The man is an amazing craftsman and boat builder, I like the way they don't let things get them down and just keep moving forward, no matter what kind of dung life throws at them.
Your confidence in your craft will be very strong, she’ll serve you well as a return favor. Bravo
I’ve been watching you for a while now & it just broke my heart when you found all that black mold in the Stern/Galley of your boat. I must say I'm so impressed with both of you! And your skills are first rate! no short cuts!! Just keep thinking that all this hard work someday will be a memory as you sail your (better than) new sail boat/home around the world & you will be able to sleep at night knowing she is built as well as she could be built! Keep up the GREAT job!! Sincerely, Gary. Port Townsend, WA.
When you found the standing water and mold, my heart went out to both of you! Now, the boat is better off because of your find! I'm so sorry for the setback, but now it will be better! God Bless you both! Great video, music, and thank you for bringing us along on not only the good, but the setbacks as well. It's all part of the journey! Even when it stinks!!! Appreciate you both, and I'm always learning something new from both of you! Stay Safe!
Solid stoic reaction!! I’m so glad you found that mess and was able to remove it to create the “blank canvas”. It gives you peace of mind for your voyage, too! Bravo
I love the positive outlook. It's what makes these videos worth seeing. It's ultimately about the people, and why would we watch people that are likeable?
In most sports which I know very little about the team gathers together into a huddle very similar to a giant hug to cheer each other on. I and I'm sure most of your loyal viewers are cheering you on in a similar fashion albeit from a far. ♥
I love Aladino’s comments, they’re so funny and right the point 👍😂
....and in flawless English.

Magic Carpet 2 deserves a new name of her own. Endurance.
Was führt ein Mist… und wieviel zusätzliche, unerwartete Arbeit. Leider auch oft keine Überraschung. „Chapeau“ für Euren Enthusiasmus und Fleiß. Haltet durch, es entsteht etwas absolut Einzigartiges und ein meisterliches Schmuckstück. Grüße vom Bodensee
It is tough to run into setbacks. We have all probably experienced this sort of thing at some point or another. My experience tells me that once you overcome the setback, you are stronger and bigger on the other side of the it. There is always a silver lining, something good that can be held close and added to the long list of what makes life so great and worth while. Love your project. My experience is different, yet the core issues are the same ones we all come against, each in their own flavor. Fair winds and following seas to you! 🙂
You two are doing such an excellent job on your new home. I know that it will be fabulous. You are both such an inspiration. Thank you for all you do.
Chin up! I realy admire aledinos patience with building tents before doing messy jobs. Keeping things as clean as possible and vacuuming over and over again takes so much time but it realy pays off! Plus it is much healthier and its so much easier to concentrate and do thorough work in a clean environment! Very good and professional work!
Ich sollte mir eine scheibe von Dir abschneiden!
I understand the frustrations encountered.. But on the other hand, you found it and repaired it..Just no viewing back anymore.. It's done and the entire interior has been looked at and repaired if required..
Job well done..Keep up the good work..
So true. Much better to have found it and fixed it. Fantastic job as usual. You two rock.
I've recently discovered your channel and have been binge watching I am blown away by your masterful video productions your attention to even the seemingly most mondaine tasks and through it all up ave prevailed
It's become apparent to t that the common denominator in a of this is the two of you I don't think I've ever in my 80 years of life seen such love and caring that you two have for each other and by extension what your able to accomplish kudos
Sorry for the fat thumb typos
You two have such a wonderful, positive, attitude. Keep up the great work. I will follow you to the water!!!
It is the royal stride, two forward, one back.
Keep up the good work, you will get there.
Sorry to see your latest set back ... but now all so clean . You both continue to be a massive inspiration to us on our minor refit... Very kind regards Mike & Jan Waters
Love your story telling and greetings from Pennsylvania, USA. Good to see quality taking the lead
I have taken on another trailer sailer project with similar problems foam and plywood. After 3 days grinding I just felt compelled to send you some encouragement. Enjoying your work tremendously.
I can see why you feel this as a setback, but look at it this way:
When you are done, you have a technically brand new and robust new boat that will serve you for years to come. You will not be surprised in a strange port (or worse: at sea!) by a boat (your home) that is partially falling apart and requiring extensive maintenance. I think it will prove to be a blessing in disguise.
Indeed it will! Not to mention the considerable risks of respiratory infection!
its nice to see how considerate you both are of the rest of the boat yard - good on ya for that
Oh I feel so gutted for you! But you are right just have to put your head down and carry on. Full respect for Dino getting in there with the grinder and I love how supportive you are off each other. Really wonderful to see and makes me think you will see this through and will have a lovely, pretty, seaworthy and durable vessel!!! Love the videos too!!!
