Audio issue update! If you're having issues with the audio please try this version of the video instead ruclips.net/video/ZgD-qsrx2ow/видео.html
Yes! that version fixed the issue!
I'm so sorry about the audio issue! I'm rendering a new video based off of a 1080p download from youtube because my laptop died and I have lost the original file. The new version should be ready in about 2 hours. The new version fixes the audio issue I've been able to replicate but I don't know if there are other issues lurking 😬
I must say I didn't notice, but there again I always watch your videos when I'm eating my supper. Over the years it has become a bit of a ritual.
The audio level was low and thin, so I had to turn it way up, however, when the ads hit it was pretty jarring.
Hi Mads , I watched this video on a windows 10 laptopn, no sound except the into and outro but with an i phone I get evrything so just synced the two together .
That deerfoot 61 is something else. I just hope he finishes it and enjoys it before he gets too old!
Some are builders and others sailors
Agree. I love the details and the craftsmanship but it really delays ever going sailing. I know from experience taking four years refitting my own 36 footer. Now I got her back in the water and relearning how to sail again. Sailing is a seperate skill and an art to be apprciated, especially trying to eke power from very light wind. It's challenging I rather be a better sailor, able to get the most from any sailboat, than become a furniture carpenter. At the same time, I totally respect these builders.
Yes, me too. I´m working now 2 years on our 30ft pocketcatamaran and hope to get it next year into the water to proceed to greece.@@chuckscheaffer3952
He is enjoyed it big time 👍
Likely will never see water in his lifetime but the project I’m guessing is the passion
What a wonderful example of a man who loves his work! That should end up in a museum someday!! After he has had the pleasure of sailing her for many a miles.
“Dearfoot Tim” is absolutely incredible! What great details and fantastic craftsmanship. Too bad he doesn’t have a channel so we could watch this amazing project. Thank you Tim for letting Mads film it and show your work to the world.
LEAD LEGO BLOCKS , and like the idea of recycling them . a VERY NICE PROJECT . Well done to all , another interesting video .🤔❤👍👍
Wow! What an amazing vessel. Tim must be extremely proud of how far he has progressed with his meticulous workmanship. Incredible.
Spiffy overload for you Mads. Tims a true genius and expert craftsman.
Really fun to observe our DYI guru be just overwhelmed with Tim’s design and meticulous craftsmanship. Great visit to record for us! Thanks.
Holy moly. Giving the word overengineered a new meaning. 🙂
Like others here, I really hope he actually finishes it one day. :-)
Tim has done the work of a true craftsman, I am wow'd by what you showed up !!!
Tim's engineering is Awesome. Mads mind is grinding.
So well done!! I wish we had a house like his here in France to finish the building of our future boat. See youuuuu!!
WOW! Fantastic! Great to see.
(Sound was fine for me)
Tim takes DIY to a new level!!
As a viewer I must admit I enjoyed the building process more. I hope you refit another boat.
That's the plan :) I would really like to get back to that too :)
Agreed that the deerfoot 61 is top tier planning,construction and execution.Will help no end with any issues.It looks fantastic in bare bones,can't imagine end result.Hope he gets a few years of enjoyment with it....don't waste chance when feel well!
Wow!! The attention to detail is amazing.
I doff my hat to Tim
such a talented guy
Wow that's a level of spiffiness we all can hope to reach some day 😮❤😮
WOW !!! You can tell he is an engineer.... what a fabulous refit!! Well beyond most of us want-to-be yacht designers!1 LOVED IT!
What can one say about Tim's beautiful project.What a brilliant beautiful boat and such skill Tim has just absolutely beautiful.👍
I’m back after a year or so. You are an inspiration. Love the detailed work and explanations.
I thought you were good, but this guys workmanship is really amazing. However I still think your workmanship is brilliant and I’m sure having seen Tim’s boat your next project will be on another level.
Love to see a clip or two of Ava touring Buda and Pescht.
I aways loved the Deer Foot boats.
What a beautiful boat in the making! Just stunning what Tim is doing there. He is creating magic. Sound was fine for me!
This is the boat you need to buy and finish!
You should come have a look at my refit project next time you get back to Denmark. I'm refitting a 70 year old german steel racing yacht with a lot of soul and history. Even if steel boats aren't your cup of tea you should come anyway, the island of Ærø has a LOT of maritime history and is beautiful at any time of the year 🙂
Hello from Ontario Canada, imagine my surprise when I heard that the Keel was built by Kanter, which is located in St Thomas, less than 20 Km away from my house!
