- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2024
- Settling into our new dock home for the season. The bilge pump has quieted down and we've been able to catch up on some sound sleep. A huge thank you to both Leo and Captain Ron who helped us push and get the deck seams filled before the rain sets in. Swabie's enjoying being aboard full time with us! Before the bulwarks and in the boatyard the truck had been his dog house. We're making more time for pleasure and not JUST building the boat, which is about damn time!
Thank you so much for watching everyone!

Gosh she is a doll.What a lucky guy.Great video.Lots a luck to you two.
Ah! Every boat builder should have a Ruth. I've said that before, but this episode reminded me. Calm seas and brisk breezes for both of you.
Wow the Lil Rippa' really moves!
I don't know how you keep so upbeat with the amount of work there is to be done. Ruth, you have the most beautiful voice and smile. They make me forget I'm 70 years old, with the associated aches and pains 😏😄 Love your videos. Please take us with you when you go 😓
Ruth, you are lucky after one week sunshine. Me living out side of Coffs Harbour in NSW Australia over the last 2 plus months we have had overcast and rain or mist. We have been luck to get a day or two with sunshine. Mind you it's good since we have been in a drought and of-cause the bush fires for some time. But enough is a enough. Love your vid's please keep them coming and please give your pup a hug for me.
Ruth you are champion 😁😁😊👍🤗
Happy 5 years. Been following for maybe 4 years. The thing that stands out to me most is Swab aging, 5 years is a long time for a dog
Great to hear she is swelling up and the deck looks super with the caulk installed. What the heck a real bed in the vee berth? First class for sure.
I know right!?!?! ;)
Congratulations on your five year building, when your old an gray you will have great memories to look back too. Glad to hear the infiltration of water is slowing up, don't know if the local hardware store would have that many corks. I wish I had money to send but being retired and low income don't leave much to fuel up my 50' boat. Ha ha. Wish you both the best.
Like the new intro, there is no 50 footer to fuel up
Had a teak deck I put on a 70 foot boat for a customer. Planks sawn from teak 2 X 12's and applied to glassed ply decks. This was back in the late 1070's and had product the customer bought that had to be mixed and ladled into tubes for application. What a mess but figured out the tape method quickly. Ended up looking pretty good. Watching you guys work I know I won't be disappointing with your outcome. Will look fantastic I'm sure.
Don't spare the butter. Just make sure it is real grass fed butter. So healthy for you. ♡
Butter is good. Really. Sugar and carbs are bad. Eat MORE butter! Love you guy's!
Way Cool!
Nice Striper. Made me miss the trips with my dad on the San Quaquin after he would get home from building boats for Stephen's Marine in Stockton in the 60's.
Thanks guys the boat looks great 👍🏻must be really proud. Might of missed it but would love a video showing your history before rediviva how many boats you have owned what type, where you have sailed them to and what drove you both to build your own boat. Appreciate the work that goes in to making these videos to take us all along on this wonderful journey, as if you didn't have enough work! 👏👍🏻🏴⛵
You two are the best RUclips sailboat couple. You just don't pimp each other out in bikinis and shorts. You do such beautiful professional work together. I can't believe it has been 5 years. Here is to another 5 years!
A Boat is a hole in the water you throw money at and that thirst never gets satisfied. Saying that at 67 years young I have owned and built everything from 7 feet long to 120 feet long with over 200 vessels and many trans Atlantic and trans Pacific passages including major races and just for the hell of it crossings. I am prejudiced toward dagger board catamarans because they go four times the speed of a monoram and have a much better ride comfort. I do like all kinds of sailing and it is heart warming to see people called to the love of the seas and making it a lifestyle rather than a hobby. Love tour Vlogs and updates, keep up the good work and may your keels see many hundreds of thousands of miles and many cold beers to your complete enjoyment.
Yeah I heard that many times ..but is it worth it if you live aboard...by yourself??? Vs renting a place or home?? What you think ...hole in the water.
, in California where these nice folks live has the highest property value and rental property and some of the highest in the nation. Every house has a value, dock fees cost a lot. Most boats depreciate in value while most houses raise in value. A boat that sells in 2009 sells for less on the market today than a house in the same year as of now. Both have the same cost in upkeep but houses have remained going up in value where a live aboard boat has always depreciated consistently in value. I have owned many self build boats, they have always appreciated in value as long as I didn't keep them too long. You live aboard to escape the fake value market. It still doesn't make your boat appreciate your value of all the things you do. A boat is indeed a hole in the water you throw money at.
