Stephen Denette and Alix Kreder are building a 38-foot Atkins ketch sailboat named Arabella by cutting down trees in Stephen's backyard. After three years, the boat is still in the shed. The Acorn to Arabella creators quit their jobs to work on the boat frame full-time in frigid rural western Massachusetts. Neither of them know how to sail, but they will surely sail around the world once they finish the boat in 2-10 years. At least, that is what they say. Linus Wilson argues that this is a really slow way to go sailing.
There are pictures of Abhilash Tomy's wooden boat built in India before it was lost in the 2018 GGR race.
