Ce que couvre cette vidéo

At Blommenholm, a traditional wooden boat maintenance community, two owners are preparing a skärgårdskryssare and a Draco for the sailing season after buying the skärgårdskryssare in autumn 2024 for 1 krone.1:13 The pair pool resources and labor across both boats, working through a long winter refit.0:56 On the skärgårdskryssare, work includes new sliding hatches and lazarette hatches built to original drawings by Jack Iversen, keel and skeg fairing, rudder reinforcement, propeller pocket filling (the inboard engine has been removed), and new topsides planking at the stern after damage.2:48 The crew plans to strip and relay the entire deck the following year, uncertain what lies beneath the spiked deck's galvanized fastenings.3:34 A laminated morello cherry tiller is being shaped for the Draco — the wood is described as a local alternative to mahogany, attractive but moisture-sensitive and requiring thorough sealing.4:11 African mahogany sourced from a single large plank is being ripped for new coamings.5:41 Timber for other work came directly from a sawmill.5:18 The owners note that owning a wooden boat demands flexible working hours and willingness to learn, but the Blommenholm community provides ready access to experienced craftspeople.6:38
