something and I like the look of it on the boat.
look at the photo gallery for more pictures.

A Hard Dodger is a must in my book. So I am attempting to design and build one that will be both functional and not take away from the lines of the boat. There are additional pics in the Gallery.
I have made the form out of 1/4" marine grade plywood. This form will be lined with structural foam like Corecell and fiberglassed; creating a very strong structure that can take a large wave.

Made new combing locker doors out of StarBoard.
