Introduction

"If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea"
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

With that in mind one may think that anybody with a passion for the sea can build an ocean going yacht. But be warned! It is not something that can be taken lightly. It takes time and dedication.This project was started in 2004 with the purchase of plans for the Didi 34. Although almost finished, it is still ongoing.

Hatch frames

The deck hatches are to be mounted on a flat surface. Therefore I had to make frames with a curved edge on the one side and a flat edge on the other. I made a jig using a long batten with a length similar to the radius of the deck crown to cut the curved sides of the timber with a router.
