Cape 26 build update 🚨

Work is underway on the tooling for the foils. The plugs for the rudder and keel fin have been machined from tooling board, and we're currently fairing and dimensionally checking all components for accuracy before starting mould production.

Both foils will be manufactured in carbon, with the keel fin produced using a similar process to the Cape 31.
