This week, Steve installs the Shipmate marine wood stove aboard his DIY wooden boat, because the days are getting colder in Maine. Marine wood stoves keep the interiors of wooden boats (and all cruising boats for that matter) dry and warm. This Shipmate wood stove can burn pretty much any solid fuel, but it was designed to burn coal. Some people wonder about having a fire on a boat when we're under way... but that's what the diesel heater is for. Next week we'll be doing marine electrical with Nigel Calder! -------------------------- Sign up for our email newsletter: http://eepurl.com/hn3Qyv Acorn to Arabella started as a wooden boat building project in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve began the journey as an amateur wooden boat builder crafting a 38' wooden sailboat in his backyard: designer William Atkin's Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel's gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and now sailing the boat—sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that traditional wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project continues beyond the boat shop, as Steve and crew travel and learn to cruise aboard the handmade wooden boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva. -------------------------- If you are interested in supporting/helping here are a few ways: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/how-to-help Acorn to Arabella's wishlist: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/wishlistpriority TotalBoat supports A2A!
