You should run a competition for subscribers with the prize being an opportunity to meet you and also pull off some peel ply 😁 It looks so therapeutic, just like popping bubble wrap. I hope that you & your family have a great Christmas and a happy & healthy New Year.
It's beginning to look a lot like..... a 14 foot ocean capable small sailboat! So impressive, all the work that you've done so far. Happy holidays! Hello from The Netherlands, Marco Batenburg
I am so happy to see that even the great Swen Yrvind is following your progress - whom I am also following along with Yann Quenet's Baluchon 2. (Do you know the latter?) Anyway, congrats on your project and I can't hardly wait to see your nice boat on the water. Best wishes from Brazil, Captain Perry.
I'm not new, I've been following you since the beginning. I can't wait to see when you turn the ocss over to lay the fiber. and also install the mast purchased at the beginning.
Thank you! Coming pretty soon. I finally finished the giant roll of 1708 I bought at the beginning of the project and just ordered a little more for the bottom last night.
When you turn that deck panel over it may bend back against the curve due to its own weight. Fibreglassing the other side may therefore lock in the incorrect shape. Good luck, I look forward to seeing the outcome. Hope it goes well.
Yes I have to support it a bit to keep the curve while fiberglassing the bottom. I'm actually thinking to change my tactic for the starboard panel, but I'll show that in a future video.
Maybe fiberglass the underside and let it cure in the final position could be an option. Later you can flip the boat and make fillets, reinforcements, etc...
So good to see the progress on this boat. Really clever how big those deck panels are, must be so satisfying to see the final shape after all this work. Can’t wait for the next video!
Looking very close to an enclosed cabin! What is the planned construction for the end of boat arch/bench/buoyancy float? I am not sure I would depend on unbraced foam core for those righting loads.
Unbraced foam? How dare you sir, I wouldn't say there's any unbraced foam on the boat. 😂 Well I'm still planning the arch. I think it will be fiberglassed on, integrated onto the sides of the hull with 70x350mm vertical supports.
You altered the design i see from a twin keel and skeg supported rudder to a midkeel and transom rudders. May i ask why? I kinda thought the twin keel/skeg option is pretty versatile and gives the option to beach and clean bottum without cranes etc, it also is more shallow... Is the reason stability or sailing profile? (twin rudder twin keel would be my preferred option btw)
It's still twin keel, and the depth of the keels have never changed. The skeg did get shortened. I don't really believe a long skeg does much to protect the rudder. If a solidly attached skeg hits something really hard, it's only going to tear out the bottom of the hull. Instead I'm going for a rudder that can take a hit and kick back, able to be put back in place later without suffering much or any damage. That's the best I can explain in a brief comment.
Merry Christmas to you and your family Captain. 🎄 Just wondering are you familiar with the "ticking stick" method of fitting odd pieces? If not, you should look it up, I found it very handy in my work as a finish carpenter/cabinet maker.
If you would have learned to draw in 3D & weld and made it out of aluminium you would already be sailing. Just saying. Raw boat welding is approx 4 weeks, finishing touches would be 1 to 2 weeks. Rigging another week or so...Drawing designing depending on skill a few weeks maximum 2 to 3 months.... End result would be a sturdy longevity hull. Butt i guess building like this is fun also...
Very optimistic scheduling! I thought I would build this in only a year, but here we are at over 2 years of building (but I am also balancing this with a full time job.) I'd love for the boat to be built of aluminum, that would be very cool. Sadly I have 0 welding experience.
Hi boss, I saw your channel subscribers enough but your channel video views reach is not perfect. I did research your channel. Your channel has some optimization missing if you optimize your channel and video then your channel will rank on RUclips and your video will go viral, which will increase your channel subscribers and video views.
Lots of boat now when deck is coming on.
Good Christmas.
Thanks, you too!
Merry Christmas Captain Perry,family and all, nice work. All the best regards from here on the West Coast side of Australia 🌏🎄🙏🖖🤟🇦🇺🐨
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Perry!🎄🥂
Merry Christmas, Perry! 👍👍👍
Same to you!
Nice one Captain.
Mery Christmas to you and yours.
So fantastic you are wearing a KANSAS T-shirt...ad astra per aspera!
I lived in KC MO for 2 years for work and loved it.

Hello from The Netherlands,
Marco Batenburg
You’re going to go out in your garage one day and see a scow bow ocean capable in your garage. Just so you know.
Deck to hull joint looks very strong
thanks
No problem
Awesome work! Merry Christmas Perry.
You are making wonderful progress. Merry Christmas to you and family
Thank you! You too!
Merry Christmas to you
and yours
Merry christmas Captain!

Thank you. I follow both of them very closely. My boat is based off Baluchon. Big inspiration.

Wow! Great! Thank you for answering my comment. And merry christmas!
Legal que estamos 🇧🇷 aqui! Yrvind e Cap. Perry são grandes inspirações! Feliz Natal a todos! 😊
@@eschleonardo
Estamos em todas!
When I make it to Brazil please host me in your beautiful country! 😊

Thank you. I figured it's better to get a lot of deck done at once with one long panel, rather than break it up.
Deck to hull with glass and epoxy, fa la la la la la la.
😂
Nice work!
Thank you! Cheers!
Looking really good. I'm always asking myself if I could modify it to make a Northern Arctic passage.
I think about the northwest passage sometimes. I'd want a really good electric motor setup and solar for that, not much wind up there.

Ça avance bien 👍
Merci. Je fais des progrès.

Great build. What foam are you using?
3/8" (10mm) Structural PVC foam. Thanks.
Merry Christmas to you and your family Captain.
🎄 Just wondering are you familiar with the "ticking stick" method of fitting odd pieces? If not, you should look it up, I found it very handy in my work as a finish carpenter/cabinet maker.
Yes, check out OCSS-055 I show how I use the ticking stick method in that one. Thanks for watching!
I thought that you would have used your peel ply remover, also known as your daughter.😅😅😅
Oh, that's true I need to get her back to work!

I admire the course you have chosen and utilized skills available to the average garage builder.
Depending on where you were you'd freeze or boil to death!
