- Just as we’re beginning to put Atticus II back together, and we’re finally starting to feel close to splashing, we hit a HUGE roadblock. We definitely were NOT expecting this!

Whenever I get the urge to buy a boat, I just watch a couple of your vlogs and it cures me of the urge! Thanks!
funny
This is true. Jordan is very good at doing projects, enjoys doing projects and has a high threshold for frustration. I do not enjoy projects and get frustrated quickly. No boat ownership for me.
Though job the mast steps .
You ended the video before
I could see what wood you used .
Im sure the replacement is long done by the time you read this.
I have a leaky Teaky my mast steps are solid teak and not glassed or painted and are 44 years Most of the time wet and in perfect condition just food for thought.
I have replace other rotted wood
On my boat supports and parts of the Bowsprit with ipe wood . If your not Familiar with it it's Brazilian walnut it one of the hardest strongest wood on the planet does not float and is Guaranteed for 75 years without rot.
@sizzlemann there nothing like being on the water
Me it gave me the urge to buy one,start small
Remember they are refitting for long passage there boat is in super condition
True . I will not own another boat it’s more work and cost Over renting and renting is not cheap. I would like to know the cost of their work when they are done.
Oso is the perfect boat dog. Friendly with a low center of gravity.
Jordan, you can use white distilled vinegar to rub on your hands after working with fiberglass and it’ll remove the itch. The vinegar dilutes the glass and stops the itch in your skin. Then you can just wash with cold soap and water to remove the smell. It’s the best solution that I found to remove the itch from fiberglass.
I uest to work with fibreglass. Always have a cold shower first .a hot shower opens the pores and allows the strands to get in .cold washes them off first
Not only do PS make exceptional boats, but their customer service is absolutely amazing. It's definitely nice to be anchored up, basically, in the backyard of PS. Jordan, at least you discovered the mast step issues while docked and not on passage in open waters. Cheers and safe travels.
That was a genius move, to bring the boat to around the corner fro the builder's yard and be able to consult with them and for them to help. And neat from them to collaborate.
Yes it was! Genius that should not have been needed!
You will be able to trust Atticus II with your lives.
Something every sailor wants out of their boat.
I love the care you're taking to get this right.
Neptune shall bless your journeys because of the respect you have for his relm. AML
I beginning to feel sorry for you guys! Keep the spirit up! You are awesome 👏
Got yourselves quite a nirvana when it comes to the amount of acquired tools with these recent projects. We are six generation farmers down under and the tool box is imperative to fixing up jobs. It also brings a willing smile at each new addition purchased.
You definitely chose the right place to do all this work. Experts nearby is awesome!
It wouldn't be an Atticus episode without Jordan folding his 6'6" self into an impossibly small space. He's like a magician's assistant. 😎
100% FACT!
Desiree. Fabulous plating of your pork tenderloin meal while Jordan works on the heat ‼️👍🏻👏🏻
On the wooden toe rail, I used a heat gun and heated the varnish, then scrapped, it comes right off. You two are learning everything about your boat, so when in remote locations, you can do the work.
I'm a Citristrip guy, myself. Paint it on thick and leave it for a day. When you come back the varnish will peel right off with a scraping tool.
Jordan, you look so comfortable contorted an a small confined space. Whenever I find myself in my sail locker working I invent to profane words to use and, you are always so calm.
Its really cool that Pacific Seacraft is right in your backyard to lend a hand and expertise, can't overstate the value of that. I imagine they will show you how to build in the 'new design' mast step, very interested to see that.
Jordan. Have to commend you and your efforts. Tons of work to fix major components. And, of course, Desiree on the cap rail. It is inspiring to watch a man and a woman working together as husband and wife towards their dream. B. R. A. V. O. ‼️ ✨ 🌊⛵️🏝👙🌞✨
Pretty awesome watching you all enhance the boat for sail to warmer waters. Learning a lot from this channel.
I guess no one saw that coming, mast step is an import part of the rig, so the time spent repairing it on land will be time spent at sea feeling confident it wont fail.
It really shows how hidden parts that cannot got to are not thought out ...given the age, its understandable with new technologies but its not a new problem to boats so designers and builders .....
Good on the boat yard staff for helping solve the problems...
I have been watching many sailing videos, but yours is by far the best ever. Thanks a mill.
Your ability to remain calm and address each issue never fails to impress us. You guys always find a way to solve the problems. I know you’re ready to be gone, but we’ve really enjoyed your NC videos.
Glad you found that before it failed on you in the Middle of the Pacific. I can't wait to see you all get out to open sea!
