I'm BAAAAAAACK!! Thank you all for watching, click that notification button to be notified when I put out new videos. pt.2 coming SOOOOOON! Much love, be kind to each other. -James
Peace N love. I really want to sail; sooner than later. Your videos are inspirational, We could be buds 100% you and I share a lot of similar skills
How would you suggest going about funding? Money/Funds always have me down and at loss of faith..I have been collecting GoPro/ got a MacBook Pro last year, been practicing editing but still no way to get my first SV
Cool James thanks
Bro when you get to FL I want to come help you work on your boat!!!
I’ll be a patron soon, just getting a few things in-line.
Daaam time flys well deserved 100k and it was a great video can't wait for part 2
Just a tip on cutting line on boat: put a couple of firm wraps of tape around it before you cut - now cut through the tape so core doesn’t fall apart.
Then burn the ends. Rigging 101.
James, check your motor mounts on your generator. That motor seems to be rocking just a little to much.
I also noticed that. It was rocking pretty good when it was starting.
@@stelioshondrocolos1869 Why the hell are you so offended? I never questioned his qualifications and there was certainly no intention of insulting James abilities. I was only observing what I saw. I was wondering if it's normal for a diesel engine to rock that much as it is starting.
If a diesel is struggling for fuel it rocks more than a rocking horse till it gets sufficient fuel...
*Yeah, James needs motor mounts **2:33** too!!! ahaha (Read MaweeBoy post for ref.) **2:41*
Every sailor felt your pain when that halyard came apart . I wire them together with a bit of mechanics wire . I poke it through both lines an inch or two back loop and twist together facing away from the direction it is going then tape them up to be one line so no spot is two lines trying to get through the sheave . Like a link in a chain - the lines do not overlap and the tape makes it a smooth transition with nothing to get hung up.
Won't break, fits the sheave because the line is not doubled up and you can tug on it more than with other ways . When done pull out the wire and put it back in the tool box - everyone should have a bit of mechanics wire in the tool box .
The view of your Oyster from atop the mast was awesome! What a killer, kick ass boat you have!
u rock! i lived that life for 30 years. beautiful. and did almost no video or photos. duh. sooo great to go there vicariously through u 😎 THANKS JAMES🏄♂️🏄♀️❤️🤙🌞👙👗🩴🕶🦆🐋🐆🦒🍄🍀🌈🚣♀️⛴🔱🇿🇦🇯🇲🇧🇸🏴☠️🏁🇺🇸
Whoa whoa whoa. I don’t want to be the guy to say “WTF man”...but WTF MAN! We’ve been a little worried here on the tubes. I’m glad to see you again James!
Yeah I get it. I lost my computer mano, it's impossible to get it fixed here
Congrats on the 100K James
Get that favorite knife to a whetstone quick.
Dull knives give the worst cuts.
Dyneema (Spectra, etc.) is best cut using a ceramic blade. Steel blades get dull very quickly on those materials
Doing wonderful things cant wait for part 2!!
Glad to see you're back James.....
At the end of the video when you thought you had it threaded through and the splice obviously gave way.
That look of you staring up at the mast says it all.
"S#*t".
We've all been there many times....
It is great to see you doing well. Love this new adventure.
Keep Doing What Your Doing ... Because What Your Doing Is Amazing !! ...
Knife sharpening and stropping definitely in order. Congrats on all the progress.
Love the quality of the audio and soundtrack is epic! Still watching and liking since your first video, keep it up Brotha! 👍👍👍👍
Finally have waited so long for my favorite sailing youtub. can't wait for the next video. I wish I could be there. have a good day and good weather...
Congrats man. You're hard work is paying off.
I'm very happy to have found your video because the boat in front of yours, on the other side of the pontoon, it's my boat, it's been 1 year and a half since I could come and pick it up, what a joy you have no idea, thank you very much and good luck
We are SOOOOOO GLAD you are back brother!!!!
What a great a blessing. Hope you are enjoying your boat. It looks amazing.
