Time to put this Deck Mould repair behind me and move on with the actual layup of the deck. Sorting through the myriad of repairs required has taken a lot of thinking and the final stages are coming up in the next two videos.

Noë has joined us for 2 weeks from Pennsylvania. He worked all 14 days, even when we were ready for a break he motivated us to push. I, personally learned so much from him as he could take the time to explain things to me whereas Garrett is always rushed ...
Future access is critical to important areas of the Catamaran is a must and in this issue a change to the Deck Mould is completed with the addition of an anchor windlass hatch that wasn't in the original boat. Back to basic fibre glassing technique and a ...
Colin Archer designed Norwegian Rescue Boats are a thing of beauty. The oldest, built in 1893, is still sailing today! https://www.colinarcher.no/ Originally, we were going to use dead eyes for our mizzen shrouds (and may still in the future) but are takin...
Getting prepared for the deck gel coat and laminate is a mammoth task with many repairs and modifications. Part 2 of this process is at the stern cockpit region and there is much to do before any polishing can begin. Cutting, grinding, filling , masking, a...
Our only surprise was how quick our prop's zinc disappeared. It's been a year and a half since our last haul out but it seems like it's still too soon to have burned through that donut zinc. This most likely means we'll be adding a grounding plate of some ...
Now I am under cover and sheltered from the wettest season ever, I am been able to take to the repairs required to complete the mould Preparation. Repairing a mould like this is a massive undertaking after 40 years of sitting idle there is dirt, damage, an...
We're weirdos and actually really enjoyed our haul out. It's a great challenge, being a wooden boat, to do it as fast as we can so Rediviva doesn't dry out too much. It felt really good to be back in the swing of serious boat work. Long days felt really go...
Feeling like I left last week's episode in the air, here it is, the final completion of the Catamaran Deck Shelter., not without it's dramas as always, sometimes a bit of intelligence and reading the instruction manual goes a long long way.
Cheers Everyo...
This is a Ruth-less episode... I'm out of town with my niece so Garrett tackles come solo projects AND does all the filming! He focuses on the boat's steerage. He shapes and mounts the rudder cheeks as well as transforms an old tiller, donated by a followe...
A whole new phase begins with this Catamaran Build as I prepare the shelter for the fabrication of the Deck Part. Being frugal this Container shelter is a bit smaller than the deck mould so I was able to save $4000 on this shelter , but there is a couple o...
I know I am risking it but when I suggest working on the Catamaran on the weekends I am really taking my life into my own hands. There is Danger in the air with this video as I nearly crush Janet and damage the module after all that hard work.

Happy 6th anniversary. March 2015 started this build and 2021 brings us not only our main gaff and mizzen boom and gaff but also our sails! In this episode we complete the ruff shape of the first items but it’ll still be a few months before we see sails....
It's been a long time coming and here it is, the deck mould gets the attention it deserves and we reach another Project Milestone. It feel like every week is a milestone of late, but a mould of this size hanging in the air is a very scary site. Have fun, I...
Sometimes it takes a common sense and real life approach to get a a project on track and this week I realise my role in this build. Project Planning a Catamaran Build is a detailed process and after a session with Janet things are set in motion. Completion...

A big week this episode including Gel Coating and heaps of laminating. Fabricating a Catamaran Salon Dinette takes a load of hard work and the first three layers are the crucial beginning to a production part.

Allegra 24 named Freyja. Our buddy's first sailboat. She needs some love and has two major problems; the motor and her companionway leaks. We help Hoffa with one of the two issues. First, though, we had to get all the previous owners' old stuff out and cle...

Before I can build the deck top I have to make sure all of the big ticket items are in place and the huge central piece of the catamaran gets a look in this week. From manhandling an 800kg mould on my own, to days of hand polishing this Dinette Module will...
