The Battle of the Bilge meets the Incredible Bulkhead.
Something like that.
One bulkhead left!
So close.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Good one. 😂
Great work, good luck!
Marina I bet you never thought that first time Stuart said come with me and sail round the world you never thought you'd be arse up in the smelly old bilge of. a 50 footer don't worry luv one day eh! All good guys cheers n beers Marty Australia
It's all part of the trip.
Who would have thought we'd be here.
It's fun...

The holding tank needs to be high enough to gravity drain. If no direct outlet to sea from toilet (ie via a diverter) make sure it's easy to poke something into the tank right down to the seacock. The holding tank will block at some point. Everyone says it won't because they'll be careful - but it will.
Consider putting a valve in the breather hose - so that if the holding tank outlet is blocked you can pump air into it from the toilet to pressurise and unblock (unless something explodes first!).
Great tip.
You know it's going to get blocked. It's just a matter of time.
Hopefully there's enough space to slide it out.
Plus the exit of the tank is directly above the seacock.
We'll give it go as we have most of the pieces and take it from there.

Best boat restoration on RUclips, does not get more "organic" more original, authentic than this channel. Well done guys, keep it up.
Wow, thanks!
Step by step.
Cheers for watching 🙂
its good but no.
Hahaha righty tighty lefty Loosey. Is definitely the only way to remember that.
It's a classic.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Your rollers and paint trays will arrive Thursday! Have a great week!
Thank you so much.
Perfect timing 🤩
We'll put those to good use.
Cheers for watching 🙂
I think Marina could do with pampering like a spa or massage , her poor back working in small places. Good progress guys.
Working in the bilge is not a comfortable job, but soon, it could all be over.
Onto another uncomfortable job.
🤣🤣🤣
Cheers for watching 🙂
Have to say your, whole, package...commitment, reluctance to cut corners, work rate...are nothing but inspiring! I wish you continued good luck!!
I think you're making a good decision in eliminating the toilet in the head near your bedroom.. you don't want to be sleeping with those smells.. leave it a shower and wet room.. leave the toilet in the head in the front of the boat and not have a shower there.. less maintenance and simple is always better
Stu Marina looks like she pretty handy with that hammer. You keep in line or smack. Lol
Luckily you don't see what goes on off camera...
🤣🤣🤣
Cheers for watching 🙂
The bilde looks much better. Nearly there. And for us to remember:
Longer we work the sooner it’s over.😊
That's it. Got to put the hours in.
Step by step things are taking shape.
Cheers for watching 🙂
I tell you what you’re both very good on the quiet, bilge is looking good.
The more you do it, the luckier you get.
Plus you can just cover it in paint.
🤣
Thank you.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Probably don't want to add any length to tank vent, as maximum venting will speed decomposition and less stink.
That's proper team work. Great progess as usual well done you two !
Glad you enjoyed it.
Painting is always fun.
Still loads more to do.
Cheers for watching 🙂
nicest smelling bilge in the yard no doubt, congrats and enjoy the equinox guys
Hopefully, it stays that way.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Step by step !!! Great ! One year ! Come One . 😜 kisses from Belgium !
Thanks Eric.
We just have to keep chipping away at it.
Cheers for watching 🙂
What a great intro - makes us appreciate just how far you’ve come! Nice work M&S!
Thanks so much!
Even we didn't realise how messy it was.
Slowly it's starting to take shape.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Hello again you two. Wow, great intro at the beginning. You've come a long way since you got that boat! Still a lot of damaged woodwork replacing to do, but it will look great when you get it done. Every week is a new adventure. Ok, take good care and enjoy. Looking forward to next week. Ciao, geo
I can't wait to see you floating somewhere!
Much has already been done over the last year. Congratulations!
Hi Marina & Stu!! Just stopped by to say "Hola!"
Looking better every week!!
💥🛥💥
Thanks so much.
Glad you enjoy our progress.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Wow! Your bilge looks great. I think I'm feeling a bit of bilge envy.
