I'm impressed that yellow paint looks as good as it does after all those years. I put that on in 2001 at the boat yard in Raiatea, huge amount of sanding, it was a two part NZ made brand (can't remember the name) with a two part primer system. I did most of the prep and a local guy sprayed it for me, did a great job.
I eagerly look for each episode. Fascinating to see a beautiful Newick Echo rescued. These cold molded craft take an incredible amount of work to restore, even if they haven’t been through a tornado. The skill, knowledge and sheer amount of hard work y’all have put into this project are awe-inspiring. I’ve learned a lot and thank you profoundly for recording and sharing the process.
@@edwardhaigh4249 unfortunately Dick Newick has passed away but there is a website which has a link to plans for sale as well as a contact that you could enquire further. Go check out dicknewickboats.com 😉
@@Camarasailing I thank you for your quick response, as a professional boat builder of high performance multihulls ( Schionning catamarans) I have always found trimarans to be the most purist form of multihull and there is something about the constant camber tris of Dick Newic, even though they are old designs I still get a buzz every time I see one, cheers and thanks again for the info and can't Wait to see your tri on the water and doing what she was designed to do.
Although Dick Newick worked with Jim Brown and John Marples in developing the CC construction method I can’t recollect any of Dick’s designs that actually used it, tho’ I could be wrong. Unlike Jim and John’s boats the 3D CC curvatures did not really lend themselves to Dick’s longer flowing lines I built one of John’s 35’ centre cockpit tris in CC and then a Newick Echo 35 in strip plank. The latter certainly was the more performance oriented but the CC boats were faster and easier to build, and certainly more sturdy. We built many workboats and cruising cats and exported CC panels for final construction elsewhere Another advantage of building CC hulls is the minimal final fairing required when the panels are vacuum bagged over the master mould
Hello I always dream of owning a boat that style one day I hope I can before I'm to old. I will subscribe I'd like to see your boat sailing it's a beautiful boat. Thank you for sharing your story. Watching from USA California.
Awesome job on the video, editing and narration. Thanks so much for documenting this fascinating restoration. I've known Peter for years and it's always a privilege to learn from him. We hope to see you in the islands this year!
Thank you! We sure do!!! Currently busy rebuilding the engine. You’ll see her in the next video (when we hauled her after 3.5yrs in the water) before we finish off the trimaran video series 😉
Thank you ☺️ We took our big boat into the marina for Gabrielle and Little Wing was secured in the boatyard. Fortunately neither boat had any damage. Very grateful!!!
I'm a latecomer to these videos, but have thoroughly enjoyed them all. It's great to see how the family interacts too. One question though....why is everything grey? Is it simply a matter of choice/ preference or is there a more nuanced/prosaic reason. Just asking...
Hi there - thanks for watching! Good question. We haven’t purposely chosen grey. On Camara we liked the idea of a dark hull and liked the look of the graphite grey. When it came to the inside we knew we wanted a light colour but didn’t want it to be white so went with the light grey. Our son chose the colour for his trimaran from a colour chart and somehow landed up with the light grey. Perhaps because at one point he was thinking of adding shark teeth graphics on the bows so the light grey would have gone well with that. So not really any particular reason, just happened that way 😉
Thank you. I have enjoyed watching this series on the restoration, and seeing the skills at work. I also have a cold molded trimaran, but not as slick as this beauty. You've all done an outstanding job on the restoration. Thanks for saving this boat!
It is So Awesome to See Family work together on a Big Project. Sorry to say my Two Daughters never have Time for Dad or there Dead Bet Husband. I love the Color also. Will you be doing the Art 🖼 work? Tell your Husband he a Awesome Father in teaching boat Repair. I am still dreaming of learning to sail or be a Deckhand. Peace Be With You and Family. Gory of the States
Quality work on the boat and the video.😀👍⛵️

Do you know if plans are available to build this boat? I would love to build one, a classic well ahead of its time.

Super work and boy does she look cool!
Your kids will grow up to be excellent project managers. I envy your lifestyle, but you put a lot of hard work into it.
Thanks again ☺️
This trimaran series is so amazing, I’ve never seen anything like this, the skills are astounding!
Thank you so much ☺️
Epic Bru ....🔥🔥🔥
Cheers Bru
Can't wait to see the interior of this beast!
Absolutely fantastic. Looking forward to seeing this little flyer whizzing about once again.
Thank you! We can’t wait to sail her!!!
Phenomenal! But Pete you should have had a survey before you started….would’ve saved you time in the long run 😂😂
A survey wouldn’t have really saved any time as such, it takes what it takes to fix it…😉

Stunning!! Can't wait to see her back in the water! We are really enjoying your well done videos!
All the best from California!!
Thank you so much ☺️
Looking good!. It’s going to be a weapon of a boat, oh to be spoilt for choice.
Thank you! We sure do!!! Currently busy rebuilding the engine. You’ll see her in the next video (when we hauled her after 3.5yrs in the water) before we finish off the trimaran video series 😉
Brilliant!
Thank you 😊
Awesome job by the whole family! Project is looking great. Hope Gabrielle didn't hit you too hard. All the best and thanks for the videos.

Now she's coming together
She sure is. As a little real time update: she’s booked to launch today! Fingers crossed it all goes well 🤞
quality work mate was this the boast that was at smoke house bay on kings birthday weekend
Yes it was! Our friends now own it and we were there on our boat as well!
@@Camarasailing well it looks great 👍🏻
What is that Guide Coat product you were using?
International Sanding Guide Coat 😉
Thank you.
I have enjoyed watching this series on the restoration, and seeing the skills at work.
I also have a cold molded trimaran, but not as slick as this beauty.
You've all done an outstanding job on the restoration.
