I'm Paul Bennett, a retired naval architect and marine engineer. I'm also a boat builder.This channel is all about DIY boat building, repair, related projects, and of course, sailing. I offer some tutorials, however most other videos are for your entertainment. Your questions and comments are always welcomed ( I read and respond to all of them). It's also very important for viewers to "Like" (thumbs up or down) on each video, plus hitting the subscribe button, "ringing the bell, and "sharing" my videos in order to help me continue producing video content. Adding comments is also very important. This is a painless and cost-free way to help support the channel.
