Are you ready to make a change when required, if not , boat building may not be for you. This 12.7 mtr Catamaran Build is really taking shape. Now that I know a little bit more about the function of this Catamaran's system, I am forced to modify a major st...
After the high of raising and sailing with our mainsail it was hard to follow. Our buddy, Hoffa, convinced us we needed to take a more legit break and come visit him on the island of Catalina that he now calls home.
Thanks for watching everyone!

It's beginning to look a bit like a boat! The temporary "male plug" frames are installed on the strong back. But first the strong back has to be tweaked and then the frames are leveled to the designed waterline. The final step is to align them to the cente...
I find myself in some bizarre positions as I complete certain sections and this week I find myself Jammed in the forepeak completing the main structure of the crash bulkhead and the bow structure is now complete awaiting the position of the deck part that ...
Chris has been tinkering on engines, cars, and boats since he was a kid and has been refining his skills every since! When our friends Baron and Heather asked if he would be interested in building them a NEW bowsprit he took the challenge head on and ended...

In this video I build a lofting "table". I then crack on with lofting and building all the frames for the Wave Rover 650. This really was easy to accomplish and I'm hoping that it empowers many others to give this a try when the plans become available in l...
Even small jobs can take an absolute age. The thinking and finally the doing are two very intertwined things and when things don't go as planned in can really make or break your day - That is just boat building.

Bending a sail means securing/rigging a sail to the spars. We get a majority of the lines, shackles, and blocks situated. Garrett hoists the mainsail so many times, trying to beat his reefing times, I lost count. Like a child again the joy is clear. Apolog...
With a near miss from Hurricane Ida, I go on a supply run to an empty lumber yard. Then it's all hands on deck (Mrs. Rover) to build the strong back for the Wave Rover 650 frames.

A boat build is nothing but a complicated series of details, and I get right into the Nitty Gritty of Catamaran Building Detail in this weeks episode. The multitude of projects within this project mount as I drill holes in a perfectly good Catamaran Hull.

Two years after purchase , these brand new Dual Yanmar Engine Units are being installed. 2 x Yanmar 4jh57 Shaft Drive systems will give us the extra propulsion and reliability that sail drives simply cant beat. Shaft drives, reduce maintenance, provide a s...
We unveil the mainsail! Mike did such an amazing job and I’m putting together a tip for him if you’d like to donate you can go here: https://www.paypal.me/saltandtar and just make sure to write a note telling me that’s where you’d like it to go. I ...
Outlining a plan to demould the Catamaran Deck Part is all in this week's video. Revisiting some elements that had long been forgotten and I have come to the conclusion that "The Hard Work Starts Now"

The sugar scoop extension continues as we finish all of the fiberglass work, and start the fairing process on our hurricane damaged Lagoon 450 catamaran. This is a huge upgrade for the L450, as they are built with a very small bottom step, so loading and u...
Getting the Catamaran Deck Flange back to the mould edge to determine the separating line is critical before demoulding. This week I grind the excess laminate and start to think about demoulding mounts to lift the deck out of the mould.

I knew I'd be shooting myself in the foot by saying we'd be leaving the dock in August. Or have I? Mike, our sailmaker, is doing everything he can to finish our sails but with the current state of the world being what it is some things are beyond our contr...
Sharing the fun with someone else is always better than slaving away on your own, and this week my great buddy Jeff finally makes an appearance and gets down and sticky on the cockpit roof and Foredeck hatches. Offering not one , but 2 days of work to help...
David is so wonderful for doing this project for us. It lets in so much light and air and it’s basically done… Sorry for the wind noise in this one my mic broke but the show must go on. Our buddy Hoffa was here to help or distract Garrett I'm not sure ...
Possibly one of the hardest parts of this Catamaran Build has been the Saloon Roof Challenge .Pull out the stops and get er done, I say.

I knew I wanted the old redwood in the herringbone pattern for the tabletop I just had to convince Garrett. Redwood's soft but the stuff we have from my parents' old hot tub is pretty hard and with an epoxy coat on top, it's perfect for the dinette table. ...
A blow to our family holiday plans leaves me with the chance to get a whole lot more boat work done and this week is no exception. Hoards of laminating sees the cockpit mouldings stiff and relatively thin due to the use of Soric Core Mat. Our Sailing Holid...
