I wanted to help support your journey with this boat. I’m a United State Marine Corp Veteran. The Marines played a big part in the D-Day landing, I bought 2 of your stickers to help some. I know it’s not a lot of money but it’s what I could afford. I found one of your videos on TikTok today. I read the history and your story and now I’m a follower until you get it done. I plan on helping you and your family out with your journey as much as I can when I can. It not a lot but it some. Please keep doing what your doing and forget the haters, we all have haters in life that just means your doing something right.
Welcome aboard! So nice to have you here, thank you so much for the support!
It's not enough that you all take on a project like this, but you tackle it as a family. I love everything about this! You are all awesome!
Gemma and Simon, I can’t express how much I admire what you have done, are doing and no doubt will do. As an expat scouser, I only wish I could get back to lend a hand at your ‘open days’, but covid etc. has stopped that. Your RUclips episodes keep me entertained. Keep going, not for me and the thousands that follow you, but for yourself. Overcome all obstacles ahead and enjoy YOUR boat, because it is yours.
What an amazing couple you are, most people would have run a mile from a project as big as this. You enthusiasm shines through and to see how far you have come is astounding. What a sense of achievement you will have when this ship is saved. I have nothing but admiration for you guys, and a big thank you for keeping us entertained and bring laughter into these tough times we find ourselves in.
Thanks Mark, we are really enjoying this project, and meeting new friends as we go x
You folks always make me smile. So down to earth, genuine. Thank you
I look at this in tears of all the love an hard work that's been put into Sardinia ... An what's been done in the time I was away is bloody amazing... I love the theme song. It's stuck in my head... I send you both heaps of love... An positive energy.... Grateful for your channel!! ✌🏼💗😊❣️
I admire what you are doing,such a historic boat should be kept for future generations,thank you,you’re awesome
Thanks for watching!
Doing something like this just makes that time spent enjoying the fruits of your labor even more enjoyable. A number of years ago my wife and I bought a down on her luck 72 ft houseboat. We spent months and months updating the interior and the mechanical systems. Then one fateful Christmas Eve I got a phone call from the marina and was told our houseboat was lost in a dock fire. Hopefully your story works out better than ours.
Aww that's so sad, sorry for your loss x
Love your dedication and determination. I can see the progress! Keep up the good work. Kuddos to Johnny Wright for his music. You are lucky to have this music as your theme music.
I love your work and commitment.
All good to look back on when Emily is a mum, and what a grafter she is, upto do anything she can, ad try what she can't bless her. hope she holds it together to skipper her mum and dad out a bit down the road. Great video.
HI guys from Victoria Australia 🇦🇺 love all the work you've put in save her 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 she will be back on the waves soon 👍🏼 keep up the great work and stay safe 💖💖💖💖
That day will be awesome!
Thanks Guys. F....n Unreal. Love you`s an what your doing.
I have not commented as I was watching your old clips! I have wanted to say to you
ALL!! Well done and you are doing a magnificent job at saving a bit of history! I cannot wait to see her afloat at sea soon for your holidays! Just i used to do with my parents! My mum died in 2019 aged 95! I wish you all the success you deserve :)
Hats off to you all you certainly have your work cut out. Especially it being a timber boat.
Lovely lines to her, I can see why you let your heart rule your head 😂. Don’t blame you, I’m the same.
Wow ! That’s some work done and some more left but looking amazing so far!
It’s been a pleasure to follow you thus far,through this massive journey.
This is so freakin cool! You guys are motivating. This is a serious project. Excited to see more!
Cheers Gus! Love your channel to! X
With sheer skills and attitude I bet their home is a work of art !
Patriotism and respect for people and things historical
is wonderful and reassuring in the chaos and confusion of
today.
Magnificent effort by all involved and......thank you.
Fear Nothing! Love your strength!
Amazing progress in just one year. I'm constantly amazed and inspired by your knowledge. Keep up the great work!!
Well done you guys. I have to say I was a doubting thomas when you started. I think you have made good progress and learnt many new skills. A somewhat unconventional approach to fixing up wooden boats, but I suspect during her war years and 40s-50s, she was treated the same way, and it is a refreshing change from the precision engineering of Acorn to Arabella and Sampson etc, much as I love those. I think your super skill will be stamina and optimism. go for it.
