We brought in the big guns to build the cabinets for our homes! These four guys arrived at the factory a few days ago and have been working like lightning so far. We felt that it was a good idea to bring in cabinet specialists who are masters of cabinetry so that we could have […]
The EcoPod bathroom is coming along nicely and Grant is back at the factory to give us a quick update on the progress. We have put lots of thought into the design of every aspect of the home, including the bathroom and we think that the experience will be like no other.The bathroom sink area […]
The time has come to get the spars on the TriPod base painted! As you can see in the video below, the steel looks rusty. This is just surface rust that is totally normal and doesn’t affect the structural integrity of the steel. It is unavoidable in the humid climate we are working in here […]
Another day, another set of challenges to overcome, and another successful job done by the Ocean Builders crew. We got the hot tub lounge and the hot tub installed on the outer spar.This proved to be difficult for a few reasons. The first is that we are working several meters above the ground. So everything […]
Grant and Richard did a bit of testing to show the benefits of the special concrete mix that we are using for the docks compared to a normal concrete mix. Our mix has four additives that have different benefits. It has fibers to hold everything together, a superplasticizer to add strength and reduce the water […]
We have our 3D printer up and running and we are starting to produce coral habitats! This 3D printing project has been in the hands of Arianna and she has been doing a fantastic job. Using a 3D printer like this is a new experience for all of us but we are adapting well so […]
Now that we have installed the solar station platform on the outer spar, we are moving on to building the frame that will hold the solar panels. Everything is mounted on the outer spar so it will be out of the way and have full sunlight for most of the day.Solar power is a great […]
Grant is back at the factory with Craig who is working on the first rope bridge that we are making for the EcoPod. This bridge will go from the center dock on the floating tripod base to the solar array on the outer spar. The bridge itself is about 21’ long and uses stainless steel […]
We are finally starting to install the first windows into the EcoPod! This project has been more than a year in the making and we are very excited to reach this massive milestone. We finished up the ceilings and now it’s time to move on to the windows. The EcoPod is still on land so […]
A normal home on land is generally securely built into the ground and won’t move, but that is not the case with a floating home on the water. Keeping the SeaPod stable is important for both comfort and safety so we have decided to use IMU sensors to help monitor the tilt, angular rate, and […]
While the main intention for the SeaPod is to be a sustainable and eco-friendly floating home, there are other use cases for them. One of those options is to use a SeaPod as a floating cafe, restaurant, or bar. You could also have these same concepts on land in the GreenPod configuration.The main area will […]
We have spent more than a year coming up with the design for the Wazebo(water+gazebo) and after plenty of edits and revisions, we have come to a final design that is going to be the perfect outdoor hangout spot.Having a great outdoor living space is so important when living in a tropical area with beautiful […]
Now that we have the new hot tub area completed, it is time to do a test fit to see if we need to make any more adjustments for everything to fit. This circular piece that you see will be like a cushioned bench seat where you can relax and hang your feet over the […]
We recently got a new piece of machinery here at the factory to help us clean the steel and get it ready to work with. This new Laser Steel Cleaning Machine is going to increase the speed of production and make life a whole lot easier for our steel department!Our factory is located in Panama […]
We recently did the first test run with our new fiberglass spray gun and things went great. Now, it is time to put it to work to make a floor for the SeaPod. This was the first “real world” test of the spray gun and we are very happy with the results.Our old method of […]
Grant is back with a big update from the factory about the EcoPod. The ceilings are almost finished! Most of the ceilings are done and we just have a few small areas to wrap up. The crew has been working hard to get everything put together and we are making great progress! Having the ceiling […]
Our homes are packed to the gills with technology and home automation features, but we don’t have things like light switches since everything is controlled through the home automation app.Since everything goes through the home automation system, it can all be controlled from your smartphone but we also wanted to have hard-wired control tablets conveniently […]
Efficiency is the name of the game when it comes to having a small off-grid home like the SeaPod. We want to minimize every bit of energy that we use so that we can keep things cheaper and less wasteful which will lead to the home being more eco-friendly. Having on-demand hot water is a […]
We are getting down to crunch time before our big online launch event and we still have lots to do! One thing that the crew has been working hard on is getting the Wazebo ready. We want to have the Wazebo installed and ready to go on our floating TriPod base for our launch so […]

Grant Romundt Construction
Grant is back at the factory with an update on the SeaPod prototype. The final floor section is going in! This last piece is part of the bedroom floor on the top level. Just like installing floors in a traditional home, the final piece is usually the hardest to get in and this was no […]