People whose mind-set leads them to accounting and investment discussions when talking about boats vs. dirt homes need to go buy or rent a dirt home. You don't get it and, most likely, never will. It's ok though. The dirt home life is no more appealing to us than the boat life is to you. When you get tired of your view out the back...or the "neighbors"... what do you do? We move to a new achorage or marina. Too cold? Hot? We get going north/south. We take our vacation home to the Keys, Bahamas and stay for as long as we like.
If you ARE going to start accounting for costs then be honest about owning that home. Don't forget depreciating items like A/C systems, your roof, appliances, pool equipment, hot water heater, water treatment system, driveways, siding, landscaping/plants, on and on. There is more expense over the years than most realize...or want to admit. Did your home appreciate in value? Sure! At face value it did. Don't forget to subtract out all of the above from the sale price when you calculate your "profit".
Ruthie and Garrett rock.
@@marineman2298 If the truth be told my Boat building habit was financed by being a building contractor buying and remodeling older homes plus new builds in the course of thirty five years. I never purchased a new boat over 40 feet because the used market was far more affordable. Buying an older craftsman home and remodeling it or two or three during a winter I made huge profits. Buying used daggerboard cruising catamarans because they are the best cruising boats never made me that much profit but you can't put a price on fun. I built big mono hull sail boats and sold them after getting all the kinks sorted out. For myself and family with my employees my contracting business left us living comfortably while vacationing on our boats. Now at sixty seven years young a live aboard is very appealing. Maybe next year, but the blood sweat and tears of young people putting all their resources into a self built boat is why I watch every episode and enjoy it. They will never get their money back but it is their private space that they love. To live your life doing what you love to do is every ones dream.
Garrett in case you didn't know already, there are 2 chunks of meat on the gill plates right behind the eyes called (oddly enough) cheeks. About the size of a sea scallop, wrap that morsel in bacon and fry it up in butter and garlic.
That first bit of cleaning the Striper by headtorch was a bit more CSI than normal on your channel. =:-))
I love the new intro. But the portholes are a tease!
I was thinking the same.
That got a “WHOAH” out of me as well.
was really hoping they might use deck prisms...not enough boats use those anymore...
@@timhyatt9185 I used one in a strategic place on my boat and it worked wonderfully. The only problem I had was fitting the cabin lining around it neatly.
Teasing us with the sneak peek at the portholes - wanted to see them fitted for ages! 👍👍
"We are six months into what we expect to be a one and half to two year project" A quote from episode one. Now five years later.... I am not laughing, my boat took years longer to finish than I thought. You can tell how long it has been when you look at footage of Swab. He has gone from a puppy to an old dog with a subsequent change in behavior. I have loved this series from the beginning and admire your tenacity and almost constant cheerfulness. Well done. I am glad you haven't forgotten how to have fun.
5 years, wow!
I can't remember how long ago it was when I found your channel, I know you were still in Washington. It might have been when I injured my back and was laid up for a bit with nothing but youtube to keep me entertained. I have been here for a few years.
And loving every second.
I was going to comment in the last episode that my favorite part of the intro was when Ruth looks into the boat shed and says "There's a boat in there"
I always smiled, every time.
Me, too.... 8^)
I cannot believe that it's been 5 years already....wow. I've enjoyed watching every vid. Congrats you guys
Portholes are a game changer!
The new intro made me smile. Good work Ruth!
So happy your vids are now weekly ! Its the joy of the week to look at you guys AND Swab ! He looks reall happy on the dingy. Reminds me of my old dog 40 years ago.
And, I love how he is so relaxed on land, but really comes to life once on a boat.
Well done on the 5 years. Boat building is such a mental challenge. 2 years myself but only fibreglass. When is that bowsprit going on
Two lovely people following their dream. I love the video every week. Keep on keeping on. Love from Derbyshire, UK
5 years. We can relate...this is exactly what we are talking about...fixing up an old sailboat or in your case, building a new boat! -Rebecca
Very well done on the deck. I'll bet that bed felt fantastic after so long roughing it! Thank you for the wonderful video. Have a great week ahead.
OMG I'm 5 years older! It has been great watching you build!
Beyond the beyond!!!! Such a special kind of heroes. Highest Blessings
A beautiful couple! Love and warmest wishes from Australia 🇦🇺
❤️❤️❤️
I must have binged watched the first year or so but I have seen all of the videos. Nice to see her in the water again, from the beginning up in the mountains.
Absolutely love this channel!!! I have gone back and binge watched you kids from the first episode to current day probably 3 or 4 times.... And, have enjoyed it more each time... Please keep it coming. Garrett, you are "Amazing with your work ethic"... Ruth, you are beautiful and so incredible!!! I hope to watch your channel for many, many years to come... YOU, Kidd's are inspirational...
