A Boat in the Woods · video

¿Qué cubre este video?

Joshua guts the interior of a 60-year-old boat to gain full access to the hull for restoration. After removing the deckhouse to facilitate the extraction of large furnishings, he systematically disassembles the galley, berths, and bar structure. The engine, identified as a potential VW diesel, remains exposed for future assessment. During the removal of the port-side berth, heavy adhesive and hidden fasteners cause the destruction of a teak mattress support. A copper stovepipe on the coal stove resists removal, and the stove base cracks during the process. To support the rebuild, Joshua secures a dry storage area and a heated boiler room for use as a workshop. He receives a set of vintage Japanese chisels from a donor to assist with the woodworking. The project requires a slow, methodical approach to preserve original woodwork and reverse-engineer the original installation sequence. Patience and careful disassembly prevent further damage to aging, delaminated plywood and brittle teak components.
