The Long To-Do List Before Sailing North – Episode 301 – Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat

Steve and Robin are eager to set sail for Newfoundland later this year. However, before they sail north on their long journey to Canada, there are a few important to-dos that need to be addressed to ensure smooth sailing—and, of course, a few creature comforts.

In this episode, Steve and Robin run through their to-do list and explain the work that needs to get done before they can safely sail Arabella to Newfoundland. Luckily, the list of must-dos isn’t too bad. Steve needs to wrap up some maintenance work on the deck, reconfigure the wake speed and swap out the alternator, install the radar, sonar, and AIS systems, and complete a few other tasks. Robin’s honey-do list includes installing the hot water heater, optimizing the food storage area, and hooking up shore power. It’s all possible-ish.

It’s a tough balance finishing projects on the boat, getting work done, spending time with family, finding time to work out, and keeping Akiva entertained. But there are adventures to be had, so let’s get to work!

Acorn to Arabella started as a wooden boat building project in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve began the journey as an amateur wooden boat builder crafting a 38′ wooden sailboat in his 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 now sailing the boat—sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that traditional wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project continues beyond the boat shop, as Steve and crew travel and learn to cruise aboard the handmade wooden boat that they’ve built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva.
