Steve and his crew clear hazardous, overhanging tree branches from above the boathouse to protect the structure during incoming thunderstorms.0:10 Using a truck as an anchor point and a system of shackles and ropes for friction, they lower large limbs to the ground.1:45 Once the site is secure, Steve begins fabricating the first bulkhead for the wooden boat, Arabella.9:22 This bulkhead separates the main cabin from the forepeak, which will serve as a private sleeping area.9:36 To fit the bulkhead panel, Steve creates a template using thin cedar strips and joggle sticks, marking the junctions to ensure an accurate fit against the hull's curves.10:40 He then selects a salvaged mahogany frame-and-panel door from the vessel Victoria to serve as the entrance to the forepeak, evaluating its swing and clearance relative to the future saloon layout.19:24 The project requires ongoing adjustments to the mast step and bilge stringers to ensure the bulkhead sits vertically.18:49
