All boats have a soul, and this boats soul is rejoicing that it has you two as its owners! This video made me feel good, and I think that is also a good thing.
Blue!! I vote for blue! Looking good guys, that hot dip galvanized coating saved that boat from being scrapped rather than saved. Love this rebuild you are doing.
I love you two. Happy faces, great choices in music, great progress with a really interesting build. I always feel so relaxed and happy after watching you.
It was a pleasure to watch those guys work on your boat. They are master craftsmen who take pride in their work. I believe they are worth whatever you have paid them to do that work. Congratulations and cheers.
Roberta, you look like you feel sooooo much better.....yay! And we can understand your English again!😜 Thanks for making my Monday better, guys. And longer videos are better, anyway!
I'M REALLY ENJOYING YOUR VIDEOS. IT REMINDS ME OF MY DAYS ON MY SAILBOAT IN SAN DIEGO. I HAD A BOWSPRIT THAT WAS 8 FEET LONG AND I LOVED IT WHEN I WOULD LET MY WIFE TAKE THE HELM AND I WOULD GO UP AND LAY DOWN ON THE SAIL BAGS AND GO TO SLEEP. I MISS THOSE DAYS BUT YOU GET TO A POINT IN YOUR LIFE THAT YOU HAVE TO MOVE ON AND DO OTHER THINGS.
You guys!!!! Such progress you are making! So proud and impressed by all the hard work ALL of you are doing on this boat ♡ This is what I've been waiting for the aesthetically pleasing part of painting her and making her shine like new money. Can't wait for next week's episode!
a tribute to Yeah, Sure The name David Clark is just about as common as John Smith. I am the other poor David Clark, not the rich guy who makes head phones. I also didn’t compete with the Beatles in 1965 as the “Dave Clark Five”.
If it makes anyone feel any better, I'm not THAT DAVID CLARK, either!! Although, I do have a cousin by that name, but, he isn't that David Clark, either! I think his son also bears the name, but don't go by that part of it!!
Uh ... your videos are never too long! Half an hour is fine ... (from my part they can last an hour) what? I can watch you all day. It will be beautiful! Really can't wait until the next episode. Love you both and keep it up!
She's coming right along,,,Just the primer on her brought out the beauty She really is under all that grime,,,I look forward to seeing her final coler and rigged up for adventure,,,At the pace you are going you will probly see her off the hard new years day if not sooner,,,Good Luck and Fair winds to you both,,,,Stephen B.
I can feel that boat smiling from the inside after being abandoned for so long. Looks fantastic guys. You must be super happy. She is going to be spectacular!
There's nothing more satisfying to see than a big ol boat having its paint/gel restored. I love the concept so much that I started my own boat detailing business 3 years ago...
Nice to see you are not cutting corners on the paint, A good paint job should last a little over ten years with a good epoxy paint, it is expensive but the results are a very shiny boat! Very nice job!
Here at home in the interior of British Columbia Canada, our sailing season is now over (we hauled out on the weekend as the water levels are dropping fast in our lake). As such, our sailing fix will be solely through our favourite YT Channels. Thrilled to watch your progress as we wait for next years season! Also think that 20-30 minute videos are perfect but thankful for any and all that you share! Cheers!!
So exciting! The boat is transforming from the "it has a lot of potential" to being able to see what a gem it is. Makes it even easier to imagine it sailing to beautiful blue waters. Keep up the amazing work and don't worry about if your episodes are too long or too short. Pretty sure people tune in for your great energy and to root you on.
For the first time I think I am seeing the beauty that you saw when buying her. She will treat you well for the care and love you have shown going into this re-fit. Everything has life....well done guys! I love seeing good people doing good things...
Your video always put me in a good and positive mood, keep it up. Your long videos are appreciated, no need to keep them short. Can’t wait to see when it is done, and follow your adventures around the world when you start sailing.
Im totally involved and impressed with this project. Can't wait for the next vlog. Well done you two. Watching your hard work, team work and committment is just absolutely fantastic. Keep it up we are all looking forward to the day you will cast off into the vast horizon off happiness and freedom. Love it...
Always good to see a job being done properly. I built a ferro cement Hull boat with my father a looong time ago. All the preparation you never see if the key to a long lasting and functional boat.
Como eu gosto de vocês e sua “joi de vivre”! Vocês representam o que eu maís adoro e respeito do Brasil e do seu povo. It continues to be a delight to watch you two tackle this enormous project with a will to succeed and an optimism that I so admire. My time in Brazil left its mark for the betterment of my life and my enjoyment of every day. You all have my heart.
That's going to be a beautiful hull -- smooth as glass. Imagine swimming a few meters above the coral in some exotic warm water harbor, boarding your blue-water sailboat That will be cool.
You two are doing a super fine job. Quality overrides quantity every time. Stay vigilant, stay the course and keep up the outstanding work. I get a lot of vicarious satisfaction watching your progress.
I have been following you through this journey. I think what you are doing is incredible. You are inspirational in that you are making your dream happen. Keep moving forward 🇬🇧
I agree. I prefer a video about 20 minutes long. 15 is a bit too short, and 30 is too long. 20 seems to be about the right amount. At least, for me it is. That said, I am very excited to see the rest!
