Wedging the inside of the window frames then stuffing them is the outside still flat to put windows back in

Why not patch in some glass brows above the windows may help with leaking windows

Beware. It is not what you pay, is the amount of money you will pour into it ….

theses couples just wonderfull layback taking it easy , why they have to rush it, i like the way just no pressure, thanks for sharing, good luck

Good stuff guys- hate those midgies!

Dont remember now but did you put any parafin oil to that gelcoat? It wont dry without that. Just paint that bilge with epoxy paint. Thanks for good content,best channel on CZcams 👍

Stu, 22:00 you're using that big carpenter pencil while you've got a perfectly good regular pencil on top of your ear.. 👍✏

That gull landed on the right boat , being a seabird ,must be a good luck sign, best of luck .

So, you're putting those drains below the water line. So, unwise.

For all you through haul nah sayers this is a center cockpit. They did it correctly when on a heal it will drain correctly. They ran the lines the correct way. It’s a center cockpit. No they could have done it above waterline but a freaking hose you would be dodging heading to aft. Some people’s kids.

Thank you , great work !

Stewart, we all are very concerned over your latest fall. The cockpit drains look marvelous, great job Martina!

Very nice and interesting works this week, thank you for sharing these beautiful moments with us.

Great episode. Perfect colour for your paint and Marina you have achieved a lovely finish. You are extremely patient and dedicated to your refurbishment of that boat. All you need to do is to get Stuart to stay focused on the important tasks. Not sure that the time spent polishing that SS is time well spent, I assume they will be drilled and welded to the frame, they will need to be polished again perhaps.

The cockpit drains could be tied together with a near horizontal PVC pipe, then use only one down pipe, maybe attached to the same drain as the sinks or shower. Having it under the waterline, it will always have a foot of water in it, not including the extra pressure of water for when you are moving! Lots of good work going on there, nice to see it getting nicer and nicer!

Makes perfect sense now. Thanks

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the thru hulls for your cockpit drains REALLY should be above the waterline. You could tie them together through a single thru hull. Those look like 1.25" (32mm) drains. A 2" (~50mm) thru hull would handle both drains.

Thank you Guys for an excellent Vlog. You may think it may be boring at times for your viewers. But don't you ever think, us viewers watch you because we like the personality that you both portray? That's why we really like. Cheers Guys xx

Good work on the boat and on yt ! :)

Nice instruments (clock and temp/hum) with this little screws on the front side. Have almost the same clock at selmatrudelli but was not able to find temp/hum with that screws. Are that messing instruments someone painted black? Or is that black original?

Thank you for the videos!

Toilet plank not teak. Looks like mahogany.

hey you two lovin all the vids, just wanted to say a huge thanks for the BITE AWAY tip, I'm working in Tahiti at the moment and the mosquitos just love me !! went back to the UK for a short break and saw your last video and bought one of the bite gone things and no itching since many many thanks for that. I'll send something from amazon to say thanks 😉😉😉😉😁😁 keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Hola 😂 para la próxima hagan esa prueba antes de comprar y invertir. 😊

One coat of epoxy = five coats of varnish. When using epoxy as varnish outside do a light sand when the epoxy is dry and finish coat/coats with a spa varnish for the UV protection.

Hola porque estas callada y evitas la lente de la cámara, si se pone regañon lo dejas solo en su bote de plástico 😂 para tenga mas paciencia. Espero que este equivocado 😮.

Si se ve super resistente 😅

Cualquier choque del casco este estaria muy pegado al motor y se debilita mucho la pansa dek velero ⛵ el cual hay ataque de orcas 😅

😂 hola el agua y los botes 😅 no son compatibles cuando hay muchos hoyos de bajo del casco y si el motor necesita pero debe estar al lado y comodo de reparar por alguna averia y para mi logica deveria estar a los costados del casco y si es mejor y mas seguro 🔐 paz buen trabajo .

Se que quedara seguro 🔐 para que flote 😊 buen trabajo ⚒ 😊

😂 gracias por el video, muy importante si algun dia uno preparando 😅 lleva tiempo y experiencia. 😊

An idea of mine, (old experienced sxperimental mechanic) when it comes to cutting out squares of a given structure. DON'T try to drill a hole for the saw NEXT to the edge that you wanna create. Let there be be a bit of a distance and cut it right with the saw. Use the drill just to have a starting polnt for your saw.. It won't cost more than a few seconds and makes the job a lot easier.

I hate it when I need to break something and can't find a handy thing to break!

We used Poly Pox to repair underwater wood that was bored into by wood gribble worms back 35 years ago... I don't think it's available in the USA

Soon, Seabird will be in water ! soon !! This is the weekly dose of making google proud of you ! Go up little video.

Eat marmite to keep those flies at bay

Keep up the good work guys you’re doing great

Don & marina Whitby , loving your journey

Just curious... why didn´t you choose a through hole above the water line for the cockpit drainage ?

We call them no-seems. Cause you can’t see them till they go to bit you then they look like a pac-man fly

Regarding your cockpit drains... I should perhaps qualify the following opinion by mentioning that nearly half a century of professional experience, both at sea and in the design and fitting out of small commercial vessels and ocean going sailing boats, allows me to assure you that your cockpit drains will be absolutely fine as they are. In more detail... The answer to the question of whether or not to cross over the drain hoses varies from boat to boat. The question is resolved by looking carefully at a transverse section of the yacht in way of the cockpit, and at that section examining the relationship between the height of the heeled cockpit sole (i.e. the cockpit "floor") above the heeled waterline. Incidentally, the foregoing examination of the geometrical relationship usually only becomes a critical consideration on small yachts - when (a) the cockpit sole is close to the waterline even when the vessel is on an even keel and (b) the drain hoses exit the vessel close to, or above, the waterline. In your case, however, as your drain hoses drop almost vertically from the cockpit to the skin fittings, the foregoing considerations do not apply. Similarly - because of the near vertical fall of your hoses - there is nothing to be gained by crossing the hoses over (port to starboard and vice-versa). With that in mind, I would strongly suggest that if the crossed hoses are a nuisance in the engine compartment, uncross them: route the port skin fitting to the port cockpit drain, and the starboard skin fitting to the starboard cockpit drain. You'll find that this somewhat simpler - and less space consuming - arrangement will work perfectly well for you on that particular boat. In the event that you doubt me, I suggest you try both options and demonstrate to yourselves that on your boat there's absolutely nothing to be gained by crossing the hoses over! You're doing really well and I hope the foregoing might be of some help to you. Kind regards, Chris.

Why are you crossing them that way. Why not straight down

I admire you both, working together fully committed to your future travels. Can't wait to see you enjoy all your hard work ❤

Nobody talking about the artwork in the background of some of the shots! 😂

Been watching since before you bought the boat. Loving the progress guys! Be sailing before ya know it!

State facendo un lavoro eccezionale amici. Bravi.

Still loving your updates. Really like the little jobs you are doing that will eventually feel so worth while. Have a great week. 😊

I know nothing about keeled boats, but i was expecting some kind of valve for the drains on the deck. Is it really that simple of a mecanism, even when you're in the water? 😮

Hey Guys : I never comment but I want to say you all are great. Down to earth and nice and you're doing a great job on that boat. It's going to be amazing. I've been watching for a while and of course Subscribed & Like each time. :)