Take the teak surround off the mirror and get a new mirror and flat mount it
looking good 😎💚💙👍👍🍺🍺🍻
Thanks 👍
Y'all should be very proud of how far you've come in this restoration, it's very impressive and we all look forward to your next video, keep up the good work, it will pay off
We will!
Thank you for the encouragement.
Cheers for watching 🙂
It is looking great. The end results is going to be just amazing. Keep up the great work. I know it seems like a handful right now.
I had forgotten some of the beginning and it was really cool to look back and see where you started and how far you have come with SeaBird. Fantastic job you both are doing. Ciao
My only misgiving about removing a second head, when you are lucky enough to be able to have one, is that one on either side of the boat means one toilet will always be available regardless of which tack you are on. But you're young, haven't had 7 children and therefore don't need to empty an ever overflowing bladder every five minutes.
Very true.
But both toilets were on the same side.
Cheers for watching 🙂
@@SailingSeabird I did wonder that but wasnt sure! Use the space for storage or something instead.
You guys have come so far. I can hardly wait till you put her in the water
She's looking good.
Thanks.
Hope you've had a good week.
All these loose ends might come together, might...
Cheers for watching 🙂
The work is really coming along. 🤗💖🤗⛵
Thank you.
Once the last ribs are done, hopefully, we can turn up the gas.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Hard work! Stressful! It's going to be so worth it!!!! Cracking job A!! Love from Michigan USA
Tack!
You’ve got to have a big heart to take on a job like this and keeping going in the early days is not easy but here you are a year on, fantastic, well done!
Thank you.
At times, it seems huge, but just take each day as it comes.
It will end at some point, and we might as well enjoy it until then.
Cheers for watching 🙂
It’s all starting to come together, you can really see the progress.
Thank you.
Glad you enjoy.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Looking better each week 👍🏻
Keep on going, it will be a very nice boat.
Thanks, will do!
A long way to go.
Cheers for watching 🙂
AH! At last moment some positive news on the brink of weekend, after a overall dreary and depressing day.
You guys have come a long way already. Great job! 👍
Pity indeed, covering it up now it looks so good after so much work. 🤷
Sorry to hear you had a bad day.
We are glad you enjoyed this week's adventure.
Have a good weekend.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Yous look tanned and happy.
I'm just working on my red neck, the classic farmers tan.
The summer is a bit of a no-show.
But it makes for good epoxy weather.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Funny a bit of paint makes things look a lot better better. The bilge nearly there.
If in doubt, cover it in paint 🤣
It's taking a while to get to this point.
Cheers for watching 🙂
The intro really showed how far you have come! Well done! :-) Painting the bilge made such a huge difference too! Richard (UK)
Thank you very much!
It was a bit of a mess at the start.
Now it's starting to clean up.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Week ritual : helping google to be nice with Stu and Marina. Up up little algorithm
We are very grateful.
Cheers for watching 🙂
You are very brave to start such a grandiose project, and well done for the fact that your arms have grown from your shoulders. GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!!!
Thank you so much!
It's a pretty big job, but it's fun.
Cheers for watching 🙂
A good idea I have seen for tank vents is to run them into stanchion bases with holes in the stanchions. A friend's boat had that. The only negative was once when they didn't realize the tank was full, flushing turned the stanchion into a sort of poo sprinkler head.
That bilge looks beauteous guys! All ready to receive clear blue water 🤣🤣 But seriously guys you have come a long way! Great watching it transform.
Really shaping up nicely! Before you know it y’all will be able to have a working head👍
Hope so!
At least in theory.
We'll have to wait until we are in the water to test.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Great work Team Seabird. Seems like you have achievef a lot since those early days. Keep going ❤❤❤
I just realized that Marina is left-handed. How did I not see that before? I have been following for at least two years. You are both doing a really good job of bringing this boat back to life, and doing it properly. She will be a safe, secure, and comfortable home for you for many years to come.
Here's hoping.
We are still a very long way off.
Cheers for watching 🙂
⛵️ ⛵️ ⛵️ Phil...
Hiya Phil.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Its summer maybe try a lite jacket instead of all those coats...🤣😁 cheers keep up the hard work.
Thank you.
