Years of Planning Led to This Moment… The Walls Are Going Up! | Soulianis - Ep. 135

Sun, 23 Aug 2026 14:06:22 +0000

After what feels like a zillion years of planning, researching, calculating, and generally overthinking everything, we’re ready to build an actual barn for our trimaran!

In this episode, we bring in a telehandler to stand up the huge 64-foot walls, and immediately discover our columns don’t actually fit into their brackets the way they’re supposed to. 🤦🏻

After a quick fix, we’re back in business — and things actually go surprisingly smoothly. By the end of the day, three walls are standing, and for the first time, we can really start to see (and feel) what this barn is going to be.

It’s pretty fricken rad.

Many thanks to all of you following our journey, we so appreciate you!

Hope you enjoy!
Lauren, Kirk, Renata & Kai