We are glad we can show the world that it doesn't take loads of money and qualifications to do something worth while xx
My two favourite channels ... this one and "Acorn" ....such similarities but such differences ....and the same goals ....I would like to see both in the Caribbean 🇻🇨🙂
Hi! I discovered you guys just today...via "Cruising the Cut"..... I think you are doing a fantastic job...something very close to my own heart and aspirations....
As you state.... "Why not preserve something from our past?"... we should all do so...whenever & wherever. Whatever shred of history there is: We must preserve it.
What you are doing is fabulous...... please, let me help.
Keep your lips off the ball valves and keep smiling . Love you guys , I know you're going to have a wonderful vessel
U look good when it finished and u travel UK and round very good progress on ship
Well, that's a lot of work completed for one year. Cracking effort, keep up the good work and best wishes for 2022.
I think since December it's starting to move faster now that we are all organised and all the rubbish is off!
I have nothing but admiration for the work and the dedication you have put into restoring what on the face of it looked like a hopeless case. I have watched you progress right from the beginning and to look at the progress you have already made it is amazing. The other thing you have probably saved the mental health of a lot of your subscribers with your humour and resilience in what has been for most people very worrying and depressing times. Thank you once again for your entertainment and long may you keep up your good work,A happy healthy and prosperous new year to you all
Cheers Robin, if are videos have helped at least one person then it's all been worth it x
All I can say is well done! You're doing a great job. This is an interesting project and the work you're putting into it is epic. Thanks for the content and the laughs too :)
Thank you 😊
I love this channel and so much respect for the both of you! I admire your work standard and what you have learned, the way you teach your child to help is amazing! Very inspirational
Thank you so much x
Again, congratulations! Here's to many brews and bacon butties, paint parties, sleep overs and seeing ship happening everywhere on Sarinda!
A karate teacher come to help on Sarinda. The sensei say "I am a black belt, what are you?" Gemma pulls out her belt sander, "About an 80 grit...."
Your doing a great job guys, your grit and determination is incredible. I think many of us would think the challenge of getting across to the boat and climbing on board would be enough work for the day 😂
good work you did on the boat keep up the good vids on the work you do on the channel thanks lee
What an awesome project!
Amazing amount of work for only one year thanks for sharing your journey!!
And also lots of love from Canada 🇨🇦
Wonderful 12 month in 6 minute editing...
What a year and what progress! Good luck in 2022 🇻🇨
Got a feeling this year will be great x
The makings of Great Home movies. Something to look back on with you grandchildren... In your golden years so they can say we have some really cool grand parents. Many many years from now. :-)
Now if only you could do the same for the next year in advance...
Good luck with your adventure.
Great video, guys. You’ve come a long way. Keep it up!
Wow you are doing an incredible job in restoring this lovely historic vessel! I came over from Cruising The Cut to have a look after David shared your story. Your passion & dedication is inspiring. I’ve subscribed to follow your journey, with no doubt that you will achieve your dream.
I applaud your tenacity,what a massive task
Sweet ! I love your episodes ! Best wishes from Montana !
It's a hell of a project you have taken on i'm thinking of doing something similar with a much smaller river boat iv got my eye on a year older than yours, Well said with the saving a bit of history comment it's such a shame more people arn't keeping these old boats alive, best of luck with the boat i hope it all works out for you all.
Good luck with your restoration if you do get it! Keep us updated!
Great video my friends! ⚡🤯⚡😁 you guys ROCK!
Great compilation video, thanks for such great entertainment!! It motivates me to take on challenging projects around my house.
Well Done
Great job keep up the great work guys
Cheers Geoff x

Blowing into that pipe. Does that bring back memories 😂
Very impressed with your progress.

Commendable ! Good team work ! Carry on.
Lovely old girl.. you have done well
Cool vid.. Nice work
You’ve done an amazing job so far, I’m looking forward to the next year of hard graft that you will put in and share with us on RUclips.
P.S can we have some bloopers included? 🤪
Will try and include some with every video xx
Its all coming together soon be ship shape Bristol fashion and the riveter is a god send
tip next time you get your wellie blobs stuck try flooding the hole with water it will loosen
up the sticky gluey mud
Crazy work this
Brilliant 👍🏼❤️👍🏼
Great vid.
