Gold cup Karo hits the water & rigg details

Today i verified the performance of the new boat. arrived at the pond to find it was full of people fishing and their fishing lines. I moved to the only free spot on the shore, and started sailing. the wind was somewhat gusty with 10-15knots of speed, the water was teribbly choppy. But the boat seems to perform well, despite the missing bowbumper. soon it started to make water due to a porosion hole in the bow, but that was a quick fix.
Anyway here are some crappy phone pictures:
here are some pictures of the 1260cm2 a rigg, wich is good for winds up to 15knots, and makes a really nice shape.
the karo project is still ongoing!
things to do:
-finish the "body work", yellow paint
-build a boat for myself(this one will be skippered by my father)
-build and test the b rigg(a+ and c are allready done and running fine)
-build some more hulls so i can offer them to anyone interested
