The construction of the wooden boat Arabella reaches a milestone with the acquisition and installation of a 53-foot white oak keel timber.2:01 Sourced from New England Naval Timbers, the beam weighs over 3,000 pounds and serves as the vessel's backbone.0:50 To move the timber into the boathouse, the crew organizes an open house event where nearly 100 volunteers assist in rolling the beam along a system of pipes and cribbing.14:47 The process involves manual labor and careful coordination to navigate the timber into position. During the event, the builders demonstrate the lofting process, explaining how to draw full-scale plans on the floor and use battens to spring curves for boat molds.11:34 They also showcase a restored 100-year-old bandsaw equipped with a Variable Frequency Drive to control motor speed and startup torque.11:46 Future plans include sourcing Atlantic white cedar for planking and spruce for the mast.6:06 Moving heavy timber manually requires a systematic approach using rollers and constant repositioning of cribbing to maintain control.14:09
