Small suggestion: tape or wire the handle of that new through-hull ball valve back onto the fitting to ensure that no accidental knock can open it. Suggest replacing it with a permanant one with a double-lock on the valve handle. Nightmare waiting to happen as is.
Very true !
or just remove the orange handle
@@leighstevensmusic Take the handle off rotate it 180 so its on the hull side, no accidental knocks
I have two unused through-hull valves, but I have a hose on that ends above the waterline for safety.
Could always put an end cap on the valve. Wouldn’t matter if the valve tap did get knocked then. Just make sure the thread is sealed.
Those helicopter noises for the drone-footage, is kinde neet...! :D
I LOLed when I realized what it was. Pretty clever.
Was going to comment the same… Priceless! 🚁😅👊🏻

Looking for looking for this comment comment
Loved it lol
That launch date must have focused your mind!😂
Now to make all those temporary solutions permanent.
Congratulations on your amazing progress.😁
That paint patch on the hull cracks me up each time I see it!
That was the exact same track that Ship that got stuck in the Canal made just before he got stuck ;)
zee weener
What a COCK up of a job..this boat will fail 😂😂😂
All you had to do was to loosen the cable, set the rudder to centre, then refit the chain with the wheel centered and both ends the same length. You can do that in the water though. There should be a mark on the top of the rudder post for dead ahead .
All the best;
SIKA-flex is the single best sealant to ever exist. Love that stuff. I have used it for decades to seal windows in all applications.
That was a very big victory as she's now in the water moving under her own power and not taking on water.
Very well done young man, very well done...
Congratulations. You've put in a lot of hard work and there is still plenty more to do, don't forget to take an hour here and there to enjoy all you've accomplished so far. Grab a chair and a drink, head out on deck and just relax.

Good job but as far as rust is concerned on a steel boat. Don’t take short cuts whatever you do. As for antifoul don’t skimp on that either. Even antifoul your prop it will foul up in no time. I hope it all goes well for you. Safe boating 👍🇦🇺
Very happy for you!

Well done and thank you for letting us see your progress enjoy from here on Alan Australia
Congrats there. Enjoy your work and boat life!
I started watching these videos last night, and I love this series. And its because its so realistic. Too many project RUclips channels show things way over the top, which is fine, I like those too. But your temporary fixes are a breath of fresh air. Also, your channel is the first one that hasn't made me think that I could be a master welder if I just bought the equipment, which means you are the realest. Thank you.
For a first launch (after only 30 weeks!), that went amazingly smooth. Good job!
Thanks for sharing that video. Congratulations, great deal of work now rewarded.
Well done, great to see her afloat. You must feel good after all that hard work
I think it's only fitting to say "Captain" of my very first boat 👍
Nice looking boat! It will be great when finished. Good work so far!
Looking good. I hope my family and I can do this in a few years. Looking forward to seeing your finished project.

Awesome congratulations!
Amazing to realise how much you've done in 30 weeks!!!!
congratulations in the water and your first cruse that was AWASOME!!!!!
Congratulations on the launch! Frankly, I did not think this boat would be even close to being launched this season, no less at the beginning of May - and she runs and floats - EXCELLENT JOB!!!
Now please, please, please remove those tattered burgees (flags if you're a landlubber) from the "Masthead" (the piece of wood holding the anchor and forward nav lights) and keep these videos coming. There are still a ton of things to be done and we can't wait to watch you do them!
Outstanding I’m glad I found your channel I’m going to go back to the beginning to see your first video on this boat
