Acorn to Arabella - Journey of a Wooden Boat - Episode 25: Setup for Our Lead Pour

Need a setup to pour a lead keel? Here's how we set up to pour the 4.5 ton keel for our wooden sailboat build. We are building a 38ft wooden sailboat and needed a solid 9500lbs ballast keel. No easy task!

If you haven't seen the video of the pour, you should check out the link at the end of this video.

Acorn to Arabella is a boat building project taking place in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve and Alix started as amateur boat builders building their own 38' wooden boat in their backyard: designer William Atkin's Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel's gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and beyond—sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project will continue well past launch, when they will travel and learn to cruise aboard the boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva.
