Ep 02 - 18' Sailboat Build – Strongback/Bulkhead & Transom

Moving forward!

This is the second episode of the 18’ sailboat build and begins with completion of the strongback. Then, the measurements and lines are put down on a sheet of ¾” (18mm) plywood for the transom and forward watertight, collision bulkhead. The watertight collision bulkhead separates the forward chain locker from the main cabin. A watertight hatch is being added to allow access to the chain locker from inside the boat.

The next episode involves building the main frames.
