Boat Repair: Dropping the rudder and fixing the damage on the hull
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 май 2024
- Boat repair never goes the way you want. There is some serious damage inside the boat from removing the thru hulls. We go over how to repair it, then we drop the rudder so we can see why it's sticking.

Sailing into freedom needs our help: ruclips.net/video/Df-XCtfU9kw/видео.html
Looks beautiful keep going!!!!!!!
What a cool post! Thanks for doing that!
Sent Plukky a little cash.
Plukky has received some cash from me.. Sailing into Freedom is a great channel..Pure quality people
@@andrewkeir2282 that's a good one buddy
I have sailed with Plukky and he and Margarida are awesome badass legends ! Please support sailing in to freedom! It’s a great vblog and and great ppl.
The reason I watch Sailing into Freedom and Sailing Zingaro is that you are both authentic and sail to places well off the beaten track on yachts that people can aspire to purchase. You are living the dream though hard work. Yep Petes busted ass boat does needs a leg up. you get more respect for lending a hand, nice work dude. Hope to see you back in the water soon. Petes videos with the Italian girls in Qld Australia is worth the price of a new bilge pump. The bunker group is on my list of islands to visit in 2021 thanks to Pete.
Good on you Mr O and thanks again to James for the shout out. James is the best!
Gosh, just found your channel and got caught up with the last boat breaking (I live Kona and never knew about this event!) ... I have been following another boating adventure where the catamaran manufacture was clearly to blame ... that caused a freaking bulkhead to break! (they are now dealing with it in Panama, Carribean side) ... seems some of these boats were built like autos with planned obscene obsilence in mind! ... but your new boat does NOT fall under that category, happily! ... I am 70 and grew up surfing N Shore Oahu (due to my not-mainstreamer parents) ... but you are living a life I would LOVE, if younger now ... love the freedom you have and your self-sufficiency in knowing how to fix anything! Can hardly wait to this gorgeous completely finished with all your know-how & love! ... ps, I am watching the crazy Venee Global race happening right now ... and the guy that had the lead, carbon fiber boat just suffered structural damage he will have to fix by himself ... wow, crazy!
Thanks for helping Peter and Margareda out on SAILING into FREEDOM. Your a good man James 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Yes thanks indeed. You my friend are a friend in need, top stuff James and thanks for your support too Tom
I can vouch for the 'grinders are really dangerous part' had one shatter and a piece hit me in the eye (I wasnt grinding just helping hold the piece and thought my spectacles were enough protection - wrong!) I went blind for a few extremely scary hours! I have a new appreciation for the bravery of blind folk!!!
Doctors told me grinders are the number one cause of serious industrial accidents.
Say it almost every post, but that boat is amazing....man am I jealous....know that time in yard means money leaving your pocket, but what potential...nothing like larger monohulls....everybody likes them....
Peter jumping in the water with bull sharks, and getting the shot, is the most radical thing I have seen since you swam under Zingaro to lash it back together. Thank you so much for plugging him and to all those patrons out there who make these sailing channels possible.
Hey James I just sent Plukky $200.00 after watching him jump into the water at night with those big ass sharks.What a crazy video I hope it works out for him.
And he did too. Thanks Mark and thanks to James for the great shout out. He is like a brother from another mother. Top stuff
Man, I wanna tell you something, the last few years I was lost after leaving the army. I decided after finding some travel vlogs this is what I wanna do now, and So off to Thailand, as much as I loved it, I realized there was so much more to see, so I started looking at sailing, yours among other channels, I bought a boat this week, it needs work, but the boat is sound, no electronics, but. Thank you and everyone like you, people need inspiration.... I hope that one day my story my journey will inspire others as well......
Good luck on your journey!!
Congratulations! That’s so inspiring!
Awesome! Good luck, my brother. Hope we bump into each other. :)
Splendid. I dug a modest hole under my boat to drop the rudder !
Thanks for supporting Plukky my friend! The guy is an amazing sailor and is now needing some help, so thank you James!
James, the music sounds like a Herb Albert modern style jazz. I am really enjoying the music.
You know what they say about Jazz: 1000 chords that 4 people listen to. Pop music: 4 chords that 1000 people listen to...
