  • Episode 23
    In this episode i begin by marking out and cutting the bevels of the aft face of the transom knees to allow a snug fitting of the transom boards.
    Once i have the knees shaped its time to get some temporary fixings in place to allow for the next stages.
    Once secure i am able to make a start at scribing and shaping the first transom board.
    Finishing up with getting the two transom board glued together and clamped back in place on the boat to allow the next steps to take place. The Bulwarks!!!

    Just found your channel and quite enjoying it. Back in the 70's when I was a teenager, I worked in a "yard" making ferro krete sailboats. I put yard in quotes because basically, it was just a fenced off field next to the estuary in Oakland, California. These were all owner built boats and every one of the owners was planning to sail the world. I don't know how many ultimately did but occasionally I see one still around . . . VERY occasionally.

    I wonder why you need two more knees on that transom. The two there are massive and the planks are beefy too. Seems like two more would just be something to trip over on the deck, and more maintenance and risk of deck leaks. Great work as always.

  • @SteelDoesMyWill
    @SteelDoesMyWill 2 года назад +5

    At some point in the build I'd love to hear you thoughts on the durability, maintenance, or other issues of ferro-cement hulls. Across the pond most buyers here avoid ferro-cement because they were never commercially produced, so they were almost always one-off builds and there isn't any consistency of the techniques or material. For sure there is no consistency in the information. My limited knowledge tells me it was more common method in UK built working vessels so I'm thinking there is better information and techniques from the shipwrights whom are more familiar.

    • @jmgrif
      @jmgrif 2 года назад +2

      As to durability! Powell River British Columbia, Canada has a number of ferro-cement hulks anchored out as a break water for the pulp mill. They were built during the 2nd world war but never commissioned. Still floating.

      @@knotfinnishedyet9170 Hi Finn; A company in Sacramento Fibersteel made 38 x 55 ft sailboats using a floating mold that was sunk to release the hull. They also developed what they called laminated ferro cement which uses expanded metal lath in a layup just like glass cloth. The mold was spayed and the lath placed then another thin layer of mix until they had the desired thickness. This process avoids voids which can be a problem with traditional FC and also allows a vey low water content mix which reduces porosity .
      Mine is hull number 6 built in 1974.The wife unit and I have been living aboard for five years. I hope our paths cross one day someplace.

    Great video Finn. Thanks for sharing. There aren't any channels about concrete boats. Can you do an educational video about how the concrete boat is built and the status of the concrete? is the concrete need any work? how is the concrete attached to the frames? can you fix it with epoxy if needed? is the metal in the concrete still there? is it rusted? Thanks.

    You have temporarily spaced the transom off the deck with plywood spacers (10mm?), is that for a scupper or will the board be fitted flush with the deck?
    If flush, then what are you intending to do about scuppers for drainage?
    This is coming along. nicely. Nice job.

    • @knotfinnishedyet9170
      @knotfinnishedyet9170  2 года назад

    When you get your boat finished its almost a guarantee that you will have either a boat company or private individuals asking you to finish out they're hulls.. do you know of any manufacturers who still are willing to build a ferro hull and sell it for the customer to finish?? I know that you can have companies here in America build you just the hull and filled keel.. cape George 36 is 37k without the decks or interior.. just a thick fiberglass hull and weight in the keel
