    Default PDR sail rig

    thanks, cybernaught, boatmik.

    will try Hyde sail. yes, the sail dimensions are in the plan.

    will be lurking while trying to get my hands on the lumber needed. longest 3/4 i have found so far is 16 feet (never imagined a foot short could be so frustrating) - i intend to use white lauan in lieu of wrc; tangile for hardwood. good price for 5 ply marine at $14. trying to get samples for 3 brands of locally formulated epoxy for testing.

    will get back to the forum if i hit a wall during the build.

    Howdy Agtawagon,

    The Philippines seem to be a bit of an amateur boatbuilding mecca at the moment. So when you get the epoxy samples or track down any materials it would be great if you would put any useful info up here for those who might follow.

    No pressure - but would be good.

    Default materials over here in PI

    I have been in touch with an expat on Cebu island named Ken who wants to build a daysailer for his family. He's just south of Cebu and is planning on starting a small boat building business there. I have asked him for epoxy resin and cloth sources in Cebu that he may be familiar with and I'll pass them along if they pan out.

    FYI Hope to start my PDR next week.