i guess Im asking the wrong place but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account? I was dumb lost my login password. I would love any help you can offer me.
This is so exciting, I don't mind if the video is long or not so long, well truth i live the longer one better! Nice seeing you guys out and about, enjoying a meal and walking in the rain, I'm ready to see the next step!
Like always another heart felt video. You guys are truky remarkable. Cant wait to see the day you guys get to set sail. Keep it up catch yah on the next one.💛
Let’s face it, I am no Duca lol. They are lucky lucky to have so much love, respect and fun together. I wish I was that kind. I am not. Duca makes me see how a better man can be, though I will always be ugly🐶
Dreams are magic and magic is what we need to keep going and realize dreams can come true. The boat looks awesome!!! Im just going thru your old videos as a new subscriber.
Como é bom ver um sonho sendo realizado, acompanhado aqui e achando incrível o que vcs dois estão fazendo! Grande abraço!!! E boa sorte com o clima rsrs.
@@OddLifeCrafting @1detroitryder In last few episode they didn't have any context. After their subs suddenly raised up they decided to have more money and 10 min episodes(with 4 mins just reading names) over context. This channel was so good but they are milking it recently and it's not cool.
Parabéns pelo projeto, está ficando muito bem feito! É muito bom acompanhar as etapas da reforma e aprender com isso... Se quiserem, podem fazer episódios mais longos "acho que ninguém vai se importar kkkk" Abraço e bons ventos!
With the crews attention to detail from what you have shown us , the final paint job will be fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing this adventure with us. I will continue to follow from right here in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.
A boat is meant for a life on the water, not on the hard. He should be grateful to Duca and Roberta for rescuing the sailboat and preparing it again for what it was meant to be. If the boat could talk, it would be singing their praises!
The previous owner's possible remorse will likely be tempered by the realization that the excellent planning and execution of design he put into the boat will be appreciated by it's new owners and not simply overlooked and wasted.
Why? Did he have the interest and the means to restore the boat? I see half a dozen guys working in that boat. The sanding alone took one month. How many man-hours have already been put on this boat, at the absolutely insane boatyard labour prices? Even here in Brasil marine related costs are very substantial, even if obviously cheaper than other places. This is an interesting project, but an expensive one.
I don't know what others think but even in just primer your boat looks 1000% better than when you first saw her, As for myself light gray would be alright by me, too many boats are same colors already but I call a stop at neon LOL.
I suspect you and your boat are the envy of the repair facility. You were able to see, through all the superficial "grunge", the solid, strong and wonderful boat it is about to become. So many other people must've walked by this boat and dismissed it as too far gone to be saved. I would have been one of those people because I had no idea that a galvanized steel boat was ever made. I thought they were all made of fiberglass. I'm very impressed that you had the knowledge to know that a galvanized steel boat that's been sitting for 22 years is the only way to go. Regards, Tom
Hello, Tom. Some people in the marina actually tried to buy this boat, but the former owner didn’t want to see it. Hehe. Many people knew about its potential. There are some boats also made out of aluminium and even cement. Duca’s grandfather built one made out of concrete years ago. 😁
@@OddLifeCrafting Hi Roberta, Thanks so much for the additional information. Maybe you both were able to strike a deal with the owner because you paid his asking price. That's what I seem to recall when you told the story about how you got your boat. Duca recognized its potential and was willing to pay a fair price for it. :-)
I am falling in love with your beautiful boat more & more with each episode! What a difference the prime coats has made in her appearance. Also, there has been something about Roberta that is familiar to me and I just realized what that is.......she reminds me of my own daughter Michelle and her beautiful smile and her upbeat attitude. Also the way she smiles and obviously Loves her husband! I look forward to each new episode and have decided to become a patron!
These videos are awesome, it's really fascinating to see a boat be refurbished from the ground up. Props to you both for documenting and explaining everything so well! (I know a little about sailing, but not "let's take it all apart and put it back together again" level, haha)
Looking awesome. When it comes to you two, I don't care how long the video is, it's worth every minute ❤️🤗 Amazing couple making their dreams come true. So happy for you two. God bless 🙏🤗❤️
Awesome, congratulations! You’ve made some major V.P. (Visual Progress) i’ve been through a lot of huge projects and sometimes it feels like you work, work, work and you don’t see anything really changing. Then all of a sudden, BANG... Visual progress happens. Again, thanks for taking us on your awesome journey. 👍🏽👌🏽⛵️
Primer and body work, that's a big mile stone. It looks like they are doing a great job. I like the way they wrapped the stations and other stainless, I'm gonna steal that for my jobs..
1/2 hour for me isn't good. hehe. I need to tape subtitles in 3 different languages and I would need more than a whole day just for subtitles, as I did on the 43 minutes video. hehe
Felicitaciones! Son una pareja fantástica! Me pregunto, hay algún momento en que no sonríen ? Uds. Contagian alegría y entusiasmo. Muchas gracias es hermoso lo que están haciendo.

