Here's the twentieth installment as I document the journey of transforming a dilapidated 40' wooden boat into an offgrid liveaboard.

The boat is a 1940 seaplane tender that was originally used by the Royal Air Force during WW2. The hull is built of double diagonal mahogany planks and oak supports. My parents bought this boat over 25 years ago and used it for weekend trips up the lake. But unfortunately, as they became busier with work it was left idle for many years falling into disrepair. So I've started to invest time into repairing the boat and transforming it into a cosy sustainable home.
