It is encouraging to see a couple of young men exhibiting mechanical skills with precision and expertise. I’ve been a handy man fixing things for myself and others all my life and it is so satisfying. Beautiful work men.
It's so nice to see a man doing stuff, and that he is appreciated for his skill. So little praise for men these days.
I usually never read past 10 or 12 comments on anyones channel, but tonite I thoroughly enjoyed reading everyone (all 196 of them). There's nothing I can added without stating what someone else said already. I've been building furniture for 47 year and totinite I sat in front of the monitor like a student learning from the teacher.
Wow, thank you!
Very clever conception and nice looking.
This design will look fine with Magic Carpet II.
Less drag than an conventional dinghy when pulling it behind you boat.
And a sail !
Greeting from France
I have the exact same radio your father has in his shop, it is a great German radio that you can listen to the world 😊
Sweet little boat and a good idea to build it before tackling the big project. I recently built a Wylo 2 in Qualicum Beach BC . A 35' steel sailboat. The first item in the building instructions was to get yourself a "sanity machine"... i.e. a small boat in which you can have adventures on weekends and holidays, while the big boat takes yet another year to get built. I built a chameleon nesting dinghy which also has a sail rig and a pair of stitch and glue kayaks... well worth it. The chameleon now serves as a capable tender and can be towed or nested on deck. Will look forward to seeing more progress . Building a boat is still one of the most satisfying things I know of
Re: Your intro... I'll believe that one; tell me another! Cheers. I get the impression that you and Andy from Boatworks Today must know each other quite well. This is because you both pay meticulous attention to detail. Nic work. Mia, I wonder if there are others who watch just to see what music you add to the video?
What an impressive kit. Well thought out, creative use of materials to make it light and strong, and beautiful lines. Another great educational and entertaining video. I totally get the satisfaction of symmetrical tape lines.
What a profesdional made one big puzzle.
If there’s one thing Aladino has shown us he has is patience! The second is a wicked sense of humor. Again, awesome music Maya!
Shes beautiful
This has been very interesting. Thanks for taking a chance and changing it up a bit.
Excellent video! I love to see how your videos keep getting better and better. Without question, your videos are the very best on RUclips. 🤓
I was interested to see you using the West epoxy again. I started using it having seen you work with it earlier on MC2. I find the ability to so easily adjust the viscosity with filler makes it so versatile in having exactly the right mix for the application.
So many thanks!!
Peter
Nice job! I've wanted to build one of these for years haven't had the space to do it unfortunately, but you've done a really nice job on it.. makes me want to build one even more now lol 😂🤣🤦🏻 👍🏴🇬🇧
Your brother is hard work when it comes to promotion.
Nice work kids. I have designed/built a number of S&G boats, and found that symmetry is more important than perfection. Chines are especially hard to get perfect. Also, changing shop temperature can help control epoxy curing speed and save on hardner investment!
What to say...Excellent ! Waiting the next episode.
Very high quality workmanship shown here ! I believe she is going to be beautiful, strong and long lasting.
It's really turning out nice, easy to look at, my doubts are in the strength, I guess. I'm not quite seeing that engineering. Enjoyed the video. That was a nice-looking knife your brother had. 👍
G'day Crew,,,
Mega cool
episode,,,
Was all very pleasing to the eye .
Delightful work Alidino, looking forward to the next vid...
RESPECT ....!
You two keep bringing content that surprises, is soothing and satisfies. I love your channel.
So happy to hear that, thank you Nicholas!
I appreciate your skill level. Great work. Thanks for sharing.
99 hours, but the boat ain’t done. Classic
Coming along very nicely.
I'm glad you are showing how long it takes and how much work is involved.
Many builders think they will be able to do it in less time than is quoted and that never happens. Usually double the quoted build hours will be much closer to reality.
Beautiful background music and excellent editing too.
Great story, I admire your infinite patience and your enormous craftsmanship
Coming along nicely!
