Salt & Tar: Episode 66-Companionway
This video is a little different than others in that it involves more of our thought process. As we get closer to “real time” you’ll notice we do things a bit different than most. Sometimes it may seem out of order or odd that we get most projects to near completion then move onto the next one. This is what keeps this dream alive for us. Every day is one step closer to finishing this boat so what does the order matter? What matters is not feeling defeated and letting that stifle progress. If you can’t move on one project there is another one right next to you that also needs to get done. There have been plenty of books written about boatbuilding but each build is unique; especially when you’re a novice. The important thing has always been us, we, and everything else comes second. Garrett and I have so much fun together. There have certainly been times when we’re both about ready to give up but because we have the upmost respect for one another we can’t let the other down. Garrett has motivated me so much throughout this journey and I him. He, and our Patrons, are the main support behind me to switch to weekly videos. I’m not going to lie a little nervous, because I don’t want to let any of you down but sometimes you just have to jump. So thank you all for jumping with us!
