In this video, which takes place back in early to mid November, we're still trying to close ...
This week, we find ourselves all over the place as we jump around from one small project to the next.
First we have the side decks brought in with the help from a few of the guys around the yard, and once all the protective plastic is removed, it makes su...
My arms have gotten bruised and banged up from all our test fits with the cockpit seats - but now it's time to permanently bond them down!
We start the episode responding to a popular question of "When are the engines going in?" Then Matt does some trimm...
In this week's episode, we want to keep rolling with getting as many of our molded pieces in as possible, to try and get the boat to a lockup stage before winter. After looking back to a few weeks ago when we began work on the water tanks, we then jump ba...
After 10 days of preparations, the transom is finally ready to get permanently bonded on.
Well...this is the moment we'd been waiting for. There were a few more days of odd jobs before it was ready, especially considering that bulkhead 9 had never been b...
With only 4 people, we manage to lift our 25 ft, 300 pound transom into place.
In this week's episode, we focus on not only lifting the transom to get it up to the bridge deck, but find what's necessary to get it to, more or less, fit like a glove.
We ha...
We're on days 4 and 5 of having Ryan and Burt come to help us, and we are just knocking all kinds of projects out!
After having bonded the sill on the bridge deck, we can then, finally, remove the supports from underneath the boat. What it also allows us ...
Let's start distracting from that green foam, by adding shiny molded pieces to the build.
After last week's boat show feature, we're now jumping back in a time a few weeks to late September, where Matt and I begin the first step of what is going to help ...
We're stepping foot on multiple million dollar yachts - and taking all their great ideas!!
Annapolis Boat Show 2021 is in full swing, and just like any other visitor, Matt and I are there to talk to vendors and tour all the boats we wish we could claim ...
We work on putting the final floor into The Hull Fame, and reinforce the area around our chainplates - which will then allow us to adhere all the bulkheads to the hull sides.
This week's episode has us putting the new floor in for what will be our sail lo...
In order to give ourselves a larger engine bed and plenty of room to work, we're eating into our storage space by moving the bulkhead forward.
We find ourselves doing more odd jobs lately, which only take a few minutes here and there, but always mean we'r...
Before our last two bulkheads go in, we need to make sure they sit in their EXACT place, as there is no margin of error.
Because the large transom piece we received with our second container sits as a cap over these two bulkheads, we need to make sure eac...
This week we step back in time and cover a few projects we did between getting the soles down - including adding the forward webbing to our bridge deck, which will eventually become our water tanks.
One of the main things, was glassing down the forward we...
After weeks of on and off prepping our floors, we put the very first one down, situated in our guest bunk.
*Prepping foam floor - filmed on August 20
*Bonding floor to webbing - filmed on August 31
*Bonding floor to hull side - filmed on September 01
...
Floors under your feet just make life .... easier. So we figured it was high time we get working on ours. Before we can even think about laying them down though, there's a number of steps we need to go through first to prep the area.
Through the plans g...
Last week you watched us bond the starboard hull side on - and the procedure looked seamless - but a lot went into it beforehand.

We hope you enjoy!!
Much love from...
Wow, can you believe we are hitting episode 200??!! It seems like just a few weeks ago that I started shyly picking up a camera as we were in the middle of the aluminum boat refit - not sure what I would say or if anyone would find it worth watching. But...
We're building our boat with vinyl ester resin - and they're OUT nationwide!!
This week's video is a smattering of a few different things, trying to catch up from when we were preparing the Pacemaker to launch (late June) to starting work on the floors of...
The clock is running, and we have 2 hours to unload all the remaining components for our boat!! Plus, we get to do it on one of the hottest days of the year, which is quite a change from the windchills we experienced during the first container unload.
Lu...
After adding reinforcements to Bulkhead 6 last week, this time we get it in place and find out exactly how large our cockpit is going to be.
We hope you enjoy!
Much love from Annapolis!

It's time to work on the bulkhead which separates our salon and cockpit, and we're going all out on extra fiberglass re-enforcements.
Although *both* sides will get beefed up a little bit, in this episode we focus on the inner facing side of the bulkhead,...
We're surrounded by big bulkheads, and now it's time to get the first one glassed in to the bridge deck.
We do a little jumping around in this episode, giving features to three of our biggest bulkheads. Matt does a quick explanation of #6, which will lea...
The BIG bulkheads are going in!! And now we have walls and doors that make up the shower in our owner's hull.
This next episode I love for two reasons. One, is I finally got around to adding a BUNCH of images and renders for you to see how the boat sho...