Love watching Aladino work-methodical, calm and patient. And so creative 👍🏼
The synergy of your videography with Aladino’s superb craftsmanship makes for riveting viewing..love every minute you two lovely people…👏🏼👍Ian,Panda40 owner from Queensland, Australia
Looks beautiful as always your workmanship is very evident
I would much have a boat that you made. Boom
Amazing work well done!
POW WOW!!! Master Builder
Fantastic Job, Your boat looks very good, worth the extra time you spent. Awesome Job!
It looks absolutely beautiful. You are both doing a fantastic job
Very enjoyable but so much work you are going to have a wonderful tender for magic carpet too. The offset dagger board concept was interesting obviously under sail their performance will be a little different for up in Sailing but it looks like it will be a lot of fun to sail and row. Wonderful workmanship, what will you call her?
I have watched this build with interest, a pretty boat and clever design. Would make a good car top highdays and holidays fun boat. My concern is that for the most part Tenders live a rough life, tied to a busy quay with fifty other tenders whilst shopping, left for a weekend on the deep water mooring, dragged up and down beaches, overloaded and generally abused. So is it worth all that time and effort in it's construction, a cheaper faster more basic design might not be as aesthetically pleasing or perform as well under sail but in terms of time and cost over working life far more practical. My brother and I knocked out a simple pram over a weekend and a couple of evenings after school he was ten and I was twelve,needles to say it was a little rough around the edges we used string not zip ties and glass tape not filleting compound so it was rather slow going, but that little boat was worked for twenty odd years at very little expense and no worry.
Amazing! Looks like a lovely little boat.
I wonder why the boat doesn't have two daggerboards when they are offset. Makes it symmetrical and I would expect the same sailing characteristics no matter the tack...
It’s hilarious to watch a perfectionist be tested by a boat that almost requires imperfection to be built
TY for sharing, always a joy to watch. Any idea about , what time it would take , to build a comparable dinghy in the age of sails ? Somewhat end of 18th century ? Oc at this time they had a developed industry ---- but what do you think about manhours/dinghy ?
Awesome!
Looks super smooth. What engine will you use on it? I don’t suppose oars and sails are sufficient for anchorages where there’s a good tide or distance to cover for exploring new shores.
An interesting method of construction and lucky you are a perfectionist Aladino as I can see some people might make a real mess of this. Are you also going to use an outboard motor on occasions ?
Nice job and I look forward to seeing it on the water. Cheers John
Not only were they working on Christmas Eve, but in short sleeves. Is this shed heated? Here in central Illinois, our temperatures were down to 2°F-and that was the high.
Would it have been better to use metal wire rather than plastic zip ties? I dislike plastic for anything and It seems that copper wire would have done the job just as well.
That is the one drawback of the zip-ties... plastic. On the upside, much of the foam parts in the boat are made from recycled plastic. Offsets :)
It is always a delight to watch a true craftsman at work. Aladino's hands look like he could play the piano. I love watching his hands loving the wood into place. Thank you both for letting us watch your creative talents at work.
I'm sure I saw him fastening cable ties single handed!
Way to go. Looks like an amazing boat. Well done telling the story and the cinematography is beautiful.
Thank you very much!
@@SailingMagicCarpet Very deserved praise.
and now suddenly i want to build one of those!
i cant imagine a better promo for the maker of the kit, they should patronize you big time.
it is a delight to see the craftmanship of Aladino on the wood and Maya on the cinematography.
Thanks for the ride, guys
Wow! I watched it all and was not bored at all. The workmanship is remarquable. But the filming and editing is even better. There was no dull moment. Both of you are no only professionals but true artist. Congrats René-Yves from Québec.
Can’t believe you’re taking a break from boat building by building a boat 😂. Awesome work as always.
Aladino on a busman's holiday!
Lmao 🤣 good point.
It was that and the “this bits not on the plans but I’m just going to add it…”. 😂
In the beginning, it seemed like Aladino would prefer to be anywhere than in front of a camera. He has come a long way since then, as has your channel.
