Im so glad I found your channel, the interaction between you two is magical as are your creations. Best regards - stay safe and we'll see you next week

Great job guys! Great watching you both overcome issues as they come up. She is going to be a beauty. Makes me a bit sad that I was not able to do this kind of build with my grandfather who had built quite a few boats like this before he passed.

Really enjoying these videos! What a great project to work together on - it’s got me looking at plans for the Malahini. Can’t wait to see the finished boat!

9:57 I've had that very same compass for over 30 years.

When you were planing in that dashboard, I would have tacked a piece of 1/8 -1/4" plywood to the top of the forward frame and roughed it out with a Japanese pull saw first. Then come in with the plane to finish the job. If you had a power plane I would have worked to rough it down and then finish with your had plane also. Saves a lot of work. That said the boat is really shaping up nice.

Your boat looks to be exactly like my Glen-L Outrage. My motor well was a head scratcher as well. My Outrage called for a 4”x8” horizontal beam epoxied and screwed to the transom that the motor well rested on. The beam with the transom knee allowed up to a 120 hp motor. I had an 80 hp. The Outrage is 16’ long. How long is your boat? Ya’ll are doing an excellent job .

Looks good guys, well done. Hey will you consider placing glass/epoxy on the inside seems such as the bow which is under tension etc to make it bullet proof

It could be a good idea to put a solid piece of brass plat to fit over the bough we’re the mother will be fitted.

Why is there a gap between the floor of the well and just behind the seat?

Why are you standing on the plywood between the frames.
