We’ve been busy touring you around cool backyard boat builders who are cranking out massive projects that most of you likely enjoy watching because let’s be honest, you won’t likely ever have to muscle a lead ballast keel into place, or approximate the amount of live oak needed to rebuild your historic sailing yacht. With that in mind, today we bring you something a little closer to home for our customers. Because everyone has at least one hatch aboard and after watching this video from Boatworks Today, you’ll understand that it’s got lots of steps, but with the right guidance (these videos) and the right products like TotalBoat Gelcoat, this is a project that most anyone can accomplish.