Wow! I was not expecting you to reply. How awesome! Thanks James you made my day. 😊 Happy Sailing @@thelastpirate ⛵
Fantastic ... well done for giving Plucky a shout, I know he will appreciate it,
And indeed I do. James is a top bloke, no doubt about it. And thanks for your support too Dave
@@SAILINGintoFREEDOM Head up Plucky we're all rooting for you brother !
when i sailed across the pacific in 2010 my rudder snapped at the waterline right in the middle of the passage between Noumea to Australia, ultimate cause is we had excessive play in out rudder stock, this allowed for the slightest lateral pivot pressure to develop and in large seas the rocking motion caused metal fatigue to develop and of course the snapped rudder stock occurred during the night.....luckily the rudder was built with positive buoyancy so it stayed within the rudder stock just riddled useless...that rudder stock looks quite staunch so probably no issues with yours but good to ensure there's no excessive play.......keep on with the project brother!
The strike was wild looking
Really nice to see you supporting Plucky. He's really taken a huge hit and he's a unique and remarkable person. I hope the support he gets will allow him to fix his boat up better than it was before.
Man you have inspired me brother, I bought a 1974 ericson 35 mk2. Thanks for setting me on my journey.
Great jazz music while you were inside!
I found your channel through Sailing into Freedom!!! Both channels are awesome and truly inspiring!! I am plowing through all the episodes from the start and this week I hope to be done to the latest episode from this one.
Awesome! Thank you!
A set of hole saws may have saved you trouble and mess. The method: 1) Get a 1x6 or metric similar sized piece of wood. Hole saw a plug from the 1x6 that is the diameter of the hole in your hull. 2) Put that plug into the hole in the hull and duct tape it on the underside of the hull to hold it in place. 3) Select a hole saw that is the diameter of the glass fiber that you want to remove. 4) You may need a longer pilot bit for your hole saw arbor. From the inside. Use the pilot hole that is in the wooden plug to stabilize the larger hole saw as you remove the glass fiber with the larger hole saw.
You can use hole saw sizes that are progressively smaller to remove material that needs to be removed. You seem to be a skilled craftsman. You decide if this method could help or adjust it to your particular situation.
I hope I have described this method in a way that you can follow. While I have never cleared a through hole in a boat, I have used this technique in similar circumstances many times.
Thanks for the videos.
Yep digging a hole below the rudders is what I did on my 35’ IPC, to remove the rudders. Keep the videos coming James.
Good on you for mentioning the problems of Sailing into Freedom.
Your a lucky man James!! I’ve dreamed of that life style most of my life, gotten close a couple times, but never all the way there, and now at the tail end it’s nothing but regret, so my advice to young people, go for it!! Don’t hold back, and don’t let anyone hold you back
Your right bro ! I’ve dreamt of it for 8 years now 😢 regret, but soon 👍
Oh yes oh yes 👍 in sooooo many many ways! ⛵ now officially a SKALLYWAG seriously gotta support James. His content knowledge kindness & him in every way deserves any & all support. Grateful for you brother👍 ⚓⛵
I love the term, karma bank. Doing maintenance and upgrades on a sailboat makes RV work look like a day at the park. You choose great music, which i find is the hardest thing to do in editing. Larry
This channel is curing my desire to become a boat owner pretty effectively :-D
You don't watch Parlay then.
Well... just don't buy a boat that's been sitting. Boats need to be used.
Me too as much as I love the water and sailing
Depends what you want to do, but small boat, small problems. Go small, go now.
I bought a trailer sailer, 6 m. For sailing in Swedish lakes and around the coast with an archipialago. Some repair on a 20 year old boat and trailer, but also alot of sailing for the money.
@@andvil01 How true we have owned a range of yachts all around the 38-55 both sail and power my spouse told me one day not long ago "you can get a bigger yacht if you want" its like the IRS saying you have a bigger refund. My immediate response was No not gonna do it let's get a smaller yacht 38 - which we did and its still a fair amount of effort.
Watching Plucky's video was intense. Nothing makes me more nervous about my boat than lightning. Parlay just got struck too.
Oh yeah I love Peter and Margarida..and when they were stuck out at sea for 78 days. They've been through alot.
James, every time I see your new intro I realize what a great job you did on it; brutally honest but fun at the same time!
I saw his video the other day and wow... I have been following you both for some time now.. It's amazing how mother nature levels us all no matter where you are or come from. That sux that he was punching them out instead of cutting or trying to unscrew them, he has made your job soo much harder and longer.
