Well, I am happy to announce that the list is getting smaller. I had to tear down the sticky notes that have been up there for years as I’m working on the main cabin fiberglass doors now.
I am trying to get these done in 2024 to get out cruising.
If I don’t get it done so-be-it it will take me 1 more off season but I am not going to give up.
I created a master tracking log of what I am working on right now, the last list. It Is some of the most crucial components, but as they say, you can’t eat an elephant in one bite. It takes many small bites.
If you have ideas, I opened up these pages for comments to help me out. I still have some technical components in the list and will continue my youtube videos on the subject matter.
I guess the point is that I have to create a list so I know I am making progress, so I don’t loose my focus, and so that I know there is an end in sight where my next stage will be to start cruising.
Here is the boat project list, Mission to Launch!

Great video….keel repair…what barrier coat and how many coats did you use …?
Thanks Bob glad you enjoyed my very amateur-made videos 🙂 with respect to the barrier coat I used Interlux 2000E/2001E and applied 5 coats. They have a couple of colours so I used different colours not exactly 100% evenly but got lots of overlap that way. That stuff hardens very hard.
