Turning over the hull I want to accomplish by using two large rings built around the hull.
Each ring is built from three segments of plywood. The ring segments are cold molded from three layer of 6mm plywood strips with 150 mm width.
This blog will take you along the different steps of building a 23 foot dropkeel sailboat. The DIDI 23 is one of the available designs for the amateur builder designed by Dudley Dix. The boat is built as a radius chine trailer sailer from plywood with bulb dropkeel.
