Hello my friends! Josh here, 49 days non stop! The biggest push of our lives transforming this Kelsall KSS-56 catamaran from an abandoned wreck to a sound hull. We are all in, we are in debt and we don’t just want this project to work we desperately NEED it to work. This weeks episode is live on YT as we push on in our mammoth project and also towards 100K subs 🤯🦎🫠🫶🏼⚡️we are shagged but oh so happy to be here sharing this journey with you ❤️❤️

It's coming to the pointy end of the boatyard arrow...and we're pointing it directly to all of the final jobs that have been hanging overhead. This week, Pho...

Can’t believe it’s been 5 years on Innerbloom! This is our first and final boat tour of our classic Adams 35. If you want a peek inside our home that’s sailed us 6000+ miles, taken us through the Tasman to Lord Howe Island keeping us safe and comfortable for all our years aboard come have a squizz! I’ll post the link to Innerbloom boat advertisement in the comments below, she’s looking for her next adventure❤️

Hey Crew Josh here, Phoebe has edited another cracker video this week. It’s a real mixed bag with a grouse soundtrack, I love this episode and we hope do to 🦎

Hey crew! Josh here… This week is a heavy one, blood sweat and sanding. We are doing our best to smash through the work but this is the hardest job yet, the physical demands of sanding a catamaran of this scale has been almost too much. We are tired, we are sore but we are pushing on! Join us for the highs and lows on YouTube

Look, we’re good at lots of things, but sanding our foam sandwich KSS 56?? Not so much. Our Adams35 Innerbloom was steel - we know how to handle it, we know ...

Hey crew Josh here! I’ve dreamt of this day since we started the project, getting both our 75hp turbo diesel Volvo Penta motors running was a job that wouldn’t have been possible without the help of one special man. Cheers to Brett for volunteering his 38 years of mechanical experience on the KSS and bringing the motors that will show us the world (when we can’t sail) back to life. Yaahoooooooooo!!!!!!

FINALLY! What a relief to have both of our Volvo Penta D275 engines working after 15years idle and forgotten. This episode is another nitty gritty dive into ...

Hello dear friends! Josh here, we took a massive gamble on this boat having just four hours to inspect before making the call to jump in at auction. Something that lay over our heads constantly was the state of these engines, when my mind wondered I would ponder. Would we be able to bring them back to life, would I have the skills necessary, how would we afford new ones if these weren’t any good? This episode we learn our fate there’s good news, there’s bad news and there I is one bloke who makes it all manageable.
Argggggh!

It all comes down to this! Learning firsthand from Brett makes our attempts at the engines a couple of weeks ago seem like childsplay. This is the episode we...

Hey crew!! Josh here, if you’ve been waiting to see us build the missing rudders for our new KSS-57 then this is the episode for you! All our effort and time planning and designing these crucial bits of equipment has come together in one episode. We are so bloody stoked to be sharing this with you guys 😆🩵

Last week we started the work on our rudder tangs - shaping and gluing Coosa board as per the advice from fellow yachtsman. But when you're working with new-...

Rudders have been our number one priority on this abandoned catamaran rebuild - and since we were quoted $50,000 to have them made, we’ve decided to take the...

Hey guys! Josh here, this video really captures life cruising aboard our 35ft Adams. Island hopping the Great Barrier Reef with our lizard, stopping to explore along the way and cherishing the moments in between. It’s taken two years for me to get Phoebe on a memorable fish (doesn’t help that I struggle to catch them myself 😅) but it was worth the wait. This is a video we will look back on with fond memories in years to come!
Ps we had to delete and reupload this episode as the original was flagged for nudity, 350gb later and two uploads it was flagged again 🫠 don’t mind the blurs, enjoy the ride!

This week, everything came together - a cracking downwind sail, fishing along the reef and mangroves and creating the kind of memories that stay with you for...

Hey crew! Josh here, this week we are up the creek without a rudder (I’ve been waiting so long to say that) but seriously we bought this KSS-58 and she has no rudders! It’s one of the big unknowns on this project as we have come from a steel boat background with our Adams 35. That means we have no glassing experience and have never worked with foam. This project requires us to be learning everything on the fly, including how to design the rudders. Because yep, we don’t have boat plans either! How will we do it? Jump in to find out 😁

This week we’re tackling what might be the biggest challenge of our project so far: designing the rudders for our Derek Kelsall catamaran. With just 6 weeks ...