Absolutely!
Er, glad yo finally caught up with this amazing couple.
I commented on the same observation a few weeks ago. Love to see the "real" Aladino emerge.
Not sure what I’m more jealous of… Aladinos craftsmanship, or Mayas 😅
Glad you kept the bit with your brother, it's hilarious 😂
If you want a really great finish like you said a lot of work has to go into the prep. It's that simple, for instance if you doing auto body work, if you don't put in the required prep work your not going to get a great professional finish. I honestly can't see anyone doing this in 120 hours if he going for a nice bright work finish.
Sorry, not sold on the concept of a rigid tender for a 36 footer. I could elaborate but its dominant presence on deck on long passages in bad weather would give me concern when sleeping below.
I admire the aesthetics of the design and build process, but would prefer a blow up job, if stolen, wouldn't break my heart.
Looks like thhese bad boys are going around $4000 MSRP for complete kit. Wonder what the street price is.
I built 3 stitch and glue boats and where I used wire I took a car battery and jumper cables to heat the wire. This tapping across the wire ends released the wire from the joints which made the wire easy to pull free from the joints. You just heat the wire until it smokes.
I really hope that the company making these kits gave you yours for free, because these videos are most probably the best commercials they will ever get.....
indeed
This takes me back, I did help build a Mirror sailing dinghy in my youth, that was 60 years ago, they were very popular.
@@skippyone3085
Good to hear, I was training to be a carpenter so it was built in the woodworking dept of our local technical college.
I cringe with shame when I think about the horrible (compared with Aladino) mess I made with my "stitch & glue" Mirror 14 all those years ago!
@@skippyone3085me too, Dad said that the record to build a mirror was 100 hours, never said how long said boat stayed afloat, but he reckoned it took him over 400 hours, I helped finish the spars and foils. My sister still has it. The only things needing doing have been a new gunwhale and bow knees, besides a few repaints.
Your brother’s link is missing. Would you mind including it?
From a box of bits to a thing of beauty, you are a true artist Aladino.
You made him stop for Christmas!!!!!!! Maya.... You are so Cruel..... lol...... Perfection takes Dedication not Holidays........ I can guarantee that it will be the best Kit ever built.... One day you will thank him .... :-))) xxxx
What a delightful mini series. Aladino in his happy place.
Other than using larger zip ties, I'm sure this is how the vikings did it.😉
Dino is the kind of guy you want on every project. Detail is life, and he has detail in spades.
It's amazing how far Sailing Magic Carpet has come since Maya bought her first boat for $1 four years ago. Always top notch videography, music and storytelling. Throw Aladino into the mix and we have a wonderful sailing/build channel to follow. I am by no means a boater, I just love the journey these two young people are taking us on. Finally, I agree with Aladino about how long it would take to build this kit. You get what you pay for as they say, and we get top notch boat building from him. My guess is if they were to put the finished product up for sale, they could get at a minimum, 3-4 times what they paid for the kit. Maya and Aladino are true craftsmen in their own ways. Thanks for taking us along on the journey folks. Stay safe, keep well, and most importantly, have fun along the way.
They are my favourite channel nowadays.
Having watched Aladino rebuild the stern of "Magic Carpet I" and the work so far on "Magic Carpet II", Fully expected it to take longer than the stated time. I doubt if there is any ship wright that is more meticulous than Aladino, especially with his own vessel, as it should be. With Maya working the camera it just doesn't get any better for out viewing pleasure.
the craft level is off the chart. Above and beyond !!!
On Dinghies that get dragged onto the beach a lot I will use a .4 oz Kevlar veil cloth. It looks a lot like CSM but very thin, like yellow tissue paper almost. It wets out very easy, I tear the edges and do overlapping strips and I basically end up with a total of 4 overlapping layers after 2 laminations. I've used the WEST system barrier coat additive to the epoxy (graphite powder) which makes the epoxy black. Dragged the boat across a rocky beach, not a scratch or gouge. I swear you could get into the boat on a huge mountain and slide down a paved highway or drag it behind a truck and you wouldn't eat through the bottom.
