It’s not a Black Friday if you get to spend it with Stu and Marina…. Going out to a Tiki Bar this evening on a chilly night in New Orleans. I’ll lift a toast of some sort of grog to your almost finished sub floor on Seabird. It’s looking great guys! Enjoy your weekend! 🧉🍹😁
Positive energy? Look at yourself Marina, you are DOING it! I mean, Stu is a natural, for him it's easy to just do it. I wish I was like him. But for you, I take my hat off, fighting the negative, finding the positive, and in a few months you'll be sailing. Respect!
Absolutely love you guys and everything you’re doing. It’s so hard to do a extended project like your doing.. Marina your such a gem and real.. really appreciate your take on things.. Stewart…is like a dog with a bone, it’s not in his genome/ DNA to give up. You two are doing it …love your videos!! Thanks Mark
I don't think you know how much inspiration and how much positivity you, Marina, and Stuart as well, give to other people. Please know that you've made a real difference in the way we at least look at the next year and the things we will do for adventure. Being a worrier myself, I know that the way people look at you and the actual feelings inside can be two completely opposite things. So I understand that you may feel things quite different. But just having rewatched the older videos of the two of you on the Wayzgoose Warrior. it is amazing how many things you dared to do and actually did. Like sailing backwards in that marina in England, the locks in the river Rhone, sailing through virtual forests of weed plants. in the canals above the Rhone. Scary, but the two of you did it, and conquered them. Or what I try to remember, when having doubts myself, are the words of Baz Luhrmann 'Do one thing every day, that scares you' (might not have been him for the original quote, but it is from his song that I know of it).
I love watching your videos! You both are inspiring to me. I admire the fact that you keep going even through the struggles. I am here every time you release a new video. Great work!!
when we started this project, I doubted that I would see it sail away { I,m very old]. however, I'm still hanging in there and you're moving right along. We might launch her together yet
The boat is looking amazing I can not believe I have been following from the start you both have come so far with your content creation and your boat repair skills I look forward to following for many years to come or at least as long as you guys are creating content❤
Love seeing your videos when I get up in the afternoon. I work 3rd shift and your wonderful videos are how I start my last day of work for the week.. will be looking forward to seeing you next week.
Nice going this week 😊 Marina staying positive with such an enormous project is difficult for even the most optimistic person. What you have achieved is awesome and you should be chuffed with yourself. Go Team Seabird ❤❤❤
Great work and happy thanksgiving from the US. I think you have much to be thankful for in your Seabird project. I certainly look forward to seeing all that you have invested pay off in sailing videos!😊
when you have a combination of fibre glass that is matt and woven be sure to apply the matt first. this is because roving only makes contact here and there but matt accomodates this by absorbing the rough weave of the woven roving on the hull and the new woven roving. don .
Hello, Another good video showing how close you are now to getting the floor installed. And then the engine bed. You two are making great progress. I can't want to see the next video. Take good care and get you some heat, that will make it lots more comfortable. Ciao. geo
Dr Joe Dispense (and friends esp. Dr Bruce Lipton) can help you find and change all that programming you got growing up ! Seabird is looking good keep going, keep smiling 😊
Seabird is looking better every week. You are doing a great job. Keep going, next year Seabird will be in the water ⛵️ I am following you for several years (the previous boat through the canals in France). Like your videos, watch them every week.
Nice comment from Marina about negative thoughts. I no longer think in terms of 'positve' or 'negative' . Understanding first that all things are a struggle and accepting first that this is simply a fact of life you can then move on. Breaking down all those difficulties, both real and imagined you should concentrate on the single point of difficulty in front of you and work on resolving that one thing. This is of course is precisely what the pair of you have already achieved. The voyage forward is called living and only by confronting the difficult things can you get the best out of it.
From watching other boat refits, I think that it may be easier to 'wet' the thick fiberglass first with epoxy before laying it down, maybe that will make it easier to avoid air bubbles
I think what you're doing is incredible. I wish I had your skills so that I could rip out the horrible steep slopes floor of the toiket/shower on my boat and make jt less steep people could actually stand properly without crashing into the walls when the boot rocks 🙈😖 Also I really want to paint the interior as it's just way too much varnished marine ply for my eyes, but my husband says a firm "nope" on that. What paint would you recommend? I know you used eggshell and then varnished it, but would that stand up to winters in a UK coastal marina, where we only check on the boat once a month to see if we need to run the dehumidifier?
You are indeed getting there ... the acres of Oh glorius sanding .... as Mads would say is the worst part of restoring any boat especially a GRP boats hull.. your over the hill with that one you pair. Once the floors in, you will begin to feel the momentum. 🫶🏻🧙🏼♂️🇬🇧
