We are John and Selena on sailing yacht Betwixt, homebuilt 35 ft steel and wood ketch, maiden voyage from South Africa. John built our boat in Johannesburg, launched her in Richards Bay. Our adventure began in March 2024.
With much calculated pushing and pulling with ratchets and jacks, the fully welded steel hull is rolled over on to its side. This is the position for the next step of sandblasting the steel clean in preparation for painting.
