Shipyard Life: Welding Progress, Gypsy Dreams & Moose Dinner

Today on the Alaskan Gypsy, Scott takes you inside a long day in the Wrangell shipyard. After hours of welding and grinding on the boat’s chine, he shares how a small Milwaukee light kept the work going even after dark. This vlog is part boat restoration, part everyday Alaskan living: -Life aboard a steel motorsailer in Southeast Alaska -Progress updates on the welding project -Behind-the-scenes look at shipyard gear & tools -A well-earned moose brisket dinner cooked in the Ninja slow cooker -From blackened paint and welding fans to dreams of anchoring in Punchbowl Cove, Misty Fjords, Scott keeps things honest, funny, and real. Stick around for a glimpse of the adventures to come — hunting, fishing, hot springs, and learning the ropes of sailing life. 👉 If you’re into Alaska, boats, DIY projects, and the raw shipyard grind mixed with homestead cooking, subscribe and join the journey.
