[@martymcfly3986]

que legal, ta ficando bonito hein! parabens pela gravidez. quantos projetos!

[@OddLifeCrafting]

Muito obrigada ☺️

[@davidnichols147]

Roberta is glowing with her baby and looks marvelous, truly magnificent. We are so HAPPY for her and Duca, so very happy France is treating you both as Royalty. The new boat is really taking shape, she'll be so sweet. Congratulations!

[@srmarques925]

Brasileros en español: felicidades por el barco y por Roberta!!!!

[@OddLifeCrafting]

Gracias

[@jbcloud3910]

You should save those tiny scrap pieces. I would buy one to have a piece of the new odd

[@OddLifeCrafting]

That is a great idea but I'm not sure if it's possible as the yard owns the scrap pieces and I'm sure they sell to be recycled. 😊 But let's see if we can ask them for some of it. 🥰

[@Rogster559]

Love the way you describe the shape of your boat for the layman to understand , Roberta looks more gorgeous every time we see her love and best wishes from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺

[@Foxriverfarm1]

@@OddLifeCrafting if they let you get them then have them engraved with the with the name of your boat.

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

The cut outs are called scuppers btw .. so glad to see you are doing well..young lady 🧙🏻‍♂️🇬🇧 There's a S. African guy talking about having a cat built by the same design company as Nahoa ..and Delos. I pointed him in your direction to discuss the use of sprayed cork and cork decking as a greener form of preventing condensation and controlling heat transfer on an Al. hulls deck as well as safety and comfort under foot. There's a lot of welding craft in the construction of these hulls.. I wonder how they worked it all out.🤔

[@harryjohnquest7102]

​@@Foxriverfarm1right thinking.

[@mikemahoney9483]

Congratulations, The education you are providing with this build is extremely informative to all who watch your videos.

[@dcallan812]

FAINALLY boat work ❤ Great update 2x👍

[@tinkmarshino]

I still can't believe you were on board of ODD for two years... It seemed much shorter to me.. But then I have a life here.. a retired life, but a life.. so maybe that is why.. You have made this channel an amazing place to go and get away from my mundane every day life and live a vicarious life through you all.. thanks for the years of relief.. Carry on!.. I pray for the healthy and happy birth of your child..

[@remiewatkins8032]

Awesome video Blessings on you both thanks for posting

[@josepecanocano1587]

Felicidades por los avances del barco, que alegría verlo ya nacer , por fin, gracias por compartirlo, saludos desde Malaga ESPAÑA

[@drCohenWellnessCntr]

Duca, thanks for explaining the process of building the boat. You did a wonderful job explaining it. I have been an airplane mechanic for 45 years and thanks to you now I understand exactly how the hull is coming together. Good luck with the build and the baby.

[@Merlin997]

I build my van over the past 2 years, but one day it will be a boat! Thanks for inspiring me (even when things get ((really)) though) ❤

[@OddLifeCrafting]

Glad to hear that my friend!! It means the world to us!! 🥰

[@marcmoullard3813]

Very interesting, thanks a lot Roberta and Duca. Keep doing the good work. Cheers

[@OddLifeCrafting]

☺️🤗

[@wonder-land]

Loved your explanation of the steps, but the reasons why the build is done a certain way adds great dimension into your world. Thanks for sharing your passion.

[@Sircraig7963]

G'day Crew, I haven't watched you guys for quite a while now , (never missed an episode of your last rebuild ) but, I see you are undertaking a "NEW BUILD" now . Being as this work interests me very much I had to watch. Behold , what do I find . The lovely Roberta is pregnant , naturally this deserves the BIGGEST CONGRATULATIONS.... to you both , so fantastic guys . Even Duca seem a little calmer than his usuall excitable self . It shows how proud you both are with this beautiful blessing . Naturally I hit the sub button again , so the journey starts all over again ,but from the very start this time with a COMPLETE BUILD . But best of all , now there will soon be three of you ,how cool is that . Best wishes to you guys , especially to the soon to be " new crew member" Respect....!

[@skyak4493]

Some terms: The holes in the toe rail are “Scuppers". The buklhead welds are cut to relieve “residual stress” from the partialy finished hull.

[@simsjef]

I so appreciated your buildout explanation and I now see advantages to an aluminum buildout as the strength of the boat will be incredible. It’s amazing to see the workers do their thing.

[@edgarmuller6652]

Great to be able to see step by step of your own boat built. Congratulations

[@wrayjordan7188]

Fascinating construction. Thick hull. Looks like she’ll be fast and tough. Good luck with her.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

☺️

[@jimh.5286]

That's an interesting building process, quite different than fiberglass. Maybe there's some similarity to a wood panel stitch-and-glue process. Roberta looks great!

[@avisseclaude6823]

Great ! Can you please share us what you know (and don’t know) regarding the budget ? It will be so great for the community!

