Building a home on the water

It took 3 years and $70,000 to turn a pile of wood, fibreglass and epoxy resin, into a boat that became home for the next 5 years. It was the biggest task I’d tackled and the best thing I’ve ever done.

If you’ve dreamed of building a boat and sailing over the horizon, but haven’t started because of money, there are ways to do it. I had more time than cash, so instead of buying expensive, off-the-shelf marine items, I made everything I could, even the steering wheel, and it worked.

The boat I built was lightweight, fast, and now after 23 years in the water, she still looks like the day I launched her. This book is the story of the building of Tokyo Express—a 40ft catamaran. What I did, how I lived, the highs and lows of homebuilding.

There are many ways to save money by building a boat. I discuss alternative ways to build the hull, the importance of finding the right place and there is a timeline at the back, of how long each stage took me, to give you a yardstick for your calculations.

Inside the book I discuss -

Catamarans vs Monohulls
Things to consider—before starting out
Ways to build the hull
Motor options
Why the daggerboard is the most important part of the boat
How I made a generator to charge the house batteries—for less than $200
A simple steering system—made from bicycle parts
Ideas for the nav station and interior
Painting and antifouling that doesn’t need replacing
And much more…

If you are interested in building a boat, this book will give you lots to think about. Grab a copy—eBook or Paperback.

Man Builds Boat, Self-Medicates & Sails Away

2019年10月12日にオーストラリアでレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

A rarity among those who enjoy building boats and reading about building boats. Unfortunately, having been written by a busy sailor, the purpose and narrative is disjointed. Its neither a story or how to book, and presents as a series of blog posts melded together which it probably is. Now I'm sure there's a story there, what about the dark time mid-build when Author self-medicates and stages of the build pass without a note?
Anyway, for us starving boat building readers, its something.

Great information - needs some editing and proof reading.

This book would get five stars but for two things:
It lacks a little polish in terms of editing and review prior to publishing. Its structure is also a tad weird, that is to say, it's somewhat a story and so what a functional guide, but the author has gone to some effort to counter this.

The book is written as a story, but the chapters are largely divided up into functional processes or time spans (i.e. building hull number one, revising the shed, building the foredeck etc) which are told as a chronological story about that part of the build, but then the next chapter might jump back in time a little as various things ran in parallel, not strictly sequentially (such is reality of projects like this). To account for this, the author has included a timeline that helps with keeping track of the chronology, but it does make the story, a bit less 'story' like as you read because it disrupts the flow.

From a layman perspective, I think the narrative is very helpfully technically in terms of 'setting the scene' on building a boat...what does the process look like, what's needed, ballpark costs to do it, time involved etc. The basic discussion around design elements and concepts is also good.

A highly technical reference or a total 'how to' this is not, but it doesn't claim to be, just don't buy it expecting that or you will find it wanting.

Overall I think it's a great introduction to the subject, an interesting insight to the authors mindset (quite diligent and thoughtful compared to many people without an engineering background) so there a reason lots of little tidbits of information to pickup and spin around in your mind's eye.

Thanks to the author for the effort to compile it all, I enjoyed the read and appreciated the knowledge that was shared. I look forward to reading your other books about your adventures in Tokyo Express.

Wow RESPECT! Being able to fully follow your dream, building a catamaran all by yourself and also have the talent to write the details and story behind it. Really interesting if you want to build a boat or if you want to get inspired to live your dreams.

This book lays out in personal terms the challenges and rewards he experienced building his own sailing yacht almost singlehandedly. When coupled with his Youtube vids it also provides an excellent how to guide to assist you in building your own. But what I liked most about the book was that it made me take another look at e-glass construction which I had long since written off as old tech. Subsequent research has shown me that e-glass has the same strength by volume as steel with only 1/3 the weight. Thus a skin of e-glass firmly bonded to a substrate like marine grade plywood is the structural equivalent of 1/16th" steel cladding that can be draped and then painted on with ordinary skills and tooling. The ease with which ordinary people can construct safe, strong, durable, lightweight watercrafts utilizing these materials was surprising, even shocking to me.
