This episode is Part 2 of a 2-part series about fabricating, fitting, and installing the breasthook in my 18’ pocket cruiser sailboat (S/V Ooh-Rah). In Part 1 of this series, I demonstrated how I made the template, milled & prepared the wood used for the breasthook, and cut out the basic shape of the breasthook.

In this episode, I demonstrate how I determined the angles necessary to cut the bevels on the breasthook, set up the band saw to the proper cutting angles, and then the final fitting & installation of the breasthook.

Here’s the video:
