JAE 45 build (no wood)

[MikeP]

Started a JAE 45 build from plans using composites in place of wood, pretty much the same process except for the mold for a tub and rear ski. Hopefully it doesn't deviate from the wood version to much.

Pitchers are located on the old gallery server.....amazing it is still running!

Thanks for the kind words.

Winter has arrived here this weekend with a foot of snow, I guess it is officially winter building season.

I got quite a bit of work done on the JAE and put up some more pictures of the progress.

Thanks for looking and any comments are welcome.

Nice job!

What's this for?

Terry,

That is used to mold a rear transom with the strut and rudder mounts included. Using CF tow it is very strong and there are no nuts and bolts going through the transom.

Here is a picture of one more complete
