About two weeks ago now I registered my boat and now I'm almost ready to hang the sails. I would like to have the numbers on the sails before attaching to the...
Hi, I'm a newbi. Just got my kit and have been reading all the tips I can find before jumping in. The class rules state a MINIMUM weight of 10 pounds. 1. Is...
Does any one have a design for a holder that could be used to transport the boat in the trunk of the car. I have a big trunk but would need a stand to hold the...
My philosophy on weight is to keep it as light as you can, down to the minimum of 10 pounds. No more than 6 1/2 pounds in the keel, and make sure you keep it...
Thank You. That is exactly what I needed to know. Maybe I will build everything before the keel and then weight it to match just what I need to finish at 10...
I have no trouble with de-masting my Soling each time I sail her. The mast crane makes it easy to get the necessary pressure back on the shrouds. It takes...

Wow. An extra 6 oz. in the keel and you still weigh in at 10.1. I guess that has to be as close to perfect as one could get. Thanks for sharing that...
can anyone tell me how high the 6.25lbs.shot sit in the keel? can you use bb to replace lead.can keel weight less then 6.25lbs. like 5 lbs. thank you all....
George, could you tell us what servos, batteries (number and type) and receiver you are using? Also, any building tips for keeping the weight so close to 10...

By "keeping the deck flanged"do you mean you fit the deck over the hull? Or does the deck fit down inside the hull. Sorry I have no clue. Can you explain for...
As I recall 6.25 lbs came to about the bottom of the wood. Perhaps someone else has a more precise recollection. There are people who think that once you reach...

my only thoughts are to support your keel and CUP the hull. Are you talking, healing the boat maybe 45 degrees off vertical? You would need to support that...
George is saying that he retains the flange on the deck edge that allows the deck to fit over the hull. That is the way the deck comes in the kit and the...
Great explanation. Now I understand the terminology. Think I am ready to start building. The tips I have gotten here so far are priceless. I looked at the...

I think he's aiming for a "Stowe and go" deal! All up, ready to sail or all up ready to put away, just the same. So the idea is to provide support for the keel...
