My 1971 Aquarius 21 is empty and needs furniture: Benches, V-birth, kitchenette and head. Watch as I build a new design of this classic trailer sailor's interior. Music: Trees of Mystery - Old Nick's Laundromat Carefree - ?
As a fiberglass guy I understand that motivation wains when you have to grind in a small space. Even with a suit you get itchy. I’ve procrastinated on some projects but in the end it gets done. Cheers.
I am currently undertaking the same project with a 17’ swing keel. Really interested to see what you are doing with replacement of windows. Really enjoying your videos. Thanks.
i guess you just about finished the interior ,i noticed you didnt included water tight sealed compartments under the benches for buoyancy from bow at both sides and also at rear under 1/4 berths ,in theory your boat should be able to fill up with water upto the height of toe rails including the cockpit and still float ,ok so the cabin roof would be the new water line but you could sit ontop of it until help arrived
Since I wanted more headroom, I determined how much I would need/want and place a mark on the boat that was three inches below where it was originally. Then I started there with the level - down one side and across to the other. I compared in many places holding level athwart ship to confirm they were both in the same place. When I used the level, it was working well u till I reached the sharper curve of the bow. I think if I place a bubble or two on a batton it probably would have worked as well as a laser level. But since I had the laser, I chose to use it.
