You're getting soooo much better at not saying 'hot water heater'. Love the channel!
"Hot water heater" or "water heater", Peter we use both terms, it doesn't matter. Get that kitchen built so we can see some of your cooking!!
I look through my prism,
With rosy optimism,
Thanks to Young Knowles’
Plans for warm glows....
Geordie will have a furnace,
Which we hope won’t burn us,
Not meaning to boast,
We’ll be warm as toast.....
Stay warm Peter.. The Bard of Ballina, Co Mayo
Oh dear lord.
The Santa's Sac did me in.....
Still laughing.
optimism is not a word i would use this early in the new year. we hope for a better year than last
Despite thunderstorms in the valley we are optimistic about 2022. Cheers!
Yes, we all should be optimistic for 2022. The cumulative positive thinking will help to make it a good year. Best to all.
Hi Lady Z and Peter..
At 13:30 real arty effect... 😻 ...
An advantage of having the diesel tanks inboard.. is reduced condensation...
... though ...
I would rather you have the vent above the gunnel (BSS regs in the UK) with the pipe going up for at least 6" (near some warmth, not hot) to stop water getting into the tanks..
Many Moons ago I saw a home made trap .. a glass bottle with two pipes into the top.. the pipe ends were separated half way down and there was a drop of diesel in the bottom.. water sinks below the diesel, can't evaporate and you can see the water...
Get some 10 litre plastic drinking water carriers.. that's what I use.. the lowest it's got here is -25 ... It's about to get cold -7 apparently...
I have a wood burning stove.. I also have an Ellis LPG gravity boiler, so doesn't need electricity.. bit expensive to run..
The diesel heater you said about uses about a 1/3 litre an hour (in not so mild weather) and red diesel costs £1 a litre (£1.54p for road diesel) .. that's £8 a day.. plus electricity 7? amps on start 2? amps running...
A 19kg LPG lasts about 9 days and costs £35 (to anyone in the UK that's Flogas, Calor is more expensive and there are other companies, I'm not connected to any of them.. do shop around) and a 19kg is a few quid more than a 11kg or 13kg depending on brand.. definitely worth making 19kg gas lockers.. which must be metal including vents and pipes etc (BSS regs)..
So the running costs..
seem better for gas at the moment...
When I have the money I would like a blown air diesel heater to heat the boat up quick when needed...
Wood burning stoves go out or need cleaning...
Consider a wood burning stove (with a back boiler?) fitted stern of your toilet... or diesel stove...
... and ...
On the subject of the Galley .. make it modular .. so it can be moved .. to one of 3 places.. forward cabin port, stern starboard or the wheelhouse... this would give flexibility, rather than makeshift...
.. and there's another job that needs adding to the list - remove coaming under windscreen and fibreglass roof with tabs for coaming...
It's on my list with some t&g deck replacement...
Hope that gives some thoughts...
Happy New Year 🌈
Bella 🐈 and Mark.
🙏Hello, Warm wishes on New Year to all of our wonderful and very special friend. May you have a meaningful and successful year 2022 that brings you many joys and great big smiles!
I love to travel because there is always something new to taste.
The souls I meet along the way leave an imprint on me and my own personal growth. I see things in awe and make memories.
Stay Warm Peter! Really enjoyed this video, the flight looked awesome! And that food looked incredible!
Lady Z is a treasure and clearly possesses a brilliant brain. Not to putt you down Peter, just saying. 😉😁🤣
Based on the snow you’re getting and the incredible rain and snow we’re getting in California, we are very optimistic about our water supply for 2022:). #growfood
Peter, you might want to consider some 'guards' each side of the AC breaker to keep inadvertent knees, hands etc off ;-)
There will be lockout covers on a few key breakers. Bilge pumps etc.
They're COLD water heaters! Lol!!!
Heh, right.
Peter / Lady Z Happy New Year🎉
What an episode, Beer (Wine )of the week, flight of the year, electric’s , woodwork, plumbing and heating, Wellington of the series, where do I begin…. The pastry prep had had me all over the place , symmetrical coding ….nope ?? Lady Z woollen jumper pattern…yep😂.
