We’re back aboard Arabella in Newfoundland and shifting straight into winter adventure prep — new skis, a DIY sled bag for hauling gear, and a first recon toward the Lewis Hills. Full episode is live now on the channel.

Steve began the journey as an amateur wooden boat builder crafting a 38' wooden sailboat in his backyard: designer William Atkin's Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel's gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and now sailing the boat—sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that traditional wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project continues beyond the boat shop, as Steve and crew travel and learn to cruise aboard the handmade wooden boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva. -------------------------- If you are interested in supporting/helping here are a few ways: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/how-to-help Acorn to Arabella's wishlist: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/wishlistpriority TotalBoat supports A2A!

What do you do when you arrive in the harbor and you like to lower your rolled code-0 sail and it won't come down? There is a twist in the line of your sail. At the top of the mast of 21 meters high. The twist is so strong, that trying to turn the sail the opposite site won't help. Only one solution: put on the bosun's chair and hoist to the top of the mast to untwist the line. That's what I did to make the twist go away, so we could lower our sail successfully.
