It's time to head to Camden, Maine for some dockside boat repairs among the schooners in this very famous and picturesque pocket harbor. The cranse iron, or bowsprit cap, seems to have been a piece that was cast with imperfections. It did serve Victoria for a good long time without issue, and the hardware failure wasn't catastrophic. We don't expect the same thing to happen with other reclaimed pieces of hardware around Arabella.
There's a really sweet Akiva check in at the end of the episode, so if you're a big Akiva fan (or if you have concerns about how he's adjusting to boat life) and want to know how he's doing, do stick around until the very end.

Acorn to Arabella started as a wooden boat building project in Granby, Massachusetts. Steve began the journey as an amateur wooden boat builder crafting a 38' wooden sailboat in his backyard: designer William Atkin's Ingrid with a Stormy Petrel's gaff rig. These videos follow the journey from tree felling, to lumber milling, to lofting, to the lead keel pour and now sailing the boat-sharing details of the woodworking, carpentry, metal smithing, tool building, and tool maintenance that traditional wooden boats command. This ultimate DIY project continues beyond the boat shop, as Steve and crew travel and learn to cruise aboard the handmade wooden boat that they've built. Just kidding about all that, this channel is about a Siberian Laika named Akiva.
