    The sheer clamps are long timbers that run the full length of the ship and define the final shape. Logan, Dylan, and Davys discuss steaming these tropical hardwoods, installing them and working in the shipyard. These timbers are part of the support system for the top deck and is a big milestone in the progress of building Ceiba.

    We are in the construction phase of building a 150', wooden, three-masted square topsail schooner here in Costa Rica to sail sustainably sourced and ethically produced CARGO along the Pacific Coast of the Americas using sail and a 100% Electric Engine.
    All of our progress is funded by people like you investing in shares!

    All your videos are like you are shooting a commercial or a film trailer. I Would really love to see you actually document the actual building of the ship. How a given job is done from start to finish, seeing the work done, how it connects to what needs to be done next. Everything is very beautiful here, but it doesn't give a lot of the experience of the actual building. I think you are missing out on additional income streams for the project too, but so undervaluing this. Your project is amazing, I just wish it had a better narrative here.

      They're usually dipped in Tar and then the head and nut are painted over with Tar too, although in the old days of Sail they would be Copper which would Verdigris and Crode, so it's a chance that has to be taken with regular inspections.

    Imagine if our species decided we no longer want to be selfish and greedy. We start re-using traditional sail cargo, solar power, and focus on super high efficiently engines. Look electric cars r cool but batteries aren't even close. We can make synthetic fuels that burn clean at over 50% thermal efficiently. Poor ppl will NOT buy used electric cars as the batteries after 10-15yrs will be dead amd thousands of dollars. So they r throw away cars that if u factor in environmental impact of building batteries and disposing of them is a huge issue. My.point is re use things. Make things fixable. Best recycling you can do is NOT buy a new car, phone, appliance, water bottle that you are just gona throw away in few years. Fix stuff make it last=less waste=less damage to planet.

      I think the point was to build with all-natural materials using a sustainable model, which I don't personally see as viable as a business in the western hemisphere, premium sail-delivered commodities already being a thing, but I do see your point too. There are thousands of hand-made dhows already built and available.
      The videos do a disservice to the concept, IMO, being so artsy fartsy and they somehow make the people involved less likeable. For all that I'm 100% sure they don't intend it at all, there's some White Savior complex which hopefully is just an artifact of the style-over-substance video style.

      We are a shipping company offering zero emission purpose built ships and logistic services. Our building professionals are brought on for specific positions as needed.
      There is not a significant history of cargo ship building in Costa Rica so many positions are passed on to foreign experts. However when it is possible to hire from within our region we do so. We also prefer to train our own employees up, however this is a long process, and we are a for-profit investor funded company, so this is done on a case-by-case basis. Our investors expect the ship to be completed in a timely manner thus we use professionals when possible.
      However we also feel obligated to give back to our community. This is why we have started the non-profit association AstilleroVerde which offers continuing education courses such as small boat building, metal working, English courses, bread making and tree planting, at our shipyard. Follow them on Facebook or visit astilleroverde.org to learn more. AstilleroVerde is donation funded so as to be independent from our investors financial interest. Although many of our investors donate to AstilleroVerde as well.
      Consider making a donation to AstilleroVerde to support their educational programs.

Sadly there will never be no locals employed here unless it's cheap labor. This project is for who you know and not what you know.

      Why bother to comment. This is part of a movement and certainly not the only project with a similar vision. It is not just a eco-friendly vision, but a practical answer to rising fuel costs and tightened environmental regulations. I read that a 28-day round trip for a large cargo carrier could cost more that $3M for fuel alone. A new Swedish venture aimed as carrying automobiles is projected to take 12 days to sail the Atlantic, versus the 8 days standard ships take. Not that much difference when the fuel cost savings is figured. It is nice that someone is looking for cheaper, cleaner alternatives to the current business model. www.reuters.com/article/sweden-shipping-climatechange/back-to-the-future-swedish-firm-bets-on-wind-powered-cargo-ships-idUSKBN28J1XE

    Your efforts are extraordinary. But if your team want to use computers, eat food, drive vehicles for the project, use light at night and buy all the equipment you need to build this boat then you have to accept modern power generation and shipping benefits. The job your little boat will do is commendable but its out of date for what you need to transport coffee to provide an income for the Costa Rican people. Its great as a charter boat for tourists. Like many well meaning projects you are using the very advantages of modern living to support your idealistic enterprises. If you finance the whole thing then OK do it. But you call for money in every episode. What possible benefit is it for me to give you money when it benefits a few people on the Earth. I would rathe send money to the wretched people in India who can't even breathe. Good luck anyway and I hope one day to hear that your wooden boat is sailing at last.
