Thanks tuna!

Very neat work. Makes me want to have a sailboat again and be in a warmer place. The water is too hard for sailing a boat and not thick enough yet for an iceboat.
-
right on Bryan one's on the way so thanks for that! Looking forward to using it in the field and shop!
-
Thanks Dave R!
You're welcome Joe. I had to buy a new USB-C dock to connect to my older monitors, so you might consider that as well. USB-C in to dual Display Port out. Plus extra USB ports. Alogic is who makes mine. About $80 compared to other at $100+. I think they make the same for HDMI out as well.

Aft deck block out complete. Started on some detailing.
Reworked the aft deck canopy yet one more time. I did not like the outboard windshield pillar angles. Too bug-eyed.
-
Steady progress Good show
-
Thanks tuna!
Cleaning up and beginning detailing. Pipe Along Path for wheel. The rest is just shape and then Push/Pull. The canopy support beam was Follow Me tool using a path line made by Tools On Surface. It needs some clean up where it joins the hull.
-
Some close-ups.
-
Cleaning up and adding more details. Upper cabin windows were too high. Mast swivel completed. Radar bridge created. Other details re-proportioned.
-
Roughing in the forward areas. At this point, all the main structures are built.
-
You be launching her soon matey!
Bryan, what's that forward boom? Don't think I've ever seen one on any boat.
-
Lines off form checking.
-
Wow check out the architects website! Some beautiful designs!

That's for a jib sail. Sometimes the jib sail is connected to the main mast and sometimes it's not. And sometimes it's connected to the mainsail boom and sometimes it's not. This design, from the plans, shows it connected to both. (I had to look this up)
-
yeah I think this is the same design as yours and it has that boom out front.

Yep. Shuttleworth seems to be a name associated with very nice boats. I did not know this when I picked it. It just looked nice and the plans were available for free.
-
where do you get the plans? Got a link?

https://www.nauticexpo.com/prod/pedigree-cats/product-20671-478489.htmlThat's it exactly. The Aero.
Being my first boat, I'm taking some, uh, liberties with the design.

Google search, plans for Shuttleworth Aero.
What you see in my posts are all I could find. Each image had to be scaled when imported.

More detailing and proportion change of some objects. And example was the radar bridge was too tall.
Hull sections committed and exploded to join all pieces in order to create waterline paint stripe.
Fore-deck and helm details next and rigging for very last.
