No worries matey, always happy to give credit where it's due, although I might skip the video if it involves polishing chin plates again, or else Carly will only give me a hard time that ours are not perfect mirrors 😂😂
Really enjoying the easygoing style of your channel and your enthusiasm to learn. Regarding chainplate maintenance - from my experience you can be certain that there is rotten core where the chainplates pass through the deck. It might have been a good idea to take measurements with a moisture-meter on the fiberglass underside of the deck (as the topside teak deck covering would provide misleading readings). A more general recommendation would be to buy a moisture-meter and get experience taking readings wherever possible. Core rot is the cancer that slowly destroys older sailboats. Any progressive core rot must be stopped in its tracks: (a) wet/rotten core removed/replaced, or (b) wet/rotten core dried out and then saturated with low-viscosity epoxy. Each approach is a massive amount of work, which must be done under cover. You may have taken into consideration when buying this boat that if/when you find elevated moisture in the core, due to leakage around screws penetrating the fiberglass deck upper skin, you will have to remove some/all of the teak decking to remediate this problem. I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Don't worry about not polishing the chain plates. Once the protective corrosion layer sets in they won't be shiny any more. I shook my head when I watched Mass do that. To each his own I reckon.
I know this is late but I'm just now watching this video. In re-installing your chainplate, I think I would have sanded and epoxied the wood you mounted it to down below. Any moisture that is in the wood will seep out and provide a source of moisture that will be in constant contact with the chainplate and it will lead to corrosion again like it was before. And any moisture that seeps down the chainplate will soak into the wood and cause it to rot.
Great stuff as always. 1. high anxiety over the small bit of cereal cream on D's beard in the first segment, 2. So glad to know your British History lessons took and you connected with Excalibur (very dramatic moment!), 3. And that amazing wooden vessel you are rafted to, and 4. A wonderful perspective on global anxieties...and a vision for Cadoha's future. (5. Never seen a chainplate so carefully cleaned!) Well done and Cheers, Peter
Hey, Peter, appreciate the feedback, ha ha, I think that was actually beard wax (I rarely eat cereal), although I'm not sure that's actually any better 😂 The chain plates cleaned up nicely enough and given that they're mostly hidden away, I was happy to not spend several hours on each, turning them into flawless mirrors 😬🤭 Hope you're well and staying safe?!🙏🏻
Nothing more satisfying than cleaning up old metal. Nice peace of mind for you! I always edit with a drink 😂😂 makes it so much more enjoyable! Off grid essentials..... water maker, solar, wind, FRIDGES FOR BEER, water heater 😅
Sailing Cadoha well I’m living on one at the moment, it’s just 110m and £250,000,000 😂😂😂 amount of sailing channels I have seen that don’t have warm showers, not sure i could deal with that. Just started watching Kara and Nate as they travel in a van and they have a small solar water heater..... their fridge is far too small though! Haha I love the Delos under saloon seat freezer that’s epic! Keep doing what your doing guys 🤘🏼
@@ChrisHudsonVlogs I'll be sure to keep buying the lottery tickets and perhaps one day we'll join you 😂😂 Until then it's solar upgrades, bigger fridge, water maker and an induction hob 😬😬😬
Of course everything is getting done the Captain(Carly) is in charge! I hope you guys are safe and well too! Cannot wait for you guys to get under way. Cheers as always!!
You guys are doing an amazing job so far! Keep having fun, being funny and interesting and your channel will BLOW UP! And don't forget about Hank!! He is the star. Ha!
Hi folks , we have just started following your channel, subscribed hit, bell rang all the normal lol, great to see more UK people doing more sailing video channels. look forward to your next posting, great job , Sonja & Andy.
That's awesome, nice to 'meet you'. Well with all this Covid bananas too, it looks like we're about to set off on some very British adventures also around the UK 😬
You should really NDT the chain plates when they're cleaned up, a visual is not really good enough... Ferretic plates can be inspected by Magnetic Particle Inspection, Stainless ones will need Dye Penetrant inspection :)
Hi .glad to see Hank is over seeing all of this ,he must be logging all this down for when the Admiral,s inspection is due and you both could get your good conduct stripes ,keep it up ,were waiting for the BIG OFF complete with your new strips on display . ttfn
Great video guys, as always. Really like your planful thinking regarding your future videos too. Always something to learn about and pass on with boat stuff. Now, be careful with those scissors....the wild and woolly sea going look is what you’re after.....yup!?
