Before the assembly of the yard (installation of the torques) it is necessary to make the daggerboard well which comes in the center of the boat. This one will receive the drift (a steel sheet) and must be reinforced inside with glass fibre (resin impregnated fabric).
Lucas will try this type of material for the first time and discover the implementation (even if he was very well documented before starting). This type of construction requires skills in carpentry, but also in composite materials. The proof.
And despite a perfect study of the plans and a careful implementation, Lucas is not immune to errors. As proof, he made 2 identical flanks of his daggerboard instead of a right and a left flank. This forces him to start a new piece.
