After 9 years of building this beauty in their backyard, she is now nearly ready to sail. Built from Mahogany and clincer-built.

 

 

 

 

 

Design No 449 

 

Another do it yourself project. This is a bit more manageable and can be done in a garage.

 

 

 

 

Design 531 Jager 40

The hull is built at Paul Dijkstra Composites. She is now at Jachtwerf Loedeman and close to completion. She will be motored to the rigger wherafter the sails can be measured and made. Simultaniously Loedeman will do the last finish.

  

 

 

 

 

 Design 534 Jager 41

 At Koopmans Kasko's Jager 41 is under construction.

Hatches and deck equipment are fitted in close consultation with the owner who lives far away. A 1:1 print is used here to locate the exact hatch opening as on the last drawing.

 

Design No 527

 No 527, a 16 m sail yacht with swingkeel is also under construction at Jachtwerf Loedeman.

First idea above and made as below. The chart table is at the workshop

 

Guest cabin as designed above and as made below.

 

Design No 537

Based on a 22 m hull there will be a new deck, a positive transom and two masts instead of one. Also the draft will go down with a new keel and rudder.

The first calculations are made to show differences in stability and speed.

 

 

 

 

 

No 533 in Lelystad

 

No 533 has arrived in Lelystad where the owner will make the interior.

 

 

 

Our Jager is ready for the season. We made a trip to Hindeloopen where we visited Aluboot for some refit projects. A good excuse for a sail.