Great tip.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Great video as always
Great progress this week! keep it up! :)
Get yer crocs on mate. "Crocs on means business" one of your best lines from a while back.
I'm being sensible atm just wearing shoes.
I tried the other day with flip flops, not good.
Plus I've been thinking about a new pair...
Cheers for watching 🙂
So nice to see you two just making your future.
Thanks so much!
Glad you enjoy.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Great work, love your show
We are so proud of the work you’ve done on Seabird, but also on the very hard work you’ve put on growing your channel. LOVE you folks! 😎❤️😎❤️😎🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much!
Hope its all going well on your boat.
We are so close to having a floor!
Soon...
Thank you for all your support.
Cheers for watching 😍
@@SailingSeabird❤❤❤❤❤🎉
Lots and lots of work this year. Cleaning, fumes. itchy fiberglass, sanding, welding and so much more.
You got that right!
But it's fun.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Fantastic progress, you two! You make my weekend every time!
Great to hear!
Glad you enjoy.
Hope you've had a good week.
Slowly, all the pieces go back together.
Cheers for watching 🙂
With the intro we can see the immense work accomplished. Marina and Stuart, you are a wonderful team. It is a great pleasure to subscribe to help you make this wonderful project. Very beautifull work this week!!!!😀
Thank you so much!
It was a little mucky when we started.
Let's hope it stays this way.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Enjoyed this. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it.
Cheers for watching 🙂
I think you found a very good place for that tank.Your boat is really big so you find always options. The vent should be straight up i think. Keep it simple Stu!
Very true.
Always keep it simple.
Plus, there is already a vent in place.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Buen trabajo chicos!
Ya va teniendo mucha mejor pintaaaa!
Es genial ver un barco volver a la vida como vosotros lo estáis haciendo!
Consiguiendo granito a granito como las hormiguitas! Y aprovechando toda oportunidad!
No a golpe de money, money, moneyyy!!!
Ánimo q vais genial!
Saludos Marina & Stu!
Bilge is looking great! Your Plywood is supposed to arrive Tuesday!
You guys are SO awesome!!!! Living my dream. Hold fast sailors
Thank you for the encouragement.
Cheers for watching 🙂
WOW! Looks GREAT!
Thanks.
Slowly slowly 🐌
Cheers for watching 🙂
When you are working on the inside of the hull it looks like one of those old time 'coal effect' electric fires that I member from my youth. Nice to see it all gong so well!
Good things are happening!
It’s still hard work. Even so hard watching hing you two work feels like work (😊) . Off course. You two are really motivated to realise your dream. Keep it up !
I've watched from the start and enjoyed every vlog and seeing the progress. Well done so far, the finish line isn't far now. Most people would have given up but you both stuck with it. This shows strength and commitment. ❤
Thanks for that!
We just want to go on adventures.
Seabird is an adventure in itself.
Soon enough, we'll be back sailing and all of this will just be a memory.
Cheers for watching 🙂
You can always drop a dry or camping flush loo into the shower room if you have the need later.
Rigid ABS pipe with chemicaly welded joints never lets any stink out.. or leaks.. if youve got a waybto fit it... You can bend it to a curve.
We did have similar thoughts.
We'll see how we get on first.
If needed, those camping toilets are readily available.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Excellent thanks 🎉🎉🎉
Generally keeping tanks as low and centered as possible is best for sailing.
The main fuel and water tanks are below the waterline.
25l of waste shouldn't affect the sailing too much.
Cheers for watching 🙂
You guys are amazing. There is no project that want jump in and tackle it. Your dedication and hard work is appreciated by many of your followers. Keep up the good work. Cheers from Austin, TX
Que cambio está dando eh!!!
❤ Wow what an awesome team! I'm refitting my first and it's so much slower alone... Inspiring to watch others transforming old to new 🎉 👍👍👍
Great progress. 🎉
Thank you! 😊
Cheers for watching 🙂
Wow you guys have done an amazing job on that boat!! I quit watching awhile back and it s looking beautiful!!! Well done!!!!
Thanks so much!
We are glad you're back and enjoying the videos.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Your video title says it all. We can all, “see the light”👍Crack on you guys!
