Btw,thx,u're the best oneman show who can say everything for skippers, who's beginning on work in a time. U're using straight methods, easy to use, and not just I I I.😊
Good stuff George and it replicates what I’ve done on my Sadler although to a higher standard than I have the skills for. I found buying the glue gun from eBay pretty handy - it mixes the two parts as you squeeze the trigger and extrudes a fine line of mixed glue, which takes off the time pressure somewhat. Great product that corian and offcuts usually available on eBay again!
Have seen those guns and did consider it but wanted to ensure a good colour match on the glue so bought the expensive stuff from the worktop supplier. May try an alternative next time
Yes, it feels weird not to have her with me if I’m honest, it’s like parting with a girlfriend after two years but you can see two more videos of her if you stay tuned and I have other boats in the yard to be working on so it’s all good.
Beautiful work! Thanks for taking the time to make such a detailed, educational video. I’m planning a galley refit in the next year or so and find this very helpful in thinking through what will be involved.
Looks very nice. Not sure I would choose that type of composite ceramic myself but is popular in homes so I guess if people like it why not. I think I would prefer a bit more forgiving surface. I was looking a one boat on line and they had put in an old style butler sink. Couldn't help thinking why would anyone do that. Watching you work I can't help thinking measure twice cut once. In my case that would be measure ten times and I would still probably cock it up. Getting that stonework exact and offering it up a bunch of times without breaking it must be a relief. Well done on a nice job.
Thanks, more and more high-end boats are going for corian type galley worktops despite its weight. As for measure twice and cut once I still get it wrong sometimes so no worries there - we all do it.
Another fantastic bit of work, videoing, teaching & entertainment! One day I’ll redo my Konsort Galley. Where do you get your Teak veneered ply from, I’m struggling to locate any 🤷🏻♂️ Keep up the great work 👍
Liked and subscribed. Great video, slightly scary to watch as I am about to shape a galley top out of this material myself. Have a question though, where to ask? Paul
Great job! I found your channel awhile ago and subbed from my other account . This is our boat refit channel we have started. I really liked your video on applying gelcoat. We had many repairs to do and found it very stressful thinking I had to buy and figure out how to use a spay gun etc. Plus the mess and overspray going everywhere. The paintbrush/roller idea is just so much easier and I think I can tackle myself. Thank you! Anyway.....a quick question. What is the name of the glue for the countertop. I purchased Corian used from someone tearing out a kitchen and want to resuse in our boat. I've watched a few videos but I can't seem to find the glue mentioned. Obviously it must come in colours like grey? Also where did you purchase it? If need be I may have to ship it to Canada 🇨🇦 Thanks again.
To be honest I’m not sure what the counter top glue is but you need to get it from the supplier/manufacturer of the countertop so that it is colour matched, this hides any joins. Pleased you like the videos and good luck with your channel, starting out is hard graft but pushing through the doubts is worth it if you enjoy the process.
V interesting videos. Have effectively “rebuilt” my boat, including the galley. I haven’t used glue anywhere, just screws, so every bit of cabinetry can be taken apart. This is obviously much more time-consuming, and therefore uneconomical for a crafts-/tradesman.
Thanks for the kind words. The owner is so excited to have her in the water, cost is soon forgotten once you start to enjoy a nicely refitted boat to last another half-century.
@@RefitandSail I agree.....labor of love. There is something about using quality materials matched with top notch craftsmanship that will bring a smile to your face every time you set foot aboard.
My other comment. The fiddles are too low. ‘Too high” when talking about fiddles doesn’t exist😂 Chart table and galley need a minimum of 3“. My opinion is based on bitter experience.
Using “but” completely negates everything stated previously-and you use it like toilet paper. Try finding other words (dictionary)to convey your thoughts and steps.
Uuuuh nice touch, the sliding cabinet doors with the woodgrain matching!! 👌🏻
Thanks, pleased somone noticed 😊
@@RefitandSail later I noticed that actually also the frame matches. Great detail 😍
The Ed China of boats.
😂 have been called worse!
@@RefitandSail it’s a complement mate. Ed does a proper job. Much like yourself. 👍
@@Leonwhu73haha, thanks. I like Ed China so it’s all good. I’m a closet petrol-head and have watched some of Ed’s content.
M8 that galley looks fantastic
Nice job!
If ya had glued a thin white nylon cutting board to the under side of the sink cover. You can flip it and have a cutting board
Jolly good work, George. As always....
Many thanks!
Really nice work!
Thank you! Cheers!
I hope that the owner is very pleased with of the quality of your workmanship George. Great video as always
Hope so too, I got the biggest hug from the owner when we finally parted ways so I think it’s all good 😊
Amazing work, I'll try to aim this direction once my galley will be redone!
Thanks

Looks well tidy.
Great work, and video. Thanks for sharing.
Great work
Great work George! The worktop and wood grain on the cabinets look amazing! Loving the big snail in your workshop too though 😊
Daughter will be pleased to hear you appreciate her artwork
That looks fantastic, what a transformation !!!
Thanks so much!
The finish shots look amazing!
Awesome work. You are a true craftsman. Cheers!
Top craftsmanship as usual George. Great job and thanks for sharing.
Great job!! Thanks for the tips and be an inspiration for my galley project,!!
Nice job!

Handsomely done sir! A pleasure to watch
Thanks😊
Exceptional finish
0:21 Lottie is leaving George? After this long and productive relationship? Perhaps a small tear will be shed ... parting is such sweet sorrow.
Yes, it feels weird not to have her with me if I’m honest, it’s like parting with a girlfriend after two years but you can see two
more videos of her if you stay tuned and I have other boats in the yard to be working on so it’s all good.

The galley looks incredible!
Great Job it looks amazing, 🍺🍺🍺
What’s a great job it looks fantastic
Looks great George 👍
I thought the masking tape was sail repair tape at first glance 😂
I take my hat off to you beautiful job well done.
Nice job 😊 Amazed by the result. Really worth copying for my Gibsea92.
Love these videos...
Much more space,barrier against fall...
Nice 👍
Thanks 😊

You could try Robbins timber in Bristol, they ship all over the uk
@@RefitandSail Thanks George, and they're even local to me!!
Hungry like a babe.😂

Your skills amaze me....is there anything you won't tackle? I do have other say, the owner of this boat must have a fortune sunk into this refit.
Thanks for the kind words. The owner is so excited to have her in the water, cost is soon forgotten once you start to enjoy a nicely refitted boat to last another half-century.
@@RefitandSail I agree.....labor of love. There is something about using quality materials matched with top notch craftsmanship that will bring a smile to your face every time you set foot aboard.
U're doing great job,but why didn't u the U profile in your galley?
Wanted to keep it in the original configuration.
@@RefitandSail hmm,I understand, but still I prefer practicality instead grateful melancholy.
Really great job as usual, enjoy to see your fantastic finish
What was the name of the compisit "Corion" plate you used?
From memory (it’s a while ago now) the worktop manufacturer was Metis.
Can I ask who’s your supplier for the Teak veneered plywood and the fridge foam. Thanks
A very informative video
does the Voyager 4500 come with a gimbal kit?
If you buy the marine version it should come with the gimbal kit and pan clamps.
George, lovely job. What satin varnish are you using for the interior woodwork?
Epifanes rubbed effect on top of epifanes gloss
Please buy more tools that have vacuum assist and use them! All that dust is making me sneeze!
Now I know how much dust is made I will do so for the next worktop made! I’m still finding the dust in the workshop!
