Wooden Boat Building Ep. 22: Mast Construction

Laminating the mast makes it stronger and more rigid. Sealing it with a few coats of epoxy protects the wood from exchanging moisture with the environment. Thanks to my neighbor, I could use his hydraulic cramping press to secure the 3mm steel shrouds. Here I am also hoisting the headsail for the first time. Thank you Supreme Sails for custom cutting them: http://www.supreme.si/
