Building the TotalBoat work skiff - Inventing the hardware (Episode 31)

We're back cranking on our TotalBoat skiff build, it's time to install the hardware needed to fasten and secure the spring lines once the boat is in the water. By substituting plastic through hull fittings for much more expensive Hawes pipe fittings, we've fashioned our own holes that allow us to run a line down through the top gunwale and tie off below. This keeps the coverboard free of any and all obstructive hardware. Using a hole saw and a little effort, we now have a much cleaner design for tying up our TotalBoat work skiff. Don't forget to join us and come check out the TotalBoat work skiff and meet Louis and the TotalBoat team April 22nd at the Jamestown Distributors Annual Tent Sale in Bristol, RI.