Thanks for posting and sharing. Glad to see that the rot was uncovered and addressed successfully.
I watch every week without fail, I have no choice, Aladino glued me to this chair years ago, and the bathroom situation is now not good so please come and release me, I promise I will continue watching.🙃😉😊
Great workmanship. Your channel is a refreshing changing from the dronings of some others.
Never assume the galley area is gonna be alright ...
Congratulations ... you guys pulled trough it. Great job!!
Great music, especially @5:25 - fit so perfectly into the story. The cherry on Top! Thank-you.
Maya, Best Music on any RUclips channel. Both of you are inspirational in your attitudes toward this refit. Find a problem, grind it out, (literally) and move on. You got this!
Hang in there. With any big project there is always setbacks. But now you know that section is good too and you dont have to think about it for a long time. Keep up the good work.
It is good that you discovered the mold and source of the water damage. Magic Carpet II is going to be better than new when you are finished restoring her and I have learned a lot about what goes into building a sailing vessel.
So sorry for the extra work in the galley, but so glad you found it now! You two are amazing! Keep up the good work and soon you will be sailing in the blue water! Can’t wait!
Very a talented pair you are, I hope you long continue your life’s journey together. And what a Chanel to become so engrossed in. Thank you.
Guys. Thank you for another great video in the Project series. I am feeling the pain with you at the moment but am certain that it will soon disappear and the memory will be a wonderful point of discussion when you meet up with other like-minded refit sailors. A big congrats on your perseverance and ability to work as a great team. P. S. I look forward to hearing that you may one day visit us In the “land down-under”. Great sailing here too. 😄 Please stay safe and continue to enjoy your journey. 👍👍
No matter what crops up Aladino and Maya will over come!! The unfailing attention to the smallest detail is a enviable attribute of this awesome boat rebuilding couple. I believe that "Magic Carpet II" will be the best Cape George on the oceans when they are finished.
I really enjoy both your storytelling, and Aladino's helpful instruction. You are my favourite sailing RUclipsrs! We are working on our own project called Turtle Crossing (Hoping to sail the world with our son starting from Lake Ontario), and I've learned a lot from watching your style of videos. I also have a goal to sail the lochs in France someday on our little 32 foot Bayfield. Thank you for the inspiration!
Sorry to hear about the trapped water discovery. Better to find and fix now. Welcome to project spread. That's how boat projects usually go. We have no doubt you two will make it better than new once finished. Hang in there.
So good. I Love your work! I love your impeccable English and your style of telling your story. Cheers to you both!
with the steps forward you have made one step back is not bad and the outcome of what you are doing (Its going to be BEAUTIFUL) you guys are awsome
Been really enjoying watching your progress throughout this project on Magic Carpet II, you guys do absolutely top notch work! She will be a work of art when completed!! Also, just recently realized that a lovely Cape George named Galatea moors right behind our 1988 Sabre 42 in the harbor we have our mooring here in Maine. I snapped a picture of it thinking of you guys today!
Quality craftsmanship, doing it right the first time and like John Ekins said, "Leave no stone unturned." An ounce of prevention is worth a metric ton of cure on the ocean.
Who is John Ekins? I looked online... nothing, and with the phrase used since the oracle at Delphy.
@@jiefflerenard1228 one of the other people who commented.
Well done! Set backs are always unexpected, so pushing through and meeting the unexpected head on...bravo MC crew!
Great work.
My goodness, what a shock, you have my sympathy, great that you have taken that in your stride. Best of everything to you both. Gpx
Cleaning the bottom of the tube is easy if you make a "belt" of sandpaper with the abrasive to the inside and then slide it over the tube and over a hole saw with some duct tape on it on your cordless drill. It's a bit clunky but works well enough to do what you need there. It works best using a right angle drill but will work either way. Keep up the good work and keep your heads up!
A good attitude in times like these give you the best outcome 👌
Love Aladino’s sense of humour. You are both awesome! Wow, what a great job.
Great job on acknowledging how discouraging this was and then getting on with fixing it. It really does look so clean now.
Yes, a set back but the end result will be outstanding, as is all your work.
I guess the rot/water had worked upwards by capillary action from the 'floating engine mounts' as the stain was broad at the bottom and narrower at the top. I for one can't wait to see the progress..!!
