Bobby tours his Island Spirit 525 catamaran, named Doodles, at the Island Spirit factory approximately three weeks before its March 3rd completion date, documenting wiring installation, cabinetry, teak deck preparation, and flybridge finishing work still underway.0:44 The hardtop and mast will be fitted last, after the boat moves to water.2:36 A closed-circuit IP camera network — four cameras in the forward cockpit plus additional salon and flybridge units — will feed a 24/7 DVR with three weeks of storage and live-stream capability through the Sailing Doodles app.1:10 The battery bank, a Roy Powell system with five 5-kilowatt-hour banks, lives under the master cabin.3:32 Bobby plans to charter the boat out of Cochon as a four-cabin configuration at an undisclosed rate when not in use.4:19 Hull number six — a six-cabin Island Spirit 525 chartering at $20,000 per week — is pulled from its mold the same day using dual cranes and a wheeled cradle, with the 52-by-26-foot deck infused as a single piece for structural rigidity.9:24 Bobby then details his Highfield Sport 360 dinghy: aluminum double-hull construction, integrated 30-liter fuel tank, 40-horsepower Yamaha outboard, integrated ski tow pole, keyed ignition, and corner cleats.10:08 He also inventories roughly $1,000 in tools, primarily 18-volt DeWalt cordless gear bought locally in metric-only configuration.14:39
