A huge thank you to Christian and his family for being so welcoming. We take a fun road trip down to (Garrett’s hometown actually) Los Osos where Christian has his shop.

We went live as we put the last plank on Arabella. This is a big moment of celebration, a milestone for the build as we carry on toward launch in 2023. The whiskey plank is called so because it is the last plank on the boat, completing the hull structure, and so it calls for a a celebration, traditi...
Watch the Whiskey Plank livestream Saturday starting at 2 p.m. ET:
Of the final three planks, the sheer strake (plank) goes on first. Made of locust, it can sustain the knocks and bumps of dock approaches or rafting (two boats tying up to one another) and defines the shape of the cedar strakes bel...
A little wood work, a little engine work, and a little sewing. Killing some time until the more pressing issue of rebuilding our transmission is possible. Garrett and I are starting to realize we have to throw out the idea of a “plan.” Too many moving parts and it leads to not only letting you down ...

We hope you find this episode enj...
Thank you to EcoFlow, who sent us their Delta Mini Portable Power Station to test. We've been wanting to monitor the refrigerator's performance and actual electrical draw, and it's been such a good tool for that.

Coach roof (cabin house) carlins are installed this week, and there's probably not much more satisfying than seeing finish go onto interior pieces before they're assembled like big-kid Lego, where they'll live all their days from here on out. Since the surface just above it will be st...
