You might have bought a two quid brush............lol.
Keeping the cost down 🤣🤣⛵️🙏
Keep on sanding.....................lol.
Love that sanding I do 🤣🤣🙏⛵️
Good job, well done.
I will keep at it, thank you 🙏🙏⛵️⛵️⛵️
Please keep these videos coming. I’ve never been more invested in something I couldn’t have cared less about until CZcams’s algorithm put this in front of me!
I will 100% be keeping them coming, and I definitely appreciate you being here, the little yacht will live once more 🙏🙏⛵️
Don't know what the problem is with bathroom sealant its waterproof.🤣
A cheap party tent might help to keep things dry. You could temporarily tie or hard mount the legs to the boat with some additional framing, or to something else that is heavy or anchored to the ground.
Definitely the way forward, currently red hot and dry you just can’t win 🤣⛵️⛵️
@@BoatzUK I know, I am from the Netherlands. We pretty much had the same bad weather as in the UK. A week ago it was 61F or 16C. I have the idea from Leo and the Tally Ho. They made a temporarily tent construction on top of the hull so that they could finish the work that needed to be done outside. But don't worry about the rain, because sadly enough plenty more rain is on its way.
@insAneTunA I know it’s forecast for tomorrow 🌧️ when I have time it rains and when I have to work it’s beautiful weather 🤣 can’t win, need a big storage unit to resolve all my weather problems and I then do more projects 🙏⛵️🤣
if i wasn't broke i would buy you one of those little portable carports. the ones that have a metal frame and a canvas or tarp style skin that you can roll the sides up or down. that way you can work when you have time, even if it's pouring rain. but unfortunately i am soooo broke lol
Thank you for even thinking about doing that🙏 I was thinking of buying one months ago but thought it’s ok it’s almost summer 🤣🤣 then it didn’t stop raining 🤣 just you watching and supporting is good enough for me 🙏⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️
@@BoatzUK i'll trad your rain for this desert heat. we've had highs of about 38-40c or so for about 70% of the last 2 months, and it's not cooling off any time soon
@PKAdventures I would say your lucky but that sound a bit to hot for me 🤣🤣
@@BoatzUK _rolls eyes_ lava
WOOOOO! glad to see another video on my favorite little submarine!
Hey, hope you are well, its good to be back ⛵️🙏🙏🙏
@@BoatzUK i'm good, but unfortunately i missed a boat auction i was waiting for, and they happened to have a little Catalina 25 pop top that they started bidding at $400 and noone took it cuz they were all waiting for the Catalina 30 and a couple other boats. if i hadn't missed the auction i would have 100% taken that little sailboat. so overall i'm good, but very bummed i had to miss that auction
@@PKAdventures they will always be more little boats for sale so don’t worry the right boat will come and it will be worth the wait ⛵️🙏
A yacht with a swimming pool? Dead posh, that!
A swimming pool comes as standard here at Preston with our weather 🤣🤣
What were your yard storage fees for the year that you left the boat ?
The boat belonged to the marina at that point as it was abandoned by the previous owner so they was no fees ⛵️🙏
Nice TUDOR🙂
Ohh thank you 🤩
you'd get a lot more work done if you just stopped talking
🤣 I am not for everyone ⛵️
i have been looking forward to this, keep it going
Thank you 🙏 ⛵️⛵️⛵️
Great little update on the £1 boat ⛴️👍🏻
Thank you it’s good to be back 🙏⛵️⛵️
Argh, an English summer, not. When you prep the cabin top for new windows sand back to good fibreglass, fill the screw holes with epoxy get new tinted polycarbonate cut to your templates and use Sikaflex 295 and its compatible primer Sika 209D to glue and seal your new windows to the cabin top. Do not use any screws or fastenings, they will just cause leaks as the boat flexes when it's sailing. Make sure you follow the data sheets for these products. Used this system on our 40 footer and it's been on there for 10 years with not a drop inside.
This is brilliant advice and definitely sounds the best way to do this job, I will be following your process thank you for this information 🙏🙏🙏⛵️⛵️⛵️
Probably told you before, lucky bugga get a yacht for a cupla bucks, maybe not so lucky with the condition even with the dunny. But it started me lookin for one of my own. Haven't found one yet, still lookin but, no luck yet, In a northern state like Qld. if ya can find'm. Wondered what happened m8 but, I got no complaints this end. Even if you got a credit/debit card, you still got to put foldin stuff in ya pocket. Ya gotta eat, pay bills and keep a roof overya head! 11:21in Yeh already done that m8 😉 Thanks m8, keep up the good work, stay vertical Eh!
Thank you 🙏 work life always gets in the way of a fun little project 🤣 but got to keep on earning, great to have you here as always and I will see you on the next instalment 🙏⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️
Admirable perseverance Cliffy... 👊😎
Thank you Mate hope you are well 🙏⛵️⛵️
I know exactly nothing about boating but have been waiting to watch the next instalment, I’ve got plenty of patience so looking forward to as and when you do next update. Would love to do a project like this myself though.
Thank you for being here 🙏 it can be great fun when it doesn’t rain 🤣⛵️⛵️
Scrubbing brush for £1.49! You'd of happily paid an extra penny for them to use glue under its handle😁
🤣🤣🤣 they definitely didn’t add any glue, and it was more expensive than the boat 🤣⛵️⛵️⛵️
Im surprised you managed to get any content out as its been raining constantly this WHOLE year....the farmers are gonna be out of business if it keeps on. I cant remember in my lifetime the lack of sunshine and the ENDLESS DAYS OF RAIN and we have had it for YEARS now.
