I have started casting triangle ballast bars. Each about 20Kg. Using a three ring LPG gas burner for heat. Works well under Geoff's crucible. All very easily managed.

Spindrift's Launching - 3rd ~ 4th December.
There is a load of photos here plus an interesting video. Thanks to Doug and Melva for the extra photos. https://youtu.be/_7gGy3e9G7g
If you want the job done well get Exclisive Boat Haulage. It was a reasonably difficult job getting Spindrift onto the trailer all the time hampered by a narrow lane, no turning room and swales, blackberrys and of course a 3.1 metre wide, long trailer. 3.5 hoours later It was ready to go.
After launching the next day we found that all systems work as planned. Now just need 1000Kg of ballast.
Happy to be in the water in Tutukaka Marina on D31.
