Re: AD 14 mast partner location

Re: TW28 for Adriatic Sea
Congratulations Dario on the successful launch of your boat. As with all of us it took longer to build as the estimated building time.

Re: Vg20 finally underway
Hi, When I built my boat AD14 I had the same problems understanding the idea of the centreboard keel installation in its case. Jaques Mertens gave me the assurance that I will never ever have to remove the sleeve. The advantage of the sleeve is that it is nearly touching the inside of the centreboar...
