DIY Sailboat Woodwork - Free Sailboat Catalina 22
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 сен 2021
- In this episode of the Salty Dawg Series, I use some simple carpentry skills to make some of the brightwork on my beautiful Catalina 22. I save almost $1000, by being resourceful and making instead of buying. Thanks to Jack Butler to teaching me about carpentry!

Looking forward to updates or just the finished boat!!!
Great videos. Please do more. And you’re good at product reviews/ placement. I need to refinish our C22. These videos are helpful.
Enjoyed this. I have a different boat, VN 23, but many of the same issues are there. This is helpful. Thanks for posting
Fairwinds and following seas. I hope you’re fine satisfaction and enjoyment in your new boat.
I'm loving every minute of it. A wiser sailor than me told me I'd better fall in love with working on my boat rather than just sailing it, and that's exactly what I've done
The top weatherboard is supposed to overlap the boards by at least 1/2” or you’ll have water inside when it rains
I haven't had that issue yet but I'm sure I'll run into that sooner or later
Can confirm
The hatch boards are also supposed to overlap (ship lap) to keep water out.
Looking forward to the next one!
Nice work. My salvaged Catalina 22 has its boards and rails, but they were rough. I was fairing and filling deck voids with epoxy, and I just used excess mix to coat the old wood. Same with excess deck paint. Doesn’t look great but passes muster, and keeps it dry now for the 9 months it’s been back in the water sailing. I love sapele, but may just get a sheet of starboard when I replace them. Nice work, and thanks for the inspiration to get back to mine one day soon.
Can't wait to see you on the water out there!
Great job. I just got a 78 Catalina 27 that I will be start on soon. Your channel is helping. Thank and keep it up.
Congratulations! The series is obviously limited and I'm way way way behind on editing and releasing videos, but if you ever have any questions, let me know and we can be the blind leading the blind! Good luck and fair winds.
I planned some well worn 45 year old teak down flat, and sanded some other pieces.. applied teak oil. It looks good. ...I don't think it made it a year before it was gray again. Of course there's the gray-teak crew that is just totally fine with awful looking teak but, I'd rather have something synthetic than let it get all bleached out.
Keep videos coming more frequently and u could make money
Thank you bud, that's my plan!
Keep it up mate. Loving the content and technical bits of information
Thank you bud! I'll keep them coming
@@petesfleet640 if I was more local to you I would love to stop by and help for a bit, but I am in New England.
If you ever find yourself in South Florida, let me know and I'd be thrilled!
looking forward to some more videos, enjoyable to watch. does your friend have any more boats like this around?
On my companionway hatches they have a 45 degree bevel between the boards with an opposite bevel on the top board so they interlock. Cool channel. Keep going! Looking forward to seeing more videos! Did you know you have a fleet of C22's out by you? Look up Fleet 77 out of Fort Walton Yacht Club.
I considered doing it that way, but figured I'd try my luck this way. If I have to add weather stripping in the future, I might but for now it works great.
And I didn't know that! They're about an 8 hour drive from me
Looks good. If it was me doing the work I would have use Starboard to make the door pieces and the weatherboard. The other option would be tinted plexiglass for extra light in the cabin.
That is obviously a great idea. Not as cost effective, which is clearly the theme. Plus I have always been a fan of beautiful brightwork on boats, and while this is very crude, it's much closer to brightwork than plastic. PLUS a stark white plastic would really accentuate how badly I need to paint the topside of this boat!
@@petesfleet640 I get it. I was just saying what I would have done. I like good looking boats as well, but my wallet and I like low maintenance boats even more. I'd rather spend a bit more up front and never have to worry about it again than have to do more maintenance.
@@gsh341 I see the wisdom in that more and more every day
Realizing that I am watching this almost 9 months after the fact, so the issue may have been corrected. On each hatch board there should be a small lip on bottom of each board to overlap the lower board, that way there will be no water intrusion in really heavy rainstorms.
How happy were you with your new Keel Winch and which one did you buy?
Just wanted to check in with you to make sure that you are ok. What is the next project that you are working on?
Good job I just bought a 1982 Catalina 22 ft. Sailboat missing hatch boards I would appreciate the measurements for the hatch boards.
I'm happy to take some rough measurements, but because I built the rails myself and routed them myself, they're not consistent, they don't match on each side, etc. I don't think it would be what you want. If I were you I would either use cardboard to template like I did, or maybe look for an original set to take measurements from. Good luck!
Would you buy a boat without a title? I bought a 1974 Hurley Silhouette and I can't get the title transferred.
Won’t it leak from top ??
Maybe, but I haven't had any problems with that yet and I've had them on for a few months
no new videos?
That's a consideration for sure... or at the very least re-sealing these. I got a few spare windows from the C-22 graveyard where I got this boat, but for the most part, the windows that are there, with no cracks, little to no leaking. Aesthetically I would love to have brand new clear windows, but in the mean time, there's no functional need. I'm first doing functional, then comfort, then aesthetics. And trying to do it all on the very very cheap!
