Hula Girl Update

/in /by

All right, we are long overdue on posting an update on the Hula Girl refit project.  Everyone keeps asking how it is going, and all I can say is wow, she’s gonna be sweet.  Here’s a look at some of the project thus far:

In the shed, fresh paint, looking like new….

 

Rig being tested in the shop.  That’s a one piece, molded
carbon mast from the spar-smiths at Hall Spars.
Rig detail.  Impressive in their attention to the ‘little things.’
New carbon chainplates being fit.  Gilles and Denis at
GC Composites are doing a fantastic job.
Chainplates being located on the deck level
This is just scratching the surface of the projects which have been tackling.  The boat is looking amazing and will be rolling out of the shed and getting the keel put back on shortly.  Stay posted for more details!
Even though the 2013 Transpac is sold out, we have space in the 2014 San Diego to Puerto Vallarta Race and the 2014 Pacific Cup from San Francisco to Hawaii.
All the best,
Wayne Zittel and the J World Team
