Hi all,

This is my site where I'm uploading news of the construction of my SWAGGIE in Uruguay: http://www.swaggie-uruguay.com.uy/

In the next few days I'll update with new pics of this weekend. Here 's a sample.

Regards,

Hello Luis,

Thanks for the links to your site where one can view the progress on the build out of your Swaggie, the Welsford designed mini cruiser.

Question... Looks like Federico first built a ladder frame. Then the bottom was laid over the additional raised vertical extentions to get the right shape. So how are the frames attached to the inside of the bottom and stay upright if they are not yet connected to each other by the stringers?

Looking forward to the new pictures.

It's simple. The frames fit perfectly to the bottom and are bolted to the keelson and the keel stub.

Best regards.

Luis