Ps I had a Webasto diesel heater fitted in my EV in 2014 which helped in the winter months to demist the windscreen and side windows as there’s no residual heat in Electric Vehicles from combustion. A gallon of diesel lasted an age.👍. 2ndly be careful not to go too low on the hot water storage temperature as you could risk bacteria in the tank.
Y’all’s hair is hilarious. Thinking been playing in the sack lol
Wood stove was the best thing i ever got talked into.. and now days they have some pretty cool quality ones for cheap.. keep all equipment warm and dry. And wood can be found cheap / free at dock or on anchor. Dock power is very expensive unreliable amps and diesel furnace = 3-4 gal diesel per day = $600 per month and rising
For the sake of getting through winter in the warm I'd seriously consider getting a cheapo Chinese Diesel heater and plumbing it in somewhere temporarily. There are loads of good reviews all over youtube and you can get 12 kW output versions that would heat your boat up in minutes. One thing to be aware of with them is the exhaust noise, this is also an issue with the expensive webasto water heater you are considering.
That’s a good idea, hopefully we won’t see those temperatures again this winter. I’ll be ready for next year.
Love it, love it, love it!
Optimistic Santa's Sac? "Snow balls."
Cheers Peter and Lady Z ! 🥃
You know Lady Z has become a big part of the channel and I really enjoy seeing her now and again and I love how she adds a little touch of je ne sais quoi ! Isn't it time we learned her name officially even though I believe it to be Angela ?
Not a record cold Winter temp. yet Peter. I have seen the area of the Inner Harbour where you are moored iced over frozen twice in my adult life. First in 1968-69 and I think the second time 1996. I am not sure on the date of this second ice-up. Seems to me my mom was still alive. Keep warm! CHEERS from Snowy Sooke.
Watching Carole king with james Taylor. Gee what a coincidence.
In Australia we call it a “Hot Water Service”, thus negating the tautological frustration which you seem to be familiar with. Reality is, we all think your great regardless. Have a great week Peter, happy new year to you and lady Z.
Heh, thanks. I get so much flak from the Brits about that.
I'm also 'h'optimistic for the new year...if your French don't try it!
Have you tried Founders beers...they also pack a punch and, remarkably, are available here in Klawock!
Pity the plane couldn't get lower eh?
Remarkable culinary creation...love it, love it, love it!
Assuming your windows are single pan buy some silver lined bubble wrap. Size each window, attach with Velcro to make them removable. Voila. Get a compact wood heater.
I'd love a wood stove.
Belated MERRY CHRISTMAS, and HAPPY NEW YEAR, just to make you jealous, it's a mild 27deg Celsius, on the east coast of Aussie,
I spent bout 8 years on a 29 ft sailboat in Florida. I had one 15 amp AC 110 volt circuit for the whole boat, with a small bar fridge on a cut-off switch. I only needed a heater about 3 days a year, but that little heater was toasty.
Cheers and Happy New year to all. Victoria in winter snow - sweet.
I’m optimistic that your Webasto project will be a resounding success. Happy 2022!
Im optimistic that Peter will keep the chanel realistic with his artistic and stylistic characteristics, and not become egotistic but rather stay humanistic!
For the outlet...the old convention was ground down but now a days most put the ground on top.
... which drives me nuts when you get a power cord with a right angle end. They are all designed for ground down. I re-mounted a bunch of plugs in one of the places i lived because it bugged me so much :P
offthemizzen? peter it's not a sailboat! I was guessing ahead that the word would be "cold". Stay warm! You're familiar with those thin silk underlayers, right? Amazeballs for backpacking and you can sleep in them too. 10% is very nice. We used to get a pitcher of double or triple bock and a pitcher of habanero pilsner and mix them. The bocks are too malty for me and the pilsner cuts that and gives it a little zest. Happy new year! You're not considering a tiny wood stove? Multi-porpoise but fire on a boat... I can understand why that wood be a concern.
I’d love a a wood stove but my insurance company forbids it.
