Before I started watching you, on, I think, episode 3, I was an American who only drank tea once or twice a year. Then I started making a " brew" to drink when I watched, now I've got a proper pot, a cozy, and a whole new addiction! Still drink coffee in the morning, haven't turned in my passport or anything🙃, but TEA!!
Simon makes the best brews! You haven't had a good one til you have had one of his!
Like the "Moving On" music! Brought a much needed smile.
The music was completely amazing... Erik love your music!!
The boat ride was a blast... Perfect puddle jaunter.
What a great guy Robo is , he's a keeper, guys like him don't grow on trees.
U guys are doing a "imposible" job. Fixing a large wooden boat is no easy task. U got more guts than most. Wish u only the best. ❤️
How do you eat an elephant ? One piece at time
@@loveoracle8797 jup
The motor on your runabout sounds like Mum's old Kenwood Chef kitchen mixer!
Cracking a cold one open when you first get it floating will be the most satisfying beer you ever have!
agreed I might have a second?
All work and no play etc. Wonderful. Also Special shout out to Robbo.
Brilliant episode! Videographically perfect ending with Gemma waving to the camera. Robbo is worth at least his weight in gold!
It is nice to have a mate that is willing and able to help you out with the work, great job Robbie Hopefully Simon and Jenna have a spot for you Cabin Master !! 👏👍🏼
Hi guys thank you once again for the great video love your banter you really have a great time together putting this fantastic ship back together ❤❤❤😊😊😊 Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia 🇦🇺 from the big island 🏝
This is how I know it's a Friday and nearly time for me to finish working😆
Happy Friday!!!
Wow! That 50 hp came to life at time 16:08 ♥
Lovely to see you guys out on the water. It’s a nice little walk out to Hilbre Island from West Kirby when the tide is out.
Jemma - I havent been on for a while (RVing in US) you look like you are feeling much much better! so glad...
New background tunes. 👍
I'm glad you are taking advantage of good conditions to mix in some fun/pleasure with all your hard work, plus testing some of your cool new "toys"! Nice to see Robbo again in today's episode, although I did miss seeing one of his quirky, humorous T-shirts that he has worn in previous episodes! 😜It is probably a relief to have that bow section almost done before winter weather really sets in. Cheers, folks!
@3;28 The tide is high 🎵🎵 Some good Jobs, Jobbed today 👍👍
You 2 are amazing been watching you both for a bit now that boat would of been scrapped l reckon and the work it’s needed seemed impossible. Keep going and if l had more time in my life l would of been another Robo 👊🏼
Good to have friends like Robert. He is fantastic.
I really look forward to your videos can’t wait to see your progress. I love how you all enjoy life each other and always have a smile!! I wish you all the best thank you for sharing these awesome videos!
You two & your kids... are inspirational!
Thanks!!!!
Thank you! Xx
Doing a great job there! Those blue band Merc’s were around in 82! I had one, great motor, not a lot of oomph! 🇦🇺🍺🍺
It’s great seeing you pair on the boat.
Thanks!
Lovely episode. Thank you!
I'm impressed with you guys more and more as your progress!
Love the channel and the work you are doing on Sarinda, out here in the ends of the world (new Zealand) we have a thing called a thread de-burring tool, sure it must be available there. Just stick it in the drill and spin it on end of cut thread and hey presto good to go.
Great video - love those drone shots. Bit by bit… getting there!
Thought of you guys a couple of days ago, watching a video made by David of "Cruising the Cut" Vlog fame, about the restoration of old, wooden narrowboats by the Wooden Canalboat Society situated on Portland Basin near Manchester. Nice to see you making so much progress.
It was David who put me on to this wonderful channel
Deckhead not ceiling 😂. You’re getting there slowly 👍👍
12/11/2022 Hello Ship. One month until I catch up. Great work guys. About the sisters I understand. This is more than doubling the strength of the weaker member but not necessarily needing replacing. You have restored the strength but increased it by the strength of the original member. I think sisters are necessary sometimes. By bonding the two members together they will act as one member. The scvarf joints are very good also. This bonding and bolting replaces the member with enough strength to match the one piece original member. I Like this work. Good job. Don usa
Im a retired marine fitter, carry on with the way you are doing it .putting nuts on stud iron then cutting it. Will still need cleaning up after nuts removed. Love what you are doing .Best regards .
Robbo is a cool dude!
The Three Butts Boat Build. Cheers. And best of luck. OUT.
Each passing day
You make her stronger than ever..soon you will feel comfortable to move her across the water, to a more reasonable location to work in.
Keep up the good work.
Great progress. Lovely music by the way. And, a bit of sailing too.What's not to like.
Won’t be long until Sarinda is making the journey out to sea, loving it and love the weekly updates roll on the summer!
Always a joy watching your progress. Awesome job you are doing. See you next week.
One day you'll have to take the half cabin out and see if you can find a cod for your dinner!
