CATAMARAN BUILD – Re-enforcing Our Cockpit Bulkhead (MJ Sailing – Ep 196)

catamaran-build-re-enforcing-our-cockpit-bulkhead-mj-sailing-ep-196

It’s time to work on the bulkhead which separates our salon and cockpit, and we’re going all out on extra fiberglass re-enforcements.

Although *both* sides will get beefed up a little bit, in this episode we focus on the inner facing side of the bulkhead, which will be the entrance to our two queen bunks in the hulls, and will be the aft portion of our salon on the bridge deck.

But, to get away from the work and the heat a little bit, we go for a dreamy sail out of Annapolis on the beautiful Woodwind II. Before we tell you where you may know this boat from, see if you can pick out where you’ve seen it before!

We hope you enjoy!

Much love from Annapolis!
Jessica, Matt & Georgie
