Definitely yes to the splicing series, please. My wife and I were joking that never mind Bear Grilles or Ant Partington, we would choose Magnus. your knowledge on seemingly everything is incredible.
We had an engine fill with water at sea during a delivery. It took a long time to sort everything out as the boat rolled constantly. I think a splicing video would be welcomed by many viewers. I've made a ton of splices for other vessels because the owners didn't know how.
Yeah! Bring on the splice videos! Troy (Free Range Sailing) had some great demonstrations of knot tying - worth a look. Like yourself, he's a natural communicator.
Lucky to find that water when you did. Those alloy backleak rail washers on the injectors are only meant to be a one time use item, but as you only really disturbed just the one it shouldnt leak. Any diesel shop will have replacements if needed, the same washers fit every small engine regardless of make with P-size injectors like yours has. Did you test the glowplugs before reinstalling them.? Should invest in a 21mm or 22mm deep socket to remove the injectors as a whole unit rather than stripping in place. Need to get a few hours on the engine after its little swallow of seawater.
Cool Vid! I think that the water in the engine would have stopped me dead in my tracks... BTW the Dyneema splice you've made looks like a Brummel eye splice to me Magnus.
Hi Magnus Well spotted with the water in the engine before cranking. I've had two of those Trusdesign siphon breaks fail the same way! Luckily they didnt move below water line. But it is going to be a royal pain replacing them.
Damn good idea to do a splicing video, you are gifted with so many skills and I am sure it will be apreciated to share them, you deserve far higher views so it may help the algorythm.
Love the videos, only recently found your channel and finished the Kimberley adventure. The new Nutshell decal looks amazing, look forward to your splicing video as it's something I've always wanted to learn.. safe travels and have fun, Cheers..
Hey guy's thanks for another great episode and thanks for the useful information about water in the engine really well explained 👍 safe travels and enjoy mate cheers 🍻
Do you have filters to remove water before the diesel enters the engine. I hada Volvo Penta and they were very pro be to stopping when shaken up by a heavy sea
Maybe I missed but how did the water get in the engine? Magnus can fix anything I love watching him always coming up with the solutions to the problems!
Bravo on the splicing video that you can follow. Most of them skip the critical bit, without which your splice is absolute shite. I well remember it taking me AGES to make sense of a basic eye splice in three strand. I could never figure out the third strand, as there never seemed to be an adjacent strand to tuck it under that didn’t already have a strand ticked under! Finally I got there, but no thanks to about 50 videos!
Why did you dissassemble that injector insitue & not just remove it from the head ? Was the injector in the way & not allowing you to remove the head bolt ?
Magnus didn’t have the correct spanner to get the injector out in one go. He had to disassemble it in situ so that he could get to the bottom of the injector to remove it to get access to the head bolt. We tried to buy the correct spanner but it wasn’t available. W.

Magnus is a master! He’s also fortunate to have such a great partner in Wendy! Best wishes to you both for your new adventure!
Thank you, Karl. We are now in Indonesia and enjoying the differentness of everything. W.
Splice us Magnus! Most definitely would absorb and share,share, share! Good job on discovering the siphon. Thanks as always for sharing guys.
Hello you two, thanks for the engine and splice info. A splice in time save the rice and wine. What the hell am I talking about.😂 see y a
Thanks for watching and commenting, Jim. W.
I think he needs to help old sea dog. Berry can’t do much. Mag is very smart

Hi, guys, again thank you for the info looking forward to the Splice series.
Travel safe cheers.

Dodged a bullet there.😳
We certainly did! W.
Very lucky with the water, please be careful with MEK , great solvent but you need gloves, it can cause many problems

Welcome aboard! Thanks for joining us. W.
Would love your take on splice and whipping ends etc!
Wright now it says nuts hell Lol
Good spot! W.
Do all these engine pieces have to go back in same order, I would be paranoid!
Lucky catch on the water in the engine, and the only splice I know is a Pine Lime splice

The anti-siphon loop fell off the ‘wall’ and ended up below the waterline. Thanks for your comment. W.
@@LifeinaNutshell gotcha that makes sense! I’m so glad you had notice that before firing the engine!! Be safe out there and enjoy!! 🍻
13:20 chain lube? 🤣

Hi Paul. It’s now definitely on the list! W.
Like the lettering. Good job getting that broken bolt out. How much do you charge?
What plant food do you take on voyage Wend?
I use Osmocote, but please don’t ask me for gardening tips… I’m a black thumb! W.

Salt spray is such a harsh environment..
