We've finished up with the port side bulwark planking and now to turn our attention to Rediviva's masts... Unfortunately with all the distraction of building the boat our masts we're not taken care of. Our mizzen developed a kink at one end so now our original main is the mizzen and w...
This episode takes you through some typical work days; wake up, coffee, work on the boat, maybe a supply run, work on the boat, try not to forget to eat lunch, then clean up, sleep, dream about working on the boat. This is boat life. It'll be nice when we get to squeeze some sailing in there ;)...
It's time to start gluing stuff in, this week the Port Side Hull bulkheads finally find a home, not without a monumental effort of cleaning and prepping. Our deck mould gets a little bit of attention and I deal with the last of summer in the only way I know how, by whinging about it. Have fun g...

Can you use products from Home Depot (or any local hardware store) on a boat? From what we've found, the answer is "it depends." The reason why people cringe when you say you're getting supplies from Home Depot for your boat is that there's an assumption that just because it...
