A Boat in the Woods · vídeo

Qué cubre este vídeo

Joshua stabilizes a wooden boat stored in the woods of eastern Canada by replacing a temporary cradle with a foundation of logs and spruce props.15:07 To prevent the hull from sinking into the soft ground, he digs a pit, uses a 12-ton bottle jack to lift the vessel, and installs larger keel logs.4:59 He also improves his overhead tarp shelter by installing a central support mast with guy lines, which provides enough clearance to stand on deck.22:09 Earlier, he mitigated an ant infestation using diatomaceous earth and borax traps, and he cleaned a significant spill of lamp oil from the deck using soap and water.2:13 Joshua reports a diagnosis of Lyme disease following a black-legged tick bite, which has caused fatigue and joint pain, forcing him to reduce his physical labor on the project.26:45 He plans to shift his focus to lower-intensity tasks, including documenting the boat’s history and specifications, while seeking financial support through a new Patreon account to fund the restoration.28:48
