- In this video, Rebedding the V-Berth HATCH - Cruising Sailboat Refit Continued, I re-bed the v-berth hatch. We have Balachandra moved into the marina work yard where I can have access to power and water and wherer there is an environmental drop-sheet underneath the boat for doing bottom work. Once in the work yard I proceed to clean the entire outside of the boat.

In August of 2017 we sold everything and moved aboard Balachandra, a 1986 C&C44 sailboat. After 2 fridgid Canadian winters in the North Atlantic we untied the lines and headed south to cruise in the Caribbean for another 2 years, exploring as far as Grenada. Sailing Balachandra is our CZcams sailing vlog inspired by other great channels such as Delos, La Vagabonde, Sailing Uma and Project Atticus, we document the sailing adventures of myself (Dan) and my partner Nawal as we navigate the globe. We also dive into lots of DIY boat projects both above and below decks, and share with you all of the pros, cons, costs, essentials, trials and tribulations of living aboard a sailboat full time.

🇨🇦 cool you are on the hard next to a Yankee Clipper 41 - my parents took us (4 kids) sailing for a year from Toronto to the Bahamas 🇧🇸 in 1977/78 !! One of THE best years of my life, I'm 60 now and seeing that boat in your background has brought back many great memories !!! Glad to see you are working on Balachandra.
That's awesome! Thanks for watching and commenting :)
I do boat repair and that is completely acceptable with a good result. Life seal is an amazing material to work with and black. 5200 is mental. Life seal is way more flexible, and a companionway hatch pos 45° is the perfect application.
Tsym for continuing your uploads. Please continue
Great job rebedding the hatch. Video is well done. Thank you Dan.
The hatch looks great, nice job.
Boat is starting to take shape! I have been interested in your feedback with regards to the Total Boat products, since you mentioned them while in Nova Scotia. You've always been very transparent with your opinions. I said to my bride, 'if Dan likes them, then we will give them a shot."
Thanks! I research everything and talk to a lot of other cruisers before I try new products. A LOT of people in the US go with total boat over west system and evercoat, etc. The main difference is price - so i keep hearing
Thanks for the video! New sailor here... I guess I am buying bunch of Butyl Tape...:) Too bad Total Boat do not have distributor in Canada.
Great hatch work. Still curious where the mystery “Bubbler marina” in the Halifax area is :)
Just a guess on my part but I'm thinking Armdale.
@@allanrheaume5549 I’m was also thinking Armdale, but alas, no luck
@@allanrheaume5549 I stand corrected. Armdale does have one
