In it's heyday this boat was beautiful. Unfortunately, she's not in such great shape today. This boat needs a complete refit, and totally refitting a 56 foot yacht is a HUGE undertaking that will cost an unimaginable amount of time and money. It's not some...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle we make a quick stop in Roche Harbor on our custom 435 catamaran SV basik before heading into Canada. Come back next week to see us get back to work in preparation for our journey South...see you then!

Completing Arabella's hull is something we are eagerly striving for. With this installment we cross a milestone in that goal. All of Arabella's frames that can currently go in, are finally installed. Once we have completed the planking process, the last...
This boat is WEIRD, but in a good way! We think this she offers a lot of "big boat" features in a small package. It's construction, design, and the Pacific Seacraft track record of building high quality boats mean that you can take this boat anywhere you'd...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle we make progress on our custom 435 catamaran SV basik as we travel from Lopez Island to San Juan Island. Mother nature changes our departure plans but we take full advantage of this beautiful area. Come back next...
In last week's episode, we went into detail about how we are fabricating the forward sawn floors. From how we are taking measurements using tick sticks and a template to how we are cutting our rolling bevel down the frames without a ship's saw.
In this ep...

We've done steam bent frames for the majority of Arabella, now, in the stem and the stern, it's time to make some sawn frames.
Where the bow and stern come in to the centerline timbers, the shape of the hull is fairly sharp. Steam bending frames in these ...
The Hans Christian 33 and 41 are two of my all-time favorite boats because they are pure. They are true heavy-displacement cruising vessels and make no compromises. They were expertly designed, built, and laid out for a cruising couple or small family, and...
We were pleasantly surprised with this boat. She is a 2008 custom Gorbon 53' deck salon, built in Turkey for over 1.5 million dollars. She still feels like a million dollar yacht today, but she costs MUCH less to purchase now.
The dual helms, deck salon,...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle we install our ground tackle on our custom 435 catamaran SV basik and leave the dock for a nearby anchorage. At anchor we finish up our solar installation and have a bit of payback fun. Come back next week to se...
Planking has been a very fun challenge though a bit of a challenge it has been. Learning to fit the oak planks to each other has its intricacies. We need to make sure the plank fits well fore and aft but also that the bevels match so that we can put in a...

This week's video is a bit of a hodge-podge as boat projects were interrupted by Hurricane Dorian Storm preps. A little less organized than usual, so bear with us.

It was truly a whirlwind of a week! 4 days, 10 races and a few fix-its in between we were ex...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle. it's finally happened! We are officially back in the water and the crew of sv bāsik couldn't be happier. After the past few months on the hard, our work is rewarded with a no drama relaunch...that means no le...
With all the bent frames installed in Arabella and all the bronze floors in place, we can now work on installing the sole beams. The sole beams are the members that will span from frame to frame and support the cabin sole inside of Arabella.
We are insta...

We're back to working on Freebie, but we've got to be a little creative and choose our projects wisely because until the construction of the home she's docked behind is finished, we have limited access. We chose to work on the new companionway stairs becau...
This boat was built in 1986 as a mobile sawmill for harvesting exotic woods in remote locations. It was then acquired by the founder of Crocs who had it refit in 2012 and used it as a way to promote the brand. It has since been donated to AMI Kids to be us...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle we scramble to finish a few projects on our custom 435 catamaran SV basik to keep our scheduled launch time. We are on a hectic schedule and try our best to make it work....did we make it? Thanks for watching an...
One of the great parts of boatbuilding (or maybe the hardest part about learning boatbuilding?!) is that there are many different ways to do things. And they are all correct!
Steaming in Arabella's frames is a good example of this. All her framing so far...
The Ericson 38-200 offers a lot of nice comfortable features in a racer-cruiser built in the 80's. We're familiar with this particular boat because it's currently owned and being sold by our friends Drew and Avery.
This boat was struck by lightning twice...
On this week's episode of Onboard Lifestyle we finally tackle and finish Teal's kryptonite on our custom 435 catamaran SV basik...the bridgedeck. It looks AMAZING! Now it's a mad rush to button up the rest of the loose ends before we splash. Life is defi...
