Looks beautiful. My advice for what it's worth. Just get the engine running and give it a service. Antifoul straight over what's already there just scrape away any flakey antifoul. And get it in the water and rigged ASAP, once your sailing you will find out what needs to be done and what you can live with. If you end up just starting lots of jobs you'll never get it in the water.
Thanks for your advice
Most excellent advice.
Sound advice
She is a beautiful boat and what a keel!
I agree, get her wet.
Definitly the best way to do it.
That was some sound advise, quick coat of anti fouling, service the engine, and get it back in the water asap. Remember it’s a wooden boat and it will dry out/leak.
Love the interior, looks cosy. I really hope she can sail without a massive overhaul. I would do what you can to make her safe in the water then draw up a plan of work over the next 5 years. Not everything will need done at once
Good luck. I hope this boat project lasts longer than the other ones and this boat gets you back to Colombia 🇨🇴. That would be muy bueno.
very beautiful boat. I am the owner of the 2ft smaller Fortunella 34 from the same builder. also Iroko and steel. very beautiful way of building. my advise: check every inch on rot with a sharp screwdriver. If you have a rotten piece you have to replace it. but i chose to cover the few pieces with glass fiber for one year. next winter the rotten planks will be replaced. just finished my first trip and she is a blast under sail. If you have any questions feel free to contact me!
Thank you so much for getting in touch.
I thought fiberglass might be useful in the situation I'm in.
Keep in touch or write to me richphela@gmail.com 😊
Another huge project you’re taking on. What happened to the 30ft Dutch steel yacht on Canvey you purchased? We live near there and knew of its whereabouts. Stopped by recently to see how project going but it looked abandoned
Obviously wasn't clickbaitey enough!
Lovely boat. Will be interested to watch, how much will be added to the £100, before the vessel is good-to-sail. Happy journey!✌️🌿🌸⚓️
Nice to see yours videos again, what a project she will be!
Taylors diesel heaters are were or still are made in Maldon Essex in a boat yard on the water front . (Mind you this info is 52 years old back when I liver in that area)
the black thing in the forward berth is a collapsible step, often found on the mast. Lift and tip out, then you can step up to climb out the forward hatch.
Im 3.5 minutes in and OMG, I am in love with her too, Full Keel, so rare today. I will join your site and keep up with your work. All the best to you mate.
I'll stick with you and I'll see if you can do it.
"May the force be with you."
You'll need a lot of it.
I certainly do , thanks for the force.
Alpha series Lister Petter with hydraulic valves and pump-injectors. I have a similar engine and like it a lot.
He keeps saying "I've got plenty to do so lets get on with it' then does nothing but poke around doing bugger all. I've got the feeling you don't know much about sail boats, have you sailed much or owned a keel boat before, especially an old timber keel boat?
I hope you can work hard and have deep pockets
Im going to get on with it, this was just a little introduction..
your right,I dont know anything about boats so i need a bit of help from you guys. I've got a couple of fellas who know all there s about yachts so they're going to give me a helping.hand.
Thanks for your comments.
BoatsandEngines is spot on with the advice. I'm guessing £25k to £30k to get her trans Atlantic ready.
Often the boats and yachts with the lowest purchase prices - are the *_Most Expensive!_*
Helluvalot to do? Yes and multiply that x3 to x5!
He's young ... let's see this through!
Adios,
fair winds!
Best of luck with your new boat
Thinking back on this channel. This boat is probably in the best condition it will be in during this ownership.
Great to see you back 👍👍
Thanks 👍
Thats a 3 cylinder Lister diesel engine.
Very pretty boat! Looks like the engine ignition key was on top of of the chart table when you opemed it and it slipped back behind.
What @boatsandengines says is spot on and best advice.... but also check all your seacocks are free and working and inspect the keel bolts
I hope you crack on with this one. What are you doing with others you have bought, or have you let them go to another home?
My only thought, break anything into small projects. That way you don't get overwhelmed. It looks like you should be taking a look at the hoses though.
What boat is this? You know the saying "a free boat is the most expensive one" ? :) How is the condition of the hull, does it have a lot of osmosis? Is the engine working? The boat itself looks very classic, I like the wooden steering wheel. But it looks like You'll have a lot of work with it and need to replace quite some stuff.
It's wood so no osmosis, just other possible worries. A good buy though.
Indeed, I'm sure you giving the propeller a good slap is as sound a test as possible.
I smell a Rat !
How are you getting on with your project... We need an update
Engine is a Lister Alpha LPW3 30 hp.
thanks for the info
Endless Money pit Good Luck Mate :)
Great buy. Get that chimney off the oil lamp stored in a cushioned box. East to breakfast....getting hard tor source new.
Easy to break! Damn spellgoogle!
Wooden? Whichever way you will take to make her sea worthy it will cost a lot. I would recomend to make her not leaking from up side so you can keep her dry inside. You have to take everything away and check which peaces of wood are rotten and must be replaced with new wood or plywood. When you got everything solid and free from painting you should glass fibre her. You should do the same thing with the hull. But you must take everything away and close all through holes. The rudder and fittings of course. When you have got everything free from paint and you have repaired all bad wood you should cover her outside and upside with glass fibre. Perhaps four layers would be enough. This will be the start and will take some time. To do the rest with rigging, inside and motor you can think about when you are sanding and repairing outside. No idea to go into those details now. The boat is in a good size and it will be fine once you have covered everything and got her painted. I wish you luck with your boat.
that is a huge score gongrats!
That object on the side of the foc’sle looked like a fold down step - is it under the hatch? If so it’s to help you get out.
That what I figured too.
Not bad for a £100 would have been nice to get a look around the boat and mast topsides.
4:52 5:03 5:03 if wooden boat control ALL valves! and change and backup intorno water asap
Yes, she needs a lot of work
So any idea what make or model , age and the other usual questions like how long she's been on the hard drying out.
Good luck mate 👍
Nice looking boat
Cheers
I have been looking for a cheap doer upper for years, it never happens for me. What is the story of how you found it.
Congrats on your new money pit 😂
Nice score.
Cheers pal
I'd say you got a bargain. Dare I mention the word, survey? Simon.
No, you may not, lol!
Forgive me, is this your second or third purchase?
Yea I was just asking myself where all the other boats went? It's like nr 4 now?
Me too!!
Yeah, something doesn't seem to add up. Maybe he's just having fun with youtube.
would love to see some of boat from outside?
Outside of the boat I should add :)
I bet your keel bolt's are priti thin
They are likely bronze,in which case I wouldn't worry about them
I'm still in the iron age.
Here before 100k subs!
where did you find it?
You auto Pilot looks like a Helmsman. Helmsman was bought by Raymarine
Thanks for your reply
lovely boat where did you get her for that price !
I'm at Driver's boat yard in Southampton, thanks for commenting