Simply beautiful workmanship. Love it Guys.
1:30 - not nuts. I found your channel the week you brought Athena home (puking and all). I loved the WHOLE journey and while you guys are nailing the sailing/blog content I thoroughly enjoy the retrofit. A big 50-60 foot beast would give you (and me) tons of content for years to come.
We NEED to see the end result of that exquisite beast! Great video!
Holly cow Tim!!! Well done Well Well Well Done!!!
Wow! Just Wow. Talk about attention to detail. I hope he gets years of enjoyment out of sailing her.
Wow what craftsmanship!
So inspiring to see an artist in motion!
Thanks, look forward to coming adventures :)
Incredible. Tim is an absolute artist.
This was a fascinating video Tim's project has " raised the bar " for sure ! A master craftsman with an attention to detail seldom seen !
Wow, Tim really makes some nice stuff. You can definitely see the attention to detail. Really nicely designed. I would LOVE to see the finished product someday!
That is some beautiful work being done by Tim. I sometimes wonder if Mads sails so he has a reason to rebuild boats where most people rebuild a boat so they can go sailing. Either way, thank you Mads and Ava for brining us along on your adventure.
Great
Work mate, that bloke is doing an amazing job
This refit is totally amazing!! Massive brain power demonstrated!!!
WOW! Fantastic work!
Man what craftsmanship his work is second to yours love your videos and love his boat as well
Mads thanks so much for this Video Tim’s Sailboat is a true Work of Art. Mads and Wife please have a Safe Trip in your travels.
What a great refit/build! I can see Mads chomping at the bit to get back " to somewhat extensive refit".
What a great job.
Congratulations Tim!
I know you've posted a separate comment regarding the variable audio on some recent videos. To me it sounds like some audio is being recorded/transcoded as 'spatial' - I use a Bose Soundlink Mini as the external speaker for my Mac Studio and the soundstage changes, extremely noticeably, from normal to super-wide/spatial a few times.
Tim's quality of work is seriously impressive !
Exquisite refit, amazing quality
Absolutely amazing work! Thank you so much for sharing it.
Absolutely amazing work product.
beautifull work ! i'm truly impressed , congrats !
Tim is AMAZING! Meticulous, innovative work! Bravo, sir!
I hope this video dosen't have the audio issue that have been plaguing us the last couple of weeks! Unfortunatly my MacBook with the raw footage died (liquid damage 😭). I only have the file I had already exported to RUclips meaning I can't really do much to fix any issue. The good news is in next week's video I'll be back in Trinidad and will be able to dive into the audio issue.
I can't hear anything, I try to help with trouble shooting, the issues seem due to the new microphone system you are using, in the old video the issues were only in the video with Eva, i think it's mixing the audio channels in some strange way, maybe is trying to mix them as dolby in 5 channel... i do not know exactly, but the problems starts at 1:09
Last week on Eva's audio our right channel cut out entirely for most of it if I remember right. That's the speaker right over "my" settee so I really notice it.
It has. I can't hear you after the intro
here we go again will have to learn to read lips
Couldn't you have done voiceover?
Wow! Very nice work. amazing attention to detail. Thanks for sharing!
What a treat! You two keep good company.
Wow, that was amazing.
Thanks for sharing... extraordinary build and engineering. I see a big project in the future for you two!
Would love to see updates to this construction progress. Unbelievably pleasing to watch!
Hopefully , Mads will be able to take us back to see the finished product ( in two years ? ) .
I have always been impressed with the Dashews work. The Deerfoot and Sundeer were great boats. Beowulf was something else entirely.
That is a project that will keep you busy for a decade or more.
Holly Cow!!! Tim, your Deerfoot 61 is fantastic. Real craftsmanship. I don't have a boat or sail, but it seams very well thought out. With the little details. To bad you don't have a YT channel. I would love to see the progress of your build. I hope Mads and Ava take some ideas if they decide to do another refit. Thank you for letting Mads show your work.
Stunning work TIm. cheers
Looks like its going to be a beautiful boat thanks for sharing 2x👍
Looking forward to seeing you two doing another refit. Those also take on a life of their own and can be unpredictable. If you make it to Washington state we would love to show you our current refit project we are currently working on. Your refit videos are so informative.
This was really cool! ❤😊
Amazing work and boat.
AWESOME WORKSHOP AND BOAT !
