We always knew our new boat had to be a Deck Saloon. Why? Because we want to live 100% off-grid. In this video, we tackle one of the most stressful parts of the build: the aluminum roof.
From engineering a custom trim to collect every drop of rainwater to creating enough surface area for over 3,000W of solar power, we’re pushing the limits of what a monohull can do.

We are Duca and Roberta, a Brazilian couple that during a sabbatical trip in 2016 decided to follow our dream. So, we created “Odd Life Crafting”, a project composed of many smaller projects that we call seasons.
The first one was the creation of Odd Life Crafting. The idea was to build a metal boat to be able to travel the world taking our house with us, but we didn’t have money for that. So, we started the next season: we built a tiny shipping container house with no prior experience in building to gain some skills to build a boat. When we were almost finished we found a boat 700km away from our hometown that was neglected for over 22 years and we spent 2 years refitting her (Season 3). On the season 4 we sailed for 2 years (exploring the Brazilian coast and part of the Caribbean), we sold our boat and we moved to Europe. The last season we are starting to build a new aluminum 43ft sailboat and a new life.
We hope to inspire others to follow their dreams.
