      Yes I agree with you John, my (just 40yrs old) son has recently caught the motorbike bug and as a retired engineer helping with repairs etc, I’m beginning to see a lot more of him now than ever in the last 25years. It means a lot. 🙏

    G'day and greetings from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 your doing a very good job of restoring the hull and I start to wish that I still had my boat. Cutting out the rot affected wood in the stringers and replacing the wood in the ribs is the way to go. The top superstructure has come out really well and it shows what can be done, thanks for filming this and I look forward to seeing you again keep safe regards John

    Seeing this young chap at work on the old boat reminds me of what I was doing forty years ago - repairing an old motor launch to use on the River Severn. My methods and workmanship were on a similar level to this. However, the boat was effectively saved by my efforts (she would have been burnt by the boatyard by 1982) and is still around today being cared-for and restored near Evesham. So, don't knock this young man's efforts to make his boat into a useable vessel for his own enjoyment.

    Did you cut vertically through the double diagonal planking? And you're just going to butt some new in? Before proceeding ask a surveyor or a boat builder familiar with this construction method to examine. The hull is not safe.

    • @d.j.vanderschoot3717
      @d.j.vanderschoot3717 3 года назад +3

      As a shipbuilder I'd say it could work as a house boat, as long as you have a way to keep those butt joints from leaking. But with the hull almost completely losing its integrity like that (butt joints don't work in boat building), its cruising days are over I'm afraid. Even sitting at the dock the difference in buoyancy at the ends w.r.t. the middle will make the boat hog (bend) promoting those butt joints opening up, and causing the keel timber and deck to be overstressed and crack over time.
      One way to perhaps remedy that is to go overlay the hull with two layers of plywood, all butt joints and lands staggered. To be glued with something that cures in a moist environment (maybe urethane, definitely not epoxy). Basically how it was done in the first place.

    • @RodFleming-World
      @RodFleming-World 3 года назад +1

      @@d.j.vanderschoot3717 I'm glad you commented. I agree completely. Even ar a permanent dock, the inevitable motion of waves and people moving about will work those joints loose. I doubt if the hull is worth saving tbh.

    I am applauding you for taking on this project, but the woodworking is cringeworthy, despite the praise that is heaped on you in the comment section. I can understand, that this boat is not the Tally Ho and you are not a shipwright, but a little more attention to detail would make your life much easier in the future and the final product more pleasing to look at. Using a workbench would also reduce the risk of killing yourself with a planer.