@ Low temps will be in the 20s F all week and into the weekend. We’ll be at the boat working this coming weekend, with our diesel heater humming along. Might be warm enough for epoxy midday….we’ve made an engine control panel box, which needs installing and we’ll also be trying out my husband’s new invention…a router sled to fair the cockpit sole. Excited! 😆😂😎🥰
Your motoring along now and I'm beginning to get a little bit jealous of your beautiful boat. Can you explain the purpose of peel ply for a none fiberglass novice. 😊
The pealply is used so the surface doesn't need sanding and is ready for another layer of glass or paint, etc. If you dont use it, you'll have to sand the shiny epoxy. I hope this helps. Cheers for watching 🙂
Seabird is going to be the pride of every marina she visits! What a beautiful story she has to tell, from almost meeting her end to the present day with her pride restored to the earliest days of her existence! Now, just a couple of ideas for you to consider; first, to the engine. Are you sure that it is going to be necessary to raise that engine? I only mention it because I used to know about f❤t
Good job as usual ! I can't h understand all but thé vidéo explain verry well. I need meet you next week ! I think you will enjoy to do a vidéo with my boat... Nice to see you again !
Marina & Stu, another remarkable episode. Nice to have the flooring finished and awaiting engine install. Remembering the start of Seabird's refit, you both have certainly showed us the proper way of piecing together. Thank you both for sharing!
Saturday morning 06:00h, weekend 😇 last week, great jobs, again👌 also i can feel the pain about the paint, but like you say, polish wil fix 👍 and this engine (looks good) like everything you do, will be just fine and fit like it was there before, vroom vroom .... you 2 can do it 💨the funn is getting close ⚓ 😷just a little bit more sanding 🤣 have a goood weekend & keep smiling, thanks for the video
Marina, Don't sell your positiveness short. You and Stu have your positiveness in different directions and the combined effort of two positive personalities that shore each other up is what is so interesting to watch and what makes you a good couple for your life. Stu has a positive energy to try hard things--really admirable. You have a positiveness day to day while you are communicating and cheering Stu up and doing incredibly hard work consistently. He wouldn't have any fun without you doing that. i am sure you look at yourself and think about all the times off camera that you don't demonstrate what i just described, but don't do that. We see enough where the camera doesn't lie to know just how much you are vital to your joint efforts. Don't look at weaknesses compared to your partner and declare you are not sufficient. Look at what you bring that he doesn't and realize you are blessed.
Steady progress ! Marina , just realizing that you’re the one holding you back makes all the difference. You’ll always have your fears and doubts but if you build a habit of positive action your mind no longer holds you back. The power of positive action will override and overwhelm the negative thoughts.
Great video unbelievable just how far you have come , and the quality of the content and especially the editing is incredible 😊well done for a very enter year looking forward to seeing that engine in what a milestone that will be keep well both of you 😊
For the engine install. Get stacks of scrap wood, high enough to match the slope of the new engine bearers. Pile it under the hatch and have the pile lined up so that when you crane the engine in, you set it on the pile. Then slide the engine down on to the bearers. You might have to slats of wood on the engine (on the mounts) to act as skis to help it slide, and that could be removed when engine is where it need to be aligned.
Have you ever watched SV DELOS and there travels, in thinking in the next year when you’re closer to finishing your build that you could ask sponsorship with certain companies like solar panels and lithium batteries for sponsorship
Batteries don’t work unless there’s positive and negative, likewise in a relationship work or otherwise requires opposites to work. As all input has value.
For sure, we'll need the telehandler to get the engine on the boat. It's the three foot we need to move the engine into place that worries me. Inch by inch... Cheers for watching 🙂
Have a confession to make. When I first started to follow this project I thought, great here are two clowns having no idea what they’re doing takaing on a mission to restore a boat that should have been scrapped years ago. All using stuff found in trash containers. Let’s follow their road to disaster! Now I see two persons that have grown to the task both as personalities and in craftsmanship. I actually think you’re going to pull this through and I was wrong. Keep on digging and I’m sure Seabird is going to sail the seas one day.
@@SailingSeabird i know -- right? I had my heart in my mouth when you discovered water in the delaminating keel and thought, "It's all over..." But you came up with a crazy solution that worked and a marine surveyor to a give it a nod and on you went...I never thought you could successfully solve that problem and that was the turning point for me. Keep on digging...
Marina, look back on the time you have been with Stu and ask yourself how many times have you doubted and everything has turned out OK. Adopt the attitude of every problem has a solution, he will not let you down.

