Kep's builds

[brad nichols]

The 310 that Bob sent me from ML Boats was a change of pace and is going good. Check it out in the electric forum and then it will be on to a T3 that is going to France so that will be interesting and another JAE 45 that is going to Calgary as Kevin had a misshap with his. The cement blocks that is the perimeter of their pond are not very forgiving, they need a safety barrier. And then who knows what? Maybe a chance to work on my own?

Thanks for the encouragement

Brad

This T3 is going to France. Laser cut kit by Jeff Ross with permission from Niklas. Good fitting.

Hey Chris some photo's of your boat. 1 coat of epoxy on the tub and finished building the sponsons so it will be time to start the set-up soon.

 

[christophe]

Hey Chris just a photo update of your boat and idea for boat stand. Sponsons are done so I'll get the motor and drive line in this week and the cowl made then just another coat of epoxy on the tub and sand out so I am hoping to to ship mid to late next week. What do you think of the stand side? It would be 3/8" ply with dowel cross pieces and a stand up piece for the rear of the boat.

Hi Brad, The stand seems good, I am looking forward to receive my boat ... my birthday is December 8 !!! The KEP'S is my gift. But takes the time you need .. I will be racing qualifying for the 2018 world championships in France with this boat then races the world championships with. I also have a Blackjack 21 i love that boat.

Thank's for the photos update. Good work.

Happy Birthday Chris!! Here are some more photo's, the last I will take so you will have to do updates on your progress. I will go to the post office and find out what the shipping will be as the box got bigger and heavier with extra sponsons and stand. I forgot to put plans and decals inside the bow but will attach a large envolope to the box with them in it. If the plans being folded is not acceptable let me know and I will have to cut the box open and put them inside but they may still get wrinkled.
