The mass of foam core in a Catamaran Deck takes a lot of working out to reach the desired outcome of strength, stiffness and structure and this week the deck companionway are shaped and I apply my own method of Integrating Foam Core into the window inserts and supports. A planned quick break celebra...
Boat building with modern composites requires an understanding of the chemistry , the process, and the engineering to get the best result. As winter hits the Southern Hemisphere, I am required to adjust the catalysing to suit the climate, the ability of the worker, and improving the workflow in a ma...
Boat building is a complicated process, and this boat build seems doubly so!
In our first Ruby Rose 2 video we look at the whole boat building process surrounding hull number 1. Vacuum infusion is a complicated process and following the construction of the plug then the mould, it can all begin
6,000...
In preparation for our bulkheads to get placed in, there are five areas we need to lay down unidirectional fiberglass, spanning from one hull to the other.
We hope you enjoy!
Much love from Annapolis!

We're AMOST to the stage where we can begin putting in our bulkheads!! But we have just a few preparatory steps before we can get there.
Although the bulkhead placements were provided by Max Cruise when we received the hull, we've made a few small tweaks, and now we need to go through a...

Now that we have bonded the bridge deck together, it's time to glass all 50 feet of the inside seam. There's multiple steps involved, including making sure all parts of the seam which did not have our methacrylate bondin...

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!
Before we get ourselves to the point of no return though, we need to figure out a way to suspend the panels to clean them up as ...
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...
With our MDF board properly measured and cut, we can now transfer that to our bulkheads to cut out three perfectly matching doors.
The two of us take the measurements on the bulkheads themselves to find the centerline - and from there, where the doors will sit at each end. Screwing the template in...
This week we move onto work with our bulkheads and run into one area that has us scratching our heads.

When we first bought the components for our build, we were sure we'd be using dual outboards for propulsion. But, now we've found ourselves with a set of diesel engines. The more we started researching, t...

Which did we choose, the Schionning Arrow 1360? Or the Max Cruise 42 SC?
After much debate, we finally make the decision of which catamaran we're going to build, beginning this December.
For more information, take a look at both of our choices!

Figuring out who does what tasks is very important to keeping everyone happy while living aboard a sailboat. For the majority of the summer, I (Dana) have been doing all our dishes because Lou has a bad back and hunching over a bucket is not ideal, but it is finally time to change this dynamic. Toda...

The good news is, our boat has been released from lock-down, and we are now able to cruise full time on the coast of England. The bad news is, for all the plans and back-up plans we've been making for the year, we can't seem to achieve any of them.