Thanks for making my Monday better, guys.
And longer videos are better, anyway!
😂😂 I’m glad you can understand me again. Hehehe. I’m feeling much better. Thanks for the support. Next week the video is gonna be a bit longer 😁
I'M REALLY ENJOYING YOUR VIDEOS. IT REMINDS ME OF MY DAYS ON MY SAILBOAT IN SAN DIEGO. I HAD A BOWSPRIT THAT WAS 8 FEET LONG AND I LOVED IT WHEN I WOULD LET MY WIFE TAKE THE HELM AND I WOULD GO UP AND LAY DOWN ON THE SAIL BAGS AND GO TO SLEEP. I MISS THOSE DAYS BUT YOU GET TO A POINT IN YOUR LIFE THAT YOU HAVE TO MOVE ON AND DO OTHER THINGS.
We are glad to bring good memories of you back. ⛵️💕
You guys!!!! Such progress you are making! So proud and impressed by all the hard work ALL of you are doing on this boat ♡
This is what I've been waiting for the aesthetically pleasing part of painting her and making her shine like new money. Can't wait for next week's episode!
Glad you liked the result of the painting process, Sheila. Thanks so much for your support
It's nice to have a team of people that restore your boat. I'm doing it all by myself and in the water on 1970 Charles Morgan 28.
😊 Good luck on your project, Michael.
@@OddLifeCrafting thank you!!!
You guys make me smile. You have so much positive energy and humor. Cheers from Alberta, Canada.
Glad we can make your day better ! Thanks for the feedback, David. Oh! Alberta is a place that we really want to visit one day! Beautiful place
Hey David Clark, I use your headsets in my plane.
a tribute to Yeah, Sure The name David Clark is just about as common as John Smith. I am the other poor David Clark, not the rich guy who makes head phones. I also didn’t compete with the Beatles in 1965 as the “Dave Clark Five”.
@@clarkd1955 It was a joke.
If it makes anyone feel any better, I'm not THAT DAVID CLARK, either!!
Although, I do have a cousin by that name, but, he isn't that David Clark, either! I think his son also bears the name, but don't go by that part of it!!
The way her face lights up when she looks at him! Adorable, delightful! Keep it up guys!
😍
You are such a lovely couple making your dreams come true. Chapeau!
👫💕💕
Just watching that boat come apart, you can tell it is very well built...Congrats, and may the wind always be at your back...
Thanks for the support, Will. ⛵️💕
All I can say is this is truly the definition of "diamond in the rough" You guy are doing a great job and I'm enjoying taking the journey with you.
💎 ⛵️👫💕
Uh ... your videos are never too long! Half an hour is fine ... (from my part they can last an hour) what? I can watch you all day.