Keep the content coming as much as possible please 🙏 🤣🙃
We have about 7 years of videos ahead of us! X
@@ShipHappensUK no shortage then lol
Gemma can accomplish anything 🌹 Simon does pretty good with her help lol 😝 I love watching y’all getting her done. I can’t get over how much the tides come in and out. We only have a couple feet here in the Gulf of Mexico.
Gemma beautiful smile always makes the videos perfect for me. Take care sweetheart 🌹 don’t tell Simon I have a crush on you, he may come after me 😢
Hello sweetie! How are you? Nice to see you still here flirting with me!
@@ShipHappensUK I’ll always be here watching every video you star in . Remember no one else can know about us. 🌹🇺🇸
@@mwatkins2464 🤣🤣🤣
@@ShipHappensUK 😂🤪 y’all take care
The ideal grinding angle is 30° off of perpendicular. That's the same angle as the side of the threads. That way you don't grind down the tops of the threads.
ya'll make this yankee smile every week!!!
Inspirational! a great episode, good tunes, and vibe.
Great fun in the little boat. Great work as usual.
Great job again, your video editing gets better Jemma, what a great team you have especially with Rob on board, those friendships are hard to come by. Love watching the progressXX
At the end of the rebuild you must tell us the number of copper nails... That you've used 😎👍👍👍👍👍😍❤️❤️❤️
It's funny how different training methods can be. Coming up in the trades, I was taught, "Do what you're told, how you're told to do it. Then, once you've completely mastered the how AND the why it's done that way and you still think a different way is better, change it and share it." Funny old world. I figure, end of the day, the work still gets done. Cheers!
Thanks for this episode.kind regards from Lancaster 🥊
You should build some portable camera mounts that you can hang over and bolt to the side rail of the ship, where there is a side rail, that also hang down far enough to mount a camera that can be used to file anyone working on the outside of the ship. Probably scrap lumber would go along way to make that happen and be light enough to carry around. Aluminum would be lighter and stonger.
What a fantastic video,it was brilliant too you all out on the sea and it's a lovely little boat,perfect for what you want it for,well done everyone you are doing amazing things x
The only thing I really remember about my boating class was when going back into port the markers should be "Red, Right, Return"
And on that you can stay on the correct side of the channel. 😜🤣
We have the exact same boat as you got.
And we have a 70hp Johnson from 1979. 😀
It makes 32 kn with 3 people. 😀 👍
Our 50hp engine has definitely lost a few 🐎
Absolutely brilliant, my dears!
👍❤
When chamfering threaded rod hold the bar in the vertical so the material being removed is pulled out of the threads,😊😊😊😊
Love watching thanks
Coming up on the witching time of year. Dark days. Darker nights . I see it . Dont let it in. Lol
Winter is coming!! I hate dark nights!
Use regular bolts with no nylon on the threaded bar. Put 6 bolts together spin the all thread and space out the bolts near the cuts.
People say this is an impossible job but I can't see its any different to building a ship. It's your life and such a great hobby to do together and learning experience. I wish people wouldn't be so negative. It's actually really annoying. I can't believe how outspoken people can be and downright rude. Yet they continue to watch you. They'll be the first to start praising you when you get nearer the end. Probably couch potatoes 🥔
Anyway to you and to all the naysayers. I thoroughly enjoy this channel. Mostly love you two as a couple. You're the old fashioned type of lovely couple who are a great example to the community on so many levels.
Two engines looks like one of those good ideas, given how often you see people struggling with their outboard whilst away from land.
We always like to have a back up plan!
The song "On and On", sounded so much like Willy Nelson in younger years, especially the tempo.
I was just watching and realized that the subscribe button was red and that I had somehow been unsubscribed! I love watching/following your journey all the way from Cobbs Creek, off the Chesapeake Bay Virginia, USA
yes a true friend worth his weight in mud hehehe
I can't remember ever hearing an outboard motor working that hard! I'm just surprised that it didn't spit out its piston/s! 🤣
Anyway, good to see the work coming on so well! Am I right in my assumption that you have to continue with the hull restoration all the way to the stern? No worries, I have faith in you 🙏 two that you will get it all 😊done!
The front and the rear are definitely the worst areas, the middle won't take as long!
Cool little boat
Well done
You can put threaded rod in and the grinder to roll nut
you also want to tidy up the ends of the all-thread to remove the sharp bits, I learned that the hard way, way worse than a paper cut
howdy Gem, Simon and Robbo. Freat vlopg and some work and fun is a good mix.
From the sound that Mercury outboard is making it's in need of a tune up and a new propeller.
Edited because of would should have been sound.
It has seen better days, its as old as Simon 🤣
@@ShipHappensUK wow that’s old 😂
There are bits you can put on a drill that will round the end and allow them to thread without difficulty.
Strange seeing that much water around Sarinda, and seeing the background moving.
i gotta say, that while a grinding wheel does work for smoothing off the ends, you can get a drill which does much the same, only a lot quicker since you just need to put the bit on the end, spin it a bit and you don't need to spin the rod.
