Here's the rest of the conversation. We broadcast an earlier live video— [ Ссылка ] — in which you can see Anne's friend Nica making fantastic soup and sandwiches aboard Calypso in Spa Creek. After that, we had a nice conversation with her and Jeremy. It was a welcome respite from the crowded Annapolis Sailboat Show, as we were floating there on the mooring.

Topics we meander through: Small cockpit? What small cockpit? These experienced cruisers talk about their preference for a tiller. Why is weather helm a good thing? Self steering! Using a tablet for chart plotter, GPS, route planning, and AIS receiving. Lexan hatch boards.

Nica has been blogging about food, cruising, and living aboard for a long time, and it's a treat to read. See her work here: [ Ссылка ]

Acorn to Arabella is a boat building project taking place in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve and Alix started as amateur boat builders building a 38' wooden boat in Steve's 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 wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project will continue well past launch, when they will travel and learn to cruise aboard the boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva.