Stay safe and warm
Better late than never 😂 anyway its great to see how much progression you have achieved the cabin bulkhead looks ship shape my friend hopefully the the starboard aft portion that has rot can be saved with WOOD HARDENER its a product that really works I've used it to repair many items that are completely water proof and strong as new you can use bondo after that to bring it up to smoothness and apply fiberglass cloth and resin either polyester resin or epoxy resin is one you can clean your tools with acetone I would suggest the epoxy resin it would last longer you can mix a color with it so that it's like a gel coat you can add a speeding additive to it like 5 minutes epoxy into a large batch of 24-hour set would make it at 1 to 2 hours
Thanks Patrick, good points. Epoxy for sure.
Happy New Year I'm optimistic warmer days are ahead for the PNW. After all only two & half months left of winter. never thought I'd say this, I really like the rain.
Peter, you are indeed blessed to live on a boat in the company of lovely and competent ladies. wishing you and yours a wonderful new year. JDR
Peter ,I’ve fitted quite a few Chinese diesel heaters ,they also have one that heats hot water. Cost around £100uk so a real cheap unit. Compared to costs of an equivalent webasto or eberspacher they are excellent.
Parts are available for them too but units are do cheap we keep a spare unit.
I even have one in my workshop for warmth.
8kw units available too.
I can’t recommend them enough have a look on eBay.
You could install under the sole and run the hot duct into wheelhouse and throughout the boat
Fit it now and have Barbados onboard MV Geordie.
Best wishes 2022 I’m in Scotland but my brother lives just up the hill from you in Victoria.
Loving the báinín Lady Z. Have a great 2022 guys.
Thank you and HNY!!!
As long as the hull is warm with ocean water temp it would be hard to stick a tank. If the ocean water temp stays around 40 degrees F I bet the hull would never freeze no matter how cold it was outside.
Really like your lady friend and seeing her in your videos. She obviously is a chef. Great video.
I share your optimism and I’m also optimistic about 2wenty 2wo. All the best.
Couple of thousand rookie!
Plate screws have to be vertical and the receptacle has to be flat to the cover plate, and the cover plate has to be plumb
Try 1989 for a cold spell.i was living there and being from the prairies along with the humidity i knew cold!!!!
Lady Zed and Peter K
Enjoying life on new year's day
Enjoying an evening stroll in the snow
(Oh if our politicians would also do so.......
Canadians of a certain age will get the reference)
While too much of the world is torn by conflicts ans schism
We raise our glass to a future with great Optimism
(See I did manage to get a rhyme with "optimism"
Love it love it love it
How about Recipe of the? Wow! Beef Wellington looks perfect! Hat tip to the Chef(s)
Forgot to type ‘week’…..
Hi Peter, Happy newyear and all the best for 2022. May your dreams come true in 2022. Greetz from the Netherlands.
I recommend you look into the Wallas diesel heaters. I have had Wabasto/Espar and also Kabola, but for the money, in my opinion, Wallas rates #1. Their best features are variable speed fan and Bluetooth control panel. Stay warm!
They are cool and local! But I want a water heater which they don't do.
That Beef Wellington looked incredible, as did the overflight of the harbour. Congratulations on getting another job knocked off the list.
The Webasto heaters are incredible. We loved ours, and you will, too.
Wow great vlogs, love how you chat through your ideas.... we've got a narrowboat so a bit different but your boat looks lovely!
Happy New Year, I am Optimistic for 2022. Currently drinking an 1 year Oak Barrel aged beer at 8.9% ABV by Currahee brewery. No bitterness like an IPA and finishes like a bourbon. Funky and Delicious. Cheers! 🍺
Wabasto was a pain in the aris (dirty, big power drain), Reflex is the way to go, Skipper West coast Scotland 30+ years
I have one of those Wabasto units in my Defender via a 'house battery'. I also have the Defenders heater fan on the 'house battery'. The idea was that I could heat the truck without the engine running. Problem was that the thing uses way too much battery so I never do it. I am going to install a diesel air heater (ducting etc) in Euphemia (the boat) for next winter.
Happy new year, from Twin Falls, Idaho
Happy New Year, Gott Nytt År.
Peter look at the Hurricane system from Richmond, I use the smallest one on a 42 foot sailboat, 3 station hydronic heating and demand hot water, great system.
very optimistic taking a ride in a homebuilt aircraft and doing a night landing to boot
If you make a mistake wiring...you're grounded.
Love it, love it, love it!
The only problem with the Webasto Diesel heater is that going forward this decade, diesel is being ostracised along with all the other fossil fuels. Great channel BTW.
