Emily Harris is building the schooner Malabar IV in a workshop in Cornwall, targeting the 2027 Fastnet Race, and is actively seeking a buyer to fund completion.0:16 The hull and deck are within weeks of being closed in — two planks remain in the hull, the yellow cedar sub-deck is laid and being sheathed, and cover boards are complete.10:08 The penultimate planks are going in, with the final "whiskey plank" imminent.23:17 Harris estimates a race-ready boat with a rudimentary interior at roughly £650,000 and a fully fitted-out version at around £850,000.20:27 The build is proceeding with volunteers and interns at a pace Harris describes as leisurely compared to professional rates; meeting the 2027 Fastnet deadline would require a buyer within a month and a shift to overtime professional labor.4:05 Two interior layout options exist: a 1920s plan with galley and crew quarters forward and owner's saloon aft, and a 1950s cruising layout with the galley near the cockpit, a saloon with wood burner, shower and heads, and a forward master stateroom — Harris expects most buyers to prefer the latter.17:59 Scarf-cutting technique for plank alignment, counterbore drilling sequence for soft-wood planking, and clamp placement on curved strakes are demonstrated in detail.6:30
