We have a treat for you with our newest episode - and the great news that our Methacrylate has arrived! Now this means we can permanently bond our hull pieces together!

CATAMARAN BUILD – We Could Have Done This Better (MJ Sailing – Ep 185.1)

In Part 1 of this episode, Matt and I focus once more on bulkheads number 4 and 5. Now that we've cut out the areas where the doors will be, we need to go back and add a little strength. This comes in the form of adding three sheets of fiberglass to the tops of the bulkheads - two of the 0-90...

CATAMARAN BUILD – Routing Perfectly Matching Bulkhead Doors (MJ Sailing – Ep 184)

With our MDF board properly measured and cut, we can now transfer that to our bulkheads to cut out three perfectly matching doors.

CATAMARAN BUILD – Is This Just As Good As the Moulded Bridge Deck? (MJ Sailing – Ep 182)

We spend three more days working to get it back to the one piece it was when it was originally moulded in Vietnam. The underside of the hull went surprisingly easy, but then we had to deal with keeping the upswing even across both sides as we bond it together with our thickened vinyl ester. All ...

CATAMARAN BUILD – Bonding Our Bridge Deck BACK TOGETHER! (MJ Sailing – Ep 181)
