BUILDING THE FOILS (RUDDER AND CENTREBOARD)

Building the foils is a very satisfying experience and a great result can be achieved with a few basic tools and a little patience.

The Oz PDRacer plans include full size foil templates which make it pretty easy, but if you don't have the confidence, Duck Flat Wooden Boats have a great kit which comprises the laminated boards, with router cuts to the correct profile. It's then a simple task to plane back to the cuts and end up with a perfect set of foils every time.
