A big thanks to @TotalBoat for supplying us with the Alumipaint AF for Chuffed's bottom job. We sand, prep and paint our aluminum hull sailboat with ablative antifoul.

• Bottom paint ~ what you get when the cockpit seats are freshly painted. ❤😂🎉
Haha to true!
For home improvements, I have found a short 12-24" roller extension pole makes rolling paint a million times easier on the arms and hands. Wishing you happy sailing and lotsa helping of animals.
Great tip! We did think about that afterwards haha, next time!
Delos sent me, thanks for the animal care you give. I'm a traveling nomad on the road. Spent 4 months around Mulege, Conception and that area in 2022. Beautimus.
Welcome, we are Chuffed to have you! We really love the Sea of Cortez and are excited to keep exploring and helping, cool you know the areas we are visiting!
Thank you for not saying "on the hard" even once in this video. Instant thumbs up.
Hahaha wasn’t even a conscious effort, I always say “the yard”
It's good to see people properly protected to apply antifoul! Safe travels ❤
We have been trying to be better about personal safety with this stuff!
Is that a race !🚴♂️🚵♀️🚴♀️
Jim can’t be overtaken! I on the other hand ride leisurely
@@VetTails being reliant in the fact that comfort trumps being first is really a measure of your self confidence, on the other hand glad Jim was up for the challenge, First is first afterall.
Haha he has a secret competitive edge!
Amazing work!! She is looking beautiful!
Sure is - thank you!
Its always fun to Ablative your bottom, but it is hard work. 👍 great update
Haha for sure
Thanks for the consistent quality! Respect 👍
Thanks
Sent to you by DELOS.! Will be watching!!!
Awesome, welcome!
😀👍👍👍❤ Thank you, Dr Sheddy and Jim, for all your hard work. I live in Seattle, WA. and have thanked Brian & Kaza for helping Sailing Chuffed.
The Delis crew are awesome - we are really grateful to them for sponsoring a project! Hope Seattle isn’t too cold 🥶
She looks great! Looking forward to your new season 🤗💞
We are excited too
It will be interesting to see how the bottom coat works. Great video!
Yeh, we will keep everyone updated, really hoping its better than last season!
Frantically catching up!
Getting closer!
Lol. The black socks are back. Jim best market his signature black socks.
Haha great promo product idea!
Great content. I'm retired from the US Army Veterinary Services. I came way of SV Delos :)
Welcome! Glad you enjoyed it - hoping to have some good sailing content this year too!
If you have not put the boat back in the water, try mixing ivermectin into a last coat of bottom paint. It seems to work wonders on barnacle growth here in the Chesapeake Bay.
Oh I never knew that! Will see how it goes without it (already splashed) this season but going to keep that in mind!
You should of had your deck boy sand the keel box! Got to keep the chuffed babe happy! 😄
I’m the only one that fits up there!! Thankfully he did 80% of the remainder of the hull hehe
good work, hard work, done
Yep!
Better than keel hauling. That was the sentance if you were bad, but it is prefered this way. Good job and video
Oh yeh, sometimes feels like punishment though!
The Boatyard Blues!
Haha they’re real
Merci!
To you too!
Chuffed is looking beautiful!
Thank you!
Still frantically catching up!
Nearly there!
Nice video. I have a 35 foot aluminium sailing yacht which is currently painted, so I will be stripping it back to bare aluminium this year. When you applied your anti-foul, did you primer the surface first? The painting guides I have found so far have suggested primer, fairing, then anti-foul, is this needed with Total Boats paints?
We didn’t because we did primer last season, this paint can go over existing good condition paint. In our boat yard season (season 4) you can see the full process but we did etch primer, epoxy primer and finally antifoul
👍👍❤️
Glad you liked it!
Is there no possibility to catch the poisonous paint you are scraping of? Or do the marinas have any kind of catchment in the waste water system for that?
We have eco paint that is copper free, so in theory ok for the environment, but the marina does have side drains to try catch the waste too
👍🧿
Thanks for watching
