Restoring Rosalind, Episode 29.4: What's this wooden boat made of?

Описание: Give a launch gift: https://bysnowydhboatworks.com/support

Anne had some footage put by and it was the perfect content to answer a question about how much of Rosalind was made of repurposed wood. Andrew talks about various species, where they're found and what they're good for. Importantly, he talks about a couple of things he'd do differently if given the chance.

Rosalind, a vernacular working sailboat built in St. Ives by William Paynter, has had a long and well traveled life. She's being rebuilt in Mystic, Connecticut by Andrew Guest, a boatbuilder and restorer who had already been thinking about building a lugger when he found this one destined for the chainsaw in Oxford, Maryland. Subscribe to this channel to follow and support her extensive restoration.

***WISHLIST: Andrew needs 3 to 4 larch logs that are 12" or more in diameter. This does not have to be milled lumber, and in fact, would be better standing or as logs, as we are able to harvest and mill. Please spread the word, check your property, yell it on a hilltop, whisper it to forest fairies. Thank you!
