Construction of the Boat I (II, III, IV)


Transport of the trimaran from the Horray-building to the tent.

The trimaran was built up to now on the first floor of the Horray-building which belongs to the Fachhochschule Furtwangen. It was on Dezember 8 1997, when the parts of the boat (hulls, cross connections) were brought to the tent with a car-crane.



One of the greatest difficulties was to manoeuvre the hull through the opening in the first floor which was specially created for this purpose. The hull was lifted up and pushed outwards. When the boat arrived outside on the stage the car-crane was used.

When the parts reached the ground the cross connection were mounted on the hull. This wouldn't have been possible later in the tent. Employees moved the trimaran into the tent where the work will be finished in the next weeks. During the first days of January follows the transport with the helicopter to the Rhine.