Maybe a wood fireplace/ stove for heat ?
Wow, Peter, that Beef Wellington looked absolutely amazing. Wishing you and Lady Z an amazing and Optimistic 2022. All the best, and don’t drink too much out of Santa’s Sac, you’re already talking broken biscuits after a sip. 😂👍🇬🇧X
Cheers guys.
Best wishes for 2022!
Thanks for posting and posting. Happy New Year!
Snow and ice should be removed ASP fresh water ? when i was aboard the ice breaker CCG Louis St Laruent the scupper and monkeys island were kept clear dangerous keep it clean of snow and ice note your deck head is coming apart 32in Vung Tau Vietnam 7.33am 2-01-2022 all the best for 2022 good sailing
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Edan on M/V Slow Dance. Cheers!
Probably my OCD but I always use 20 amp receptacles and 12 gauge wire because I feel they are better quality. Can still be attached to a 15 amp breaker.
Happy new year.
Good point. I am using 12 gauge.
Peter, according to the print on the face of the duplex recpt. The ground is supposed to be at the top, WE have been installing the the recpt's upside down for years.
The reason for the faceplate screw being vertical is to keep dust from accumulating. Easier to keep the boat clean.
I’m optimistic that one day I’ll win a “Travels With Geordie” tee shirt. Happy new year to you and Lady Z.
Take care, happy new..
Great video again. Enjoy your optimism. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year Peter and Lady Z. All the best in 2022.
Happy new year. I am optimistic that you will finish that boat one day.
Happy New Year Peter.
I recognized the RV-6 airplane from my researching in the homebuilt aircraft days .
Happy new year Peter to you and yours and I still love it love it!,
Happy New Year 🎈🎆🎊 to all.
I can recommend the Wallas heaters, my father has had one since ‘96, and it’s still running just fine, and has only had 2 overhauls in that time (kitchen table 1-2 hour affairs).
In the U.S. code changed and ground plug needs to be on top. I put them on the bottom like you did. Happy New Years!
🍻 Cheers! Happy New Year 🎆
Happy new year
I tend to surround myself with optimistic people, thanks for being great examples of that group. Happy New Year to you both. May 2022 be another year if making memories!!
Happy New Year Peter & Lady Z.
Happy New Year 🎉 to you both from Norway (Skrova)
As always your optimistic outlook has led to another successfully completed project and once again proves that having optimism is the best way to look at solving life's challenges.
I like oval-head screws for those applications. They're designed for use with trim washers, but they fill up countersinks nicely and have a rounded head above the surface.
Hi Peter best to you and Lady Z for the new year! Had a wabaso diesel heater that I put in .I had an outlet in the master cabin ,the master head,main cabin and forward head.It was a forced air system and ten mins after turning it on you had to strip down to t shirts! Really took the damp out of the air. I did think awfully long before I cut the hole in the hull for the exhaust !cheers I am optimistic that next summer the word Covid will not be used!
Happy New Year! Looking great as always.
Optimistic about 2022, but Soylent Green happened in 2022.
Oh jeez, that’s right!
Happy New Year!
And yes, I am optimistic about this year! It's going to be good for most, I think - or at least an improvement over the last.
Though the word would be "chilly" and was preparing for some jokes about eating peppers in the cold ... but hey, "optimistic" is always a good word!!
Happy New Year Peter. All the best.
I've had very good luck with oil-filled radiators. Once I figure out the thermostat settings they are on all the time. I put a small one in the aft cabin and a small one in the forward cabin. More fine Wooden Boat channels are SailingWood and Sailing Yaba.
Not typical weather in your area this year Peter, I imagine that more than a few of your neighbors are in the same boat as you are. Hoping the weather changes back to normal for you soon. Looking forward to seeing more of your trials and tribulations in the coming year. May 2022 be your best year yet Peter.
Happy New Year, keep up the great work.
Happy New Year!
Thanks for more info on the weather and how you stay warm. Cheers!
Happy New Year to you and Lady Z!
-40C in Winnipeg today
Consider using brown or grey outlets and cover plates in finished wood areas. They blend in much better than white.
Peter you have a great channel....and the two of you as a couple are wonderful