It’s definitely not been a great start to this year so far but all I can do is wish for some sun ☀️ 🤣🙏⛵️⛵️
Good to see you back, had us worried for a minute! Similarly between naffing work, and the delightful Scottish weather ( we got our summer in May, it was a Wednesday) I’m beginning to forget what my wee boat looks like 😢 🛥️🏴
Can completely agree with our summer that one day of it so far, can’t wait to see the sun in the sky if it actually happens this year, hope you are well ⛵️🛥️🙏
I enjoy watching you restore this little boat 😊
Thank you 🙏 ⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️
Why so fucking long to videos ? So darn interesting
Bro I will keep it coming 🤣🤣 work got in the way 🤣🤣🙏🙏⛵️⛵️⛵️
Ooops, apologies, that sanding was us on Parrot there in the background 😂😂 at least it gave your viewers the idea what sanding footage they missed 🙈let us know when the weather improves, so we can be back to continue too 😂
🤣🤣 that’s good to hear the sander going in the background as it means there’s progress happening and that’s a good feeling, and I don’t miss the sanding 🤣 I will keep you posted on our weather ⛵️🙏
You will crush the carpal nerves in you hand by hitting the screw driver with your palm.
I know I always manage to injure myself somehow and need to be a little more careful of tool management 🤣⛵️🙏
Bad news, weathers probably still dodgy.
This year so far feels like a washout for us ⛵️🙏
Great to see you mate progress progress progress 👍🏼
Thanks Simon I need to keep on moving 🤣🙏⛵️
Keep on there!!
Thank you 🙏 ⛵️⛵️
Isn't it a good idea to remove all stainless steel hand rails?
Yes but some of them are not accessible so will Only remove what I can ⛵️🙏🙏
No sweat, I just assumed you were waiting for a dry day…… 👍👍
Not many dry days for our British summertime so far 🤣🙏⛵️⛵️
I’d give up on this channel !!
Glad your back, just work got in the way 🤣⛵️🙏🙏
🦘👍🇦🇺
Good to hear from you Craig 🙏⛵️⛵️😊
I thought you gave up on this lol
Life took over with work 🤣🤣 she will sail again 🤣⛵️🙏🙏 thanks for being here 😊
Yeah a new episode. A great series. Thank you for Uploading! :)
Thank you I am looking forward to seeing her with some paint on ⛵️🙏🙏 thanks for being here and your support 🙏⛵️⛵️
Not really interested in yachts, but really enjoying the videos 🙂
I really enjoy you being here and thank you so much for your support, I will keep up the work and it’s great to have some support as this is what keeps me going 🙏⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️😊
Keep doing what you're doing and stick at it.... Nice little sailing boat.
Thank you for your comment it’s great to have you here ⛵️⛵️🙏🙏
Have you removed all the deck fittings prior to painting? It will make work so much easier. A proper 'because we can' and not 'because we need to'.
Well 🤣 I did try and remove a lot of the deck fittings but some are completely covered to get to the bolts I will be revisiting them so see if I can get as much as possible removed, because I can 🤣🤣 or can not 🤣⛵️🙏🙏🙏🙏😊
Just to let you know, I thoroughly enjoy the vids you make showing you bringing this little yacht back to life. Maybe it won't be 'as new', but 'fit to be sailed in' seems good enough to me!
Thank you 🙏 hopefully it will a great little boat when she is completed ⛵️🙏
At our age you do tend to miss a few screws 😂 unlike the younger years when ya screwed everything 😂
🤣🤣 age is definitely catching up ⛵️🙏🙏
Did you find out what made it sink in the first place?
Yes poor maintenance, none working bilge pump, way to much weight on the transom and holes in the transom also to top it off the cockpit drains was blocked and bad weather and heavy rain the day it sank ⛵️🙏
@@BoatzUK yip that will do it 😁
Weather like in Saint Petersburg Russia ))
Definitely raining almost everyday in our lovely summer 🤣⛵️🙏
Fair play to you lad, most people would have scrapped that poor little beauty. Can’t wait to see her come back to life
It was definitely close to scrap but we shall rebuild 🤣⛵️🙏
Good to see you back on the £1 job 👍 Was beginning to think it had gone the way of many other CZcams projects that never get completed. Looking forward to seeing it in primer 😊
Thank you I can’t wait to see some colour 🤣⛵️🙏
Worst part about the brush breaking was that it cost more than a yacht 😂
🤣🤣🤣 I wished I had said that in the video, you beat me to it 🤣🙏🙏⛵️⛵️⛵️
Bloody heck, so much crappy paint removed the boat must weigh less, might go faster! So far so good keep at it.
Thank you 🙏 she is definitely a lot better already but still a long way to go 🙏⛵️⛵️
Hi Cliff at least you made some progress mate, the weather is an absolute joke, still waiting for the summer to start, we had rain and big hailstones last week so loud on the workshop roof I had to turn the radio 📻 up lol 😂 good luck with the priming and hope you and your family have a great weekend cheers 🍻
Thanks Paul, I have next week to make some progress so a bit more sanding to do and little more filling and fairing and should be good to go just need a dry day 🤣 have a great weekend ⛵️⛵️🙏🙏
Nice video, nice boat, hope you'll be back again soon. Subscribed

That is my favourite song and I named a previous boat after that song, definitely a great name and great song 🙏🙏🙏⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️
@@BoatzUK She looked so undignified, sunk in the marina and then with rust, flaking paint etc, you are kind of giving her, her dignity back
@portfarm definitely a great name ⛵️😊😊
It's great to see an abandoned object being restored, what ever it is. No problem with delays. It can be a chore or it wont get finished.
Thank you Joe, work life balance has slowed progress lately but I am back on her to get some work done and move forward with this little Yacht ⛵️🙏🙏