Been watching from the start, have to say I’m proud of you guys! Great to see you back on the water!!
having a comfy bed is very important.
Love the new intro...what a celebration this episode has been.
So excited to see the bling to come!!!
Coiling the power cord around the Sampson post creates induction coils which waste electricity as heat. If you draw enough current (which you almost assuredly won't with your usage) you can melt the insulation and cause a short circuit. Great intro, your usual kickin' content, and pretty darn decent music make your standard, eminently enjoyable Salt & Tar episode. Thanks!
5 year anniversary! Wow God bless
Great job guys you have done very well on this project it will be stunning when finished for sure.
Bonjour,
Funny to see portholes and deck finished in the presentation and the installation of the joints on the deck in this video. Ruth and Garrett manage to time travel :+)
Amicalement, Raphaël
I noticed that too.....in one shot, there's a porthole.. but a few moments later, he's holding up the porthole to the cabin side.... But that's what happens when you have a "work in progress"! :)
Please keep videos coming,i love the boat an everything can't wait see in action on ocean sailing around the world
Congrats on 5 years! You guys really inspire!
You two have worked so hard and Rediviva is so beautiful, i can't wait to see you sail ⛵ away.
One more advice: Before sandpapering the deck you can cut the Loctite lines with a very sharp chisel. That save time and sandpaper.
Lines should be as clean as the taping job once the tape is pulled off.
Fun to watch! Peace out!
Wow guys, you've been busy! The deck is really taking a nice shape and appearance. Can't wait to see her tape pulled.
If you're going to get a fillet knife you need to get a high dollar one with high carbon count so you can keep it razor sharp make it work a lot easier , I've seen charter boat deck hand do it with a electric knife but their fellahin multiple fish everyday day in and day out
Every episode a winner. Thanks, guys. 🤙🎉💥🤛🏽💯
Just fill the gap and use a spatula to press it in then sand it when dry
Can't wait to see those port lights go in!
How time fly's when your having fun....nice to see it back in the water.
Things of such beauty do take time. I'm 4 years on mine, your 5 years sounds about right to me. What sort of fish was that. Look just yummy...
Those are Stripped Bass, they taste great as long as you cut out the lateral lines in the fillets. Very tasty game fish and if you have any kind of social media many Chinese people will pay two dollars a pound for the heads and fillet removed carcasses for fish head soup, I lived in the bay area when I was younger and caught lots of Strippers and I had lots of Chinese friends who would fight over Strippers and Albacore.
Great vid.....you make work look like fun! 😝 I think I am going to try using the Loctite to repair the seams on my 40 yr old teak decks this spring.
Great video guys and really upbeat. That deck is going to look beautiful when finished. Do us a favor? Wear your kill cord in the dingy. Ant, Cid and the pooch crew. xx
Love the new intro, followed the protocol..good work Ruth. Garret seems so chilled.
I am watching all of your episodes and what can i say, you are a grate teem, you have done a grate job, hope to see your next episode soon.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY !!!! , still loving that " You're coming too " moment ! ;-) ;-) ;-)
Me, too...
I wate and water till your next video comes out then there it is and then it's a happy happy day from there on
Next time bake that Striper with stove top stuffing mixed with shrimp sliced onion and a drizzle of white wine over the top salt and pepper....
" Swab The Wonder Dog" was ready to take flight as you cruised down the river!
Fantastic always.
It's going to be interesting to see Rediviva with a tiller, mast and sails. Will you have some kind of autopilot? Not having a cockpit feels awkward though. How will you sit and relax with your hand on the tiller? I can't wait to see you guys when all your projects are complete and you're sailing her.
As a teenager I sailed in San Francisco Bay on a Tahitian Ketch that was a converted lifeboat. Those times were a blast.
Is that Adobe? We just switched our channel to davinci resolve. We are so happy we did. Change is painful but if you ever have a "bad day" with your video editor give it a go.
Hi, must be so much better on the water. Keep up the good work and love the new intro
13:55 Garret looks up..."Your hair looks like a full moon rising through streaks of clouds!"
Always look forward to your vids to see the progress,its unbelievable that its been 5 years already ! Keep up the good work but don't forget to play every once in awhile!:)
Our house flooded in Harvey. Our wood floors swelled, and then shrank. I started fixing them sort of like your boat. I taped off each crack, but filled the cracks with a mixture of polyester resin and diatomaceous earth. It worked okay, but took too long. Then I started filling with the same mix without taping. Of course I scraped off the excess mix and let the floors harden. Then I sanded it with a 7 inch circular sander. It worked great. Try it.
