Coming to launch? It's IMPORTANT to visit the link below to get parking information. This small seaside town is looking forward to hosting you, and we've assured them that our community are the best kind of guests. https://www.acorntoarabella.com/launch-information Launch is at 10 a.m.! Make plenty of time to get to the waterfront by way of our shuttle buses or a sweet walk through a beautiful town. Have special needs for mobility? Email Annie B for a plan. Too busy for you Saturday? Come Sunday! We plan to be at The WoodenBoat Show! https://www.thewoodenboatshow.com/ It's a boat show held at Mystic Seaport from June 23, 24, 25. The nifty diesel exhaust from DeAngelo Marine Exhaust is installed this week thanks to their highly skilled diesel engineer and his creativity. Windex as a lubricant! Kyle departs but plays us a tune first. And one of our biggest moments yet: we disassembled the boat shed that has been this DIY wooden boat's home since she was a drawing on a plywood floor. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sign up for our email newsletter: http://eepurl.com/hn3Qyv Acorn to Arabella is a wooden boat building project taking place in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve started as an amateur wooden boat builder building 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 beyond—sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that classic wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY boatbuilding project will continue well past launch, when he and the crew will 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!