I really like putting graphite powder into protective epoxy coats on dinghy bottoms.... and also daggerboards to keep them from scratching in their bearings, surface coats for molds and tooling we make. It does form a really nice protective surface that is quite a bit harder to scratch than paint or raw epoxy. Trick is to not get too greedy by mixing it too thick... instead apply 2-3 nice thin coats using a heat gun to help it flow out. On the kevlar front I used to use a lot of that for structural reasons back when it was cheaper than carbon fiber. It has its place but is very difficult to use as it is difficult to cut, absorbs moisture, and creates fuzzies on the surface. The fuzzies are really hard to eliminate as they keep springing back and printing through your finish layer. We used to always cap any kevlar with thin fiberglass cloth for this reason.
@@turnpointdesign good points, but you missed my specific reference to the type of kevlar. The veil cloth is .4 oz and random strands like CSM, so its specifically made to not give you print through. It sounds like you were using a standard woven cloth like 4 oz.
@@SteelDoesMyWill Hi Luke, I was talking about Kevlar in general-- Not the print through (when you can see the weave pattern telegraph itself into the surface finish) that is a different kind of problem and you are right that it is usually helped by having CSM fabric on the outer layer. What I was referring to is when you sand into a kevlar fabric that is on the surface, the fibers are so tenacious they do not get sanded off and now fuzzy little dry kevlar fibers are poking up all over your surface. They are amazingly tenacious things that will pop up in the next epoxy surface coat, a primer coat, or a finish coat even after much sanding. This can even happen with the small kevlar thread that is sometimes binding the edge of carbon fiber fabric. There are some tricks to getting rid of the fuzzies that can get you past this endless loop of sanding and priming kevlar... but in my shop we have learned the hard way to just avoid ever having it as a surface coat.
How very interesting. I've never seen a boat build with this method. Thanks for sharing.
Loved the ad attempt and success for your brother's work
No matter what we've seen Aladino build, it always turns out jewelry.
99 hours and the boat ain’t done need to be on a t shirt
Aladino what kind of music do you listen to? I have been looking at tenders and I really feel I could build that one! Thanks
Just a little thing, I was just wondering about how the centre board case is done? As in internally is it just relying on the squeeze out of thickened epoxy when assembled? I can't see any way of taping all of the internals easily (maybe not required or I'm missing a trick)
Lovely looking wee boat! I've been enjoying this sub series and can't wait to see the finished dinghy in the water.
There's another channel I follow (Sailing Yacht Florence) who've been documenting their ATW cruise who went with a kit built sailing tender. Theirs Is a nesting one though.
The daggerboard trunk gets filleted internally and glass taped on the outside corners, plus is fully supported by the planks as it exits the hull and where it penetrates the deck.
It is relieving to see, that there are still people who do not feel comfortable talking to a camera ;-)

Sir I m carpenter in Dubai boats ducting wording and other mentence
IKEA while watching this: 🤔🤔🤔.
Zis is a real Beauty hanging under the roof.
looking forward to more Handwerk..
I tried both wire and zip-ties, and I prefer wire. First, I can drill smaller holes (which are therefore less visible afterwards on a bright/varnished hull). Second, they can be easily loosened (unlike zip ties) and are easer to incrementally adjust. Which makes fine-tuning and readjustment simpler...
Reasonable minds differ of course. Zip-ties are faster and cheaper, etc...
Interesting, I've used copper wire and galvanized wire as well as zip ties and even gorilla tape. Your positive points for wire are spot on. I prefer the zip-ties.