It’s looking great guys! Enjoy your weekend! 🧉🍹😁
Hey Tommy!! Cheers then 🍻 Is it on the book? We’ve missed your updates. Looking forward to the next and hear what you’ve been up to. 😊
Positive energy? Look at yourself Marina, you are DOING it! I mean, Stu is a natural, for him it's easy to just do it. I wish I was like him. But for you, I take my hat off, fighting the negative, finding the positive, and in a few months you'll be sailing. Respect!
Try cutting top 1/3-1/2 of bristles off the brush when doing resin work. Game changer!
Absolutely love you guys and everything you’re doing.
It’s so hard to do a extended project like your doing.. Marina your such a gem and real.. really appreciate your take on things..
Stewart…is like a dog with a bone, it’s not in his genome/ DNA to give up.
You two are doing it …love your videos!!
Thanks

You're doing a nice job while operating on a shoestring budget. Much respect for what you're doing.
Thank you.
The budget can sometimes be the hard part.
Cheers for watching 🙂

So exciting to see you get the floor in soon! Must be a game changer!
Stew & Marina you are great inspiration for others who dream of what you are brave enough to do. You rock! 🤗💖⛵😁
This is going to be such special boat when it is done, well done guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you.
Slowly but surely ⛵️🐌🤣

🤣🤣🤣
Character building.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Can't wait to see you two walking on the floor in the boat 😊
Seabird is looking better every week. You are doing a great job. Keep going, next year Seabird will be in the water ⛵️
I am following you for several years (the previous boat through the canals in France).
Like your videos, watch them every week.
You both sound like you're in a good place and things are moving forward well.
Can't wait to see you guys out on the water in that beautiful boat. .
I love it when a plan (boat) comes together.

Wonderful, wonderful work...congrats, looking forward to seeing the day arrive for the launch. Best of luck!
Put in a thrust bulkhead and a small cv shaft and you won't have to perfectly align engine. My 1969 mercer sloop came with one. It's great...
Thank you for sharing your hard work and life. I appreciate you both. ❤
I can feel it…those positive vibes are carrying you through. You’re going to make it! (It’s working for us, too!) 😎❤️😎❤️😎🥰🥰🥰🤗🤗🤗😊

Thanks!
Thank you for your kind donation.

Wow you have come so far!
Merci beaucoup 👍⛵😎
It's nice to see you use the refit and sail method 😊
Glad you like it!

" So I thought I'd do a boat refit" .... I burst out laughing and had to explain to my wife as I caught her off guard ....LOL
Love it 🎉

Thank you.
We are glad you enjoy our adventure.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Dziękujemy.
In a house, floor joists should be spaced no more than 600mm apart. I’d imagine the same should apply to a boat if you don’t want a bouncy floor.
Have you ever watched SV DELOS and there travels, in thinking in the next year when you’re closer to finishing your build that you could ask sponsorship with certain companies like solar panels and lithium batteries for sponsorship
Nice one guys 😊
Looking so good
Nicely.
Great progress!
Great progress. Well done!!!
Gran semana!
Great video
Soon be sailing
Hopefully.
We are a long way off.
Cheers for watching 🙂
You two have made some real progress.❤
Thank you.
Having the floor near done makes a huge difference.
Next is that engine...
Cheers for watching 🙂
Carry on !
Thanks
Good job overall
Thank you.
Hopefully she sails well.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Coming on lovely😊
Well done to both of you, you are making progress little by little each week, it is fantastic work already done since the beginning. ⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ Phil...
Good teamwork. You guys keep it up.
Thanks, will do!
Cheers for watching 🙂
Cool beans
You guys +10
I don't want you to change I like you just as you are
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Your are doing the right thing in life. I also want to sail far away from everything.
Batteries don’t work unless there’s positive and negative, likewise in a relationship work or otherwise requires opposites to work. As all input has value.
Can you get the boatyard to help lift the engine into the boat?
For sure, we'll need the telehandler to get the engine on the boat.
It's the three foot we need to move the engine into place that worries me.
Inch by inch...
