Welcome to Episode 29 of the wooden boat liveaboard journey. In this episode, we applied another coat of primer to the hull, fiberglassed the roof using epoxy, and fixed the stem timber at the bow. If you have a passion for boats, especially the timeless beauty of wooden boat projects, you've come to the right place! My channel is dedicated to sharing the process of restoring and repairing a 1940 Seaplane Tender into a fully functional liveaboard.

The boat is a 1940 seaplane tender that was initially used by the Royal Air Force during WW2. The hull is built of double diagonal mahogany planks and oak ribs. My parents bought this boat over 30 years ago and used it for weekend trips up the lake. Unfortunately, as they became busier with work it was left idle for many years falling into disrepair. So I've started to invest time into repairing the boat and transforming it into a cozy sustainable liveaboard.

I'll document the process as best I can and release weekly episodes here on my YouTube channel. So make sure to subscribe if you haven't already.
