![This Is Our Boat?! Visiting the CAPE GEORGE BOATYARD [S4E9]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/8h7ccvppSDs/mqdefault.jpg)
I have been sailing now for more than 40 years. I built my first boat and sailed it for 20 years in the great lakes and Long Island sound. Now I have a big old fiberglass boat that requires less maintenance than my wooden boat did. But now when I get into a project, and I am trying to figure out how to attack it, I think what would Aldino do? his prep work is really an inspiration to even an old guy like me.
I built my first boat when I was 10 years old after spending 3 years as an apprenticeship marine engineer.
@@brian.7966 , you started an apprenticeship at the age of 7? Cool story.
The complexity of the refit is astounding. The meticulous work done by Aladino and Maya should result in a craft with a life expectancy of over 50 years. Truly awesome.
The editing of this episode is a WORK OF ART! The overall pace, the switching between still shots, talking heads, time-lapses, voiceovers, and the choice of music are really awesome work.
The only thing that might have made it better was if Maya had played some slow violin over the flying text at the end 🙂
Congratulations on hitting the milestone, as always it's a joy to watch Aladino work
Aw thank you so much, that means a lot
@@SailingMagicCarpet Thank you for making it❤
The barn was great, but I must say that I am enjoying the new location and the natural light. As usual, Aladino’s attention to detail is on point! Complimenti!
The natural light is definitely nice! Thanks for the comment Paul :)
She’s really starting to come together. She looks beautiful, congratulations to you both.
Aldino maybe the star, however, it is Maya's hand that rocks the rebuilt.
Maya!! This episode’s music was epic!! I really felt both the progress and the heaviness of the length of time it’s taken. The celebration and the emotional effort it’s all taken! I look forward to one day hopefully seeing this beautiful ship in our beautiful PNW waters!
Its been one of the pleasures of my life watching you both get this boat back to life, its been magic ⛵👊🏻🎻
Wow, thank you so much, what a wonderful comment to read!!! We so appreciate your support and your kind words :)
Ditto❤
I'm so happy for you to get to this stage of the refit. You two have become a standard for boatwork, and we are in awe of the craftsmanship - no, artistry - that has gone into this restoration. Now, we ask ourselves, "is this how Aladino would do it when doing our projects?"
And no doubt you have seen the t-shirt that says, "I'm no Aladino..!" Ha ha ha. You are loved and respected.😊
Congratulations to Team Magic Carpet.
Having followed you for about a couple of years now, things really seem to be coming together now and Magic Carpet is really looking like a boat again 😃🍻
Thank you Dave! Yes, things are starting to come together and we are so happy about that!!
I am always at awe over how clean your work space is. I see other boat refits leaving things not tidied up before screws and boards are out in and I like your way better. Clean as you go is a great way to do a high quality job. I bet many boat companies salivate over your work ethic!!!!!!
Yes you can definitely see the progress y'all; she's looking very proud of herself right now🙂
Maya, beautiful music selection put together with a very fine edit. Aladino is so comfortable in front of the camera and, of course, his swiss boat building lessons always shine. A big thank you to you both.
everything you have put into this project is top shelf including the meticulous efforts in installation…those chain plates are gorgeous, and just an example of the exceptionally high standards that you have set for this refit…i have owned a very high quality yacht and completed a refit using the best , but i literally drool over the thought of what this cape george will be …can’t wait to see more progress and eventually , the finished product…and mostly wish for you both to fully enjoy the fruits of your labor…keep ‘em rolling!
She is going to be the very best "Magic Carpet" in the world. The workmanship that has been done so far has been excellent. Judging by your smiles, you agree. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much for the comment James :)
It's amazing how fast Aladino completes steps to perfection, and a relief to watch today when much of the world is bogged down because of adverse weather conditions, so many thanks, Maya and Aladino, for carrying on when you could be hibernating!
The two of you are such an inspiration. I know it’s been an emotional challenge, but the progress you’ve made is absolutely stunning. I wish I could join you in person, but my Patreon support is probably more important than my physical labor! Happy New Year.
Thank you Chris!
This boat is going to be completely waterproof all your hard work is really going to pay off by the time you launch her back in the water. You've done one helluva job Aldino both you and Maya on this refit thus far, and that including the help from Maya dad of course. You've made great progress on the bulwarks as well, they look fantastic well done Alidino
How the heck did 6 thousand people get to the Friday vid before I did? I need to step up my game! I gotta tell you.....I have OCD tendencies.....and I enjoy my tendencies and satisfying them with my own crazy overly detailed work on projects. But when Friday Friday Friday finally comes around me and my OCD can sit back in our lazy chair and watch Aladino work with amazing attention to detail and vacuum up every little scrap and crumb.....No need for me and my OCD to be anxious when Aladino is working....the clamps are on....we look and look again.....everything it patted down with no wrinkles......the blue tape is doing its blue tape thing........the whole thing is very relaxing and entertaining for me and my OCD. I like viewing the beautiful boat in the outside lighting. I hope the neighbors arent letting any dust blow over to MCII while they are sandblasting.......yikes....get the vacuum!!!!!! Ok well all I can do is wait another 7 days again......Maya you were missed......you guys are special as a team.....both of you is what makes the magic so magical :)
Both of you are doing such a great job! Boat Re Fit, Filming and editing! What a great team. Can't wait for the next episode!
