Great info and I really liked the check list you showed for a second or two ✌
It interesting Captain Jim talking about the looks of his Grand Banks. I do not like the looks of a fleming from the outside which most people do, but the inside and lay out is beautiful. Remote office made me smile!
Wow amazing guys..breathtaking Jim
And nice cap (your hat) Captain Paul!!
To sum up that boat and the process.....Its Loved!
Thank you 💙🙏🏽
Loved this video. Looking to buy a liveaboard in the near future.
Crazy thing is I figure I have around 4-10 years left of full time working..I have put at least 25 grand in canvas and AC work..definitely needs probably another 100 grand lol..which I will do
Last one later..and Pete is the man!
I restored a 1969 GB 36 all by myself, drove it from Detroit to Florida.....hopefully it survives Milton.....
I'm restoring a 1967 GB 36 myself. Quite the adventure after 20 years of neglect and disuse. Been at it over 2 1/2 years so far.
@timgreen4137 drain and clean out those fuel tanks or you will always have problems....it took me 3 months, I put new cotton and caulk and engines got new starters, water pumps, 125 amp alternators, hoses, raw water pumps,etc once it's in the water do the rest, new gps, toilet, fridge, hot water tank, etc...good luck. krautamerican is my youtube channel I got 2 refit videos etc
So far I have done all of my maintenance and winterization. Has taken me 5 years to feel like I understand that boat but is well worth it. Going to remove the decks this year. Has a soft spot port side rear.
Excellent 💙🙏🏽
Great report
My 3rd year full time and winter is hard. Condensation really is an issue on boats in cold weather. I’ve insulated parts of the hull and that helps.
We own a GB 36 1984 hull 715. Single Lehman 135 like yours. We live in RI. I think I remember you bringing your boat back to this area. Would love to compare notes.
Very nice boat Capt. Jim.
I have a 40 year old sailboat with a custom wood interior. It sits in the Houston sun. I run a dehumidifier, but I don't run the air conditioners, so it's dry but it gets pretty hot inside. Is this a bad idea? Should the AC be run? I really don't want to spend the money to run the AC during those long summer months...
I’m almost a year on BlueMax wow time goes fast
Thanks captain.
Thank you 💙🙏🏽
