    I cannot believe the amount of effort you have put into this project. I have enjoyed each and every episode from the very beginning including the interesting and humorous commentary to the occasional music. I hope that in a new future episode you include a celebratory gathering of friends showing us all how much fun you will be having!

    I am glad that You Tube prompted your video as it is just the type that I like to see!
    Your calm narration and good videography makes for interesting, informative and entertaining viewing, and your choice of soundtrack adds to one's enjoyment!
    I particularly like your vessel, and an really pleased to see that you are investing the huge amount of labour, materials and finance needed to bring her back to a seaworthy condition.
    I shall enjoy catching up on your video archive and am pleased to subscribe to your channel.
    Whilst I usually can't stand videos which contain sponsored promotions, I wholeheartedly support sponsored promotions of materials used in the actual project and which may be of interest to viewers like myself, which this particular product is!

    I am beyond impressed with the amount you have learned through this project, I love that you not afraid to show your mistakes or even that your not a boat builder. This channel will give many people who want to do this that extra push because they can relate to not knowing a whole lot. All you need is the will to do it and the rest comes with trial and error. Thank you for documenting these.

    I can only say, I am extremely impressed at you attention to detail on this quest. Your insulation/ soundproofing was a masterclass on its own. You have turned this collection of issues into a practical, functional and beautiful craft, truly worthy of a proud captain. I can’t wait for splash day and subsequent adventures. Congratulations on your hard work.

    I found you recently and love your work and videos. I’m addicted to all forms of boat restoration on RUclips, you are among the best in my view. As for the suggestive pattern on the hull, it’s detail looks intact and correct from someone from a French speaking country! All the best on the project

  • @paulschlechter9408
    @paulschlechter9408 3 года назад +24

    You've done an amazing amount of work...congratulations !!! With the sound insulation, you might want to tape all the seams with metallic air conditioning duct tape to make it a continuous surface. Noise can transfer through the small seams and reduce the effectiveness of the sound barrier.

    Probably the best video so far in this series. I laughed my A-- off at your commentary while you were grinding the hull, too funny. To date, what you have done with this project is truly impressive and I cannot wait to see the boat in the water! Great work as always. One suggestion, you should introduce yourself in your opening so we can all relate to you. I've been watching you do your thing for months now and I still don't know your name!

    Zasadnicza podpowiedź!! Szlifowanie kadluba to zagrozenie na przyszlośc. Trzeba było młotkować!! Chyba że to remont na sprzedaż, a klient dalej niech sobie radzi.Pracowałem w porcie jako tallyman i często widzialem, jak zaloga przed farbą młotkowałwa kadłub, co w sumie było z czasem zakazane. W końcu to skażenie morza.
    Zazdroszczę możliwości☺! Wiek nie pozwala na takie "doświadczenia"😉!!
    Wierzę, że efekt zadowoli armatora, a woda, wiatry i stopa wody pod kilem, pozwolą na wiele radości z pływania☺!

  • @daveevans7438
    @daveevans7438 3 года назад +4

    What you're grinding away is "fairing compound"
    Used to "fair" the hull...
    Or give it the final shape and smooth.
    Fairing compound is much different then just normal "filler compound"
    Investigate this and discuss it with your local marine supplier...
    From the looks of the trapped water you'll more then likely be removing all and starting from a bare hull....
    When it comes time to do this find a local that has some experience with this.
    There's is a trick and process that will help a lot with your final result...
    You'll need a yard that offers blasting service.
    Looking good. Keep it up!👍

      Hopefully this advice is followed. It would be better to save up money and have this done by someone that has done it a thousand times and has all the right tools. Patching the bad areas until they have a chance to get this done is a good idea.

    I love the narration over the time lapse... I just caught these in the recommended column and started with this one. I find myself wishing we knew what it looked like inside... the layout... and I wanted some idea of what you want it to look like when you are done. You've probably done all that in earlier videos so I guess I have some uploads to check out.

    That was a lot of work. There seems to be an excessive amount of filler in some places. You are doing a great job. I can’t wait to see it in the water.
    Edit: the shape of the one hole in the paint looked to me like a “hawk sitting on a branch”

    • @editormayday

      The amount of fill is pretty normal for a steel, aluminium or concrete pleasure boat.

    @michaeldecker2725 3 года назад

    If it’s temporary why not leave it alone until you can properly script the hull. You also have an enormous amount of what we call “bondo ” on that boat. It does not seem environmentally wise to grinding the filler off. I would recommend a chipping gun and/or needle scaler to remove it without sending copious amounts of non bio-degradable dust in the air.

    It has been really good entertaining fun watching you rebuild this boat.

Your ingenuity and coming up with ways to deal with it is just inspirational

    It is really very nice and satisfying to see how, despite a lot of work and that not always everything is so easy, you still give everything to achieve your goal. I wish you all the best for the future, and you really deserve that beautiful old boat. And always a hand's breadth of water under the keel!

  • @mark703
    @mark703 3 года назад +1

    Ultimately, a strip and repaint would be best but understand that's not possible where you are. The thickness of the bog on the hull is incredible, this would add so much weight, also the bog being hydroscopic is where all your problems are coming from with the blisters.

  • @fonhollohan2908
    @fonhollohan2908 3 года назад

    Wow, I cannot believe how much Bondo is underneath that paint. Btw if you want a tip to help you out as you go forward, here is one for you. Feather back those edges completely, where you have removed Bondo feather back the edges all the way. The purpose of this! so you will have the maximum amount of surface area to help secure the new Bondo to the surface of the boat. Hope this helps you out, the boat restoration is coming along great by the looks of things. Keep the videos coming bud. cheers ...

    @AmericaVoice 3 года назад

    I recommend you use heating duct work metal lined tape to tape your seams and around the pipes and areas where there are seams, it will make a difference in sound and reduce speed of firespread. If you have any Fire and it gets into those seams and behind the insulation it will burn hot and become very toxic! It would be money well worth spent if for a sad reason it catches on fire in the middle of the water sway from land. It could also reduce the fire getting oxygen! You could also place a decent size CO2 bottle for Fire protection and/or use a fire grenade placed in there in case of fire! I am a Former Fire Chief and Paramedic and they have and will continue to save lives. Out on the water you are your own fire department for a Emergency due to the delay in getting help! Keep up the great work 👍!
