I was supposed to finish the last bits and pieces, and do the sea trials last year. Unfortunately due to medical problems of my youngest daughter this had to wait. I am looking at going back to Durban later this year to finish up and finally go sailing :)
Great you are making good progress on your boat!

Best regards!
