Acorn to Arabella - Journey of a Wooden Boat - Episode 91: We Broke a Plank
December 06, 2019 by Acorn To Arabella | Language: EN Play Time: 00:00:23:15 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
Well… we broke a plank.
No worries though. We got it fixed and back on the boat. That’s how we roll here… with the punches and not against them. We got a lesson in how far you can push a plank to bend and from now on will know what we can and can’t do in that instance.
The are a of the stern where we are now planking has a lot more twist than in most other sections, and although we managed to get the plank in place, we then started hearing some crackling noises. So, Steve worked on replacing and re-scarfing that end of the plank so we could work on getting it back on the boat with only a minimal setback. We are then going to be steaming in the places which require an inordinate amount of twist. So there is that to look forward to in the coming episodes!
Remember folks! Molehills, not mountains!

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.