P.S. I colored the mix to a wood tone using powdered cement color which I bought at Lowes.
well deserved and yeah me too cant wait to see how she sails.... cheers mates
Can’t wait to see how she sails for you.....
At 6.20 Ruth comments on decompressing, sloping in and just relaxing, the music is by Klingande, I think, with their style of saxophone, piano and percussion ... just right.
ติดตามมานานแล้ว ชอบเรือ...from Thailand.
Nice upbeat episode!! cheers!!
hi boat is going well and it looking very good
I follow the building of Rediviva since the beginning. I like the project and the enthusiasm of Ruth and Garrett. But somethimes I wish - while watching the latest video - I could say stop and give an advice. I never worked with polymer glue from Loctite I always used Sikaflex. But I am sure the one from Loctite will also shrink an you should not flat it with your finger. You will found Lower spots which doesn t look great after sandpaper the deck. I also use a primer pefore filling the gaps. That cause a better contact to the wood. Greets from the Baltic isle Fehmarn, Holger
Haha you guys are great!!
I watch from the begining👌👍
Been following since day one, when you guys were blogging
Your boat is looking awesome, cheers👍
Have been watching for quit some while too. Haven't missed an episode in the last 4 years. Pretty amazing what you have accomplished! Sikaflex 291i is about 8 euro per tube, even less per box hier in the Netherlands.
Can't wait for the rigging!
AWESOME
Comon now. Not year five. SEASON five. Gotta serialize this stuff for future re-run royalties :P In all seriousness, thank you for letting us watch your reality show.
Nice video! New intro looks cool.
Also, now I want a nice cold IPA too
My favorite filet knife: Mora with 7" stainless blade. Flexible, but not TOO flexible like a Rapala.
Fun, mini dance party! Like the new intro, miss the dingy bits though.
OMG that's a lot of work to caulk the deck timbers. But I guess if you do it right you do it once.
Fair winds.
living in a boat on the hard is demoralizing.. until you splash!!
"Soon, that'll be us." But first, more work on the boat! ;-)
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Garrett says: “If it gets rained on now there’s no way water can get to the plywood”. Hmmm. I like your confidence but don’t be tempting fate like that m’ boy. That’s an overwhelming amount of caulking and a staggering amount of money too. You saved on labor though. Don’t ever do the minimum wage math on that over a 5 year period. Lol. Good thing that you’re young, strong and ambitious. Great work and always interesting videos. Thanks, now get back to work. Lol!
30 tubes at $5 a tube is a staggering amount of money to you?
JC1028 I saw the one bead from the bowsprit to not even the cabin front that I thought he said was one tube. Then didn’t they use several tubes to go around the cabin? By that I figured 150 tubes at least for everything (bow, sides, cabin top, stern deck) Didn’t she say that she cleared out 3 stores whole supply? I didn’t realize it was only 30. Guess I should have paid more attention.
@@garyfairbrother5532 They used a lot more on that first seam. They changed their method and taped the rest of the deck, using less caulk. All covered in the video.
Just curious. Knowing what you now know, would you have done the boat build or would you have found a good boat and spent this past five years in where ever ???
It has to come to mind that they could have worked for salary for the past 5 years and bought a completed sailboat.
Soon 50 k and your doing it.
so glad you went for round portholes . . . . cant stand the square plastic ones . . .
congrats-- I did Hoyden 's deck polysulfide by hand caulking gun. three cases
of tubes. not fun!!!!!!
Did you ever consider caulking with traditional hemp oakum and pine tar?
*Hey Ruthie, Striped Bass, Stripers or Rockfish as the Indians called them here on the Chesapeake Bay, are the best tasting fish, Sea Bass however taste like poop, I never heard anyone call Stripers, Striped Sea Bass? Sea Bass is a whole other species. Pocahontas even fed Rockfish to Capt John Smith! These fish originally come from the Atlantic Ocean and introduced to San Francisco Bay via trucks in the 1960s, they spawn so heavy at times in the Chesapeake Bay that you can just reach over the boat and grab them with your bare hands or walk into the water from the shoreline and grab them! Striped Bass is the State Fish of Maryland!*
----> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Striped_bass
This has been an absolument amazing and unique build to watch evolve from scratch. Wondering if a heavy wall steel sleeve for the mast base would be merited? Looks fragile without something to temper the leverage of the mast against the deck, something uncompromising extending down from the deck to the mast seat thru the living space. Just asking - I'm def no shipwright.
Interesting endorsement on the PL flashing caulk. Have to wonder why you didn't put a float switch in the bilge. I figure a nights sleep for two is worth the $20 for the float.