Well done you two..!! 🥰
keep up the good work ... this is a super great project, but it is in the hands of two very competend young people ... Your both amazing ! 👍👍👍
Inspirational perseverance! Bravo for the fortitude to keep moving forward in spite of disappointments and setbacks. These experiences will likely be a model for the rest of your life and your approach will see you through with humor, humility and grace! What a great story and example for us all to learn from.
You guys are so positive (on camera!!), it's an awesome mountain you are climbing but I just know you will adapt and overcome. Holdfast
You guys are troopers. You will be rewarded in the long run. Keep up the solid work!
You two can knock out refit problems like old pros. No drama just some elbow grease and a plan. Once your on your way cruising you will be so happy knowing you didn’t cut any corners or ignored a problem. This boat will be better than brand new.
"No drama..." Easy for you to say, trep !
What we see here in 15 minutes actually are hours and hours of hard, enclosed, sweaty work ! 😱
True you are! It’s been a lot of hard work I’m not diminishing that but these two are resourceful and determined to finish this refit properly to a happy end.
Thanks for sharing your lives with us weekly . An your both amazing ppl an I thank you for sharing
I would feel very good about finding this balsa. Your boat is going to be that much better by fixing all of the issues that you find now. Keep up the good work!
Thus the expression “leave no stone unturned” you may have found the final area of rot.
So now is the time to move forward with vigor. You guys are succeeding, carry on.
So glad u2 are taking this setback in stride. Great job and keep us posted. THX!!!
Great progress, because you guys have done everything properly and nearing the end of pulling this apart it was a nasty suprise to find this rot but doing everything the way you have done the boat will be perfect and will last a very long time. The next phase of the rebuild will be more fun as it will be lost of painting and fitout . Although Aladino has some more figuring out to do with the engine and power setup.
Can't wait to see more next week.
Aladino's craft is impressive, this boat will last forever after you guys are done with the refitting. What you found its a step back but you guys took it like Champs, I'm actually glad you guys found it now insted of later. Cheering for your success always!! Love your videos!
We all encounter obstacles in life as well as in projects. What we can choose is how we respond, of course. You two set the good example for the rest of us: remain calm, look the problem square in the face, make a plan, and get to work. Thanks for your inspiring, always-positive determination to prevail. - Don, from a little town on the Erie Canal
As always you two provide well composed video's that for those of us thinking of taking on older boat restoration, well it gives one pause and yet also gives a master class in the ups and downs and solutions to the entire process! The massive amount of knowledge you're passing on is to be highly noted. Anyone following all of your project can witness the truth of the step by step issues and solutions, the materials and amounts! The emotions not withstanding which we are sure to be raw at times, you two balance one another with poise and I adored the time lapse and music as watching that portion was like watching a ballet of sorts! I say that the peace of mind you both will have from knowing every square inch of your new home and having rebuilt it yourselves, i feel will be priceless in your future travels! Thank you both so very much for these masterclasses in vessel reconstruction! (Also your mast is seated dirrectly on the keel?)
Thank you Claris:)
And yes our mast is directly on The lead keel but like always it will need inspecting. The floor is made out of one piece now and I intend to make an inspection opening.
I know it was a real bummer that you found the water and that nasty mold. Be glad you found it before you launched the boat. You could have been at sea or at an isolated or primitive island dealing with a catastrophic boat problem, especially as it involved where the engine mounts were located. Keep the faith. You two are doing a wonderful thing!
All things happen for a reason. A great opportunity to make it perfect and not settle for good enough. Press on.
Hi there, look at your HUGE set back on the other way; NOW you know your boat is 100% new! Get up, its a boat you will come across lost of challenges to fix! I am sure you will succeed. All the best!
Your boat will truly be "Well Rebuilt" very nice job both of you!
With Aledino around no obstacle is to hard to handle!! Never the less, I would be frustrated too, but like you say finally it will be better this way. Keep up the good work :-)
Keep on it Guys. In the End you will know you have a very Solid Blue Water Yatch. Kia Kaha. (Stand Strong) Aroha Nui. ( Big Love)
You two bounce back from setbacks so well! Carry on!
Indeed, this was a sudden development that arose unexpectedly at this stage of the restoration work. But it was done and, as usual, dealt with promptly and very efficiently, without compromising on quality. This boat, when completed, will be a real gem, that's for sure. It was undertaken to get restored by two very capable young people with abundant knowledge and marine craft capabilities, combined with a lot of love and a permanent insistence on perfection. Well, the end result can only be what we all imagine...
