Last week we promised we would be painting Wilda with the FIRST INTERIOR coat of PRIMER! And we hope we sparked your curiosity to see her new SEXY look! Originally we thought she would be white, but we forgot that the paint we had ordered some time ago was a mix of off white and grey. So, in this e...
In this episode we are taking everything out, emptying the hulls in preparation of a serious round of cleaning and washing, to remove all the dust…. followed by…. NO! this time it isn’t sanding nor fairing! it is painting with primer on the inside! So stay with us to see the progress!
But before we...
Hi everyone! Last week on Building Wilda we redesigned the size of our salon forward hatches, we then reinforced the cutouts with fiberglass and filler and we finished fairing around them on the inside.
As you can imagine, NOW it’s time for some serious Oh Glorious sanding!
This video is about wh...
Hi there!
After last week’s fairing inside the salon on Wilda, after lots of measuring and debating in regards to potentially cutting the whole front of the salon, we made the decision not to cut.
Instead, we decided to install bigger hatches. For that, we had to extend the existing front holes an...
Hello & welcome back to Building Wilda!
In this episode we are moving on and continuing the fun with some sanding and fairing inside the salon. This video might not be the most exciting one to watch, since our progress consists in … sanding and fairing, but stick around if you like the blue colo...

Hello and welcome to our sanding and fairing paradise on Building Wilda!
Last week we started fairing the decks and, as you can imagine, now it’s time for some 'Oh Glorious' sanding… followed by… of course… more fairing and more sanding.
So I am sanding the decks and will continue fairi...
After being away from Wilda for nearly two years, due to covid pandemic, we are back in Australia to continue her refit!
Not long ago, we took down the catamaran cockpit roof, as the previous owner had a different vision for the boat roof. We didn’t like it, so we took the roof down, we made some ch...
Through every refit we have become more familiar with Avocet’s design and layup, touching nearly every inch of the boat in the process, but there was one final piece that was left mostly untouched by us - the mast. We had already done a bit of rig work prior, fabricating all-new chainplates and repl...

(English below)🇫🇷Nos premiers jours en Afrique, en Tanzanie, nous émerveillent. Mais on doit aussi réparer ce problème moteur qui nous enquiquine depuis 2 ans: échappement qui rouille, eau qui rentre, prise d'air qui empêche le moteur de démarrer ( d'où notre arrivée à la voile après nos ...

Summer easterlies and the associated stormy weather at our marina in Kettering, Tasmania had us focusing our attention on the rainy day jobs of sewing, splicing and fitting Mirrool’s lifelines, lazy jacks, lee clothes and sheet bags. As our list and the days grow shorter, this week we talk you throu...