[@Cptnbond]

What an excellent explanation of the build process. Cheers.

[@ifitsrusteditsmine]

Superbe boulot. Quel plaisir de voir de la belle fabrication à la française.

[@OddLifeCrafting]

[@vernonsimmons4578]

Fascinating 😊

[@OddLifeCrafting]

☺️

[@SailHub]

Exciting stuff guys, she’s coming together!!! Great demonstration of the build technique too!

[@OddLifeCrafting]

☺️😘

[@forrestwebb6182]

Great job explaining the aluminum boat-building process, Duca! The use of paper props was super useful for understanding how these complex curved shapes are made from flat pieces of aluminum. Looking forward to watching the whole process unfold. It's interesting how you guys, as well as a few of my other favorite channels are diving into the building or rebuilding process! Sailing Uma, Delos, and RAN, La Vagabonde.

[@bobperry1269]

Love this channel, you have come a long way together and preparing for a new life as parents, new van and boat as welll. Love your craftmanship too.

[@nomorehate9176]

The hull is just beautiful!! Congratulations!!

[@OddLifeCrafting]

Thanks ☺️

[@marklapierre5629]

I'm so looking forward to seeing the new boat on the water and seeing you three continue to sail the Atlantic tropical islands.

[@mattcornett2028]

It makes perfect sense, but to accout for spring back at the level. That's impressive

[@graeme-sailingskeptic]

Well done guys! It's getting exciting now

[@OddLifeCrafting]

☺️🤗

[@josecarloscampelo7501]

O barco está tomando forma, os rapazes são extremamente caprichosos, mas o wue me chamou atenção foi a alegria da eng° Roberta com essa supervisão tenho certeza que esta tudo perfeito.😄😄😄

[@jodymooney255]

This is so exciting!

Thanks a lot! 🥰

[@colinboniface194]

Growing a boat and a baby... There is a lot going on... You both look healthy and happy so all is well... I like the concept of 10mm plate and less bulkheads and framing... More room to play with and a stronger home... Nicely coming together...

[@AlexKall]

Great explanation!

[@SaffronShutter]

Amazing you guys (Jasmeen, Xantrex)

[@OddLifeCrafting]

☺️

[@rb6662]

I am able to now understand how this works without rolling the plates . Very thankful for the permission to film and not disclose faces or proprietary technical information

[@ArcticSeaCamel]

Very interesting and quick process! But of course requires a lot of expertise and big tools!

[@webheadusa9377]

Duca - excellent presentation of how the shape of the bottom plates are affected by welding. And the aluminum plates are about 1/2" thick compared to the thickness of the paper being, well, paper thin. Being able to actually see rather than to try to form a mental picture of the process - just another "Duca Talk" presentation, giving competition to the "Ted Talk" as award winner of the Month. And now I have seen three different methods of building an aluminum boat, Odd Life Crafting, Distant Shores, and Sailing Into Freedom. :¬) Webhead USA

[@FCA1962]

Parabéns! Vossos vídeos são altamente instrutivos paras os amantes da navegação a vela. Sem dúvida nenhuma o alumínio é de longe o material mais seguro para a navegação (pelo menos para esse porte de embarcações, sejam elas a vela ou a motor visto que embarcações de grande porte o uso é do aço). Venho acompanhando não só vosso barco como o de outros em suas construções e a alternância de sistema construtivo no uso do alumínio fica aqui muito bem demonstrado. Parabéns e obrigado por dividir essa experiência de maneira tão clara. Parabéns também pelo crescimento da família…🙏👏…sorry but my english is kind “Me Tarzan you Jane”…lol

Very interesting an i arrive to understand😉

[@phiphitessoc7189]

J’adore votre chaîne je vous suis depuis que vous avez aménagée tout les deux les contenaires en un magnifique logement ,que de chemin parcouru et maintenant la famille va s'agrandir toutes nos félicitations 😂❤

[@johnross440]

Duca, excellent presentation, it is hard to visualize while fabrication is taking place, with your paper explanation it was quite simple… Thanks, John, Ontario, Canada

[@Manuel-qf2ps]

Bonjour, merci pour ces videos du fameux chantier de Tarare qui a vu naître avec cette technique du Strongal de si beaux bateaux et que je n'ai pas eu encore le temps de visiter moi même. J'ai hâte de voir le résultat final. Et pourquoi pas de visiter votre bateau si vous passer en Bretagne quand vous quitterez la Méditerranée (après la mise à l'eau..). Eric La trinité sur Mer

[@michaelrobinson8915]

Delo is using that bender for building thier aluminum boat constrution...bendiciones...m

[@4437RR]

Good work!

[@eduardoHMYT]

This is the level of ownership that we should accomplish!

[@scottadamson2431]

Duca the little holes in the side panels are called the scuppers.

