This is the only cruising channel with a master boat wright. glass work is not easy. but you all made it look effortless. Thank you.
I was a boat builder in my day and all I can say is, I would give Aladino a job in a heartbeat.
Great to see the fibreglass expertise on display here. It's not just the incredibly neat outcome, it's the fact that you can stay so calm and meticulous and even give a short interview while being "on the clock" against the resin drying that reveals the depth of experience at work here. The music is tasteful and well-chosen as always.
The more you've done, the more you learn, the easier it gets,
As I watch you two interact as people and as a couple, it reminded me that in english lovers or married people are called a couple, where in Danish, lovers or married people is called a pair, like a pair of shoes, they belong together. You two clearly belongs to each other. Keep up the good work, the good life and dream Blue.
Watching Aladino work it's hard not to ponder the stereotype of a Swiss Watchmaker, albeit a 12M, 10,659Kg watch!
19 years ago today I started a bicycle trip from Morro Bay California to Palm Beach Florida. My world had collapsed around me, and I would be 50 years old in less than a month. I completed the trip and had lots of time to reflect upon what had happened to me and the reaction of strangers to my adventure. If CZcams would have existed back then, I would have considered making a video series about the trip and would have considered continuing indefinitely if I could have gathered an audience as you have done. At almost every town I stopped I found someone who envied my freedom and wished they would or could have the time or courage to do such a thing themselves. It seems you two have stumbled upon the formula that was not possible in my day. All I was doing was processing the loss of my wife and a broken heart. Good luck with your adventure!
Good for you, sir. A big life change involving a cutting loose of long ties can be an invigorating experience, even if it is motivated by loss. Change is tough but you'll instinctively know when it's necessary. Bravo.
Thx Donald! We are lucky indeed and appreciate this opportunity immensely. It’s also what motivates us to work hard.
All the best to you,
Aladino
"I'm going to use a Sharpie on purpose this time. This is our boat." What a rebel.
😋
Sacrilege!
🤣🤣
Aldino you do not ramble what you have to say is listened to with great interest even when wearing your mask and i have to play it back a few times. You are both so informative and honest in your presentations a breath of fresh air in this troubled world Bless you both.
Nice work. Yes, it is nice being part of a team
If only we had more Aladinos in this crazy world⚓
Your patience amazes me 🇨🇦
“This is our boat and I can do whatever I want”, 🥰 When Sam Holmes was refitting his Cape Dory 28, after receiving some advice in CZcams comments, he said, “It’s my own boat and I can do what I want.” As a female yacht owner, I receive a lot of well meant, often unasked for, advice. Both Aladino and Sam have said what I would love to say sometimes. 😁😁⛵️🥰 Loving this series, thank you. Elaine
But seriously Elaine, some of the so called advice is absolutely bonkers. Sent from well meaning but poorly informed folks. You are the captain of not only your ship but also your destiny.
Sam is the epitome of "I'll do it my own way", I love him
@@Jeemdeecreations Sam is also the guy who secured his safety harness eyelets with wood screws or something similar, bless his heart :). Aladino is a boat builder by trade, however, and probably has more knowledge than the majority of the comments section combined
What a wonderful place to grow up. No wonder you became "hooked on sailing". I can't wait until we get 'er into the water. Love your music as always.
That was probably the clearest description I have ever heard about how you patter the fiberglass. Most channels just film the process without the explaining more than the layering and over-sizing of patches. You are doing a beautiful job.
I am impressed this boat looks so much better than when you first began. I think you are great craftsmen.
Good one Aladino, “liquid snot”
Aladino is becoming quite the ham on the vlogs. I dig his style and humor it brings me joy. Keep giving them Swiss instructors the finger 😂😂
😛
I love watching sailboat refits, especially when it is being done with such care and skill, so of course I love watching your progress. But what really makes your work stand out is the marvelous way you tell and show the story. Truly top notch!
From a former fiberglass boatbuilder , a proper job well executed . 👍
We don’t miss a week..glad you found each other G&G❤️
Awesome well done on the instructions and that with a perfect music.. it’s almost addictive.
Thanks for sharing.. 👍🏻
It's going to be so satisfying sailing a boat you've restored better then it was before and customizing to your liking.
Re: Using a Sharpie. When I was a child, my father put up drywall in what was then an unfinished basement. He was going to put stucco over the drywall, so I asked if I could draw pictures on the bare drywall. He said yes and I grabbed some carpenter's crayons. After the stucco was applied, the crayon somehow lifted off the drywall and resurfaced. My childish drawings were visible on every wall of the TV room.
Your attention to detail is going to be a blessing when you get ready for paint. Well done 👍👍
The energies of youth you display weekly leave me in awe, both in the projects and the videos. Super attention to detail. A real masterclass.
You won me with the use of the Sharpie, such wicked glee !!
