  • EPISODE 9
    Sometimes choices have to be made to move forward with my boat project and future closer to boat building a sailing that will allow me to get my head down and focus on the task in hand.
    Having to work full time to keep up this dream means i only really get the weekends to work on the boat, as well as having a social life too.
    With everything that has been going on recently in the world it has meant the work on the boat has slowed down and proving to be quite a challenge to film and edit these video's
    But worry not! I have a PLAN!!!
    I want to thank each and everyone of you for your incredible support, it really has meant the world to me and allowed me to get way further with the project than i had hoped for.
    I hope to be back and sharing this journey with you very soon.
    If there is anything you would like to discuss of have any questions, feel free to send me an email to knotfinnishedyet@gmail.com
    I will do my best to respond to all.

    No worries matey, these times are taking a toll on most of us. Take as long as you need as you don't owe us anything, we are merely along for the journey and will be here when you get the chance to come back. Good luck on the other boat project (do they have a channel or Instagram) I'm always looking for other little projects to follow as I cannot do them myself any more (one hour in my workshop and I have to recover for a day!)
    Hope you manage to get some of the work done on your own boat without the extra burden of filming, editing and quit often re shooting, you really need more than one person for all that messing around.
    Stay safe, stay focused and just be yourself!

    Like you, I got a hull only project (steel) completed it in three years on my own, with very little cash (no u tube in those days) people asked how I did it so quickly. My reply was always "well I figured that there is only so many pieces of timber that go into a boat, if I put one bit of timber or steel into it everyday then I must finish it at some point " the other thing is I found it at times overwhelming to think I was building a complete sailing vessel, so to make it easier in my own mind I forgot that I was building a boat, I was build a part of a boat, stern rail, bunk, bench, cabin top etc. It helped. Keep at it mate.

      I have to say that I'm kind of disappointed. By the way: I don't use Instagram and will not use it (definitely also not Facebook and Twitter).
      2) Will there be videos about the restoration you mentioned? Maybe on another channel? Is there a chance to watch you (and others) working? Thanks in advance for answering.

    Understand FInn but remember that we care about YOU and not just the/a boat. Personally, I would be happy with a 3-minute update every week telling what you've been doing, what you found out about your rebuild, what's going on, etc. If the vids don't show you working on the boat because you can't then....so what? Rebuilding a boat is a process filled with surprises big and small. This is all just part of your process. I'm good with that!

    If you have a bit of spare time maybe you could look into putting out a tee shirt or a button up jacket with your channel's name on the back and front. Or some beer coasters featuring your smack's name with Knotfinnishedyet under it. I think I would like to have a set of them. Even some rough off cuts with your channel name branded on and a bit of felt glued on.
    Also, do you have a PayPal account?
    1880, hard to believe that a wooden boat that old could still be floating. I would really like to see what it looks like.

Maybe in the future it’s something that can be looked into more but for now, getting on with the boat and earning money to fund the next stages are top of my priority list. PayPal can be found in the description of all videos 👍