[@jrg1127]

This process looks really familiar after watching Doug build SV Seeker in his front yard in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He called it "origami boat building".

[@DYoung-vt8pq]

Love you guys! Roberta, you look so beautiful & healthy in this Vlog. Be well. ❤

[@eduardoHMYT]

2 boats 1 Odd 2 Even

[@chilly6883]

Duca you are going to be a great dad- the GREATEST thing a man can be is a dad- enjoy the journey you two- much love-

[@maximilianobesso7732]

I love to see Roberta’s belly growing! Quick question any may be dumb question but anyway. Do you guys know how heavy will be the hull itself once they finish it?

[@johnzink3309]

Thx

[@daomingjin]

this deforming can be avoided by using temporary ribs made out of wood and screwed into specific places on the metal ensuring both sides are equal

[@LoanwordEggcorn]

This technique is similar to "stitch and glue" with plywood and fiberglass, but done with metal.

[@akimmonet]

❤

[@OddLifeCrafting]

💕

[@jasonlangren2896]

I love you guys I wish your video was a little longer or more times a week one 14 minute video isn't enough

[@hedleyjackson5131]

Great to see some boat build progress. Totally different technique to sailing into freedom build. Is the forefoot going to be flat?

[@OddLifeCrafting]

To be honest I don't know the exact meaning of forefoot. If you refer to the lower part of the bow it is composed of the chines, one bottom one in a "triangles" format and both side chines. Exactly like Odd our old boat and exactly as shown on this episode. It is already almost in the exact shape there is one tiny deformation that will be "fixed" in next weeks video or the one after. But yes, the bottom is flat with twin keels with bulbs.

[@energiegeek5465]

hello i am french and very curious. what is the company that builds the boat and how much does it cost? do they make the whole boat or just the aluminum hull?

[@phillo1818]

Fantástico, matemática, ciências e engenharia estrutural, como não amar? Tenham uma ótima semana Roberta e Duca! Awww j'oubliais, je suis censé t'écrire en français ! Comment progresse votre français ? La semaine prochaine, en français seulement !

[@charleneschmidt1920]

Duca, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. It is interesting. Helps to understand what we see when you show us after your explanation. You are both very smart. Roberta, I hope you are well. You definitely glow. Are you going to find out the gender of your child?

[@tnllifeunedited9165]

✌️🤠

[@SpoonerTuner]

Without using CAD software this would be so much more complicated to extract the right curve to cut the plates out.

[@JackRead-y2r]

How long is the build going to take ?

[@OddLifeCrafting]

The yard sais that they will deliver the hull by the end of October. Then our part (interior and systems) we have no idea. Will take as always on baby steps. 😅🥰

[@tommytriglav5181]

Omg baby on the way you need a larger boat. Longer boat goes faster. Omg. Need to add 10 feet for every child.

[@sergueiothonucci1638]

😃😃😃

[@OddLifeCrafting]

☺️

[@Kingsoly]

what is the advantage of this style of building as opposed to having an internal frame (the thicker aluminum, I guess?)

[@OddLifeCrafting]

You can find your answer on this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJqnaXuog7Wnm6Msi=2ctNbix509sohAfe

[@짱가-m8s]

Which country and where is your boat yard located? May I know your name and address to the boat manufacturing company?

[@Inamorata.367]

Are you going to accept donations to fund THIS project?

[@kiwibobnz9812]

Is that all they’ve done how many weeks is that or should I say months I seriously would be disappointed in the progress

[@OddLifeCrafting]

They didn't work on our boat for weeks as they are short on welders. This was done in between them working in another boat that has already left the yard now. After this point (shown in this video) we have two full time welders in our boat and things started to move faster. We will show more progress in next weeks video. Also this is the first time they build this design, so some tasks take longer then it will probably take on hull number two. 😅

[@lynstoneham]

Hello how is mum to be doing

[@jocalima72]

Vocês realmente acham que precisa apresentar em inglês? É mesmo necessário? Somos Brasileiros e podemos! Reformar ou construir barcos.

[@carsonbratanov1035]

You should have her around loud noises while the baby is in the belly! It's good for the baby to be used to loud stuff so when the baby is born nothing bothers it and it won't scream or cry. Alos sleep all night and you can do whatever you want to in the house or wherever your at. We went boating, side by side riding ,worked on the house while my old lady was pregnant. Next day we got home from hospital we worked on the back patio cutting wood , building a deck and my son didn't give a crap, slept right through it! Heck my sold lady was running a straw blowing machine 8 months pregnant while we redid the yard. Get your old lady busting her butt the baby will be just fine

[@jpsuperstar]

Holy gd man lay off with the unsolicited advice

[@carsonbratanov1035]

​@jpsuperstar sounds like you have no idea about having a child! It's called great advice that helps for ever!
