Making New Sails For Batwing





It is time to replace the sails on Batwing. Using techniques developed by fellow junk rigger Arne Kverneland and suggestions from Lloyd Halverson, former owner of Batwing, Ron is deep into the work. The following are pictures of the process in a workroom of a building in Gamboa, graciously provided to us by friends John and Jan (svBambolera), former cruisers, now Panamanians!
