metal boat construction
The boat we're building is a bruce roberts voyager 388, made from a steel kit that was plasma cut in holland. (we're publishing a video about the kit and the day it arrived soon!). Experienced metal boat builders and designers have often come to recognize the potential benefits of building a metal boat over molds which do not hold the boat so rigidly as to make trouble during the weld-up. however, the competent among them also know that to leave the boat without internal framing is quite an irresponsible act.. This is a slideshow of the main build of my steel van de stadt caribbean sailing yacht mistress. there were many reasons why, but the work stopped,... however, the work has re-started, thankfully.
