    We love your choice of wood. The Head solution was truly remarkable, your so fortunate to have retained such craftsman, she'll look marvelous when completed.

    Simplest solution for the head no matter what configuration you decide upon would be to make it a wet area and fiberglass the whole room.

      Definetly keep it simple, one area. The separation is going to give a lot of problems and create 2 verry tiny spaces.

    Very good episode, except for the sound. Get a wireless mic. I like your methodical approach to design, and agree that you're trying to cram too much into too small of a space. Keep tweaking the design, you'll get it right.

    For years on my PDQ36 , I never used the shower(except for winter). We showered on deck (popup camp shower)

    Really like your process of decent mock-up, we did the same years ago at Viking yachts co (NJ), they still do! They even bring previous owners / customers to check it out.
    Great to see you using the CNC tools.
    Since the head is one of the most important ‘livability’ aspects of a small boat don’t compromise, use more space if you have to it will be worth it.
    FYI have you seen sailing Uma is doing a similar interior rebuild as they have stripped their interior out for structural work and then makeover while they are there!
    Interesting comparisons
    I’m glad you have ‘mobli mar? Help!
    Cheers Warren

    Keep it simple.
    Have as much as possible exposed for ease of service and cleaning, incase of blockages and it overflows.
    Yes hiding things away makes it look good, but the cursing if repairs are needed.
    Maybe build a fibreglass folding cover for head if you want to prevent a lot of water going on it.
    Fibreglass it all.
    Go a composting toilet!

    That would you using looks really nice . You might want to varnish.. each piece before the final install. Do the small pieces as you go. Because trying to Staind varnish. The whole thing might be a pain in the butt. Spill something on the wood before its treated.

    Rather than painting, could you wrap areas? In a couple of years, you could remove the old wrap and wrap new areas. A new look. I have no idea if this would work, I've never used wrap.

    The thin sheets are called door skins. More accurate and stronger than cardboard.

    Sailing Uma is likely jealous of your ability to produce an engineered model the interior prior to to the final fabrication !

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Год назад

      And we are jealous of Uma’s vast experience! We could use their help with fiberglassing our head 😉

    • @greglight3745
      @greglight3745 Год назад

      Yes ! Both will also address how they fare the hulls if that’s something they choose to do. On another project building the new RAN they have had not only VR of their build but Vera showing interest in the shop !

    Love what you're doing with the boat. But my question is? You have that beautiful wood. If I heard you correctly you are painting it white. If I heard incorrectly, please forgive me. Could you please explain? Can't wait to see it done.

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Год назад

      Thanks so much! Good question! So the wood is made of marine grade plywood with a veneer not solid wood. They don’t work with crude wood so we would always be painting on top of a veneer regardless of the color. Later we will pick and choose what will remain the wood finish and what will be painted after we mock up the boat. This can be done in pre planning with a designer on a 3d illustration but we are jumping right in since we are the designers! A little scoop for you as well, once they finish mocking up the wood, they will remove everything to paint, coat and buff it and then install it officially.

    A lovely vblog you have a problem with the height any of taking some of insulation out above and lowering the floor or shower pan lahakai is going to look great

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Год назад

      Thanks! We‘ll see if we can keep the shower pan at a minimum to not lose any headspace. Our next option is reducing Luke by a couple inches 😜

      Make an outside shower for him he will have all the headroom he wants

    You really need access to the hose that pumps urine etc out. You need to be able to remove it, because urine and salt water leads to blockage of the hose. Use a rubber hose and you can use a rubber hammer to hammer the scale out of the hose twice a year.

  • @claudehopper9813
    @claudehopper9813 Год назад

    A Naval architects help coordinating structual , mechanical & electrical aspects of your design maybe a wise move . As the interior gets ready to be installed , accessability will soon become more difficult . Getting systems rough-in before cabinetry is critical .

    what is the labor cost in Brazil?

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Год назад

      There is no straight forward calculation for this unfortunately as labor costs depend on the job, the expertises and your location. Also things like the price of steel fluctuates according to market value influencing work. Top this with the BRL (Brazilian Real) to USD fluctuates as well. But we can give you a rough example... Currently a welder in the US could be $75 an hour. While in Brazil you could pay less than this for a whole day of work from a top level welder in the south.

    I hate those round toilet bowls. The ovals are more comfortable.
