Thankfully this episode is only hours behind when I normally upload and not days. Garrett scrambled and hooked up one of our solar panels so I could keep working on this video during the odd power outage in Napa.
The bowsprit is finished up to where we planned on getting it during this haul out as...
Garrett did a majority of the filming for this episode! I was stressing about whatever video I was working on at the time but Garrett crushed it and nearly finished the bowsprit in the time it took me to finish the episode haha It looks so great and can't wait to get the hardware made so we can...
Thanks for watching everyone!
Many thanks and much love,
Ruthie
a HUGE thank you to everyone that has purchased items off our wishlist. You are giving us a big step forward in the projects to come. We've never had such nice tools. You all are amazing, beautiful, wonderful people that we a...
Diving into yard life again. Long and productive days. Napa is hot so taking mid-day breaks is huge. The second half of the day when it's still warm but the decks are fully shaded are the best. After our work here in the yard is complete we'll be looking for a slip closer to the bay to con...
Here we go! Back to the boatyard to get a few more big projects done on the boat. To come is deck planking, mast raising, through-hull cutting, bottom painting, and re-splashing. The trip was about 5 miles and took a little over an hour and a half. We arrived the Saturday before our haul out because...
I had a lot of fun putting this episode together. I'm looking forward to the day I get to make a sailing video for you all! We are so very grateful for the help we've received from you out there. The views, the subscribers, our patrons, and everyone that has donated from Amazon. It's ...
Our final weeks of water life are upon us. Do not fret we are super excited about our haul out. In this episode we take on the sampson post and installing our house battery bank. The sampson post is our last big construction project while at Judy's dock. It went smoothly. We took our time while...
The mast project took just about 2 weeks to complete. We wanted to move quickly as renting the space was adding up daily. We get the mast rounded and add the hounds which are where our shrouds are attached. We've got about a month before we are hoping to haul Rediviva out to step the masts and ...
Last episode we laminated up a new main mast. We continue shaping the mast to fit the mast step and getting it closer to round. Long but great days working outside in the Napa Boatyard!
Thanks for watching everyone!
Many thanks and much love,
Ruthie
a HUGE thank you to everyone that has purch...
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 ;)...
When all the prep was done the reward was hanging planks! The preparations took weeks but finally the visual satisfaction of our first two runs of planking were on. We bought green lumber which means some movement is expected but we were surprised how quickly once cut down into planks the wood dried...
Determined to finish Rediviva and get her sailing we've decided to focus on the projects we have the motivation for. Tired of being trapped down below working on the engine and interior it was time to step outside. Now that the sun is making more of a steady appearance it's time to tackle ...
We take a little trip south of the rain to Garrett's hometown, Morro Bay. Rejuvenated we get back to Rediviva and install the thrust bearing; the last piece of the driveline assembly. Taking time for yourself is crucial during a longterm project. Something we haven't truly done before. As ...
(If you stay tuned at the end of this episode is a little real-time update.) We install the driveline and finally finish permanently securing the engine to the beds. Then we rearrange plywood in the boat while we wait for more engine parts to trickle in. We are so happy with our engine access! World...
We talk a lot in this episode about the interior. After serious research on the driveline we decide to go with a company that does this for a living. While waiting for the driveline to be made we start in on making lasting choices for the interior. Getting one full bulkhead in and the start of the d...
This was an amazing day! We are eternally grateful to Judy and her hospitality. Tiffany and Tyler were excellent crew. Bit by bit the engine is coming together. Next we start in on some of the interior work. Thanks for watching!

The morning after the launch we awoke tired but with a smile. We check every few hours but her bilge fills slowly as the sheathing stems the flow to her main planking. With a little help from Teddy, Tyler, and Sender Sailing we move her to a more permanent spot in the marina. Her very own slip...
A brand new boat is launched. Rediviva is in the water! Nuff said.

We move Rediviva to a slip and tur...
Teddy teaches us the ways of stick welding...tries to anyway. We get the bobstay plate mounted and install our single thru hull. Thanks to Ron's generosity and sweat we got more done in the week than we expected! I finally get to put my hands in some red paint and help Garrett finish the ...
Happy New Year!
While Garrett's busy cutting planks I work with Tyler on his rigging project. Tyler has an Aries 32 and has to replace the rigging but he's decided not to put back stainless like it was before but to try blending a few traditional techniques with modern line, 3/8th inch th...
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!
Sa...
In this episode we fully get our hands into sheathing. Making even the stickiest of projects fun. We are so thankful for our amazing neighbors and now very close friends. Tyler, Garrett, and I have a work-trade agreement, trading hours on each others project. This camaraderie is exactly what we all ...
A huge thank you to Sender Sailing for lending me their computer to edit this video as mine crashed. This is the second time I've put this episode together! Thank you to all of you, subscribers and patrons, who waited for this video. I'm indebted to so many people who helped make this poss...
