New Boat Locker! Half Cabin Boat Restoration ❤🚤
We fit the new lockers into my 1984 Swiftcraft Seagull MkIII half cabin boat. This is the first time I have refit a fibreglass boat and the first time I have fit lockers into a boat.

In this video we fit the new anchor locker and the new bulkhead. We also fabricate and fit the new lockers into the half cabin at the front of the boat.
In this video we used
We used 9mm & 6mm Marine Plywood for the bulkhead, anchor locker and lockers and 450g and 250g fiberglass chop and a polyester resin.
Next on the jobslist is to paint the locker...

    I just wonder if you seal floor totaly, you have no acess to bottom in case you hit something and water start come into boat. I do similar project at the moment, but i would leave opportunity to lift the floor to have access, and of course in purpose to have storage under floor

    👍You boat project is coming along very nicely... Excellent hardwork. 🤑 👉 FYI: Don't be hesitant to add a layer of 💥1708 fiberglass if you want to increase Longterm structural regidity. Also, and this is important: Please waterproof the anchor well, bilge well, and any other area (such as lockers) that may get wet... For example: 💥Barrier Coat Epoxy Primer, followed by 💥Epoxy Bilge Paint. I like TotalBoat products myself, but other brands work too.

  • @TruthFactFinder
    @TruthFactFinder 2 года назад

    I'm very impressed with your father's handiwork. 👏 However, if it were me, I would have used EPOXY resin (for its superior strength & because it creates a waterproof layer). POLY resin (in my opinion) is inferior, and should only be used if you are topping with gelcoat. Also, if it were me - after covering the floor with chopstrand, I would have added a layer of 1708 fiberglass for regidity. FYI.

    I'm rebuilding a 1967 catalina dorsett, with a 70HP evenrude outboard. I know the feelings. Minus the VRO pump, mine is the same. Suggestion for you; check your timing...mine was way out of spec, but still idled/started great. Fought with acceleration last summer (bogging). Like the video, good job!!

    Hi So happy to have found you. Mind telling us how much you paid for your boat. I’ve just bought a 1/2 cabin that will take 8 people. Bit bigger than your, but I’m wanting to do just the way you are. I even shop at the same Bunnings. This is so refreshing. I’m beginning to feel more confident doing my refurbishment now.

  • @mylouiethe3rd
    @mylouiethe3rd 3 года назад

    Just found you, as I’m just about to put down a floor in 1/2 cabin in my old 80s doer upper. I knew when I saw you using ozitzo tools that I had come to the right place. Now I can’t wait to watch your other videos. On a very very serious note. Please don’t let your father work with resin without a proper respiratory mask. Resin fumes are toxic, and dads are precious.

    i seen that cut through the hull coming, due to you steadily tempting fate by cutting towards it constantly.

  • @southernprojectsyt6340
    @southernprojectsyt6340 3 года назад

    rofl you aussies call everything under your feet a floor. the ground you call the floor, the deck of a boat you call the floor, atleast you got 1 floor correct and that's the floor in buildings.

  • @michaelhefford5649
    @michaelhefford5649 3 года назад

    Did you do a test drill into the stringers like you did with the transom? My stringers in a similar aged Savage Commander are completely rotten and wet/powdery and I'm in the process of replacing them all. Looking forward to seeing your project develop.

  • @chriscarter3588
