100 Hours on the Engine In Our 1st Year - Episode 315 - Acorn to Arabella: Journey of a Wooden Boat
Steve and Robin moved on from Gloucester and made their way to Portland, Maine. While Robin was away for a few days to lead her company’s retreat, Steve and Noah moved Arabella north for a 2-day trip to Cape Porpoise and southern Maine.
On the 2nd day of sailing, the wind was not in their favor, and they had to motor the whole way. However, it was really nice waking up to a quiet, beautiful day in Maine.
Steve and Akiva enjoyed a few days in the harbor before Robin returned, and they all decided to extend their stay in the area.
Until recently, it had been quite a task getting Victoria on deck. Now with a refined system, Steve no longer needs to worry about hurting his back. After running through the checklist—fire up the systems, check engine oil, fire up the diesel, and pull the anchor—it was time to get out of dodge.
Along the way, Steve got news that his mom had been taken to the ER, so their stop in Portland would just be an overnight trip. The plan was to head deeper into Casco Bay to a mooring in Freeport where Arabella could stay while Steve and Robin returned to western MA.
When leaving the harbor the following morning, they spotted a NOAA science vessel towing a dead humpback whale that unfortunately became tangled in fishing nets and drowned.
And to end this week’s video, Steve provided a tutorial on how to use a trucker’s hitch.

Acorn to Arabella started as a wooden boat building project in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve began the journey as an amateur wooden boat builder crafting a 38' wooden sailboat in his 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 now sailing the boat—sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that traditional wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project continues beyond the boat shop, as Steve and crew travel and learn to cruise aboard the handmade wooden boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva.
