Alan Armstrong of Hout Bay, South Africa, built his Argie 15 from a kit supplied by CKD Boats.
The kit arrives from CKD Boats. The panels are pre-cut but held in the sheets by tabs to protect them from damage.

The hull panels being assembled. Alan is using ropes from the roof trusses above as convenient supports to hold the side panels in their correct positions to ease assembly.
|
Hull panels all tied together and ready for glass-taping the joints.
|
Joints taped and seats dry-fitted to check location and fit. The lengths of wood between the gunwales are to hold the hull open.
|
Alan has added side seats between the midship and aft seats for better sailing comfort. Here you can see the framing that he used.
|
The project almost complete, with the rig being fitted and checked.
