Bo-Jest by Thomas Walli
Innsbruck, Austria

Hi Friends & Boatbuilders,
My BoJest "MINERVA" still growing fast and 90% finished. The interior doubleberth, cabinlockers, galley all engine installation and electric are finished. Now we are on the foredeck-cabinceiling with nice brass bulleyes and the not-easy-to-build mahogany window frames and the door. The complete pilothouse is built in two parts so that we can get out of the workshop, also so that if one day the engine has to come out, we can lift the upper pilothouse construction with an forklift as well the engine. A fine handmade full-around linefender was built in winterttime by www.toplicht.de. Soon we will begin with the paintwork and construction of the trailer. We will keep you informed and in the end, the totalprice and workhours will be included for the next builders.
Yours,
Tom