And many thanks to you as well...... The Champagne is now a Vintage so will taste even better when we drink it...... lol..... To be honest I do not care how long it takes.... I will still be here and Loving everything that you do..... :-)) xxx
I am always in awe as Aladino masters each step along the process of getting the refit done. He is no doubt the consummate, careful, thoughtful master of his craft. Simply marvelous!! I wish he was close to New York so I could have his craftmanship do some minor repairs on my boat. Love your continuing story. Cheers!!!
I do enjoy the videos of the work. The work is part of owning a sailboat. Aladino is a master craftsman. It's a pleasure to watch him work and to learn from him. After watching this series I find other videos of refits difficult to watch, even if they may be useful. Maya is also a master craftsman, and the videos are superbly done. Her work is just as important for MCII as is his. Well done to you both.
Amazing journey to show how much work came from finding the original bulwark problem!
I’m writing to let you know how much I enjoyed the music in this episode. The Johnny Knox track and Sammy Rae and Friends were such a joy. Thanks and hang in there ❤
PS also Tellsonic
Vancouver is home to a significant portion of Canada’s film industry.
Yes, very true!
SO pleased to see that you have almost finished the bit that sort of started everything off. You must be really pleased yourselves. I know there is more to do but this step must feel like a BIG one.
Wonderful seeing you two getting settled in and making such incredible progress in Canada!
Man this boat is going to be a beauty on the water!
You're making such amazing progress!!!
Thank you so much you guys -- we SO appreciate all your support
Fabulous work. You must both be very pleased. You refer to her as a Cape George, but she is really a new boat, and entirely individual to you two. I hope you have many happy years sailing your Cape George Mayadino around the world!
Some great tips as usual and great craftsmanship. You both must be so pleased how she is now taking shape and looking like an ocean going yacht once again......and better than when she was new .
So up lifting to see you so spring tide with promise and joy! Cheers good fellow.
Great episode Aladino! I know you did not have a fondness for the filming side of your channel but you did a great job this week on your own. I certainly miss seeing Maya's smiles, but I am sure there is a story behind that. Can't wait for next week.
I’ve been enjoying this journey for a long time. So inspirational
Looking good there Aladino.
You are getting close to the finish line.
Great Work. Your knowledge and passion for boats shows in each part of the boat you have worked on. You deserve to be very proud of your boat.
Fantastic progress and great to see you under cover, much love from England.
Fibertek is the best local store that have almost everything you need for fiberglass work. They also have PVC foam different sizes that can be used even with polyester resins.
Great job. your masterpiece craft is at a good stage in your hands and hearts. Highest Blessings
Aladino, what immense progress this week. Bravo to you and Maya. 💯❣
The music was wonderful as usual. Great choices. I am always grateful to you, Maya, for learning about new artists to add to my music library❣.
I absolutely love the music in this episode.
Aladino, that epoxy supplier that you referenced was involved at the very beginning of fiberglass boat construction in this area.
Wow, so exciting to see the chainplates, you guys are so close. Aladino is a machine!
This is the most relaxing and meditative technical video I have ever seen. Seems like the move to Canada put Aladino and Maya in the right mind space .
The amount of work you all done to this project so far is amazing.
Your boat is more like a piece of art, it takes a lot of determination to do all that you have done, you are a master of the craft. Both of you are beautiful souls. We all love you!
Welldone you guys, we live our dreams thru you
Yaaaaaay! Congrats. on this huge milestone. Love it, every time. Keep up the great work.
I hope you two are warm and cozy right now 😊 Rockin Roll as always
I know nothing about sailing or boat building/refitting, but I recognize master craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail when I see it. Aladino, you are a master craftsman. Everyone should aspire to do their own chosen work the same way you do. The world would be a better place.
This will no doubt be the best Cape George out there. It should be called a Cape George “ Aladino”.
Nice tunes this episode
Thank you, so glad you like them!
Nice music choices in this one Maja!
Absolutely fantastic. Right up there with Duracell, Parley etc. Missing Total Boat there ? ☝️❤️🇦🇺
Great idea 'venting' the hole from the top to insert the caulking, truly a surgeon with fibreglass.
Dino is a magician!!
You could get some more reflective light under your boat shed roof by putting a layer of white plastic sheets under the dark tarp roofing. That dark ceiling is stealing your light. Good progress on the bulwarks. Thanks for the episode.
Fibretech just off Boundary Rd. If your ever in need, George has a fibreglass shop just a few boats over.