A set back but yet another challenge that I am sure you both will get through with flying colours. I am positive that the new galley will be a huge improvement on the old. With Aladino at the helm nothing is impossible.
Poor Maya! at 18:30 you look so dispirited. But, as you two always do, you will power through, and Magic Carpet II will be a superb home.
Aladino: a man 'with grit and grinder'! 😁 Wow, what a massive job! Awesome how you both get on with this project and truely inspiring to myself in my little gardenhouse!.. 👍👍
The details you go into explaining everything you’re doing is masterful! Best boat refit channel, hands down!!
Just a bump in the road .found it fixed it move ahead.you two are incredible at staying positive and your work impeccable! Thanks for taking us along with you on this journey
Fair winds ⛵️
I have been a subscriber since the 1 dollar boat.It's been a heck of a story and I'm glad I tagged along. You both have come so far and I am jealous of Dini's skill set and your musical gift and I look forward to more in the future. It's not a boat,it's a work of art that you get to live in....Soon.
The boat is looking really great. Minor set back in the galley but in the end you will have a much better boat for it. I have been doing the same thing with a Bristol 40. When I built my cold box I used 2" foam sheets on the vertical faces for a total of 6" thick. On the curved part of the hull I used Total Boats two part flotation foam that you mix and then pour into place. It expands like crazy and you can do multiple pours on top of itself. Needs warmth to kick off, I used a ceramic heater since I was doing it in the winter. Worked out great.
I appreciate the amount of detail you are putting in your work. Heads up, friends, you are going to make it. And to Alladino: Grüße aus dem Schwarzwald, klasse, wie ihr das alles macht. Liebe Grüsse, Armin
#1 in video, boat work, and music. Thank you!
Hi to you both,having watched all of your previous videos with their associated problems,i know that with your determination and skills you will win through in the end.You have my respect and admiration regarding the project.Cheers Roly🇬🇧.
Possibly condensation from proximity to fridge? What I do know for certain is that you will fix it and move on. Even though it is a pain in the behind, you two always get it figured out. Best to you.
Super work guys. Keep the spirits up, you will be doing blue water sailing 👍
Keep it up guys, you're doing great
wow so sorry guys, tough break! but hey Aladino to the rescue!!
What I would say is that as long as in your mind all you ever see is the dream, nothing is an obstacle. Just another step in the journey to the hidden beauty you always knew was beneath…
Just found you two, absolutely love your channel. I have subscribed and am binge watching. ❤👍👍
You do good work! Fortunately, it was only a day or 2. So much better for the long term.
really enjoying your videos and I will be cheering for Kirsten in the GGR.
Well done,You guys seemed to have handled it much better than I would have.👍👍
Me too !
Glad you were able to deal with that mold.
As difficult as it was to find these problems, so much better to find them now rather than 2 years from now after you've launched and are at sea. Plus, it looks so clean! As usual, another excellent job done by Aladino.
I bet you will also be confident that the entire areas are done new with your care and precision. Any options to sell the boat will make this all very worthwhile.
Keep battling through. The obstacle is the way.
I can't imagine what you would have to pay to buy a blue water boat which has Aladino's level of craftsmanship. When you're finished, MCII will be absolutely amazing.
Keep up the good work.
You are (almost) always positive. That's a positive sign to develop! Thank you!
25:12 Most importantly a Kiss 👍 Remarkable job so far Guys and I'm learning things along the way too! 🙂
Using a cv joint requires a minimum misalignment angle so it will self lubricate and operate properly. As someone else noted, you will also need a thrust bearing aft of the cv joint. Great work and extremely enjoyable videos.
If you look at the Python Drive CV system (and others) you’ll see that the thrust bearing is integral
I was going to ask (from my experience) "How well did the plastic tent work, actually?" but it appears to have done quite well! Aladino truly is a craftsman and a perfectionist.
Of course, I do imagine he shared just a bit of that dust in your marriage bed!
I know it was a disappointment, a setback, but you SHALL persevere. Stand Tall, Soldier!
And the boat is looking beautiful.
Wow, great attitude,might as well just drive in and kick butt. Great video. 🤩Thank you for sharing. 🤓
OMG 😳 again I can only say that with all your doing and documentation of the refit this yacht will be not only wonderfully reconditioned but as a classic very valuable as well, no turning back now!
I appreciate you guys so much! I'm so sorry you experienced this big let down. You have both come SO FAR though! If you've done this much, there's nothing that will stop you. And maybe now you can have more freedom with the galley than you would've imagined before.