Rock on man congrats
I want to sit here for 1h and 20 mins watching james 😩
Great upload, cheers James, you rock dude.
This may be the only mast and spreader tour on RUclips! Thats why we're here. Maintenance and technical. Thanks!
Well done. Enjoy every video and learning lots.
Good to see you again!!!
Amazing channel. Good vibes
Great stuff mate.
Congratulations on your first 100,000 subscribers, James! You earned it.
Thanks for the update
Thank You... Its that simple.
Good introspective comment inserts here. Class.
Congrats on the silver play button that’s hopefully on it’s way James
Awesome Video as usual
Been jouncing
But Now you’re Back
Can’t wait for the next one
James, I have been following you you for several years now. when I first found your channel I thought you were a bit of a Jerk. But when ever I searched on how to make certain repairs your videos keep coming up. I found myself coming back to your channel. You were always able to get things working in most harshest of conditions and in most cases with what you had available. Your videos have gotten 100% better from the first one I watch. I have become a Fan and look forward to your videos each and every week now. 👍
Ah thanks, Nick, appreciate that. Much love buddy.
James, you always put out great content!
Impressed with your progress. Your rigging looks “ok” but you know that, as long as you sail in good weather only with divert ports the boat will be fine till Florida where the cost of major upgrade will be so much lower. You know this better than most, take your time, wait for weather windows and enjoy the ride
For your lines, a snake works great. It's works with the same idea of a finger puzzle the harder you pull the more it grabs the rope or cable. Something to look into if you like. Great job though. Good to see you back like the work your doing take care be safe..
Thank goodness YOUR back!! It was rough without your vlogs.
Epic fine damn fine product and Congratulations!
Your boat is so awesome looking! Have fun sailing where your dreams take you guys!
Welcome back! I have been wondering where y’all have been! Glad all is well. Congratulations on making it to 100k! Well done!
Fabulous vid to come in and watch with a cold beer after my entire aft cabin frame collapsed and rain pissed in so bad it was up to the shin. Gotta love sailors life. Thanks capt James 🚢 ⛵ ☠
Great video. Sad to see the maintenance ones stop
Greetings from Costa Rica.Congratulations on the refit.Suerte y Saludos.
ya i always sew my splices together when replacing lines and wow furlex thats what i have on my boat always heard internal sails are a pain but we shall see when your out in the open ocean
Good to hear that was all
I have that very knife on my hip right now. I LOVE it. Rillsimple rocks nuts, seriously. Good video, James!
"Wow, it's pink! Is this Dyneema?" Have I taught you nothing Grasshopper?!
It's so hard not to delete these candid moments of stupidity.
Cleaning is part of taking it apart, so putting it together is not so bad.
Great to see you back James. Cheers from Canada were it's cold as f--k.
Admitting we have a problem (I’m in Michigan) is the first step! 🥶
I use a pair of craftsman edge razor cutters to cut line most of the time
Really enjoy the fact you decided to do two videos unlike so many other channels who drag out stuff for months just to have content. Keep doing you bro.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼100K!! Congrats! Take good care!
Very good video. Keep them coming and don’t work too hard.
Gawd looks like fun!
Smokin little shipmate! Great vid
It always comes apart easier. When I was young my uncle had a 76 triumph in about a 100 pieces all around the house and garage. I asked my aunt once about it and she told me it cost a lot to get it tuned up and rebuilt....well that bike has yet to be rebuilt and I asked the question 30 years ago. At least you got those furlers to work in a lot less time.
Cool they still have guilders, I miss their use when in Holland, where many places kept the same price changed to Euro and doubled the prices
I don't know why, but I love the boat project videos.
Finally was wondering what happened to you we should have known you were going to come out with a banger can't wait to see part 2
Nice to see y’all back in action that candy store looks amazing
Actually I think this is the best video I have watched so far !!!!!
bro awesome video, thanks man for sharing all the way to NZ :)
Yeah man I was wondering why you haven’t posted. But glad y’all are ok and getting your boat to par. Congrats on the 100k
Nice to have you back, James. I appreciate the content; love the vibe of the vid and looking forward to the next one. That engine starts like a samba batucada, lol, perhaps new engine mounts when you reach the USA?