Ferral wild seaman was the look I was going for, that or Tormund from game of thrones? www.google.com/search?q=tormund&client=safari&rls=en&sxsrf=ALeKk02jD_EGijbtwvU5TEROQUT7hyaXbg:1593582451608&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj16MqfravqAhVRSxUIHboeBhAQ_AUoAXoECBsQAw&biw=1429&bih=735&dpr=2#imgrc=NkB5W55W29wLkM
Awesome again guys, you are getting so close to living the dream now. Carly just do it, that beard and hair has got to go before the 4th! I was near you guys last week helping a friend pickup and deliver a boat, completely forgot to pop by and say hello :( Take care and all the best, look forward to the mast going back on and seeing your planned upgrades. Paul
Yes we've decided we need so much more to enable us to be as 'off grid' as possible. Solar, more batteries, washing machine, water maker, induction hob, etc 😁
Sailing Cadoha A few suggestions: Make sure that you have a multifuel cooking capability (I am still to get an induction element as a reserve in case I run out of gas). Washing machine 100% agree, if you haven’t encountered Wago electrical connectors...get some (they are not water proof but will make connections a breeze ... you can waterproof later), as far as possible have all pumps of the Jabsco quick connect type (I am designing some slide together fittings for my machinist in Australia to produce so that I can upgrade every other liquid connection including in the engine bay), look into converting to a water chest raw water plumbing system (one below water sea cock with a good quality SS or bronze filter box and distribution manifold), I found a rotary pop rivet tool ... haven’t used it but my neighbour needed a tool after breaking his riveter.. lent him mine ...best tool ever he said ... look them up. I’m looking forward to learning what your choices are as you go.
Love the videos guys. I also sail the south coast from Portsmouth Harbour and have a Viz. He's only been on the boat a couple of times for day sails, so we're taking baby steps - any tips on how to get him to go to the loo on the boat (preferably where you want him to...!).? Thanks,
I'm not sure we've totally cracked toilet time 😂 We give him some medicine that helps fight bladder infections, as he holds it in for so long, and we also give him some medicine that relaxes him (all natural stuff so I'm not sure how effective it is) then we have his patch of artificial grass that I helped scent 😂
Aye m8’s, I just love you guys. I’m into a hard working period right now but I have to prio your vids, just because they way you fill them with joy. Thnx for all your efforts making them 🙏🏽
I'm glad you enjoy the unfolding of our humble little adventure, and as for the videos, we love documenting the journey, and just happy that others enjoy it too 😁⛵️🙏🏻
@@CadohaAdventures All is good where I am at. I am living at the lake right now making videos. Staying away from people as much as I can. I am older, and do not want this COVID thing.
Would you like to know our budget, or what we spent? 😂 Let's just say that we got very little change out of 10k when all was said and one 😳😳😳 We've made peace with the idea of dying poor 😂🤭
I see you're using butyl tape around the outside of that cover, it's good stuff. Do you think you should have surrounded the inner opening as well? Love your videos, keep them coming.Lots of good tutorials on boats here.
Hey thanks for the feedback. I did actually put some butyl around the base of the chain plate (where it pops out above the deck) and also a tiny bit at the head of each screw. Perhaps I could have shown some of that, although I hesitate to get too 'how to' in my vids when there are so many great tutorials out there. But yes, so far it seems like good stuff, it's been raining hard for several days and everything inside is bone dry for the first time since we've had the boat 😁😁😁
Trim Carly's hair I think the deal was lol. Already following on Instagram now (SV Jazzi Girl) Hoping to get my mast back on in a couple of weeks. They just dont look right with them off. I need mine on so I can build my solar arch. Always something to do ... Glad to see you are all well :)
Ha ha. Oh jeez. Possibly some beard wax? One of our new neighbours in the marina bought me some beard wash and wax last week. Think they're trying to tell me something 😂😲
Regular uploads, Otherwise it’s going to take forever, or don’t bother with my advice. Either way.. good episode. Kind regards Trev, (RUclips Sailing channels) a Facebook group.
You're almost certainly right, and we know that RUclips even (apparently) pushes your vids harder when you have regular as clockwork uploads, but the truth is that we just don't want to make vids for the sake of making them, and instead release something when we think we have something interesting or (hopefully) funny to watch. I know we'll pay a price for that in the long run, but the videos really are just fun for us to make, so it's all good. Hope you're well wherever you are at the moment🙏🏻🤞🏼
Trev Hedges that's cool and I think thats our plan, just let the chips fall where they may whilst we try and go on a bit of an adventure 😬🤞🏼🙏🏻⛵️ Good to have you onboard 🍻
I just love your channel. Good energy. Fast paced. Your videos have a purpose. I like that you don't have a schedule. When you have content you put it out and it's always creative. Great job! You mentioned storing food for the apocalypse; have you seen Emily & Clark's Adventure? They have a lot of different material and one in particular is how they preserve their food in the tropics, ruclips.net/video/5oCizeyK9lM/видео.html. It's about 10 minutes. Take care, Geoff
No I've not come across them but always love checking out other sailors channels (and a decent amount of RV channels these days too) to see what adaptations people have made to their boats and how they live more sustainably. Will be sure to check them out, cheers 😁⛵️
Just the basic wire rigging came to about £2500 before labour costs. Although we've ended up changing so much now that £2500 seems like a pipe dream 😥😰
Really subscribe..... the entire video was about telling people to subscribe the only thing that saved it was Carly making an entry at the end ..... to tell us to subscribe
Awesome video as always! Thanks for the shout out :) I'm replacing the standing rigging in the not too distant future too.

Cleaning off the corrosion allows you see stress fractures that can make the difference in saving your boat or not.
Yes seem to look a lot better now lovely