What you want is a Deburring External Chamfer Tool for your threaded bar.
chuck the bit of all thread into your drill, rev it up and touch it to the grinder. Bobs your Uncle.
Quicker doing it like we are, otherwise we would have to put each one in the drill twice!
Whenever I have to thread nuts onto a long threaded rod, I gently chuck the rod into in Ryobi drill motor and spin the rod while holding the nut. Sure makes it easy
Just a thought…when you are cutting the threaded rods…it may be easier if you glue an old tape measure to the top of your work bench….to make it quicker and easier to measure and mark the rods….
I had forgot to ask if you had preoilers on the engines? If you do then I would strongly suggest running them for about 5 minutes prior to starting the engines. This will lube the bearings and reduce or eliminate any wear on the engine at starting.
Gemma, Why not just use non nylock nuts? Then remove them. It would save you some time with the grinding. When you remove the nut it will re-align the thread at the cut. The grind does look cleaner I must admit. As always, really enjoyed the video!
Accept nothing question everything.
Who says you can not have fun while some hard work has been done and get training in for navigation
"Why not just use non nylock nuts? Then remove them. It would save you some time with the grinding."
Because that leaves a thin, sharp, uneven remnant of the cut thread that easily deforms and makes threading a new nut (especially a nyloc) difficult and prone to cross threading. You need to chamfer the thread to clean up the cut in any event so no point in adding an additional step.
Buy a nice selection of capscrews and get on with the job or make your own. Classic manufacturing decision. You know whats most valuable to you when time is short.
Another great episode in the epic Journy of putting a Wooden Boat back to how it should be. Tell what that Stateroom ya gonna build for Robbo with his name on the door will be a site to be hold only right for such a helpful and Handsome Bloke such as he is. Hey just do whats good for you guys and pick and Choose what ya thinks useful from the comments. Won,.t be long and ya can attack the Stern. Keep at it and Carry On.😁🤣😎😷
I've seen an ad for a drill mounted deburring tool.
Hi Gemma 😊 I really like channel and you really do have some “boss” ideas” Gemma, to be honest you are both really inspirational and I have now decided to get my 24’ Bayliner in the water this year after her being trailered on my drive for several years ! Any room in Heswall Boatyard ? 😀 I heard what you said about the threaded bar (stud iron) so why not clamp a nut in mole grips and spin the other end of the stud iron in a cordless drill till the nut is at the middle You could actually even do this with multiple nuts spaced at required points along a metre length by holding the nuts one after another in mole grips and “spinning” the stud iron with the cordless drill! till the nut reaches the desired point then turn it around and repeat the process! 😊👍🏻
Best wishes Dave Flynn Liverpool.😊
Great job! Love the videos!! When it comes to cutting the threaded bar, have you tried a spring loaded thread chaser? It is like a die that has been cut into 3 pieces and has a spring buried in a channel around the outer edge (allow you to install it on the bar past the burr, then run it out to clean up the threads). Very handy tools!
I don't think we need to spend money on a tool for this when it is quick and easy on the bench grinder!
@@ShipHappensUK Good point!
You can also damage a nylok by threading it a long distance and you can overheat and melt the nylon if you cut next to it.
I don't care what others say.
You could of sent her into dry dock for weeks of work by others.
But instead you've both took time out to do it your self in away you feel best.......you go guys......I'll keep watching untill the final day you get your sea wertheness certs and take her out on to the open water.
Wish I could help more but I live near Hull and money is abit tight at moment.
Best of luck both.
Great video was that a seal by hilbre Island
Yes we saw loads of seals!
You need an old pontoon boat with just a flat deck on it store your wood saw ect drag in and out to load
I would use my wire cutters at the very end of the last thread on a 45-degree angle to remove the last flimsy bit.
This is my threaded rod two cents, don't know if it will help anyone. I work as an electrician, with 1/4 and 3/8 rod to support equipment and pipe, trying to keep your bag and/or pouch as light as possible is a must.
I find if you cut the studding with the nuts on it often leaves the sharp burr on the end of the rod, I would do it the way your doing it. I've had a few cuts doing it with the nuts on myself. She'slooking fantastic, great job.
As a electrician for 30 years I found that cutting all threads at a 30 degree angle nut threads on everytime
Cutting studs wuth nylocs on also ruins the nyloc insert due to heat generated by cutting.
With the rate of silting of the Dee estuary, have you considered how long you have to complete the restoration before you cannot get the boat out of the river?
I can't believe how hard you all work. I never did like Mercury engines and still don't the top end revving is so extreme always sound like they are falling apart. A Honda Yamaha Suzuki 50 you would notice the difference. Good job not a Johnson or Evenrude as now gone for good.
It's a bag of spanners! Would love a Suzuki engine for it!
Would it be good idea to fit blanking plugs in to the ends of the trough fittings. Just in case leaver is moved accidentally.
скоро 100 эпизод, надеюсь что-то необычное покажите))))
