Great video! I have seen a few negative comments on your project but what I think people don’t understand is that Uma is one of three characters of the story! I don’t know what it is but I loose interest in other channels when they trade in there boats for so much more expensive yachts. So from a fan that has been with you since you purchased her in that boatyard keep up the good work!!!😊
Agreed. Way too often, some of the other channels seem to have become the “problems with new boats” channel. I suspect the analytics will support my concern.
I am anticipating a future episode when Uma is sailing again and Kika stops and says, “Listen how quiet it is!”. Everything is coming together so well. Happy for you both. Your hard work is paying off.
I like how you explained how you normally wouldn't use nails in the boat but given the seal they definitely should be fine. Even if they rusted the remaining bond would be the same.
Thanks for the video. I feel for you working all this time in the 'itchy and scratchy'... the paint will help that a lot! I have built surfboards in the past, I know this is different, but when I see you working with resin I am screaming "faster, faster before it sets up".... the old days in me!! I have sailed a lot, I try to imagine how I would change the layout of a boat given the chance. Loved the custom quarter berth, best place to be in a blow. Keep it up, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Awaiting next week, another step closer to the ocean!
These are my favorite videos of the boat build. Just to watch and go along with what you’re doing and think about how I might have tackled the issue. I had a loot of those moments when building the camp. Great stuff. Sean
I can't wait til Uma is back in the water! U two are doing a great job. I worked for my friend Steve, a master boat builder (now deceased) for about 6 months while his regular partner recoverd from heart surgery...and u two are doing a great job as far as my limited 6 month knowledge can tell......
Weep holes you say - us ex Royal Navy pedants call them - “A limber hole is a drain hole through a frame or other structural member of a boat designed to prevent water from accumulating against one side of the frame, and allowing it to drain toward the bilge.”
@@scottcates Indeed. A particularly good idea (especially in, but not just in, wooden bolts) is to rig a synthetic line fore and aft passing through each row of limber holes, with a short piece of suitably small (plastic) chain hitched to it where it passes thru each floor (the proper name for the frame reinforcement under the cabin sole) to keep the limber holes free of debris. The ends of the line are tethered to lengths of bungee cord, so all the holes can be cleared at once from any point.
I'm continually surprised by the level of detail (compounding insulation in the hull) etc. that you are using for your wow. lots of time and. money etc....WOW, well done on the refit of your boat!
Another great video! I'm way too old (78) to be crawling around anywhere, I even have to have a plan for getting up for the rare occasion I get down, but I surely enjoy watching you two very talented wonderful people do it. Keep up the good, and so precise, work. 🤗
Excellent work! You 2 are Master's in boat construction! You're advancing rapidly to the fun parts--building the interior!! WooHoo!!....btw, that was an Excellent ad for Better Help Kika! I believe it's an excellent service to provide assistance for life balance for many more people than traditional counselling.... 😊 We enjoy your videos and appreciate the explanations for the of your work!❤❤
This entire refit of Uma is absolutely riveting...well done. I'll be very curious to see how the reconstruction ultimately affects the waterline. Keep up the great work!
@@sashabenoit1518 ,you are so funny ...a minor shift in the whole spiritual planetary dynamic from satanic enslavement via MSM ,to people power ,and open source information .. is good to have a break ,and watch some 'work' ,for a bit .
Extra Foam sheets and Fiberglas for: Not port lights - Inside of cabinets Not Chain Plates - Too squishy Underwater Lights - Not required My best guess is, Extra thickness for Dock Bumpers and Slings - I think so.
As always an awesome video. You guys are just so good, I love the production quality on top of the awesome DIY projects (and, eventually, sailing again!).
Another fab instalment. You guys honestly are such a breath of fresh air in an otherwise stale life. Your project is more than just refitting your Pearson. 🙏 which happens to the the same age as me but might just look better even now 😂
My guess for the reinforcements toward the beginning is to give a strong base for something outside, maybe connections for lines that hold the mast in place. or maybe a bracket to hold lights or instruments outside, or a garden. .
I always felt if the hull was strong with bulkheads and all you guys are doing then like a bottle floating in the open sea and no matter what the conditions are as long as the bottle cap (companion way) is secured you should never have to worry about sinking. Nice job guys.
It's kinda funny how you're glassing in all these cabinets and tertiary things so much better than the main bulkheads were glassed in when the boat was made. It seems like if you had just rebuilt the cabinets the way you're doing now the boat would have still been 1000% more rigid than new. I'm excited to see how your new rigging stuff figures in, I forget if we've seen your preparations for that yet or not but I'm sure you guys will have some fun making those sufficiently overbuilt to go with the rest of your work. I think it was a no brainer for you guys to jump on the opportunity to do this DIY rebuild not just because obviously we all love seeing all this work, but you're also getting the cheapest boat made this well you could possibly get, and as you discussed in the previous videos it would be hard to find anyone to do this level of work for any money. Also, personally, this is my favorite phase of the channel, I got into you guys because I loved watching you do boat work, and seeing you travel the world is cool and all, but finally seeing you guys tackling the final boss of boat work is a sight to behold. That coat of primer is going to be magical... (and as a bonus it'll finally look like the renderite version on the screen!)
You two are so inspiring, the way you work together is amazing, I don't know if people properly understand how difficult it can be to undertake such an endeavor and stay civil 😬The fact that you have literally touched every single aspect and square inch of this build is going to payoff in the future when anything needs attention 💫💫💫
I’m constantly impressed with that too! Not just that they’re still civil and still working as a team, but that they still crack each other up and find joy in working together. That can be so hard on frustrating projects, when nerves are wearing thin and exhaustion has stolen some of the joy. I love seeing them be silly and make each other laugh.
You guys are such a good team, that is wonderful thing to have created. Sure it must be challenging to work and live with the constraints, but you both have the fundamental design skills to really engage in the process. The absence of external work, really keeps it as a beautiful partnership. Along with your years of experience sailing and living on Uma, it is a very powerful combination to develop and realise this project. You make great videos too! I'm surprised you are applying the Sikaflex 291i on open joints, are these not more suited to being glassed? and the 291i used to make vibration resistant joint seals? Apologies in advance if I am missing something.
So cool! And I'm guessing the reinforcement is for a new type of rig! Keep it coming - loving every step along your journey!! And please come back to Norway ❤️
Firstly, it's irrelevant for use of nails ... but the real issue with ferrous metals in oak is not specifically the damp, it's the manner in which oak (and other acidic hardwoods) eat ferrous fixings. Its similar to the damage from anaerobic corrosion in stainless - you experience significant loss of material deep within the fabric