I was struck by the performance of Deno. Perhaps it was because he is truly in his element while using the skills he learned in his apprentice time. There is more to it than that though. I think both of you have gotten your acting skills honed to a fine level. All those words to say, "Good Job" and "great show as always.
Aladino's attention to detail is always amazing. A great craftsman.
Aladino, you're a precision Swiss machine!
Hi Aladino, one nice trick is to add some microsheres to some resin, paint it over your last layer of glass and then add peel ply over it, then use your roller to really press the peel ply in. The following sanding to get a smooth surface is much quicker and starts with a much better finish already. Using vacuum bagging even gets a better surface in my experience... Having rebuild a Farrier trimaran and building lots of stuff with epoxy and carbon or glass, I know how bad sanding can be...
An amazing process to watch. I really enjoy the learning that comes out of you both sharing the details of what you are doing. Thank you.
3 or 4 years back I had just retired and my neighbour gave me an 18-5 ft. glass powerboat. I had no experience working with fiberglass and or epoxy and I started watching CZcams vids on how to how not to in some cases. I put in a new wood transom and stringers and floor and bullworks (forgive spelling).Now I feel I can do anything I set my mind to and yes there is a great sense of accomplishment even with working fiberglass. Now I know what I have and am so far able to go fishing! CHEERS from viewer on Southern Vancouver Island!
From my admittedly small scale experience in working with fiberglass building cedar strip canoes, I found that working the glass on the outside of the hull where the curve is generally convex allows for top to bottom or keel to bulwark motion with the hands, spreaders, rollers etc, but on the inside where the curves are concave (generally) tool movement must be directionally fore and aft otherwise voids will develop to no end......
Not sure if leaving a comment helps but I do so enjoy the craftmanship you both display on your channel!
it does help.
You two are such a great team!
My paternal grandmother's parents came from Switzerland. I feel a little pulled in your direction and I like what you two are doing. The music is awesome too.
As always ,a joy to watch you both work together on the boat , even doing some mundane jobs and still producing enjoyable videos to watch, thanks again.
I sensed that you had something to do with Switzerland by the way you work. Clean, organised & precise
After spending 20+ years building boats, watching the wasted steps me crazy! Normally we would set up a resin mixing table in the salon or on the deck. It’s much easier to wet out the boat surface with a paint roller, lay the dry glass over the resin, then wet out the glass on the boat, rolling it on with a paint roller. Weight and excess resin on a project such as this is almost immaterial so long as air voids are rolled out.
Kudos to your fiberglass skills, it is absolutely stunning watching your execution of the process. It helps to have experience ...knee-deep in epoxy to really appreciate your skill level, patience, and teamwork of both of you. When I die, (hopefully not too soon), I want to be reincarnated as your next boat, I know I will be lovingly cared for and appreciated to the Nth degree! Always wanted to sail in blue water around the world as I know you will!! 😊👍🏻 thanks for another beautiful video and the music and edits were perfect ! 👏🏻👏🏻
I didn't expect any less, some would say take a minute to breathe but I'm sure he didn't stop with the fin roller until the resin was about set. Not a single air molecule was trapped beneath the glass. Lol I really enjoy watching as the work gets done nice very very nice.
Truly Awesome tech'know-how + craftsmanship Aladino!! + Maya idem!! Music&camera extremely well orchestraed!! >This is a Great episode.
I love the meticulous approach of your teamwork. And keep the original music coming as well. Thank you
Aladino is such a great teacher in addition to being a great craftsman.
'Dini,.. a true pro with the glass matt,.. dang!!!!
Weirdly, watching folk fiberglass stuff on boats is one of my very favorite things to watch on CZcams. Fiberglass fascinates me. Epoxy fascinates me. I love this shit. Thank you guys.
@Grim FPV Amen.
Your doing a great job, thanks for sharing!
I'm so glad that we have recently had fiber optic internet installed and ran out here in the country, Now i get to enjoy real life entertainment and gain knowledge from folks like you Thanks again your content Rocks
Well done again👍
Coming along nicely, see you next week.
Greatly appreciate seeing how you guys go about fibreglassing. I am self taught so you helped me greatly increase my knowledge. Thanks
I swear I can smell the acetone! Great series guys! Such precision and old school skills. Hope a lot of young folks are watching you two. Happy Thanksgiving
Another great video.
You should put a layer of foam and a fancy visible weave. It would insulate; sound and temperature, and resist condensation.
You could try Olfa roller cutters to cut your fabric. You can find them in quilting stores. They make vary clean cuts. :)
Dont know what to say this week, but this is to please the algorythm. ;-)
its coming along great!!! thanks for sharing with us!!
An absolute pleasure to follow your progress every week. Thank you for sharing it with us!
