As we steam in Arabella's frames we have now reached the aft section of the build and need to cut the rabbet up the sides of the stern posts to determine where our frame sockets should land. Once cut we spend a day steaming in frames with a couple snags along the way.

Arabella has 70 frames. That's a fair amount of steaming. So, we thought it would be interesting to show what a full day of steaming looks like. Not to mention, who can get tired of watching those timbers bend like that?

Yep, we are making our own square shanked copper rivets for Arabella. Not only are they bigger than the biggest commercially available rivet we could find, it is also saving us thousands of dollars!
We also wanted to address some concerns people had with our other fasteners. Namely the bronze scre...
The long process of sheathing continues into August with breaks out to a scrap yard and a river cruise to celebrate my birthday. We also weld the top pieces of the chainplates that the dead eyes will attach to at Rolf's shop with the sound of the racetrack just outside his back door. Enjoy!

Winter is coming and there is always something to do. We worked on getting Victoria buttoned up for the winter and hosted a middle school class for a field trip. With all that out of the way and frames well sanded and oiled, it was time to bed and screw in the frames.

We were recently gifted a new-to us dinghy that was designed by Lyle Hess, the same man who designed some of our favorite boats including the Bristol Channel Cutter and the Fatty Knees. Our Dinghy is a Dover Dory, the predecessor to the Fatty Knees (which means she's old!) No boat is project-le...
