Joshua, a self-taught carpenter restoring a 32-foot wooden sailboat built in Japan in 1966 in the woods of eastern Canada, acquires the boat's original sails for free after a viewer tracked them down and donated them.▶ 0:21 The set includes six sails — a main, a mizzen, two headsails, and two unidentified — plus sail covers, cushion covers, a large canvas cover, and original rain gear.▶ 8:11 The sails are unlabeled but appear in good condition; Joshua plans to take them to a sail loft for inspection.▶ 6:11 Before picking them up, he attends a pine tar workshop at the Big Boat Shed in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia — the heritage building where both the original Bluenose and Bluenose II were built — where participants render nearly a gallon of pine tar from resin-rich yellow pine scraps packed in a steel drum with a paint can and funnel lid, fired overnight.▶ 1:49 Back at the boat, Joshua makes a second attempt at removing tar from the bilge, finding it easier in cold temperatures — some of it shattering when lag bolts are screwed in — and tests a new shop vacuum on the debris.▶ 10:42
