lou from Tips from a shipwright is a very experienced Shipwright, he built his stripe plank boat upright and didn't have an issue and I'm sure he know what he's doing. He's been in the boat trade for a long long time.
Our 24 ft cedar cold molded was built 35 yrs ago with our innovations, so love your build decisions. Thankyou for sharing (Vancouver Canada). Still sailing after all these years
it is only natural to want to lend you a hand faring the laminates. from montana.... best of wishes and so glad you document this build. it is a great journey you are sharing with us all. thank you.
Nice to see the work continuing, thank you both for putting these videos together. It's got to be tough working up the energy to go work in a cold damp shed some days.
Im in cold Ballarat so I know your nights are even colder. Glad you heaters are working and you can still get that fibreglass to cure so you can make progress. That long keel is going to prove helpful in ensuring the hull will sail straight without needing too much trimming
Great progress and by the looks of things the boat is coming along well even though you may think it is slow. The longest journey can be accomplished by the smallest of steps.. Glad to see you can use that shoulder again too. You must have followed doctors orders pretty well with PT and such.Keep up the great work!!🤘
Oh not quite come good but definitely stronger and feeling much better, been putting in some serious physio rehab past couple months and it’s paid off!
Glad the shoulder is getting better and you can get back on the tools. If you had a workshop with overhead cranes then building the hull upside down i imagine could make sense. For you i cannot see how it can ever have been a realistic option. Great work as always and love how it is coming on.
Check out RAN Sailing... they're building upside-down and it seems like it took awhile to make the proper frames and to get everything precisely set but after that it was laying strips of red cedar followed by the fiberglassing of the hull and they're about done with both sides minus the transom.. I'm really interested in seeing both processes of self building and seeing which one is easier for a 1 or 2 person crew.. he's done alot of work mainly by himself. His wife helps out occasionally and has definitely needed to be of big help during laminating.
your work is inspiring me to build a boat of my own! I have always wanted to, but i thought it would never be possible. your content is extremely astounding! i have always wanted to sail the seas, and you're inspiring me to do so! click read more for the boat description. a 30 meter brigantine, oak , with two masts, four sails, and two jibs. the planks are 1 inch, but stacked on top of each other, three holes in each side, for when there is no wind, (or for cannons).
I just stumbled upon this channel because I was searching for people who are building at home.. I discovered ran sailing who is building quite the sailboat currently and there's a young man from the UK who is building a older ferro cement hull that's never been in the water. His channel is Knott finished yet.. all 3 of the channels are proving that it is possible to build your dream sailboat rather than going and buying a classic sailboat and putting work and money into it trying to make it exactly what you want and you will definitely end up with more money into it than you can ever get back.. what is wonderful is that when these people who have chosen to be cold, hot, have injuries, work themselves into almost exhaustion enter a harbor or wherever they are when others see their beautiful boats they can proudly say that they built it with their own hands.. not too mention that a boat built properly at home will withstand time and its difficult to find that in anything that is mass produced in today's world..
Great to see you getting on together again hopefully your shoulder is good as new again? One of the worst joint problems one could get it takes so long tu cure.
Yes sure do, are you in australia? We used an Omer nail gun and raptor nails. Sourced through Braford industries. They can easily be found in America as Raptor nails, and a few UA-cam videos on the plastic nails are there too.
Both of you are such important and integral pieces of this project that injury (as you found out) can seriously hamper the build. So when I see you power planing the keel boards and doing other cutting processes and you are not wearing protection, i just cringe! Please, please wear eye protection!

Oh great to hear we are on the right path! Hats off to anyone that has built a boat!
it is only natural to want to lend you a hand faring the laminates. from montana.... best of wishes and so glad you document this build. it is a great journey you are sharing with us all. thank you.
I bet you crack up every time you view your work spead up x100 !! LOL !!!
Hahah yes the fairing will be a big job to come, shame Montana is so far away!
Hi,this is turning into a very interesting view, thank goodness for modern glues,making this project possible.cheers Roly🇬🇧.
I love work. I can sit and watch it all day.
Thank you, that's so nice to hear!
Nice work
Looking good! It's so "funny" that you have cold right now. I'm currently melting in my shed at 32°C... No epoxy work today!
Yes the seasonal change for both of us makes life interesting! We also can’t glue on hot summer days, our shed is also either a freezer or oven…
Nice to see the work continuing, thank you both for putting these videos together. It's got to be tough working up the energy to go work in a cold damp shed some days.
Thank you for saying that! It does get so cold in our shed but the thought to be on the water with her one day keeps us going!
Great job mate
Cheers!
The laminations look so beefy and strong, nice work!
Oh thanks, yeah gives her a bit more of the tough and strong look! Hah

Most interesting project. And well explained and filmed. Thank you for sharing this project with us.
Oh great to hear, glad we can keep you entertained!!
Great descriptions. Many thanks.

Excellent!!! Really Amazing!
Shoulder's come good eh? Well done...you must be relieved! Great series of videos and quite a task you've set yourselves! Nice work!
Oh not quite come good but definitely stronger and feeling much better, been putting in some serious physio rehab past couple months and it’s paid off!
@@Building_a_Boat_by_the_River yes, I can see that by thw fearless way you attacked the saw and planer...whatever you are doing, keep it up!

Ah Tim, we can always rely on you as our beacon of positivity and encouragement! Thanks!

Excellent video, good storyline, action and explanations.
Oh that’s nice to hear, thanks Andrew
That is fine looking build, you must be proud of your efforts, it is going to be first class, good luck from the uk
Oh thankyou! We are looking forward to visiting the UK again one day, such a rich maritime heritage!
Great work guys been cold here on the North coast of tas but no snow here almost at sea level
Haha yeah we just went for a weekend away to the Great Lakes, that was rather chilly and a little snow!
Looking awesome!!
Well thankyou indeed!
Brilliant keep them coming 👍👍
Haha as long as you keep watching we will keep them coming!

Well done guys, keep up the great work! I'm already excited for launch day!
P.s the dishes are now clean , thanks
Great to see you getting on together again hopefully your shoulder is good as new again? One of the worst joint problems one could get it takes so long tu cure.
Yeah shoulder is not 100% but certainly getting stronger and stronger each day with plenty of exercise and physio
I have no interest in boats but this guy changed that
Hi, do you have any information on the plastic nails you were using on the previous laminations? Thanks!
Yes sure do, are you in australia? We used an Omer nail gun and raptor nails. Sourced through Braford industries.
They can easily be found in America as Raptor nails, and a few UA-cam videos on the plastic nails are there too.
That is going to be a very pretty boat before long, not saying it's not pretty now.
Hahah true! Something about beauty in the eye of the beholder?
But yes she will hopefully be a head turner on the water!
Sweet
Is this boat going to be water worthy?
That's definitely the plan!

Actually, there isn't anything different about your workshop. Every workshop has a chicken under foot.
Tally ho tight!!! Leo
