What this video covers

Johan and Malin complete the primary structural lamination of the deckhouse roof and aft deck on their custom boat build at Sunhill Farm.▶ 0:04 To finalize the deckhouse design, Johan cuts a large 1100-millimeter window into the aft bulkhead between the deckhouse and the cockpit.▶ 12:34 He creates a template to guide a router, ensuring the opening maximizes visibility from the helm and interior.▶ 13:59 The couple notes that this modification improves sightlines, allowing a nearly 360-degree view from the cockpit and forward visibility from the starboard helm position.▶ 18:16 Beyond boat construction, the pair manages farm maintenance by purchasing a backhoe loader from a Chinese factory to assist with snow removal and heavy lifting.▶ 0:47 They also conduct a major cleanup of their workshop and barn, disposing of construction waste and fiberglass materials.▶ 3:27 The project now shifts toward extensive tabbing of the newly installed structural joints to ensure hull and deck integrity.▶ 8:00
