From 3D to reality, getting it right

While we have had the entire boat 3d modeled and designed prior to production of our molds there is nothing quite like sitting on the real thing and getting a feel for everything first hand. So at this stage in the development we have a dummy mast in place on our deck, and we hot glue deck hardware in its designed locations. Then, we re-enact the use of the boat going through various scenarios, different sails and different conditions to ‘feel’ how the systems work on a 1:1 scale. This has enabled us to maker small tweaks to hardware placement for the benefit of good ergonomics, and practical use of the 880.
