Caulking a Small Wooden Boat, S2-E30

In this episode of The Art of Boat Building I caulk a small wooden boat, the Haven 12 1/2. The traditional method of using cotton as a seam caulk is explained and explored. In addition a discussion of shipwright tools need for the caulking process is presented. Bob Emser also tells about his trip to visit Acorn to Arabella and work on Arabella with Steve Denette. “If you’re going to make it, make it beautiful.” -Bob Emser- Subscribe for more Boat Building from The Art of Boat Building: https://www.youtube.com/user/bobemser/featured?sub_confirmation=1 Acorn to Arabella https://www.acorntoarabella.com/ Caulking Irons: https://www.woodenboatstore.com/collections/mallets-and-caulking-irons/products/caulking-irons-set-of-three?_pos=2&_sid=7e1eedd05&_ss=r Share this video with a friend: https://youtu.be/e_sFVrCtmUg How to support The Art of Boat Building.
