I’m currently combining a data protection improvement project with security audits of multiple small to medium charities and we’re also rebuilding our home (a solar powered fossil fuel free widebeam boat). It’s exhausting. I’m also struck by how lack of key skills in some many sectors increases cost and risk!
Don’t know much about boats or boat-building but that sounds pretty cool. You’re building it completely from “scratch” or starting with a base boat of some kind?
We stripped it back to the hull as there were so many issues with the original fit out. The hull was largely fine, we needed a vent hole too close to the waterline closed and a beam where the weld had popped welded, and then it was re-treating the bilge with Lanoguard to prevent rusting, then building from there. The floor is in (using recycled plastic lumber and sheets) first fit electrics hopefully in the next two weeks. It’s a journey :D

Good luck with your refit, mate.
Thanks! Guess who just found notifications in Lemmy :D