Hats off to you. Have been watching you and Plucky since the start. As he would say "Good on ya"
And Top stuff
James I have to comment that your videos are a lesson in patience and perseverance. I personally would have pitched a major fit and burnt the boat to the ground long ago. Keep up the great work and live your dream. Cheers.
Well we all know you will get this bad girl back in sailing shape so we’re on tippy toes watching your progress!
I spent 5 hours chipping away at the gravel,concrete mix to lower the rudder on my last boat, saved me 200$ got there in the end - ! job at a time mate - looking good .
Thanks for the update. Looking forward to see your progress.
Very exciting to watch your boat repair works, looking forward to see more videos.
Soon enought it will became a beast ..this sailboat ....looking good ....you learn many lessons on Sea ..do right one time 👍😜👌
LOVE PLUCKY AND MARGARITA!
Great Video. Love the time lapse. We get to see a lot more of the work being done.
Well done! Really coming along. The rebuild videos are as good as watching the sailing stuff!
Yet another amazing video can't wait to see more. Between you and sailing parlay I'm loving the on going projects
Hi there, I own a Dufour 40 ( 2008 ) and lets say, at this moment everything allright, smooth sailing.
But when I see you taking your boat apart, how strong and well built everything looks, I know I'll never be a blue water sailor anymore.
Cheers from Belgium, COVID-19 worldchampions.
Another good one, interesting design for the skeg and rudder, there are a lot of forces from wind, current, wave, water resistance, engine vibration, etc etc being transmitted to the rudder post and it's supporting structures, you illustrated the stresses in your video well, and your presentation, and video editing are informative without being dry, keep up the very good work.
James,
Great channel.
When it comes to boat projects , you have the right mindset.
Veni Vidi Vici..
Peace.
Love Sailing into Freedom. Thanks.
Awwwww schucks
LOVE that intro. You really do explain cruising soo well. Awesome karma bank! :)
Positive vid for once in awhile. Good to see you enjoying the challenges. Keep it real.🤟
Great video. All I can say is, “ keep on keeping on” !!
Good ! I see you are making progress. Wish u luck.....don’t give up mate !
Good on yeah James that cpl are so beautiful and that was definitely a escape of mega proportions a strike that close very lucky aye
I'd wait on the new parts for the bottom holes. You should be able to clean up the damage. Glad to see help! has arrived.
Somewhere that's an understatement James you got a whole lot of work to do
Great progress bud, keep at it!
Good looking out for the community. I helped Plukky as much as I could. That’s some next level sh*t man.
Tamara and her husband Irvin are the good spirits on Curacao. In "Sailing Insieme" (unfortunately in German / Austrian) they appear in episode 46 and 47. "Wiener Schnitzel" and "Kaiserschmarrn" are reserved as tribute. If someone comes there he should book their company, it is called Powerboat Caribbean.
Keep p the good work James!
Nice dude, promoting Sailing into Freedom. Good job mate. Take care of your Aussie bro.
New to your channel and catching up. I only wished this cured my desire to live on a sailboat, LOL. I missed why you are taking off the rudder. I'm just the lowest level supporter for now. But thanks for the info and the entertainment.
James - a suggestion. Before you go any further why don't you take a day and with a couple of friends completely clean out the interior of the boat. Throw out shit, vacuum, brush, sweep, wipe and clean. You will have a much better sense of what there is to work with and much less demoralising to open a hatch and find a clean today space, even if there is work to be done there. Just a thought!
Going to send another $100 this coming week.. let's get this oyster back in the water!
That's awesome of you, Shaun, thank you so much. You helped me buy new hatches. :) Keeping me DRY!
Great episode man. Bests
Congrats on an insanely difficult task! I thought you were crazy when you told me what you were planning. However, as far as the reinstall goes I think you'd want to add a very thin (very) release agent and then epoxy the shoe back in (talk to Eddie at Oyster first. He'll know). It's super important that the shoe not flex from side-to-side or else it will stress the rudder stock and bearing. Once epoxied or otherwise secured make sure to run the rudder to both locks to make sure it's aligned properly. You don't want it to bind up along the way. That big, solid stainless steel rudder stock and monster quadrant were actually a big selling feature to us. When I see the broken fiberglass rudder stocks from the modern production boats sitting around the yard I always smile to myself. Too bad about the through-hulls. I think when I do mine I'll grind the lower flange off, then cut out the threaded upper section if I can, then use the sawzall method with a fine metal blade to cut the through-hull into quarters or thirds vertically. I just replaced the chrome-over-bronze clamshell head vents on Talisman last week, and although it sucked, it was nothing like what you went through. Keep up the great work.
