2014 Aspen Calendar & Events

Aspen C111 Tooling Update

Tooling is progressing, on schedule and on budget. The hull plug is completely faired at this point and we have begun the � nal sanding to bring all the surfaces to a mirror like surface. This means lots of sanding! Working our way through 220, 420, 600, 800, 1,000, 1,200, then to a � nal bu� and polish with 2,000 and 3,000 grit compounds. The entire hull will have a super hard mirror like � nish which we will then wax 7 times before laying up the hull mold on top of the plug. The hull mold will be completed in late April. Meanwhile, the C111 deck plug is beginning to take shape. TJI � oor joists, which support the plug have been placed, and cutting/assembly will begin next week. New Features- from owner request & design review.

•Longer Hard Top over aft cockpit; the extra 2 feet will provide more shade and rain protection.•Extra large Hull side Port lights; more light and ventilation•3 Frosted glass sky lights for natural light over traditionally dark areas in boats; each head and guest state-room.•OPTIONAL: Power Sun Roof on Sedan Model