Great music~ Yes! Upload Part 2! 👍🌊
Congrats on the 100k. I’ve been watching from the beginning , it been a hell of a ride. A blunt knife is dangerous- get a simple ceramic hone and touch it up daily.
Also more Laura in front of the camera 😍
Loving your channel James! found you through Sailing into freedom .
James youre narating is epic. Good vlogs bro.
I was wondering what happened to you. You have become a weekly staple in my life watching your videos. Glad everything's ok keep up the good work on your boat.
You are in the top 20 Sailing Shows on utube yaaa congrats as always Great Show. Denny from Minnesota
The obsessive compulsive in me wants to take a small can of what ever it is to that beautiful decking and make it glow timber. You really scored well with the boat as parts of it begin to shine. Nice.
Congratulations on 100,000 plus subscribers. 👏👏👏🎊🎊⛵️⛵️🙋♀️
Brilliant Jane’s & Laura. I really enjoyed watching this again . Stay safe , keep laughing . Stuart in Ireland
Congrats 100k 🎈🎉🎊🍾
Well done on the 100k subs James!
Nice boat
Do you think the previous owner watches your channel? See all the work you do to make this boat great again. Haha maybe they will try to buy it back. Good to see a video from you!
I believe the previous owner passed.
Glad you're doing well. Was getting concerned after three weeks and no video. Ya see, we do care!!!!
Well i for one would watch you for 2 hrs. You have great content. So would have no issue
CONGRATS ON 100K
100k astounding!
Glad you are back. I was worried you may have had an accident. Glad to hear it was only computer related downtime!
G'day James, I reckon your rigging needs attention mate. There were several lines that were chaffing and need replacing. The rigging looked to be on its final passage, assuming you're not planning on bluewater, open-ocean cruising with these dodgy lines. Your current lines are roasted. Due you have access to new Dyneema, Spectra, or Vectran lines. Plus, those winches looked spotty as hell. I don't know if you have access to newer winches like Anderson, Harken, Lewmar, or Atal? I watched you clean your furlers ~ it was obvious, the bearings and seats were rusted. Unless dismantled, you don't know the extent of internal damage and corrosion. Good luck getting Zingaro cruising mate. Be safe and enjoy. Cheers from Margaret River, Western OZ 🇦🇺.
The balls in the bearings are made of Delrin (Polyoxymethylene POM) and the housings are cast aluminium, so no rust. James analysed it correctly as being dust, sand, etc. that has accumulated in the bearings over the years.
Congrats for 100K subs, it is well deserved !
It's good to see so much progress in one video, I can't wait for the second part !
Did I notice a little bit of Laura's influence in the graphics and overlays of the video and does this mean she is the new video editor ?
It looked very professional and gives the video a fresh look !
That's hilarious you have the same generator as we had on our crayfishing boat
holy sh*t your videos are up another level on sound /music/editing. I mostly have videos on while working so the audio is 69% of what Im ingesting, the other is your sail knowledge and your first mate.
100k subscribers! Yay!
Cheers from the Oregon Coast.
Absolutely your best video, including the ones with Kin. Congratulations, if it were me I would have walked away after seeing the boat for the first time, even though I had paid good money for it !!!
Cool man ur by my sisters.. well she lives in Aruba. Wow , wish I could visit y'all happy for ya man.... So happy for you!!!
very nice vid, the votes are in and the old James is back.
Congrats and carb cleaner.
Congrats on the 100k subs!
Glad to see you back. I was concerned you had fallen overboard. Haha Hope you can get on a schedule to get back to FLA. I know how much easier it will be to get work done.
Love the Sailboat Story T-Shirt
I love them. Such awesome people.
Fantastic ending with the halyard.😂
Missed you buddy!
Nice. ♥️👍
