  • It's hard work. Especially when you have to do it in your spare time. But I love to see you proceed building it.

    PS. You live in a superb surroundings. I did see pics of the ferry in the mist. Goshhh, beautiful!!!!

  • I would not be able to do this project anywhere else. The resources I have available to me would not be possible anywhere else.

  • there's a lot more to it than I could have thought

  • Tell me about it. I actually thought that deadeyes and lanyards would be less expensive than turnbuckles. Successful boatbuilding requires just the right amount of ignorance and tenacity. Ignorant enough to start the project in the first place and tenacious enough to finish it.

  • Danger! Hot forge, hydraulic press, so many opportunities to cause and injury. Danger!

  • Gypsy and I survived. See the next two videos.

  • It's incredible how things are made manually. We're so used to see things already made in the store and never question how they are made.

    Very interesting !!!
