Doing the actual build is only a part of the equation, its all the peripheral stuff like driving and fetching materials, getting to the workshop, redesigning a part that is not up to your standard or requirements.

The list of " other " jobs which most people forget to add into the equation because in a factory a dedicated worker would be tasked with these jobs, has to be solved by the builder. It takes a lot of time guys and for anyone planning on building a boat, you should consider before starting. Farrier openly states that buying a used boat is preferable to building as at least you get to go sailing.
