Andy Stephenson Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Here's the original instruction sheet... I've just finished restoring my 44 year old Acrowot and had to go diving into the archives to check the CG earlier today. I always ran my GG 1/4" behind the most rearward point recommended at 3 3/4" this gave me the performance I was after and this is where it still is after stripping Solartex then glassing and painting.

Low pass Pete Posted November 8, 2020 Author Share Posted November 8, 2020 Thanks to all for all your fantastic replies. Andy that is a super refurb job. Love the colour scheme. I have never used glass as a covering. Keep safe everyone and happy building one and all. Best Regards Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
