Here I'm adding a skeg to #thecoracle. It's not a vital addition for a boat of this stature but in this instance serves a number of purposes. - I've used 18mm ply to add a modicum of ballast to the lowest point of the boat which will give a hint more stability. As the client for this boat is a very exacting 4 year old it also allows a very simple rudder for both attachment and at-sea repairs as he's requested. - You can also see the filleting of thickened resin around it which acts as the bond. This is one of the many reasons why building #thecoracle is such a great introduction to the methods you'll need if you want to build an #oceanrowingboat or other grand venture. - I'd like to thank everyone who has followed this venture up to now for their patience as I create the website and initial products. I do have a plan for content which will cover details and techniques like this much more comprehsivly. You'll get to enjoy that soon! - If #thecoracle is of interest to you check out the link in my bio for the relevent pages of the website.

Starting is the hardest thing - be it rowing an ocean, making a change or trying something preceived as hard. This is my start. - Challenges are whatever you make them, I made a set of rules up for my ocean row that I thought I would be impressed by if others had done it. The construction of the boat was one the the greatest and hardest projects I've done and now I want to let othets with similar dreams access the knowledge and methods to do the same. - Building an ocean rowing boat might just be the best piece of training you can do to row an ocean. You'll learn more than you hever thought, and try harder than ever, and after all that you can begin. - Over the next few weeks I'll be presenting the options and adventures that you can take down these roads, and show you how everyone and anyone with the desire can do it, and for alot less than you might have imagined - less fundraising, more money to charity, deeper satisfaction. - Please get in touch if you see anything interesting and tell every adventurous soul you know to have a look. - #adventure #oceanrowing #boatbuilding #oceanrowingboat #selfbuilt #garagebuilt #workhard (at Ocean Rowing Boats) https://www.instagram.com/p/CATedvIJX7m/?igshid=1mp6qvmrdzd77
