This man's love of everything sailing is totally infectious - thanks.
Hi Teo, May I ask a few questions about the hatches you used?
1. Are they waterproof/watertight?
2. What brand hatches did you use
3. What did you seal them with - The black stuff!!!
I had a crack in my Lugger and had to cut into the mid-ships bouyancy tank but rather than have some porthole inspection hatches I think I may as well use the space and install some larger hatches.
Hi Dave!
I'm sorry to hear about that!
The hatches are NOT 100% waterproof. If underwater for 5 minutes maybe just under a 1/4 pint will get in the tank
The brand is Nuova Rade, made in Italy and I got them from Waveinn.
The black stuff is Fischer MS Nautic.
Cheers,
Teo
Great Videos and you have built a really nice looking GIS. I am interested in the side seats/tanks. Great idea , I think I will do the same. I'm currently considering how wide to make them and interested in the width at B/H 3 that you decided on. Also are you happy with the width that you have? BTW:- I really enjoy watching your videos.
Hi Phillip,
I believe I mention the width on the video but if I remember correctly is around 24cm and the distance remains the same all the way to BH4. This width was chosen according to my sailing position and leg length so that the seat doesn't touch my legs. Experiment with a batten like I did before deciding on the best width for you.
Hi Teo, Looking for your video on the PVC hiking seats but can't seem to find the right episode. what diameter of PVC did you use and what is the link to the video? Thanks!
Hi Buzz!
I believe this is the video you 're looking for: 😉

To avoid future water damage you might want to use Drill-Fill-Drill when attaching thing like the hooks for the cargo net.
1. Drill oversize hole
2. Fill hole with thickened epoxy
3. Then attach the fastener through the epoxy plug instead of directly into the wood.
You are doing a great job. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Ross! Thanks for the tips.
I actually filled the hole with epoxy and screwed the hooks immediately after.
On the tiller and mast I did fill the oversize holes with epoxy+microfibers and re-drilled them after! 😉
Where did you get the hatches from ? What kind are they ?
Thanks
I got them from Waveinn site, 380mmx380mm by Nuova Rade, an Italian brand.
What exactly is the black stuff you are using for waterproofing?
Fischer's MS Nautical. it's not just a sealant, it's a glue as well with all pros and cons associated...
Thanks @@TheBoatRambler , I always struggle with what to put under these things. Inevitably you have to take them off at some point ;)
You have really made your Goat into something beautiful and well appointed. Your workmanship is great to watch. Bravo
Thank you Kevin! 😊

Nice work, looking good. Also the Princess is a lovely looking boat.
Thanks Benedict!
Princesa has been sanded and repainted on the inside.
Now it needs all the traditional flowers and lettering repainted inside and outside!
I will try to film that as master Eduardo hand paints everything again.😉
The hair dye. Don't fall into the trap. Be authentic.
Nice mods! now you won't lose anything when you capsize! It's getting ready to sail! Hurray!
Thanks André!
No more swimming after my gear!! 😁

Teo essa ideia da rede ficou mesmo brutal mais um sítio prático para guardares algum tipo de material, excelente.
E a música que entrou quando começamos a carregar o mastro kkk lindo
A musica tinha de ser...😂
Muito porreiro... Obrigada pela partilha :)

Obrigado pela dica de fazer a rede com o nó Japonês! 😉
Abraço!
Your Goat is the GOAT! Love it! Your build is quite the inspiration!
Appreciate it Pete! 😉
Teo's favourite saying....."I just eye-balled it..."
I tend not to, but I want to get sailing asap!! 😁
Buenas noches
Muy buenos tus videos y tu trabajo exelente saludos desde pueblo viejo Veracruz mexico
Gracias Nestor!! 😉
Any plans to install round inspection hatches on new lateral watertight seats?
I will eventually fit some... for now I want to get back out there sailing asap! 😁
Saludos desde pueblo viejo Veracruz mexico
Gracias Nestor! 😉
doing a very good job. Love watching your videos
Thank you John! 😉
Excelente trabalho, belo barco e saudações do Brasil.
Muito obrigado! 😉
Teo, nice idea to add the nets for storing stuff. But, by screwing the eyebolts I think there is the risk that the wood will absorb humidity and could be rot after some time. What is your opinion?
Hey Enrico!
I put epoxy on the eyebolt's threads before screwing to the frames, no water should get in there. 😅
Excelente como siempre tus videos
Thank you Tara!
Looks really great!
Thanks Robert!
It's taking almost as much time as building a full GIS but in the end it will be worth it...I hope! 😅
I am fascinated
Thank you Wick Luck!