All I can do is echo (bin-chicken) below! Well done!
Structurally it's a sound ship. I can now start to see the potential you guys saw a year ago.
We always see potential in everything! X
So impressive...
Painting a coat of primer on top of a completely rotten boat is like putting a band aid on a severed limb. Dry dock the boat and fix it correctly before it rots from beneath you.
Forgive me if I don't listen to your professional opinion, but feel free to email me over your full survey of our boat. As anyone with a clue or a brain would never dry dock a wooden boat for a 8 year project. And the hull is not rotten one bit! And if you actually watched our videos you would see that the frames inside with water damage are all currently being replaced. But cheers for your positivity, imagine a world if everyone was like you! God help us all! 👍
Have you considered buying a pressure washer for cleaning the inside hull surfaces? The high pressure versions would do a brat job and you just pump the water out of the bilge? They are gass powered so no need to worry about power.
Lekker man lekker
GOOD MORNING 🙏8
Amazing work little family. When this BS not was about cojona i would help and come to England.
Have you considered buying a pressure washer for cleaning the inside hull surfaces? The high pressure versions would do a brat job and you just pump the water out of the bilge? They are gass powered so no need to worry about power. They can also be used with an attachment to make a wet sandblaster, nice because no dust. I see a LOT of places where this would be a huge time saver.
We do use a pressure washer x
👍
Double diagonal hull. You’re lucky there weren’t any internal planking’s rotten 👍👍
Her hull is in great shape thankfully! X
Hi guys and ladies l wish you would come through to Kingston upon Hull and do some more boat rescuing as theirs loads of diss used barges that have just been abandoned by Cargill oils and they are moored up near dry pool bridge l wish that l could come on board and do some boat rescuing and restoration and get them back to their former glory by getting these last boats which use to belong to Richard hodgeson's fleet just like syntan and sunrise which have now got loving homes but these other abandoned barges have just been left in bye water they would be l deal for doing boat handling courses on or as peoples homes please send me the information when you will be coming through to Kingston upon Hull to rescue these abandoned barges as these boats don't have any engines or wheel houses or wheels to steer them and they don't have any ruder's
Two words. Excellent. Why?
👍 👍 👍!!!
W I'm happy you
Ésto va en marcha!!!!!!
great job, are you going to make her originel again ?
I came across this video that you might be interested in. The Fairmile was not just used in Britain for coastal defence. It was also built in Canada and used by the Canadian Navy in protecting the harbours where shipping was originating as well as protecting the Saint Lawrence Seaway. My Brother-in-law Norm Ilton was a sailor on these vessels. RCVNR was the designation of these sailors. Royal Canadian Volunteer Navel Reserve. Many of the Vessels where built by Greavette Marine based in Gravenhurst Ontario but constructed in Honey Harbour on Georgean Bay. It was a safe inland location that had access to the ocean. Here is the Video ruclips.net/video/sKrMkI72VSc/видео.html
Another interesting video on the building of the Fairmile. ruclips.net/video/-i3H3Ezxdrc/видео.html
Hello, I just subscribed today. You've probably been asked before but I'm asking now. Have you two ever seen the movie "Captain Ron"? If not, you should see it, it's one of my favorites.
Best regards from Indiana, USA.
Not seen if, but will give it a go!
I hope you paint ML1392 on the side of the boat again, even if you privatise the rest of the boat to your taste
That is definitely going to happen x
@@ShipHappensUK ahh people of infinite taste and refinement ;)
Where is the boat located?
Mr Phelps should you accept this mission the agency will disavow all knowledge of your activity (nostalgia I'm Sorry)
Gotta watch this video in mute mode, for the background music really sucks.
was a cost analysis done, was material analysis done, I'm sure lead paint was used possibly even asbestos.
allowing children to help without PPE, criminal.
Can you please stop using the phase the water is coming in now when you mean the Tide is coming in every time I hear the waters coming in I think you sprung a leak so the Tide please lol.
How do you convince your wife that buying a WW2 ship is a good idea?
it helps when your wife is a mental as you!
i can't support you ,............i have a wooden boat myself .
lol!
I feel your pain! but just by you watching and commenting really is enough support we need xx
You must be mad.
