Welcome to episode 73 of Sailing Melody
Winter is coming and it's getting colder and colder here at Sailing Melody.

Andy fills all the holes left by the old wind and depth instruments as we continue to chip away at our restoration of this 40 year old steel sailing yacht.
We will be putting the new instruments in a pod on the steering binnacle with repeaters in the pilothouse so there is really no need for the ho...
Magnus is planning on making the davits for Peanut and our dear friend, Bryan, is a welder so he shows Magnus the ropes.
Magnus begins the repair on the lid of the front gas locker from Nutshell. The lid is very old and badly decayed so he goes about building a new one, using any bits that he can s...

How to fix a leaky chainplate on a Tayana 55 CC Blue Water Sailboat! Chainplates and Turnbuckles. In this episode we go in depth on cleaning and servicing the chainplates and turnbuckles. It is very time consuming to do all of the maintenance on the rigging. We take a break from all the projects to ...
We finally get to finish up the work on the bronze floors. We had about six sets of frames that needed to go in once we removed the molds. These last sets all needed bronze floors made up for them as we couldn't make those on our first go around. That means, back to bending bronze and weldin...
After an awesome time on Tahanae we are back in Fakarva to celebrate New Years Eve with some other sailors.
Nearly a year ago we bought a welding machine back in Panama and finally Mario is trying to built us a gaff.
We need to bring the genertor to the beach and try it welding for the first time...

Two major things before the main mast goes up: build the mast collar for the stays and make the shrouds. When we step the mast we'll need some temporary lines to hold it up. We'll hang several blocks from the mast collar to do this. Rolf is kind enough to have us back and help us weld the ...
Part 1 checked whether this was even feasible as a DIY project. This part covers the main construction up to the point of doing the first leak test.
Not a 100% success, but definitely not a (complete) failure. And not yet a finished project.

EPISODE 57.
In this episode, I cut the rest of the shape of the Cutwater into the Stem, using a chainsaw. Then I plane it smooth, and shape the transition to the square stem-head with a gri...
We are getting farther up the hull with the planking and as we do so, we are nearing the point at the stern where the propeller shaft will go through. We need to get this hole bored before we plank past it because we are going to need to be able to align our bore perfectly level (our shaft is level...
It has come time to start paying attention to the Catamaran Deck Mould that has now sat for two years waiting for some TLC. This week I start to consider the flipping of the mould and prepare some steel pivot legs to assist with flipping the mould to the upright position for the long road of prep re...
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 episode we get into more of that wor...

The end of the current metal work which comes with fabricating the bronze floors we are installing in Arabella is finally nearing its end. These structural members tie the frames to the centerline and whether they be wood or metal, are one of the most important parts of the build. We have put a lo...
We're moving right along with our silicon bronze floor timbers. We tacked most of the floor pieces together in preparation for welding them in batches. Before we can finish making the rest of the floor timbers though, we need to replace the frames that we culled recently. There were a couple...
As we continue moving forward on the forward and midship bronze floor timbers, we are kindly interrupted by a friend of ours who plays us a cover of 'Boats to build' by Guy Clark.
The bronze floors are a tedious amount of work. Bending the compound curves in the wings going up the frames...
We've all been looking forward to getting to work on the bronze floors but before we can do so, we had a bit more cleaning up to do in order to finish up with Victoria.
As we're looking to save as much as possible, we had to strip all the planking of its fasteners and find a way to safely ...
Floor timbers are a critically important structural member in wooden boats. As we've been building Arabella, there have been many decisions so far in terms of following the original plans or making slight adjustments. Each decision has pros and cons.
When it came to the floor timbers, we felt...
