Working moments and challenges...

Huge thank you to those who were "early birds" supporting my campaign at Indiegogo.com

Thank your for contributions and support

The sea is an inspiration also in my art working. I've decided to collect some of my drawings and sketches in a book that is very handy for every pocket or bag.
This is my way to say thank you for your contributions and support.
You can also choose DVD with Cassiopeia building process or a unique thank you postcard.

 


 




 

  

Morje me navdihuje tudi pri risanju in slikanju. Nekaj risb in oljnih platen preteklih let sem zbral skupaj in nastala je tale knjižica, ki je priročna tudi kot beležnica.  

Knjižico posvečam vsem ljubiteljem morja in jadrnic, prav posebno pa se zahvaljujem tistim, ki ste z dejanji izkazali podporo in pripomogli k uresničitvi mojih sanj.

Wellcome to Indiegogo campaign WOODEN BOAT CASSIOPEIA – DAN POLJSAK, age 18



I can't wait for the day to finish Cassiopeia and sail away to discover new horizons.
Peers, sea lovers and sailing boat enthusiasts follow my story and I decided to raise funds through global crowdfunding engine Indiegogo.com to finish Cassiopeia.
You can find and support my campaign at

Cassiopeia building process, 2nd stage


 
 I put around 2000 hours of my spare time and I am halfway through the works. The boat hull is almost ready, another 2000 work hours are needed. I have enough will and courage to finish the boat but my main problem is funding . Therefore I’ve decided to promote my project at Indigogo.com. I believe this is the right way to collect finances to finish the works. 




I have to buy teak wood for the deck, install the  motor and 2 masts, paint the boat and buy on-board equipment.        
I look forward to all the challenges in front of me and I can't wait for the day to sail away and discover new horizons.
I hope that my story will inspire peers and push them into action. I am convinced that it is worth following your deepest desires.

Next challenge - production of masts

I had to perform 2 months of school practice and I decided to produce  wooden masts for Cassiopeia as the main task. The challenge was qu...
