Follow the build of an Alan Pape designed beauty as she slowly comes together under the watchful eye of builder and Skipper Dave Denning and his crew.

Out of this chaos of timber pieces - we hope to be borne a mast!! On the right is the final scarph of the side pieces - 7.5 " x 2"...... x 65 feet!
This is a rough sawn scarph prior to surface routing in the scarphing jig - which makes a perfect scarph.
Next step is to plane and taper the fore, aft, and side pieces in their full lengths - ready to assemble the main mast
