Plan Micro CC Sail


The following are actual pages of the plans, intended to provide a clear understanding of the build process.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The detail of the folding mast assembly. There are options defined on the plans, if you wish to use a larger sail.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is where exacting work is required, as the mast sections must mate together precisely.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And this is the finished product. I chose a natural finish for the mast, very nautical.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Design of the rudder and tiller assemblies. Builder options are encouraged with these components, as sailing can be very personal, and rudder size and depth, as well as tiller type can affect the overall experience. 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Making a kick-up rudder can be involved. I have tried to keep it simple by cutting the parts from a common sheet of 1/2" plywood. I even defined the cut sequence to make it fool proof. The plans do offer further detail.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can see, progress has been made. Here the completed rudder has been mated to it's mount on the transom of the hull. Again, builder options are recommended for the final configuration, especially regarding the tiller type. 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Of course, the sail is an integral part of the overall design, and this one is easy to make from a 6' x 8' tarp. The grade and quality of the tarp can vary, but it's small size limits the differences in a positive way.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The completed sail raised high. Now is the time to construct the boom and select the associated hardware.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's the little things that can confuse a build. It was critical in the design phase that all sailing components must fit in the forward hull module during transport. These pictures offer proof of that the design goals were realized.