I thought the exterior would be quick and easy - WRONG! Wow! There is SO much work involved! And you two just keep smiling!
The longest job so far!!!
I am so glad you are giving that boat lots of loving care. It will reward you later
💕💕💕⛵️
I can feel that boat smiling from the inside after being abandoned for so long.
Looks fantastic guys. You must be super happy. She is going to be spectacular!

Even the primer makes your boat look very good compared how it looked at the beginning. Wow😊

Obrigada, Robert. Grande abraço!
You can already tell that it will look great with nice boat
😍⛵️
12 minutes is not a long episode I feel like they should be at least 20 minutes
It would be more than 20 if we had put the part 2 together
yup but yotube makes more money for 10 mins :) its calculated , like they are showing most part to patreons not youtube to get more money :)(patreons)
Videos are free to view, don’t complain...
@@OddLifeCrafting @1detroitryder
In last few episode they didn't have any context. After their subs suddenly raised up they decided to have more money and 10 min episodes(with 4 mins just reading names) over context. This channel was so good but they are milking it recently and it's not cool.
Agreed. 20 min is best TH-cam episode length
I am totally excited to see her painted now. You have done soooo much work. :)
😍⛵️
if i could afford a sailboat i would get one that looks just like that one. i like the sharp edges instead of more rounded.
😍⛵️
Wow, what a difference that makes, and that's just the primer.
Can't wait to see the color.
Next week we are gonna show the final color, my friend
longer the episodes the better!
Next week is gonna be a little longer. Hehe
Looking forward to the next episode. Thank you all
We see you next Monday! ⛵️💕
Parabéns pelo projeto, está ficando muito bem feito!
É muito bom acompanhar as etapas da reforma e aprender com isso...

I can bet the previous owner is having second thought on selling.
😂😂 Duca had a nightmare about it already
A boat is meant for a life on the water, not on the hard. He should be grateful to Duca and Roberta for rescuing the sailboat and preparing it again for what it was meant to be. If the boat could talk, it would be singing their praises!
I heard that the previous owner is willing to give ALMOST all of your money back!!! Lol
The previous owner's possible remorse will likely be tempered by the realization that the excellent planning and execution of design he put into the boat will be appreciated by it's new owners and not simply overlooked and wasted.
Why? Did he have the interest and the means to restore the boat? I see half a dozen guys working in that boat. The sanding alone took one month.

Even here in Brasil marine related costs are very substantial, even if obviously cheaper than other places. This is an interesting project, but an expensive one.

Just curious how much money did you spend on the boat repairs and restore plus the amount you bought it?
We will shoot a video in the future about that. We didn’t add up the numbers yet. 😊👌🏼

😂😂😂 thanks for your support!
Looking awesome. When it comes to you two, I don't care how long the video is, it's worth every minute ❤️🤗 Amazing couple making their dreams come true. So happy for you two. God bless 🙏🤗❤️
Thanks for your lovely words and support, as always Wayne! 💕💕
Awesome, congratulations! You’ve made some major V.P. (Visual Progress) i’ve been through a lot of huge projects and sometimes it feels like you work, work, work and you don’t see anything really changing. Then all of a sudden, BANG... Visual progress happens. Again, thanks for taking us on your awesome journey. 👍🏽👌🏽⛵️
Thanks, Kenny
Primer and body work, that's a big mile stone. It looks like they are doing a great job. I like the way they wrapped the stations and other stainless, I'm gonna steal that for my jobs..

1/2 hour is good with me!! ;) she is looking fantastic, I know you two must be so excited!!!! Thx for sharing!!!
1/2 hour for me isn't good. hehe. I need to tape subtitles in 3 different languages and I would need more than a whole day just for subtitles, as I did on the 43 minutes video. hehe
Felicitaciones! Son una pareja fantástica! Me pregunto, hay algún momento en que no sonríen ? Uds. Contagian alegría y entusiasmo. Muchas gracias es hermoso lo que están haciendo.
Tal vez mientras estamos durmiendo. jejeje