Thanks.
Slowly, it starts to take shape.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Looks great!
Thanks!
Cheers for watching 🙂
The bilge looks fantastic painted. Well done!
Thank you.
A few more coats, and we'll call it done.
Cheers for watching 🙂
awesome progress!
Thanks!
Cheers for watching 🙂
Hi, my experience with the inline black water tank is very good: Easy handling and no bad odours, at least on the boat we chartered this May. We used it for 2 weeks. 2 factors are important: size and location. size: 25 liters volume seem very little to me, I would double that amount. location: as high above the waterline as possible. The location you chose may be too low in order to empty well ba itself. The outgoing hose needs to attach from below (that's "inline") in the deepest spot. There are conical upright tanks available that adapt to the form of the hull.
I've seen a few different shaped tanks.
We have this, so before we go and buy another, give this one a go and see if it works.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Hi guys. I'm looking forward to how the toilet is all installed. (It's on my to do list on our boat). The bilge paint looks awesome. Keep up the good work.
Ps. Your doing floorless job🤔haha. 👍
SV Kiwi Lady Opua Bay of islands New Zealand 👍🏿
We are also excited about the toilet installation.
Soon...
Cheers for watching 🙂
Good work! ❤❤
Thank you! 😄
Cheers for watching 🙂
You guys should rename her “the love boat” with how much screwing going on in there 😂
That's a good one!
We always look forward to your weekly innuendo.
Cheers for watching 🙂
@@SailingSeabird I thought I’d leave the obvious one about the firm shaft alone, that was to easy lol.
Well done both of you, as usual you keep plodding on making super content 😊
Thank you! Will do!
Cheers for watching 🙂
Friend has 2 waste tank as you suggest. One I back of hulls in catamaran but remember tank must be above the waterline!( so it empties). Some of the French catamarans have tall ones behinds cupboards and that can drain outside when required !
A simple system .
I have seen that type.
The tank is near as high as the sink...
I first wanted to see if it fits in the gap.
Now I'll look into the technical stuff.
Cheers for watching 🙂
One huge step forward. No the real refining from the cabin starts. The preparation is always the hardest. Good to see all the progress. 🎉
Love watching you two just get on with it. It might not all work in then first instance but you fix as you go and its looking AMAZING.
Thanks 👍
Can't always get it right first time.
Cheers for watching 🙂

Really enjoying seeing you guys, We look forward to seeing you every week. ❤xx
Can't understand why you haven't got more subscribers. Its absolutely riveting watching you.
Hit the like button and comment that will show you tube there is a lot of people watching
I always push the like button. I assumed that figure was showing people viewing, not subscribing.
👍
The bilge is looking 👌, I can only imagine how wonderful the rest of Seabird will be after you 2 work your magic on her.. people with money can buy nice things, the rest of us have to take what others have overlooked and put our hard work into it making it nicer than the one that's bought with money.. Seabird has improved greatly and so has the quality of content coming from Stewart and Marina... you 2 automatically get a 👍 as soon as I click on the video..
Amazingly well done! You guys are an incredible couple and inspiration for listening to motivation and discipline!
Dear Marina. Clothes in the workshop blow, they don't vacuum. Cleans much more. Buy a blower. You'll love it on your "veleiro em obra"😘
She’s looking better every show!keep up the good work. You should be proud of yourselves.
Thank you for the encouragement.
Cheers for watching 🙂
Still hard at it! Looking good.
Still enjoying the process.
It's fun.
Cheers for watching 🙂
More solid progress. ❤
Thanks Robin.
Step by step.
The weather is good today so more painting.
Cheers for watching 🙂
I enjoy watching your rebuild. I have been using an in line holding tank installation for about 30 years with good luck. Suggest locating the bottom of tank above your boat's waterline and plumb discharge line below bottom of tank so that it will empty completely. I use a pvc valve ahead of the thru hull valve so that you can do maintenance on the thru hull valve without having to clean the tank.
Great tip on the extra value.
It might be a bit of a squeeze.
We'll look into it.
It's sort of fits.
Now the next step.
Cheers for watching 🙂
