Salt & Tar: Ep.135- Inspired by Norwegian Rescue Boats
Colin Archer designed Norwegian Rescue Boats are a thing of beauty. The oldest, built in 1893, is still sailing today! Originally, we were going to use dead eyes for our mizzen shrouds (and may still in the future) but are taking inspiration from a boat we've looked up to for years and rigging...

Salt & Tar: Ep.134- Weekend Special
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 sort to isolate our batt...

Salt & Tar: Ep.133- Routine Haul Out #1
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 good. Getting to the dock under...

A whole new phase begins with this Catamaran Build as I prepare the shelter for the fabrication of the Deck Part.

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 certainly did not this week. Rossco ...
