an incomparable experience


BERNARDA's BROTHER


After a pregnancy lasting from dec 2004 to june 2005 Bernarda's little brother was born:
BERNARDO 14 feet !!!


here's it , with provisional sails


and with the incredible final ones


Bernardo is a "Javelin" class
it's a 14 feet australian skiff .
Is should be rigged with a mast 5 feet taller than this one . And should have a 7 feet bowsprit and a huge jennaker ....
But I must sail it by myself alone and then I had to downsize everything



here's the only picture where the two little brothers are shown together:



Thank to all the guys who freely shared their knowledges and experiences .
And a very special thank to my splendid wife who allowed me to make havoc of our living room as can see in these pages.

I developed the complete boat drawings as dwg files (for autocad and similar programs.
