Recently we delivered another off grid Hot tub and Sauna Shepherd's hut. 

The lights are run off of a 12v battery charged with a solar panel, while both the hot tub and the sauna are heated by wood fires. 

The roof also incorporates a glass panel above the hot tub. 

The Shepherd's hut is sat on a recently landscaped area which will look wonderful once the ground cover has regrown.

The hot tub used in this shepherd hut was from: Skargards

The Shepherds hut has a double opening door, 4 opening windows, beds at each end and a wood burning stove. Lights and USB- Double Sockets are all on 230v mains.

We think they did made a great area around the Shepherds Hut.

 February's update:

more pieces of Sapele were added to the sides of the boat to build up what will become the finished gunwale. 

Things have a habit of being put inside the boat when there is 'nowhere else' for them,

Then the decks are fitted with a piece of marine plywood which will form part of the finished deck. 

Strips of cedar will be added to this to make this stronger and add to the finished shape of the boat.

All of the ribs were fitted end of November and into December. Then the ribs were cut back to accommodate added strengthening pieces (the inwales) and then the outwales were added too. These and the top piece that is yet to be fitted make up the gunwales. 

Then the decks start to take shape and we are fast approaching the stage where we really need to pick what will power it.
