- Never imagined it would end this way for our clients beautiful 72ft Luxury Yacht that sank a few months ago. We tried to get estimates for the systems that needed to be replaced but it was difficult to get people to come here to take a look at the yacht. So it was in our clients best interest to get it towed up North.

Have you ever had a dock line snap? We just had one get a bit tight and you can see Matt scrambling to get it loose! Yup our clients beautiful 72ft yacht got towed North for the repairs after it starting sinking a few months back ... if you have questions about it leave them below.
@@abcgang8048ugh sorry to hear about your wife’s family. That sucks … yes lines are no joke! You see Matt scrambling to free the line since the head boat didn’t know we had an issue at first!
I learn something with every video.
Awesome Jim glad to hear it!
Nice job back in the water and good to see it getting worked on again👍
Yup unfortunately had to send it away … it’ll be back when it’s complete!
Job well done good morning
Good Morning Scott .... how's this Florida weather treating you? We were just working outside this morning and it feels like 99' sweating our butts off STILL
Nice job getting her back in the water.
Thanks back in the to head north for the over haul!
@@WillFixThat Nice
You do great work. Wish you was in New Jersey.
Thanks sooo much but it’s a bit too cold there in the winter!
Great video, one of the best. We were planning on putting a descaling kit together today in the seemingly more common method of hoses to a bucket with sump or bilge pump moving descaler through the ac for a few hours, but liked your method of using a strainer flush cap so much we used it on both air conditioners and it worked great with better water flow and cooler temperatures at the ac vents as the result. We now have a simple kit on hand for future use that doesn't take up much space, and simpler means we'll probably do it more frequently. Also, we used a $.99 spring clamp from HD to clamp the hose. Thanks again for the great video.
Thanks was watching Valor Sailing! Now you can keep your units clean 👍 what made it one of the best videos?
@@WillFixThat Perfect timing (for us), and great explanation.
@@ValorSailingglad it’s going to help you in your boat maintenance!
Nice work.
Thanks Paul …. Just trying to manage the chaos 😊
You are awesome!
What makes you say that Clint? Do appreciate the feedback. 😊
Great video team... perfect length and very informative! 😉
Lol perfect length … too long for us 🤣 thanks for sharing!
Nice job!!
Thanks Wade.
Maybe added a valve on the new strainer body,so you don’t have to reach over to old strainer body to service the strainer.2nd,no one uses that blue block without getting it all over whichever hand touches it,kuddos for neatness
That’s temporary till we haul the boat and replace it all.
I’d be a bit surprised if the coast guard doesn’t raise eyebrows with the strainer placement on top of the hull ID numbers. (Hopefully I’m wrong)
I made sure there is another one. The builder rounded out the screws so you would have to drill them out to get it off.
Funny stuff. Been boating my whole life, never had hull id numbers checked.
Nice work
Thank you! Cheers!
You have a lot of faith in the nut driver. I have a tendency to over tighten those clamps-out of abundance of caution.
The driver Matt uses is spring loaded!
Install an electro sea dismantle the reverse cycle heat sensor on the chiller. Probably bad
I like electro sea but part of the problem is mud. The bottom is less then a foot off bottom during low tides. Sucks up mud.
Great work and nice video.
Is there a previous video showing what you work you did on that 72' Marquis ?
I'm looking at buying a 65' Marquis. What are your thoughts on that boat? Did builder do a good job with all the systems? Any negative comments/concerns? Thanks!
Buy from a boat company that is in business! There is no customer/technical support for this boat! Yes we have a few videos! Did you see the sinking one?
6:25 you can see in his glasses how close his wife was to fall in the drink lol
LOL ... Yes almost went for a swim ... I tripped on hose and dock lines cause I was trying not to get the boat in the scene.
Thanks for the videos...did you make up the descaler fitting on the sea strainer,...
Yes homemade.
Crazy how small that strainer was and really poor location. On the 72, most people have no idea how small a failure will sink a boat. I am a retired shipbuilder. Amazing how much water can get into a destroyer thru an open valve/sea cock.
I appreciate y’all’s patience, professionalism so much!!
Bonking your head in a tiny engine room is no fun either
The guys bang their heads … sometimes pretty hard 🥴 I know Matt has seen stars a few times!
People don’t realize that once the water starts it comes in fast! If those bilges can’t keep up you’ve got a real problem.
It’s crazy to think that people can afford a yacht like that AND a house 😂 man I’d just live in that
People do live in their boats when they are away from home.
That tow boat looks a lot like Dave Marcianos old boat the falcon from wicked tuna
Not sure if its his boat or not.
Awesome and interesting. Seeing these problems makes me consider where i would spend my money regarding yachts. They seem to be an ongoing maintenance problem.
You have no idea .... keep watching we can't make this sheet up! All we do is manage other peoples chaos!
The Thermocouple on the AC is likely bad and giving the incorrect temperature.
It’s the water temp sensors and they got a bad batch of sensors.
Great video, do you do the same thing basically for the mains, gens etc, and how often? At one point when you started pumping in descaler, u said you were opening up some valve “ a little”? Just curious if you didn’t open up all the way when putting in descaler? Great stuff as always!
The way I descale I use the thru hull shut off pump to throttle the pump and create a suction to draw in the descale fluid.
Don’t mean to be nutty, but do you de-scale mains, gens any other items? If so approximately how often, and I would guess it depends on where u are located, and how often used? Thanks again and any chance of doing a descale from top to bottom with every single thing involved for us beginners?
@@stephenscott963email us we are traveling the next few days!
Those strainers with just two screws at the top are tricky when you have to undo a stiff cap , as the turning force on the cap tries to pull one of the screws out. Either remove very regularly so as not to get stiff or maybe brace it with a strap
Ya those old Perko strainers are not the greatest.
If you bring the spinnaker in behind the mainsail it is so easy to handle can't believe you don't do this.
Hey Ken … what part of the video are you referring too so I can share it with Matt?
What was the liquid from the gallon that you put in the system? I know it was quite a while ago but I just found this video. Thanks
What minute are you referring to in the video?
About21:33
What was wrong with the AC? Just the undersized strainer?
Main problem is the builder put both chillers, 9 air handlers and main battery charger on 1 shore power leg. Draws to many amps and trips breakers. Need to spread out the load.
@@WillFixThatomg that’s a huge load for one circuit . What were they thinking .
What descaled do you recommend for outboards and what is the best procedure to do it
We use barnacle buster and we pump it thru!
@@WillFixThat
So you pull the lower unit and just pump it up through the motor
Got ya. Would you recommend pulling the thermostats and just keep circulating the descaler for some time and then replace with new thermostats
Where can I purchase those hose clamps ? Great channel !
We get ours from West Marine.
About. 21:33
Hmm
These marine airs really remove heat more than cool. I guess it's a space constraint to not have normal home a/c. Seems these marine a/c's are maintenance hogs.
You're right they absorb heat ... salt water is tough on a/c units and everything else.
I'll never understand why anyone trusts any type of hose clamp over a T-Clamp, any day. Something you're almost never changing, and not installing a million of. Why not spend the extra few dollars and get something that will absolutely never loosen or fail.
Things are built cheaper these days so we have to buy more and more.
@@WillFixThat the cost of a few extra dollars on any boat, is worth it when the outcome could be it sinking. It’s kind of like the difference of using a plastic thru hull, versus another material.
@@Velislide exactly we would never use plastic thru hulls cause your asking for trouble. Agree with you completely spend a little more for a 1 time fix and not have to worry later. Above I was just saying that companies have been taking a cheaper route and it causes us to have to buy more.
