Acorn to Arabella – Journey of a Wooden Boat – Episode 26: Moving a 4.5 ton keel – Acorn to Arabella

It took us about three days to move the keel out of the ground and into the boathouse. No easy task moving an object that heavy. It’s great to know that we now have our keel and it is sitting where it needs to be in the boathouse. Next we’ll need to fair it, flatten and shape the wood keel and then we can start bolting things together.

Paying forward the shoutout we received from Ruth and Garett at Salt and Tar (check out their channel if you haven’t already), we’d like to mention another channel that we appreciate. Building Brupeg. They are refitting their 57ft steel boat for polar expeditions! Check them out and give them a sub if you like what you see.

One more thing, the music in the middle of this video was sent to us by one of our viewer Nate Akers and is called First Spring Day.

(The other two songs are Inumery and Gone Tomorrow by Jimmy Wahlsteen from Epidemic Sound)

Acorn to Arabella is a boat building project taking place in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve and Alix started as amateur boat builders building their own 38′ wooden boat in their backyard: designer William Atkin’s Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel’s gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and beyond—sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project will continue well past launch, when they will travel and learn to cruise aboard the boat that they’ve built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva.