Looking good 👍 👍👍
Very interesting that 2 different boats this week (Acorn to Arabella and you) had a fiberglass lesson for us. And as usual we now can see two different ways to do the same job. I very much doubt that I will ever fiberglass anything but I do enjoy the lessons that are given on YT, thank you. Thanks for posting
Thanks for sharing
Very impressive! It’s nice to see the process of this refitting. Thanks for this video!
Awesome, thanks for the tips!
This will be quite a boat when it's all done.
Great session on fiberglass.
Yet another wonderful video of the Master Craftsman and the Artiste. Maya, that music was not just so good to listen to in the background, it was very creatively sculptured into the video. Gee woman, you are talented in so many ways, just like that man you are married to. Well done both of you!
Great episode! Thanks so much for sharing your journey!
What a great job! Well done!!!
That was some very interesting and timely information. Many thanks.
Slow but ever so meticulously done and in the end it’s all you and knowing yep I did that. Great work and the skill makes the videos more interesting to watch. But I’m in til the end so keep them coming, stay safe loving and ever so cool 😎
Dudes! That was next level.
if I ever buy a boat, I would like it to be built by Aladino💪😂
On all projects; 50% of time is planning, 50% of time is doing and 50% of time is cleaning up. Great job.
About the sharpie , that remember me of when I made the seats for my -69 Dodge..
Haven’t I thought about it.. but I did and made a test piece that I really inked up and waited for a couple of days.. after 3 months the blue line was coming true on my beautiful white seat’s ..
I saw the car a couple of years ago and the seats are still in good condition after 30+ years except for some faded blue lines😄
You are both a dream team..the progress every week is outstanding. Stay safe ⛵️⛵️⛵️💕
Meticulous glasswork will pay off! I suspect all your boat tours for visiting friends will include the bilges and chain locker! ;)
Another awesome video. I really missed the violin music! More Please.
Thanks guys a great update and loved the music.
Very interesting thanks!
Thank you for including the aside about sharpies. When you mentioned it, I was curious what the problems are with marking fiberglass that way, and what the preferred alternatives are.
She's looking incredible! Such detail! Coming along really nicely!
Nice Job You Two!
Trying to figure out what I find so comforting about "New episode every Friday". I would feel the same if I saw "No episode next Friday". It's the confidence implicit in the statement. If, however I saw "Episodes every Friday", I wouldn't feel happy at all. I think I may be a little mad.
Love your energy and spirit. The balsa trapped inside fiberglassing inevitably absorbs moisture, wet warm air jets hissing in, gets cold and condensates into water, water can't drain out. To make it worse, balsa sucks water like sponge. The next owner shall see the same black rotten balsa again. Even as of today, house construction in North America use plastic film vapor barrier between drywall and FG insulation. No matter how careful one tapes up the plastic film, in the light fixture housings in the ceiling, in the electric boxes on the wall, the whole house is still like a sieve to airflow. As a remedy, inspectors make sure air can escape out thru attics and soffits.
Excellent job 👏
You guys are doing an incredible job. Really thorough. It will serve you well. Thanks so much for the se great videos.
The videos get better each week. Thanks for sharing your life's adventure with us.
My boat, a Wauquiez Amphora, has 2 inches of solid fibre glass where the through hull sensors, depth and speed log are!
I love the last dobro piece played over the stop action work. Music is always right to my taste. I am a Fiddler in California and I have spent my life playing stringed instruments. Actually on this piece I dozed off and just listen to The second half of it. Absolutely wonderful.
Sorry I didn’t mean stop action I meant the sped up motion
It would be great to hear Aladino's take on peal ply. And some of the other fiberglass cutting techniques. There seems to be two schools. First cut the perfect fitting piece. Where the other school seems to cut about half to fit around difficult areas leaving it long to be trimmed later. At first it seems the cut perfect seems to be a good idea but if applying the glass causes it to stretch and thus an impossible to cut perfectly is it better to organize the direction of the stretch thus the finish cutoff method might be better.
Again, thank you!
Thank you!
Danke für die ausführliche Arbeitsanleitung ! und super video
Looking really nice folks! I am learning a lot as you share your process. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
So satisfying, definitely understand why he has to listen to Progressive, etc while he works, I'm the same when I'm doing painstaking/finicky Adobe work.
Superb, thank you.
Impressive fiberglass instalation yoga moves?!? 😎
Thanks for this video. I have learned a lot. Good luck!
lol liquid snot.. oh too funny!! great analogy!! :) great episode as always!! Keep rolling SMC Team!👍
I think all snot is liquid. If not, it's a booger!
@@edwardfoley6404 merely technicalities lol :)
That fibreglass work does look great! I also really like your blue counters and hope you change your mind on them, although maybe they look different in person I'm not sure. Thanks for another interesting and educational video!
Watching you guys work is inspiring. Thanks
