140L Windfoil

Did the hull with 140gsm Biax. I am happy with how it came out with the weight at 7.8kg and I still need to do the deck.

What is a good/acceptable weight for a 140/150L?

Can the pros please tell me how to finish the last stages to get it smoothly without adding too much weight.  I normally smear a microballoon resin paste and sand it down as much as possible.  Then 2k auto paint.Is this correct?


A fait la coque avec Biax 140gsm. Je suis heureux de la façon dont il est sorti avec un poids de 7,8 kg et je dois encore faire le pont. :non:

Qu'est-ce qu'un poids bon / acceptable pour un 140 / 150L?

Les pros peuvent-ils me dire comment terminer les dernières étapes pour le faire en douceur sans ajouter trop de poids. Normalement, je frotte une pâte de résine microballon et je la ponce autant que possible. Puis peinture auto 2k.Est-ce correct?

Finished!

Super il ne reste plus qu'à tester ! 

Quel poids final tu obtiens? et je ne vois pas le boitier PDM tu ne l'as pas oublié j'espère?  

Tu nous feras un topo après essai ça fait toujours rêver 

bon boulot en tous les cas

You will make us a topo after test it is always dream

Hi Pat


Its 9.9kgs .... sadly I realised too late that nobody uses PVC for the footstrap inserts .... I added way too much there I think   . Oh well, so I learn. I would have liked to be around 8.5kg (I think OK for a 140-150L)?  


I've opened the mast and added no-slip so no worries there.

RE OK 

C'est une grosse bête donc dificile de faire à 8kg 
mais la prochaine sera mieux 
bon envol 

Pat

Congratulations Dar, really well done, with nice colors and graphics !

So I got to test my board on Friday and I must say it was a resounding success. I had a few really long runs on my starboard tack the port side was not very comfortable at all. I swam a lot I must say that the sensation is unique to be flying above the chop like that. I think I might just get hooked!


Unfortunately the foil was adapted from a kitefoil so I had to make a few experimental fuselages to do the job. I bent 2 fuselages in 2 sessions.







The fuselage is just in front of the mast.