Congratulations.
I guess if you had used white tarps instead of black you would get better light distribution for camera work, but then on sunny days it might get a lot hotter working under the tarps. I enjoy you both; for your work skills in front & behind the camera. 👌
Great music selection and editing.
You know you're into it deep when "maybe I'll start with glassing. That's a bit more pleasant"
Really great work 'dino!
Step at a time. Getting there!!
Yay! Great music again, thanks.
I use Jamestown Distributors for all my fiberglass, carbon fiber, kevlar, epoxy, etc. products needs.
Fantastic work. You are so detailed and accurate. Nice to see such professional effort. always a pleasure to see your continued expertise.
Well done Aladeano. That's looking amazing, great job. Keep up the good work. SV Kiwi Lady Opua Bay of islands New Zealand 👍🏿
Great accomplishment. I'm sure there's a huge amount of relief to have them back on and "complete".
Drilling outside and using the vacuum cleaner to pick up debris - only in Switzerland. :o)
What fortitude!
Aladino, be aware of the microdust now working outside. Having had a longish experience working in similarly out-door conditions with my ex boat Hallberg Pacific 28 I remember that I had to constantly remind me of wearing mask. One easily gets a feelings of working and rubbing in a nice fresh breeze, but the dust is still everywhere. I know you as a top-notch pro are aware of all security aspects ❤ Keep up the good work and be safe!
Also it would be nice to hear you some time speaking of the secure working issues, while dealing with epoxy, fiberglass + all kind of harmful fumes etc.
You guys are absolutely amazing craftsmen. I find such joy and relaxation in watching weekly and unlike other successful RUclipsrs you are who you always have been. Congrats on your continued success.
See: Houseboat Tulip on Lake union… it might be the Lily 2, renamed… it has an ofuru… it looks a bit different, perhaps remodeled or another version. I forgot that it had a raised aft “deck” for the main bedroom … anyhoo… cheers
Wow, the choice of music on this episode is incredible. Super nice moods.
This boat is a masterpiece. Great music selection.
Attention to detail = beautiful long lasting creations. Thanks for sharing your lives.
Man Aldino. You are amazing to watch. A true Ship Write, doing stuff on a wooden Boat, done the right way from the beginning. You think of so many thing that some of us Ameture Boat maintence guy would never think of, but when you explain it, it just makes sence. This girl is going to be one Solid, classic Boat. Keep up great work, the Both of you.
Lovely to hear Sammy Rae & The Friends as part of the soundtrack!
Great job! There’s something so exciting for me about seeing Magic Carpet II outside in natural light. It makes it so much easier for me to imagine you guys after her refit is complete, off on incredible adventures with her.
It’s such a pleasure to follow your journey. You both epitomise craft, passion and so much love, not only for what you do but for each other. Thank you for sharing your journey with us!
Brilliant video ! You guys are clearly a great team !
I like to shots of the deck in the evening,, I could see it out on the water 🎉🎉 , looking great so far ,, keep moving forward
On a project this size you have to celebrate all the steps and accomplishments, well done to you both and thanks for taking us along and inspiring us! 🎉🎉
I’ve been watching this show for awhile now and I just want to say it’s very very enjoyable and the music is the best too. You guys should be very proud of all your accomplishments.
I am praying that this cold snap is kind to you all and the project..
It's really taking shape you two. Not so much dirty chipping, grinding and sanding. More like making her the beautiful creation she is waiting to be.
I do not have a background in either sailing or the craftsmanship of shipwrights but I am constantly astounded by the exquisite work and attention to detail in this vlog/journey. Fantastico Aladino and Maya!!
Listening to a beautiful music and watching the boat works is amazing. This is great! Thank you.
Your videos are awesome. You couldn’t expect a higher level content, explanations and production. Part of that production is the choice of the background music. Wow, so good.
My go-to hardware store in Boston served the theatre district, and it was astounding how much crossover there was for my small boat projects.
It's wonderful to watch a true craftsman at work .
Not far off now guys she is looking ship shape cant wait to see you sailing and enjoying all the hard work Fair Winds !!
I look forward to your episodes every week. Congratulations on your progress!
Love to watch Aladino at work
Thanks Guy's, can't wait to see this boat surfing down the face of a nice following sea
Nice to see all the detail work being done in this stage of the rebuild. Getting closer and closer to splash day! The work is all good but this video is a work of art! Thank you!
Wow, Aladino!! Someone is really making this look absolutely effortless!! (I know the reality isn’t as magical but this is really taking shape very quickly! I sit here in a snow storm imagining a sailboat floating across the ocean. Thank you for this.
Aladino & Maya, the bulwarks came out beautiful. Love the chainplates, these castings are absolutely perfect. Wishing you both further success and a Happy New Year!
Hello Aleddino and maya the boot looks beter and beter wath a nice job and also nice filming ❤
