12 Building A Boat~! [OPEN MINGLE]
WHO: Moana
WHERE: 7i Beach Area [Also around the 7i Boat House & Town looking for stuff]
WHEN: Month of September
OPEN TO: EVERYONE [Feel free to make top posts if you'd like as well. Moana will hit everyone up but this is open to whatever people want.]
WARNINGS: None
Throughout the month, Moana was at the beachfront assembling different parts of a boat. She had the design sketched on few pieces of paper though the sketches were not very good.
She had spoken to a lot of people about building a boat and will accept everyone's help with its construction. They needed pieces of wood, someone to build the hull, stronger materials for the sail, which meant that Moana was back to collecting reeds and stalks that wouldn't absorb the water as it sprayed up from the ocean. She really needed a better drawing of the boat and its design, even if she was bad at trying to explain what she wanted to build. The hull needed to be shaped from a single piece of wood to avoid leaks. As well as the side-canoe that would help keep the craft balanced on rocky waves.
Everything had to be collected from the new parts of the island since it would take too much effort and time to try to carry all the pieces through the now small breach between the canyon walls. When Moana wasn't working the boat she'd watch others work and encourage those around her to join. It was something like an event. If there were enough people come night fall Moana would start a large bone fire and cook fish. She would welcome others to lend a hand in any part of any process. Much like her home, she wanted to build a community of people working together and helping.
She could be spotted around the 7i boathouse looking for any useful materials, as well as rummaging through the other houses on the way back to the beach. She also brought a handful of tools from the inn, including a grappling hook that she had found in the inn's storage closet. Moana wasn't sure how anyone might use it but it looked useful enough to take with her.

"Some water would be good." When did he decide to drink water? Rum is usually his default, but he doesn't want to waste it here, where there's a limited amount of it. How his habits have changed since being here.

"I've been working on the sail for the last few weeks. It's over half done now." She could have used the fabric from a snuggie or a blank at the inn but Moana didn't want anything that would become to heavy while out at sea.

"Good. I should have the rigging done before then."
no subject
"Do you need any help with anything for the rigging?"
no subject
"How far out are you planning on going with this one? I need to know for the rigging."
no subject
It was a legitimate question since she had never considered the distance for the rigging before. "I can alter it if I need too. I've repaired a boat before."

Moana had a knack for sailing and picked it up very quickly. She was the sort of person who learned things by doing them and having that chance made it easier for her.

"This isn't the first time that I'll be sailing on the ocean."
She had done so before she arrived though she knew more now.

He wants to be sure she's thought of all possibilities. He wouldn't be a very good captain if he didn't.

"Even if that were to happen. Having more people wouldn't help." It would only shorten the food supply and make the canoe harder to row. Moana had only fashioned on oar.