I've been watching delos build their new boat so boat work is kinda interesting 😳
I totally agree, but then again I did get into sailing video by watching Mads from Sail Life do his "somewhat extensive refit"
@@LostYogiIm so glad he’s doing another one!
@@ottigreenisgo Me 2, now I got 2-4 more years of Mads doing boat work to watch 🙂
It just like me working on my airplane. 90% done, with 90% remaining to do. Cheers from Winnipeg.
same with me but with my snowmachine, oh the joy of projects
Just one overwhelming sense of achievement at a time . . ..
LOL. Truth.
Time to spare, go by air.
Same with full-timbered house. Seems to me like a mandelbrot...
I am anticipating a future episode when Uma is sailing again and Kika stops and says, “Listen how quiet it is!”. Everything is coming together so well. Happy for you both. Your hard work is paying off.
Whenever I feel unmotivated or lean towards slacking off, I get a Uma refresher.
It really is a big motivator for daunting projects, isn't it?
Perfectly released at prime time. Friday night is saved! 😍
It's just noon here in Seattle!
RESPECT for the amount of work you are both putting in too that boat.I bet you can't wait to get back on the water.from Architects to boat builders 👍
Beautiful craftsmanship and teamwork. So rewarding to see the primer come on, after all the work.
your kidding right?
Congratulations. That is a big milestone you have reached here.
Being able to start painting.
A new chapter begins in refitting Uma.
I like how you explained how you normally wouldn't use nails in the boat but given the seal they definitely should be fine. Even if they rusted the remaining bond would be the same.
Wow! Coming along! Love your DIY videos!
Thanks Dan and Kika❤❤
You guys are *awesome*.
I have said it more that once, that your relationship with each other is what really make the channel great. Wishing you all the continued success!
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. You both are rays of light in the world.
Keep on keeping on!

