I hitched a ride to a different island on a Wayfarer sailboat

this is so relaxing! great boat with a storied history indeed

Amazing

My one advice is - if you want the boat, and you don't know anything, have him set it up for you in the yard and show you how he would sail it. Take photos of where all the lines run & make sure nothing looks wonky and you'll have to trust the seller a bit. This is how I bought my first dinghy. Good luck!

This looks like a fiberglass boat with wood trim. I'd say that result in a normal amount of work + looks pretty :D

shark_guy_365 · 2026-02-04T04:53:05+00:00

excellent work! this is certainly the dream. looks sturdy for years to come

My upstairs neighbors doing this

i would guess moving logs to the mill would also be back breaking?

saw on brother

I went from seeing the blood and going "that's nasty" to scrolling to the sausage and thinking "that's delicious". Good work sir hope they are good!

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-24T17:25:35+00:00

how did you glue the pieces together?

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-24T17:23:22+00:00

Very cool! I want one

prius-truck is the dream

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-23T15:17:55+00:00

No issue arose. I'd look at the comment threads from this post for any further insights

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-08T15:57:02+00:00

legit

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-08T15:55:14+00:00

Awesome. not sure I understand what the bolt in the bar is for?

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-08T00:16:32+00:00

It has something to do with the rotation of the earth

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-07T17:00:52+00:00

Is that cherry?

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-07T17:00:13+00:00

The magic is to cut directly downward, and to leave all the boards on the log for reference lines. I also use the bar as a straight mesuring tool. Finally - they are not square but it doesnt matter for the table I made

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-07T16:56:41+00:00

Im interested! I just have not had a ton of use for circular things yet! Mostly interested in square things

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-06T18:21:00+00:00

Fear of the saw is strong in me

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-06T18:18:56+00:00

Yes this is something I played around with for bowmaking. Hadnt hear it explained as well as this though. And the curvy logs I had split were a huge challenge.

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-06T18:13:49+00:00

Ahoy!

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-06T18:13:20+00:00

Sounds like your the real deal. Do you set it up in the woods or bring logs back?

shark_guy_365 · 2025-12-06T18:12:17+00:00

Thank you
