Possibly the most informative series of videos I've ever seen.
Highest quality.
Its refreshing to know that there are still tradesmen who take pride in their work.
Mate it's lovely to see a great British craftsman doing a job well
12:00 lovely craftsmanship and melodious commentary.
If I were laid up in bed with an ailment, I could happily watch all these videos.
Very engaging and pleasing on the eye.
What a handsome job! It's such a pleasure to see someone take pride in their work. Thanks for taking the time to show your work John.
Wow! Just finished watching this series. Sooo good, great skills and attention to detail. Loved it!
John thank you for a superb series. I've now got a far better understanding of what's ahead of me when the time comes. What I need to do now is put a rough cost to the job allowing for tool hire etc. Thank you again, great way to spend a wet and windy afternoon.
As an ex sprayer (car / motorbike body mainly), it was a treat to see how the other side works. Ive a lathe to paint and possibly an old mid sized commer lorry. Must be in rebellion or something because I dont intend to take a spray gun near either of them :).
Thanks for the uploads, gives folks me like a good leg up on what to do with a brush.
All the best

Brilliant video
great set of video's, I don't think I could have even started to paint my boat without seeing these, I've taken the roof down to the metal and applied rust proofing, then two coats of primer, two undercoat, and finally two top coats, and now I've started the sides, thanks for sharing your years of experience, my boat doesn't look like the picture now, I'll update my picture when I've finished, thanks again
Shame you never recorded the sign writer. Fantastic Job all the same good Work John Nice too see Man take pride in his Work.
Brilliant series, looking to buy my own boat in a couple of years and got a lot of tips from this, well done John and looking forward to more.
Very interesting and enjoyable 7 episodes.
A consummate professional, I think.
I like to watch / listen to things in which there are so many points which I would not have considered myself. This guy mentions so many things in passing that would not have occurred to me (of course I am not a professional in this field).
I don't have a narrow boat (there aren't any here in Japan).
If I were back in my home country of The U.K., though, and I had a boat like that, I sure would be happy to take it to this place for renovation.
Thanks a lot for the interesting videos.
Outstanding piece of work !!
Thank you so very much for this extremely informative series...it is a joy to see the finished article (even though I actually thought the boat looked pretty good before you started...I guess that shows you the limit of my aspirations!).
Sanding to the edge is great news to see
Thank you so much John for a fantastic job we are over the moon she looks absolutely stunning what a transformation 😃
Thanks John, I got so much from this series. Your delivery actually made the information go in. You gave me a new set of eyes. I am wondering when your next course is. Kind regards, Paul.
excellent series.
Beautiful work.
nice transformation, lot of work you done there.
Hi John, thank you for a great series of well produced videos. Stunning job on that boat. I have a repaint to do on the 50 ft boat that I have recently bought and I am tempted to come and do a course.
I think for a nice touch for your website or something, have a clip of your customer seeing the boat for the first time. Think it would be great tool for you to show prospects. After all, people aren't buying paint, they are buying the emotions and feelings they get to experience when they have their new boat. Important for prospects to be able to imagine that experience when considering hiring you.
Stunning 🙂
What a beautiful looking paint job..
thank you we intend to do another complete repair for the channel soon
fantastic
Great Job, Fantastic amount of info.... BGAS L II :)
great videos
and cool music at the end
Fantastic job!, just wondering after watching all your video clips, do you need to varnish after applying the final top coat?
Fantastic really enjoyed the vlogs , I have a boat on the Broads just had one thought your pain sand paint idea why not just use a very good deck paint you probably no your self if it wares down threw time it is so easy to mask up and apply another coat with no prep jobs a good one ...
hi
the paint i use is a deck paint the extra grip provided by the sand is there mostly for the gunnels which are very narrow and don"t give that good a foot hold.
thanks for the comment
great videos very imformative will help us with our painting of our boat next year many thanks for posting vids what paint have you used on the roof is it simply red lead
hi its epifanes multi-forte it comes in a number of colours and is both good for roofs and decks
thanks for reply
If possible,what would be the cost of the job you have done to this boat"average"and by the way,what a fantastic job you have done.
When you replace the screws in the windows and doors do you use what is called resuesteel as is used in the marine boats? It is a grease that is just about impossible to wash off and does not harden at all and keeps moist out.
hi Paul,
we put an all weather sealant on all the screws to seal both the threads and the heads of the screws
Hello John from Romania 🇷🇴
Verry WONDERFUL job on this boat !
Can i paint a car like this, with a brush ?
yes you can the primer i used is no longer available but the process is still good
lovely job have you ever painted a boat with pink on it x
Aloha from Hawaii.. thank you.. what temperature do paint in
We try to keep around 17c
how long should the paint 🎨 last if looked after
what tape do you tend to use for your lining John
Hi, Tessa tape its the precision mask (the yellow one )
Great job little monster 🎃😈🎃
What colour/code did you do the coach lines John?
I think it was number 1 in the Epifanes range
Its allways a pleaure to watch a craftsman at work isnt it