Water line gives this boat hall speed ,and going to weather , is a giant , great formula 🤜🤛
A light in the seachest! Amazing.
Just Wow! Amazing attention to detail and incredible ideas - you missed a trick though Mads, lots of sanding opportunities... 😉
wow. really amazing job that.
Wow - amazing craftmenship
Wow, I want that boat when it's finished!
That’s really cool
As someone who has always been about "attention to detail", this is an amazing piece of work. Him being an engineer explains a lot of it. I guess my only concern is that much detail requires LOTS of hours to accomplish. How many more years is this going to take approximately? Thanks for sharing... amazing & I have great appreciation for the dedication & skill set of Tim. I could see your head spinning with ideas & inspiration to begin another project! Moving forward... LET'S GO!
Well said! I guess this is a question of goals - if the goal is building this boat in the highest possible standard, maybe it doesn't matter how long it takes. If the goal was to be on the ocean as soon as possible, it would be a different story...
@@PitWChannel I have friend like this who are detail fanatics. They have done projects that have taken forever to complete & as soon as they were done they got bored & started another one. They just like having a project as it gives them something to talk about & always have something to do. The end product is almost a let down.
That for sure is a nice interesting project Mads and Ava..but for sure it took a lot of time to come so far and for sure a lot more time to finish the boat in the end. When you want start a family I can imagine you want a somewhat bigger boat than Athena..but when only for DIY satifaction I would just keep Athena as your home and buy another smaller/same size DIY project boat for the DIY satisfaction..and sell the boat after finishing to one of your cruising-want Patreons..after starting another project. With new techniques, new elements, new design handy things based on your own and other cruisers experience. Otherwise where does it end? a 120 feet saling cutter aka super yacht😅 You know 38ft has so many benefits too..
Super cool project. The quality of the engineering is nerdy perfect and a joy to behold. Nothing to demo only rebuild. Would love to see you finish such a prestigious and inspiring boat. As a sailboat this thing will be going like the clappers while still roomy enough to be super comfy.
If you plan on marina dwelling then the length will be an expense, but staying out and about that doesn't really matter. Basically the same issue as with a catamaran, but then I'd rather have something really elegant like this.
(Getting tired of all the youtube catamaran builds actually, all that work and at the end you have ...a catamaran, just like everybody else.)
Very impressive workmanship! Look like he enjoys building more than sailing!
I was on this boat when it was new at the Annapolis boat show in 1987.
Great tour of a Deerfoot. We used to cross paths with Stanley Dashew on his 72’ Deerfoot II while sailing Lasers in Marina del Rey years ago. He was in his 90s but sailed all the time. Beowulf was also based here in MdR and I’d always admired how purposeful it looked. Tim is doing a great job on his personal version of a Deerfoot. Maine is full of hidden treasures like that.
great video!
We’ll be looking out for Athena Downeast next summer!
You can see all the nice engineering work he’s put into it I hope he gets to get it in the water soon and start sailing
Soon? You mean ten years?
nice field trip
thx
Just WOW Mads .
I can't believe you did it again
Bummer about the audio. Curious about the hatch near the end of the video. Maybe you can add a voice over and repost?
Tim is just as awesome as Mads!!
Works great on Chrome Cast
17:36, That is the mother of all Thru Hulls what a truly excellent idea. I only hope that they get many years of enjoyment from her once she is completed…
Tim, you are a master, a craftsman and a truly creative mind. Thank you for sharing your art with us…. Now start your own RUclips channel i beg you…
I will be your follower if you decide to finish the project , 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Great project and superb craftmanship. However, for cruising I'd prefer deck housed boats like Duracell or Ran II: I like to live ON the water, not BELOW.
Tim is a great designer and builder. It would be a neat video in the future if the crews from SV Athena and SV Basik visited
him and exchanged thoughts at a round table.
Good video episode as usual, I miss the subtitles, would be good for us who don't speak English well. Thanks!
Wow!
Hey guys are you going to let’s us know your scheduled through the Caribbean, hope you guys stop at Puerto Rico their is alot to do in the island, also stop at culebra island before they have the best beaches in Puerto Rico, culebrita water is cristal clear, cant wait to see your videos coming up to the states hope you have a great trip!!!
do it, Do It, DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!
Such an awesome boat and so perfectly done. If he's not going to finish it himself, then who better to take over? It would be such an epic, somewhat extensive, DIY refit.
