    Enjoying this greatly. While I do dearly love my other restoring boat channels that have taken years to get where there are (it takes a village and not everyone has said village immediately at hand). It is rather amazing to watch a shop with many skilled individuals and a deadline rip through a project and restore a hsitoric vessel.

  • @edwardtimberlake4646
    @edwardtimberlake4646 Před 15 dny

    Good to catch up, and see new wood being prepped and fitted. Hope that you will not mind me saying, that I am finding it hard to follow, largely because there is so much rotted timber, and understanding what and how it will be replaced without loosing the shape of the ship. There is some synergy with the way that Yaba was rebuilt. Keep up the good work. Great stuff.

    I did a little bit of it on the fish boat i worked on before the fishing season. It's not hard work but its back breaking. I watch the Tally Ho crew doing that hull and could feel the pain in my back and knees. 😂

    • @FavouriteBoatworks
      @FavouriteBoatworks Před 22 dny

      Isn’t backbreaking basically a synonym of hard work? 😉

    • @quarlow1215
      @quarlow1215 Před 21 dnem

      @@FavouriteBoatworks Touche. Allow me to be more specific. It's hard on the back. But it's not hard work. The odd angles and the fact that the perfect height is only perfect for a few boards width then you are reaching or stooping. Sorry I misspoke, it won't happen again.

  • @motorv8N
    @motorv8N Před 22 dny

    Another great episode - thanks! And what a fantastic learning setup. Looking forward to seeing more. (I assume by now you’ve determined this boat is salvageable? In an earlier episode I think someone said you’d do only so much disassembly then make a call…)

    • @FavouriteBoatworks
      @FavouriteBoatworks Před 22 dny

      She can and will be restored, the big question mark has been regarding how much can be saved, this will be clarified in the next couple of months, or you can check out the patreon where we share more up to date information (the channel is about 2 months behind)

  • @andrewsnow7386
    @andrewsnow7386 Před 23 dny

    Years ago, I did a little corking on the Adventuress (Seattle). As I remember, we were trained to do it with wet bottom paint in the seam. Is this how you plan to do it, or are there different opinions on the proper way to do it?

    • @Deanmachine667
      @Deanmachine667 Před 22 dny

      The cotton absorbs a lot of water. Any paint over freshly set cotton will keep the cotton dry through the morning dew. Under the water bottom paint is a great choice because you’ll be painting it with bottom paint plus if the worms get that far it will detour them from the cotton( worms love cotton). Above the water some topside paint or primer works great.
