Hi there!
After last week’s fairing inside the salon on Wilda, after lots of measuring and debating in regards to potentially cutting the whole front of the salon, we made the decision not to cut.
Instead, we decided to install bigger hatches. For that, we had to extend the existing front holes an...
In this video, I discuss and demonstrate the junk sail design that I will be taking on Wave Rover for her circumnavigation later this Summer. In the second half of the video I present an opportunity for someone to get a small ocean capable boat that is ready and capable to cross the Atlantic this Su...
Just shy of 24 hours of straight sailing we make Bahia Santa Maria. Our last stop before reaching the tip of Baja and the actual tropics where we can fulfill that wish of Garrett’s all those years ago. As we began to anchor I noticed frigate birds were circling all around. It’s been 12 years since G...
It appears everyone in town knew about our poor little yacht being struck by lightning except us. Aussie storms can be vicious, but this year has been particularly severe. Will Interim be ok?, well I am not sure, but I am so glad we weren't on her when she met her maker. Heaps of boat building ...
Hello & welcome back to Building Wilda!
In this episode we are moving on and continuing the fun with some sanding and fairing inside the salon. This video might not be the most exciting one to watch, since our progress consists in … sanding and fairing, but stick around if you like the blue colo...

In this video, she really takes shape with all the all the ring frames installed. I also test the Bluetti AC 200 Max power station ( ) by powering the shop tools for the building of all the ring frames***Benefactors Bulkhead Alert*** There are only 12 spaces left to fill on the bulkhead. Check out ...
A huge week of progress. It is easy to get overwhelmed by the enormity of this Catamaran Build, but occasionally I walk past a section of the boat and just go for it. Priorities aren't everything, clearly, but getting some nice bit and pieces dry fitted is so rewarding and it gives us a massive...
Sorry for the delay! Busy busy week at the boat yard! We start ripping apart and re assembling in this episode and get to enjoy some motoring aboard a 50 foot yacht!
It’s been tough, I’ve had to sell off a lot of my personal possessions to make this work, but the support here has been slowly mak...
It’s time for a break from our fairing and sanding paradise and, for a short while, let’s enjoy some painting instead! This time we got some help from Chris, our professional painter who has the right equipment and skills for the job! So, we taped and masked everything that needed protection from th...
In this video, despite freezing temperatures, and a winter blizard, the cabin sides are installed and the main hatch is drawn up.***Benefactors Bulkhead Alert*** There are only 12 spaces left to fill on the bulkhead. Check out the link below to become a Wave Rover Benefactor.

I have been known to discuss how important tabbing and ensuring the boat is structurally sound, but in this week's video, all modules, walls and cabin soles are joined as one. Important, well, I say "VITAL " to a well-built Catamaran, no compromises. Lots more to come in this issue. ...
Hello and welcome to our sanding and fairing paradise on Building Wilda!
Last week we started fairing the decks and, as you can imagine, now it’s time for some 'Oh Glorious' sanding… followed by… of course… more fairing and more sanding.
So I am sanding the decks and will continue fairi...
In this video, despite freezing temperatures, I scarf the cabin side plywood and sheer stringers. And it's not that difficult. Check out S2E08 Scarfing Lumber and S2E10 scarfing Plywood ***Benefactors Bulkhead Alert*** There are only 12 spaces left to fill on the bulkhead. Check out the li...
In amongst the mayhem of a boat build it is so important to keep moving with major parts to ensure the structure is complete, reducing access, finalising storage and all the while making sure this boat never squeaks. My quest for a quiet boat will never cease.

Our longest leg to date onboard Rediviva. Two days to get to Turtle Bay from San Quintin and we were able to sail a decent chunk of it! We had a great weather window and needing to time the passage of Canal de Dewey during daylight to see fishing pots meant we could chill at 3 knots around Isla Cedr...
Hi there!
In this episode of building Wilda we are introducing our new channel trailer!
Also we are making more progress on our beautiful catamaran and this time it is not only on the roof! We started fairing the decks!
I started by cleaning and sanding the catwalk, while Axel was working on rein...
In this video, I have a friend drop by and we make vertical and horizontal structural epoxy fillets. And it's not that difficult. Check out S2E28 for mixing the fillet material.

You just can't have a big enough engine room and on building this Catamaran, I have made sure that when things get sticky and I need good access to the Yanmar 4jh57 Engines, I can get to every component without having to be a contortionist. So many jobs in the air this week as we forge ahead wi...
In the raw, troughs and crusts, of cruising life. It's always hard to share the low times for fear of judgement. It's also tough to relive the experience through editing. Hind sight being 20/20 you can point out a decision that if you chose different your situation could've been bette...
In this episode of Building Wilda we complete the roof bonding. We used fiberglass & epoxy to reinforce the join.
If you'd like to see the entire roof rebuild, we suggest you to watch the previous episodes as well.
Wilda is a Schionning Wilderness 1340 sailing catamaran. She is being fin...
In this video, I build a beautifully curved beam... and it was simple and easy. I also showcase the BLUETTI AC 200 Max Portable power station. AC200P:
