Guys that’s awesome! Where are you, We would love to come visit at some point! How’s the install going?

@@SailHub our boat is at Beaumaris on Anglesey. We are now committed to moving aboard and launching in 12 months time. Our two 48v battery banks (4 x 300AH and 4 x 120AH) are installed in a watertight compartment. Motor in a frame ready to fit. Thrust bulkhead built. Currently mostly focused on deck. DIY carbon fibre stanchions and solar rails. Then mizzen mast (diy dyneema chainplates and rigging). Visitors welcome 😁

Sounds really interesting! We need to get our van sorted first and see what happens from there. It would be great to visit, cool project and I have fond memories of the area too! 👍

@@SailHubabsolutely beautiful area, although the boat yard is possibly the windiest in the country 🤣

@SustainableSailing yeah, that area got hammered years back and you lost a marina in Anglesey the week after we left. That was pretty bonkers.

Great to hear this! Thanks for your encouragement 👍 great to have you on the ride with us cheers!

Brilliant! Now that sounds like a plan!!👍

Thanks David! I guess you know why goes into it when you’ve done it right! Thanks for the support!! Jenni is great with the camera, she’s take me to it so well, we’re so lucky! Thanks again!!!

I presume your referring to the Amare set up? Maybe a little harsh, manual overrides for everything, that’s got to be pretty rare? I’m not aware of too many mesh systems in vehicles either, probably a few out there but when I was building a race car it was very hard to find a suitable customisable ecu from a donor vehicle, it had to be a custom product. Anyhow things may have moved on by now and I would love to know which one you could suggest as we are looking for something for the new boat we are building, Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Cheers 👍

😂That does make me laugh! I thought we were the only daft ones out there who would think it was worth it! Great to hear your into it though, kinda makes it seem more worthwhile when people enjoy it! Interesting handle - are you a mountain biker?

@@SailHubI am sadly a wheelchair user but I spent time on a deserted island full of rockhopper penguins in the south Atlantic called Saunders Island. This was years before injury .

@Rockhopper1 oh man; that’s not good news. What an amazing experience, I once met a bunch of naval guys just coming ashore in Chille who almost lost their ship of the Falklands, man they hit the booze hard after that! I saw penguins in NZ once, so cool. Kept our distance mind so probably not as good as your experiences. Sorry to hear about you injury, I recently found out that I’m not invincible myself but thankfully I’m still walking. Hope to keep you entertained and have you along for the journey! 👍

Awesome! Seems like we’ve got a lot in common! 👍🙂

Anything within payload is good for me, mind you it’s not really heavy, we’re certainly keeping an eye on it and most people would probably be quite surprised. For instance I’m pretty sure the step weighed less than the plastic step alternative. literally 80% of it was machined away and walnut is fairly light too. As for the bulkheads the ply we’re using is light too, it could be lighter but I’m really not fussed. I want it to last and that’s the prime concern here, we’ve had and used loads of vans over the years and I’m tired of them falling apart. The added weight is fine by us, the mpg will drop a bit but we don’t pay for accommodation so I’m good with that, we’re also not planning on towing a car around like many do either!

Oh wow! So cool to hear your thoughts! Thanks for being a part of it!!! 👍😃

Hey, the guys in this video do it - the Blue Nav motor. Well, they allow us to stay in a static position so I imagine they are progressing their tech as they go, they are pretty new to the market and a super switched on bunch. Never saw anything else but I will keep my eyes peeled for it rather next events! Thanks for that, Chris

@@SailHub Yes exactly. But that system has as you said only been used for Motor boats. I hope it will come! Strange to me that the bigg players like Ocean volt doesnt have it yet. Btw, cool changel!

@sebastiankrook7663 the problem is it needs to rotate, I reckon the place to watch is technologies. Marco is super switched on to what tech is going to be important in the future. As for blue nav, they are interested in sailing for sure, that’s why it lifts up into the hull, less drag and more speed! They were so new at the point of filming that I don’t think they had much experience with sailboats yet. But yeah, cool topic to an eye on!

@@SailHub Well actually either a rotatable as you say or a stern thruster. The issue is that you need to be able to rotate the surge probeller slow in case of low winds. This means it probobly needs to be electrical. Wich Technologies - Marco are you refering to? :)

Sorry fella, typo - EPTechnologies, most permanent magnet motors can be slowed down as the cogging is significantly reduced, especially with axial flux variants.

I think you may find your wrong there, I did it in a wooden boat actually and it was terrifying.

@@SailHub Tell that to the boat which now rests at a depth of around 6700 feet down on the bottom.

@oldowl33 I wish I knew where you were going or coming from with this… I mean, did you sink the ship? What happened? Have you sailed in ice much? What context are you speaking in here? I’d love to answer positively but it’s hard to know what the problem is. Cheers, Chris

@@SailHub The ice crushed her with a Gail from the north, no doubt of that, 70°58'00"N 130°03'26"W was the location, it was 14 years ago. Another one for the locker.

Rescue out of Tuktoyaktuk.

Hey Julian! Hard not to put you in, cracking product and a cracking price. Anyhow, must give you call for a catch up fella. Great to meet you all and hope to see you again soon 👍⛵️

Hey Jordan, thanks mate! Yeah the curved bulkhead is the next video to come chap. Hope it’s good 😬 we’ve had a lot more comments than usual on the van and it’s making us nervous! Anyhow, that’s coming up alongside some veneering, tig welding etc and then a super cool floor which we are really stoked about? (It’s a boat deck!!) Thanks for commenting and being a part of the journey! Hope to hear from you again!

Hey Colin, the next video is about the van! We’re showing the making of curves bulkheads and some tig welding as we customise a roof. Thanks for you comment, it means a lot to us that you are helping us shape our journey 👍 Cheers, Chris & Jenni 😃

Hi Cyril, nice to hear from you! Thanks for the support and confidence boosting words!

Hey thanks! It’s a Tudor Pelagos Lhd

Hey, we did dim it but it just seemed so repetitive in the edit, it’s the same thing as clamping the steamed strips with some added Titebond. To be honest we’re learning what people like and don’t like right now, for me it’s all a busman’s holiday donut already seems full of boring things, I would live just to film all the cool stuff only but Jenni assured me it’s about story more than cool stuff and yourself and a couple of others seem to have consolidated that in this episode. Im pretty sure the next video will have the glue up in it now 👍

Hahaha shes is 100% right, it all about the story start middle and end you got to remember you get new viewers like me every video. Looking forward to joining the journey 😀

Yeah! Cheers fella, without feedback from people like yourself we would be screwed, so thanks, it makes a difference! Cheers for joining the journey too!

Hey guys! Thanks!! Good to hear from you too, I will let Julian know guys, you never know 🤞 If I can be of assistance with your existing one just send me an email an I will call you back 👍 info@sail-hub.com Cheers, Chris

Thanks for commenting! Hope to see you for the next videos too 🙂

Great to hear this!! Ah man! We love that place, been there twice now, next time we will be on our own boat! Stay tuned we’re coming for ya!! (May take a while mind!😆)

Oh wow! Thanks for joining the journey!! 👍 I hope we can keep you entertained!

Hey Craig, as soon as we can fella. Just building home first you see we can’t live in Switzerland without the van. On a positive note I think we have a place to cast the keel here in the UK so it looks like we will get into that soon! Will also go into the keel design and how the scanning went and the likes. None of this is quick stuff as we need to get it as right! We really wish we could just smash it out and get onto her sharpish too! Hope you understand👍

Hey up! That’s fab to hear, thanks for jumping aboard! So cool to be in with all thy lot! All great people doing great things! Cheers to Sailors! 🍻⛵️🤙

😂 your right! We had just been speaking with Wallas who are from Finland! Best edit that, we don’t want to miss inform people! Thank you. They are from Denmark and great mates with their neighbours over the water from Sweden. These shows are a right mess of statistics, hundreds of people, specs and info in a short period.. It’s not like we sit and plan what we’re gonna say either, we’re run and gun due to time constraints and what comes out is what you get! Mind you journalism is indeed a profession, it’s a tough one for sure but it’s not our profession, if we had the time to make it ours things would probably be very different. Im just sharing my thoughts from another angle, that of a boatbuilder. Hope you understand👍

Hey Paul, great to hear! Thanks for that. The next video should be good for you too (we hope!😬) 👍

Ok

Get outta town! 🥳😳😃

Yeah your pushing it on something that size, we had a similar experience here where we came in with an empty battery… ruclips.net/video/txFtoN81vnw/видео.htmlsi=XUeR6558Ce0hWR6S Yeah, the cost just has to drop and it is, like the new ePropulsion motor in our latest video.

Takes one to know one 😀

Yeah, she looks like a fast thing ay! Here’s hoping it’s not just the go faster stripes!! 👌

Cheers! That’s great for us to hear! Thanks for the support! 😃👍⛵️

😂 yup. I like to wing it once in a while… A little rebellion is good… maybe?! 🤞😳

Hey Dirk, thanks mate! It’s means lot to me. Jenni too, she’s the editing and camera whizz - to be honest it pretty crap without her input! Good team I rekon 👍

Hey, thanks for that. When we get some time we will get onto it 👍

Point taken, but how would we do that when we’ve not had enough use to put a valid opinion out there. We’re not into blabbing about how good things are without backing it up 😉 we’re just putting things out there to make others aware of their existence. I believe we suggested that we would make further comments after some proper testing.

Thanks Frank, much appreciated 👍

I don’t know what you mean Michael? 😳😂

Nice… makes me nervous an joiner watching mind…. Don’t judge too much 😉

@@SailHub 😂😂doing amazing work so far. Nice to see a van conversion that’s going to be more interesting and have solid wood in it. Great editing and film work too. Well done for working that walnut all with hand tools too

@amhjoinery2060 thanks! That’s great to hear!! We’ve got some cool stuff coming up soon, a boat vid which may not be your thing but then onto this mega curves bulkhead! Mission! Thanks again for the support! 👍

Ahh, so nice to hear! Thanks so much, its really really nice to hear! As for the swimsuits, I tend not to wear them too much... I hate water, Jenni loves! We tried to make a more typical episode or two when we wer sailing last but we just had no interest. We're more interested in the tech and building a boat thats basically an ongoing prototype, thats way more our style! fingers crossed others like it too!!

Hey Gavin, thanks fella! 👍

How good would that be!! Although often it’s probably a good thing you can’t smell what’s going on over here haha 😝 We’re saving up all the small off cuts to have on a camp fire, can’t wait!! Thanks for tuning in guys! See you for the next epic step which is the huge curved bulkhead 🤞🏼

😂 oh yeah… super powers mate! You know where it’s at! I’m a serious note. We just want to get the boats keel on this year.. if we can do that we can pop her in the water and get her to the UK. That will certainly not be fit to call a boat! To be honest I don’t think we are going to make it but thy won’t stop us trying, if we can get a keel by October we may stand a chance… right now it’s hit and miss so wish us luck!!!

Ah nice! The algorithm’s not usually our friend 😆. Great to hear you enjoyed it and thanks for joining the journey! 👍

Wahey! There’s a compliment for ya! Many thanks!! 👍

Great stuff!! Thanks 👍

Awesome! Cheers for joining! Great to have you with us and hope to hear from you in the future! Let’s go build van and boats!

Hey Eric, cheers for the comment! Great to hear you’ve been with us for a while, stoked to hear that! Yeah I have done most boat work over the years to be honest, everything from rigging, welding, woodwork and wiring. I love it all, that’s why a boatyard is the perfect job for me! Cool to hear you’ve moved onto interiors a bit too, if I can help just give us a shout!

Great to hear! When you find one let me know 🙃