Love you kids! Can't wait to see you & Uma on the water again. Be well. ❤
Super video, super project, good work, we all the continued success, thank you!!!
Looks great!
WOW - You folks are getting things done.
I see you and hear you, Kika! I hear what you did with the music and the table saw and the sander. Wonderful! Loved it.
These are my favorite videos of the boat build. Just to watch and go along with what you’re doing and think about how I might have tackled the issue. I had a loot of those moments when building the camp. Great stuff. Sean
Starting to look like a home and not just a hull. Well done.
Well done, you got so much done this week. It really showed. This week's episode was fantastic!
So great to start seeing it come together!
I am SO excited for you two. You have worked so hard to get to this point! It was a LOT of work kids, you have done an amazing job.
It is so satisfying to watch you creating this kind of new boat step by step.
I believe that you are adding hull windows so that the vertically challenged member of your crew can look outside while inside the cabin.
My two cents is NEW FOUND METAL ports are best there is. Great company to work with. 😊
I would guess for chainplates.
@@atlestoraker4812that's my guess too.
I agree, hull windows!!!!
I loved what you did to Uma the first time. I can't wait to see what you do with her this time.
amazing job , it will be the strongest possible. My family built boats and your attention to the details is truely impressive.
I can't wait til Uma is back in the water! U two are doing a great job. I worked for my friend Steve, a master boat builder (now deceased) for about 6 months while his regular partner recoverd from heart surgery...and u two are doing a great job as far as my limited 6 month knowledge can tell......
Wow,, it is taking shape,,, I love watching your channel..
Love it!

@@Gottenhimfella Fantastic idea. I've seen LOTS of older sailboats with rotted soles that would have benefitted from such a setup.
It's so motivating back at work to see you guys back at work. Watched you since after college much respect.
I'm continually surprised by the level of detail (compounding insulation in the hull) etc. that you are using for your wow. lots of time and. money etc....WOW, well done on the refit of your boat!
Congratulations
Strong boat strong people.

It's starting to get so close! I know there's still so much more to do after this, but you'll have the FEELING of the completed structure!
Nice to see you rebuilding the interior
I’m impressed. Great core and alternating chop strand and light woven!
I just love your channel ❤️. Your energy and optimism is so much fun to watch!
Cheers from Southern California USA 🇺🇸
Holy crap! That is amazing! Hope you like the size because that is going to be a life long amazing boat.
Congratulations! You have come a long way.
So excited to see this project finished it’s come such a long way and you guys will enjoy it for years to come
Looking great guy’s 👌
Yay 🙌 I cannot wait for the primer either, this is the stage it all comes together visually! So exciting!
You are both doing a great job, just hang in there
So excited for you guys!🎉
I am guessing the extra foam is for mounting the forward facing photon torpedo tubes.
You do have photon torpedo tubes in the design don't you?
Boat too small for Quantum Torpedoes?
@martinpugh9700 They may raise issues with the Geneva Convention. Liable to create wormholes or undead cats.
You guys are the best!
Great video guys! As they say, 90% of successful finished product is prep work, and from what I am seeing, your knocking it out of the park!
Totally spoilin Uma!
Gracias por lo que he aprendido. Ánimo con el trabajo, os dará como recompensa los frutos soñados.... y serán deliciosos.
Quite the milestone! Well done.
This entire refit of Uma is absolutely riveting...well done. I'll be very curious to see how the reconstruction ultimately affects the waterline. Keep up the great work!
Great progress this week. Keep it going!
Really coming along nicely! It's always a great feeling when things start to come together and resemble the finished project.
_AWESOME!_
With everything going on in the US right now, I really appreciate some time watching boat building to get away for a bit. Thank you.
What's going on in the US right now?

Amazing dedication. Super good work. 🇨🇦
lets go looking good
Looking good! No squeek wood work takes TIME and LOTS of epoxy/glass. Hope your fam in Haiti is doing ok.
I felt that glueing ASMR
starts looking like an interior; good work.
Love the opening track, sanding and cutting sounds sync’d to the shoegaze music. Good stuff.
Always push sealants into place. Even in the state compounds are found in tubes, we are stretching the material when we pull the nozzle along.
I am enjoying the build. I noted you couldn't find stainless staples. There are staples/brads made of Monel, a corrosion resistant metal.
Great progress. Really coming together. I always enjoy watching your work. So many more skills now than in your first project.

She certainly is going to be much stiffer making her a better boat. Well done! 26:24
Wow! Such a great video, guys! You've reached a really exciting point in your build! Well done! 😊Lauren😊

Tab everything, yes it takes a little longer however it makes for a stiffer and stronger boat.
Waiting for you guys to start sailing your own boat again. All my favorite sailors are working on their boats.
