G-Force 1500C
(CE Certified) Build
Paul de Preter and Jolanda van der Veen of Tri-Cat Sailing Holidays are building a G-Force 1500C - and are documenting their build meticulously.
Their chosen build method of female molding and vacuum infusion is not the recommended method for amateur construction, however it is an option and these regular video updates of the build are very helpful for gaining a greater understanding of vacuum infusion and how it is done.
It can be tempting to just think "what's one more metre?" however the addition of one metre of waterline length equates to an enormous increase in interior space and build hours, so choose something that suits your needs and budget most comfortably.
When budgeting rather allow a safety margin for any unexpected costs, as there are bound to be a few.
Choosing between designs, especially around a similar length can be tough. Our design comparison table is a helpful tool that lets you easily identify the small (but extremely important) differences between our design ranges and individual designs.
