The Next Chapter (Seriously?!)
Next story: Sailing Zatara trades ocean crossings for Montana barn framing
Ocean crossings came with night watches. Sailing Zatara's land-based project comes with a laundry room to renovate and holes to drill through steel beams.
"The Next Chapter (Seriously?!)", posted Thursday, follows the family's barn build through wall framing, ceiling joists and a sit-down with Keith. Channel views have climbed to roughly 171,000 a day, about twelve times their usual level, though that total includes the whole catalog rather than this upload alone.
As we reported here, the Z-Crew had already turned to barn framing after selling the boat. The new episode gets further into the practical work of making the space usable: the laundry-room section sits between the opening wall work and the ceiling construction. The description also discloses that some featured products were supplied free or at a discount in exchange for reviews or favorable coverage.
It's a different kind of hands-on life from the one that began when the family sold their suburban Texas home and bought a sailboat without prior sailing experience. The boat has new owners; Keith still has a substantial construction list.
