Salt water and electronics rarely mix and the ocean is not friendly with our gear. Things are constantly breaking or rusting apart. These are a few of the things we hope to get to keep bringing Sailing Zephyr to you.

Wow, great job and she looks amazing. You have really worked hard and the results show it.
Thank you so much!
Folding/feathering prop would be a great upgrade
Looks really great. I think I'll buy my wife one of those polishes for her birthday.
You are so meticulous in everything you do....I am impressed!
Thanks Bonnie. 👍
Good progress! If we may offer a little tip on decals for you and your viewers.... Before application, mix washing up liquid with water 1:75 brush or sponge it on the hull infront of the decal as you put it on. This stops the adhesive sticking until you squeegee the water mix out and finally place the decal. It remains movable until squeegeed and a quick rub over with a cloth. The decal will float and bend to your hull shape using this method. Any tiny bubbles will disappear over night. Hope this helps. Sail Safe guys. Ant, Cid and the pooch crew.
Great advice. I think my lack of sleep got the better of me. We will lock that in when we put the new name on the stern. Cheers for the support guys. Much love.
@@SailingZephyr We have done a lot of logos for folks as our daughter has a business in graphics/design. She did our for us too. So if we can be of any help just PM us on FB or contact us through YT. Happy to help FOC . xx
Nat wont recognise Zephyr too shiny 👍🏼will be a nice surprise for her when she gets back.
Great job. The admiral will be happy.
I’ve actually used the McGuires product before. I was pleased with its performance. Cleaning and polishing was always a job I enjoyed mostly from getting to see the end result. Zephyr looks amazing 😊
It was so satisfying to see the transformation. Lots of work, but well worth it. I'd use that brand again for sure. 👍
Top job.... hard work always pays off👌
It looks new - well done !!
Great job, looks amazing......and you will be the only one that sees the splice.
Wow, thanks!
Polishing looks great, got someone doing it for me on mine.
FYI when you're buffing and polishing with a power buffer you better off if you have access to a compressor so you can blow out your wool pads you want them clean or you can scratch your Finnish
Put some locktide on the anode screw.
Great Job!
Thanks Chris! Was pretty satisfying to see the transformation.
Well done with the hull polish looks great. You going to repair reverse parking accident damage same time
Well done, looks like new
Perhaps you can teach me how to do it on a catamaran
Looks great you get a ada boy
Cheers Brad👍
I bought that same Makitta when I moved on my bought and did my 42' boat "ONCE"....then I realized that $800 to $1000 at the time was well worth it!
Haha. It's certainly a lot of work. But it was fun to see the transformation.
wow!!!....i have been neeeeding to do just that to my small dufour!!!
It's incredible the difference polishing makes. Feels like new.
Fantastic job! What about the bottom of the hull and cleaning the propeller while you on the hard?
Bottom was just washed only. Anti-foul was in great shape. See previous video for the propeller. 👍
Great job, now come and do my boat. How about a little grey paint or marker for the splice? Or, I would just wait until it get's damaged, vinyl taped boot stripes do not last long.
The splice.... you overlap and then cut through both layers using an exacto knive or something similar sharp..
Ahhhh! That's such a good idea. I blame lack of sleep. Cheers for the tip. 👍
Can you not mark a like to put your line on ?
I’m interested in traveling on my own boat , how much would yours be worth?
I’ve never sailed before, but I plan on getting lessons next year
Great channel....why the Aussie flag in the background?
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed. Dual citizens. Australia is our home. 👍😉
Have you contacted your credit card company about the chart plotter? If the transaction was fraudulent, the seller sold a refurbished device as new, the credit card company might get your money back or negotiate a settlement. The length of time since purchased might be an issue...
No dice unfortunately. We just have to roll with it for now. Maybe one day we can save enough for new B&G. Stay safe.
Well I've always been in favor of not skimping in your tools your better off buying a more expensive higher quality tool once then a cheaper one that you'll have to replace several times over your life time and Makita build a quality power tool I personally prefer Porter Cable but Makita is a good tool
Boat works toady he is a professional not diy. He is the go to guy anything fiberglass paint varnish'
