This week, we tackle the massive job of finally fully welding the roof and adding much-needed reinforcement. Watch as we cut, fit, and weld all the new aluminum stringers (reusing leftover materials to save costs!), making the deck-saloon roof solid and strong enough for whatever we need to do on top! We are Duca and Roberta, a Brazilian couple that during a sabbatical trip in 2016 decided to follow our dream. So, we created "Odd Life Crafting", a project composed of many smaller projects that we call seasons. The first one was the creation of Odd Life Crafting. The idea was to build a metal boat to be able to travel the world taking our house with us, but we didn't have money for that. So, we started the next season: we built a tiny shipping container house with no prior experience in building to gain some skills to build a boat. When we were almost finished we found a boat 700km away from our hometown that was neglected for over 22 years and we spent 2 years refitting her (Season 3). On the season 4 we sailed for 2 years (exploring the Brazilian coast and part of the Caribbean), we sold our boat and we moved to Europe. The last season we are starting to build a new aluminum 43ft sailboat and a new life. We hope to inspire others to follow their dreams.

This episode is an emotional roller coaster. After moving forward, it feels like we're taking two steps back. Unfortunately, we found that 80% of our work now involves fixing severe structural and leveling problems from the initial welding on the aluminum deck of our boat. We face a huge challenge in aligning the forward deck, which is completely out of line and uneven. You'll see the frustration, but also the clever solution we found with Peter to shrink the stringer and bring the deck back to the correct position, using heat and tension! In addition to dealing with the structural problems, we had to make a crucial final decision: Design Change: We simplified the original plan and moved the chain locker to the bow, for safety and usability reasons. Final Layout Decision: It's time for the cuts of no return! We marked and cut the new hatches and portlights. This is what defines the boat's interior layout (Ollie's berth, head, etc.)—a moment of high tension. ⚠️ ATTENTION: The deck problem was bigger than expected! To avoid having a very long video, we divided the solution into two parts. Part 2 IS ALREADY LIVE!

Welcome to Part 2 of our structural nightmare! 🚢 After days of attempts, we finally found the definitive solution for the uneven and crooked deck. In this episode, the welder and I take a deep dive into the correction, using relief cuts and an ingenious aluminum "shrinking" technique to relieve the plate's tension and force it into the correct position.

And the first task was simple: welding the cockpit. But, as is routine in our boat building project, what should have been simple turned into a nightmare. We discovered that the cockpit had completely wrong drainage angles. The result? We had to make the painful decision to CUT OUT and redo a structure that was already FULLY WELDED! 🤯 We are Duca and Roberta, a Brazilian couple that during a sabbatical trip in 2016 decided to follow our dream.

Today we finally leveled the aluminum sailboat! ⚓️ We used a laser level to make sure everything is perfectly aligned before starting the welding — a big step toward making this dream boat real! It looks simple, but there was a lot of wood, sweat, and laughs involved 😄 The welding started right after this — but that’s a story for the next episode 👀 🎬 Watch the full boat-building series here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGLwyT44vfQ&list=PL4cGhq-GjyFnh0ptSShxIdRimpRPzrPiz 💬 Join our Patreon community: https://www.patreon.com/oddlifecrafting Support our project through PayPal: oddlifecrafting@gmail.com Chris's channel: https://www.youtube.com/@The_Ghostship We are Duca and Roberta (and now also Oli), a Brazilian couple that during a sabbatical trip in 2016 decided to follow our dream.

Exploring these boats, talking to the people involved, and diving into this world filled us with inspiration to keep going with our own sailboat project.

Here’s our journey so far: Season 1 – The Awakening While traveling and reflecting on what we truly wanted from life, we created this channel to share our path toward a more intentional, creative, and unconventional lifestyle. Season 2 – Learning by Doing With no prior experience (and a tiny budget), we built a fully off-grid container house to gain the skills we’d need to one day build our own boat. Season 3 – The Rebuild We found a sailboat that had been neglected for over 22 years and spent two full years restoring her, learning everything we could in the process. Season 4 – The Voyage We lived aboard and sailed for two incredible years, exploring the Brazilian coast and part of the Caribbean, documenting every step of the journey. Season 5 – A New Build, A New Life Now in Europe, we’ve begun building a 43ft aluminum expedition sailboat from scratch—this time while raising the newest (and tiniest) member of our crew, our baby boy. The stakes are higher, but so is our motivation. On this channel, you’ll find episodes full of hands-on boatbuilding, real-life challenges, budget breakdowns, and the raw reality of building a dream from the ground up—now as a family.

So, we created "Odd Life Crafting", a project composed of many smaller projects that we call seasons. The first one was the creation of Odd Life Crafting. The idea was to build a metal boat to be able to travel the world taking our house with us, but we didn't have money for that. So, we started the next season: we built a tiny shipping container house with no prior experience in building to gain some skills to build a boat. When we were almost finished we found a boat 700km away from our hometown that was neglected for over 22 years and we spent 2 years refitting her (Season 3). On the season 4 we sailed for 2 years (exploring the Brazilian coast and part of the Caribbean), we sold our boat and we moved to Europe. The last season we are starting to build a new aluminum 43ft sailboat and a new life. We hope to inspire others to follow their dreams.
