How have you found the build so far? I've looked at the bearospace boats and like them a lot. Having watched the YouTube videos he's either extremely talented builder who makes it look easier than it is. Or it really is that easy and he's a very very talented designer.

Hi JohnC
I’ve built Emma and flyer from bearospace


Emma was built during lock down, using  plywood etc from B&Q. Used west epoxy to join the parts together.


Really enjoyable to build and sail. Worth the effort and not difficult.

Thanks, I'm wanting to build a large sailboat, so I will strongly consider the bearospace designs.


Cheers
Jon
