eh, most of that would be saltwater, not the best to shower with XD I've looked out into desalinators, but looks like they cost more than the rest...
hi, thank you all for the input! hi, this would be a small 15ft shanty boat on pontoons, designed to run mostly on solar power (should have 1.5...
hi, I'm building a small boat, to be powered by an elecric motor. For the motor the best operating voltage is 48V: more than that is dangerous,...
it is getting warm here, so I've moved the work outside. Sanding almost done, then I'll do a couple coats of paint before moving on to deck...
I've completed the rough fiberglassing on both hulls, it took some time having many steps to repeat for two hulls. Now I'm waiting for...
hi everyone, new year, making some progress, planking completed and fiberglassing in progress. I have increased a little the width of the skeg so...
Eh, more the second one I guess XD (5 layer btw). About the fasteners, the plans calls for bronze screws/nails, to be left in place. I am using...
thanks for the suggestions! I did follow the plan instructions, which called for single piece bent chine log, and laminated sheer clamp. Sheer...
I think I actually have one of those for firewood XD but with that you were supposed to split the wood to accurately check the moisture inside...
mounting chine logs had one explode... well I was bending too close to a joint, and clearly with not enough steam/heat >_< made quite a big...
here we have stringers and bulkhead elements, now I am starting to assemble the hulls. I will make one hull at a time to recycle a single...
hi, my project is at a state where there is finally something worthy to see, so I'm starting this build log for anyone who may be interested :)...
thank you all for the replies! quite small, 5mt-ish, it will be a platform for a small shanty boat thing XD the hulls will have hatches for...
hi, I'm building a small cat with plywood hulls over a wooden frame. Plywood is exterior grade okume and frame is spruce ( I know not the best...
hi everyone, I'm studying around all about steering and cables and stuff this should be a teleflex copy, right? Amazon.it...
yep, that's my current best option I guess for rope steering are there generic kits to adapt, or I have to build something entirely from scratch?
hi, I'm building a small 16' shanty boat with a catamaran hull. I want to power it with a cheap-ish electric motor (I have plenty of surface for...
another couple doubts: 1. the hull bottom should be reinforced for a trailerable boat (compared to a standard boat) since on the trailer the...
btw this is my prototype which I realize looks like a refugee camp on floats XD but works ok to test the concept
I thought of that, but I don't need to carry that much weight, so a cat/pontoon hull is probably better. My estimate is around 500kg between...