Yeah the rudder was a big bitch. But it's done. Guess I didn't have to change the bearings... that sucks. Tons of work for nothing... But everything is new now, so that baby is SMOOTH as butter. Autopilot won't work too hard.
Good luck with it brother!
Enjoy your channel. Lots of info and a nice dude..
Love your work man excellent video SV Bullseye
Thank you for posting
Rock on man still watching 👍
I absolutely loved sailing into freedom plucky in margarita are the best would love to see you guys do a video together sometime
Great vid.
Good luck brother.
Dude I’ve seen a lot of your videos and every time I always see you as a modern day pirate haha!! Keep up the good attitude brotha! One day when I can retire I will buy a boat and start my adventures, it’s to late for me to just stop and sell everything especially after a separation, but sure you know what I mean. Thanks for all the info and entertaining videos really appreciate it !!
WOW everyone should definitely watch that its insane
True that about the angle grinders. My little brother took one to the face working in a crawl space. Luckily he was only left with a scar, but a bit more either direction he would've severed a bunch of nerves or lost an eye.
Plucky is a badass I love the guy I watch him all the time
Awwww schucks
Not a bad idea 😝 we went through similar hell with our skeg
Damn thats one thick hull down the back, nice and solid, Oyster quality.
Hi There, I used to work for Oyster for 16 years and know these boats very well. Do not hesitate to contact me. You can always contact Oyster as they will always go out of their way to help no matter how old the boat and how many previous owners!
Dude you the man !!!
I hope he gets to see your comment
Oooo nearly 100k 😁👍⛵️
Killed it with the intro 💚✅💙
Hey James, late to the party as usual but just a word to the wise. Silicon bronze is about as stable a metal as you can get. No good can come from grounding to any other piece of metal. Leave them isolated and it will be fine.
good on you brother!
Nice hull if that thick , sweet
If the rudder shaft had not dropped clear - there still would have been no need to pay $250 to have the boat lifted - it looks like you could have just dug a small hole in the ground under the rudder to allow it to drop far enough down to clear the hull. (as it didn't look to be a concrete pad on the hard there)
The marina doesn't allow digging here.
Yep buried electrical lines and such can pose a safety issue to digging holes.
Fair point, got to follow the yard rules then.
everybody digging a hole at the yard, your next on that place, you imagine...
@@thelastpirate Better to ask forgiveness than permission, however in your case scraping about with a trowel to gain an inch or two......
Hectic on that rudder job James. I’ve got a few Dutch friends. The Dutch girls love sailing dude maybe Bianca ? Wants to crew.?
Love you bro, (you know I loved Kimmi more, hey but that's the way the cookie crumbles)
Love you too, Colin! :)
If your boat had been too low for the rudder shaft to be able to clear the hull you can dig a shallow pit under the rudder to provide more clearance, if the yard is okay with you doing that but it's always easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission... : ) Good Luck!
When prying if there is room, a joint knife or putty knife against the soft stuff can really reduce the damage. As space permits some plate stock scraps will do even better.
that's niCe Captain James
Hi James great content thank you for taking the time to do it ....your the man bad ass in all the right ways love what you are doing 😎😎ps I clicked on this one cos of picture of you and the girl haha
Plucky the boat slayer 😎
That a solid boat
I've been watching plucky for quite some time when he even had the cat.
Your welcome. I click to learn.
This dude must smash sooo much tail! I'd cuddle with him... props for helping out his bros!
You can dig a hole under the rudder to drop it out, it's cheaper that lifting the boat
Good deal on getting that rutter off... and hope this lady is your friend too... lol
better put some armor on, dutch knight. There's coyotes prowling in the boatyard....
See ya found a new friend...
" Longreef" was not a Crowther Spindrift 37 James . Same catamaran as Zingaro ?????
Peter is a legend though. Unlucky poor guy.
