The Project
Over the course of more than a year, we’ve been building a quonset-hut style shop to be used for welding on skiffs, creating any number of things for our remote life, hanging nets, and storing gear. It started in January 2021 with organizing shipping by barge from Seattle to Kodiak of the many crates with thousands of pounds of metal to be bolted together. A smaller fishing boat then hauled it to our beach where we unloaded the pieces by hand. Building started last spring with clearing a foundation and placing pilings, and a year later we’re finally enclosed and using the space!