Wow! It is interesting that the centerboard trunk looks off-center (and over on the starboard side of the boat). Won't that compromise certain windward (close hauled) starboard tacks when the centerboard won't be able to be fully submerged - even if it is down all the way, as the wind coming over the starboard side of the boat will be forcing the boat to heel, lifting the centerboard up kind of close to the surface of the water and possibly making the boat lose position/traction?? Maybe they don't think the boat will heel that much. So maybe it is a non issue. Still, it seems odd not to have it centered.
Apparently no difference was noticed while sailing:)
What a sight that dingy is superb work dino she looks amazing 🤣🤣🤣still can’t stop laughing at miyas brother 🤣🤣🤣fantastic bit of television can’t wait for next weeks revile of the boat great show guys 👍
Wonderfully designed and produced kit. Great dingy!
We built a 16foot "console skiff" (centre console) in about 2000 and have used it to go camping on "Tree Island" in the Sandy Island Marine Park at the north end of Denman Island. It was stitch and glue with copper stitches. I would even build a much bigger hull using a variation of the same technique. It has held up well even in 4 foot chop.... better than it's occupants ;)
Aladino, what were you using to sand or scrape the fillets? I'm at that stage of a sitch and glue dinghy. It's hard to get those smooth. I'm enjoying seeing your work and techniques.
I really like the bahco scrapers. You can also get pear shaped and round blades for it. The easiest though is to wrap some sandpaper over a wooden dowel of the same diameter.
Your brother is a craftsman not a salesman. Getting his info was a challenge. Good thing his sister is both patient and persistent 😃
What was his info? I didn't catch it.

Costaledc and wooden edge designs
I've never seen anyone glass over wood without coating or saturating the surfaces first. I have always been assured that this would lead to delamination. So Ive never personally tried this method. It could be that the dementions of your material was thin enough that the saturation would be done in your first coat.
No matter what your work looks wonderful. Can't wait to see the next installment.
I do know people that will coat raw plywood first, let that cure and then sand flat prior to glassing. You may get a flatter result by doing this extra step. But, wetting out through the glass onto an un-coated plywood hull can get you the same result and save you a step and time and sandpaper. It's all about the volume of epoxy you use and paying attention to both the color and texture of the glass.
You want the glass to go clear, lose the white color, but still see the texture of the weave. You should be able to see the grain, color and loveliness of the wood beneath, but still also see the weave of the glass. If you see the glass go from clear back to some variation of white, you need more epoxy. If you don't see the texture of the weave, but have a glossy lake of epoxy, you should squeegee some off until you get back to seeing the weave. Strike the balance and you're good to go.
Allidino messy? Not in this life.
A jigsaw puzzle for life's travels
The video production level just gets better and better! This one was pretty fabulous. And im loving the lil boat series.
I am at the build a model first stage. want to build the PM-38 from 1962 Popular Mechanics... It claims it takes $38 dollars and 38 hours (and could reach 38 mph) obviously 1962 money.. probably time too as I'm past 38 hours already just doing the technical drawings....
Coming along so beautifully. I do so love Aladino's handiwork. So gorgeous. Miss you, Maya.
I can't wait to see the last "installment". Woohoo.
Maya’s family is super cool. You can she why she’s so talented and an amazing person and artist herself… comes from good stock ❤
Watching one craftsmanship, listening to the other. Beautiful music again!
Aladino is talented and very capable. Love watching him do his thing! He will always get a wonderful result and yes it will take him a little longer than the average bear. Can you spell perfectionist? I'm and old carpenter and builder of things and I know what it takes to get above average results. Aladino, don't ever stop being you! That goes for your beautiful and also talented sidekick as well! I look forward to all of your future escapades. With love and admiration from an old Idaho carpenter.
One of your very best !..
Avoiding the word "classy", I have to say that this is an elegant video. Very rare thing. Maya, your brother is extraordinary! Wishing him well! 32:36 Wow! love the music! In summary, a lovely 'Aladino' episode. This man loved it! 200,000 subscribers very soon.
Looking great! Thank you for this episode! Viewing all the way from Victoria.
Can the dinghy be propelled with a small outboard unit?
