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.

Shear capping strip

The joint between the hull and deck on the shear first needs to be planed flat to the shear plank. A 12 mm plywood capping must then be glued onto this flat surface and finally planed round and fair to the shear curve.