When you run out of fuel on these heaters you have to re prime the fuel right up to the heater ie take off the little tube and suck the diesel through (a little bit of diesel in the mouth is not that bad though you might want to read the story about “young Ethelred” first). The other thing you have to do after a few failed starts is pull out the fuses for a few seconds to reset internal controller. I’ve run mine out a couple of times so have learned not to as I have to unbolt my heater to get to the fuel tube. My heater wasn’t starting one week end so I bought a whole new heater as a spare, especially as my heater is integrated into the function of the boat (space heating, water heating, drying cupboard, drying out the heads after showers, and now heating water for my new washing machine (Costway brand 43cmx43cmx74cm 3.5kg load I found a place under a seat cushion over the keel). It’s no fun being cold.)
Will great info ,what boat do you have ?
Doing great work as usual guys. Glad you caught this here instead of when your mast collapsed in the middle of the Pacific.
Stay strong my friends. Your joy will come soon. Mast step corrosion is an issue on our 1978 Pearson 365 which used galvanized steel! And this is a salt water boat. You wonder sometimes 'what were those guys thinking'? Maybe it was overexposure to polyester resin fumes!!
That's Not WORK...That's an ADVENTURE..😁..!!!
Keep driving forward. You guys are an inspiration
The all in one oscillator is a life savior in many ways.. then its all patience, do diligence, and just alot of sweat. Atleast you both doing and not waiting..so ya smell the same 🤪. Go team. Love ya. Stay safe and keep a joyous attitude. Hugzzz
Man, those people at PACIFIC SEACRAFT are pretty awesome! Keep on Truckin" Ya'll
These are a few anti-corrosion tips I've picked up along the way from working on high rise buildings and pumping stations in marine environments. I don't know if any of these tips would be useful on a boat (except for passivation).
Passivate stainless steel to keep it from bleeding rust. The embedded ferrous molecules from the fab shop is what makes ss bleed rust.
Use mylar film or high impact plastic shims to keep dissimilar metals apart.
Use phenolic washers and sleeves with stainless steel bolts to keep the bolts from contacting the bolted material.
Isolate type 304 stainless from 316 stainless in a marine environment.
For some projects in harsh environments like chemical plants, the job specs called for electroless nickel plated bolts, nuts and washers. It keeps the threads from galling together over time.
Hi Jordan, in cases of stuck fasteners especially with a slotted pan head the fastest and easiest way to remove them is drill the head out. Use a bit that is fairly close to the threaded size, even if you have to guess that’s okay. Start small and keep increasing bit size til the head pops off. Then remove the plate and use vice grips on the leftover over threads to remove. Replace fasteners with new that ARE NOT slotted (flat head sucks). Hope this helps
All that sweat equity you put into Atticus1 is resulting in major savings of money/labor for Atticus 2 from skills you learned. Can’t even imagine what it would cost if you paid boatyard to remediate this problem. Great video guys. Outstanding!
Jordan
As you rebuild the step a good isolating material would be a sheet of G10 fiberglass, also handy to have on the boat when you take off for maintenance material.
And that is why I could not own a boat. I can barely change a lightbulb, and seeing this, throws me off. I guess I will have to stick with boat chartering in the Bahamas. Very impressed with you both. Keep up the great videos.
For seized screws, along with the pb blaster, heat them up with a small torch and allow to cool, the expansion and contraction works miracles....may take a few cycles but it works
nice variety of tasks -- and the reality of the hard, hard work involved in addressing serious boat issues
Hey, I've been away for a while, but I'm enjoying catching up with you two again. It looks as if you are in McCotter's Marina, the same place we found our dream boat and bought her in 1998, a 1975 Irwin 37 CC ketch. Not the same pedigree as yours, but we love her. Thanks for making your videos so interesting and informative. And Good Luck.
More Captain Osso. We enjoy ? Watching Jordan bend in half in the bilge but could also enjoy your (and Sir Osso’s) adjustment to life together. Your family is growing.
"Welcome...to another edition of 'Jordan's Do It Yourself Boat Repair" LOL. Hang in there kids!
So tip for hull cleanup and material removal. A 1 inch belt grinder is awesome and way less dust.
I got to say doing that work is hard enough, and filming it at the same time that's a whole new thing, you must be superman Kudos!
I have to admit that when I first started following your channel in the early days of Atticus I, I was expecting more sailing and less fixing, but it's been a fascinating and learning experience to see just how much work and preparation goes into the cruising lifestyle. It's been fun, and if I was going blue water sailing I would want you two onboard! Love you guys!
Good job you two are doing soon you all will be finish then will be sailing again can't wait for the next video take care be safe always.
I have to hand it to you Jordan, I would be cursing and throwing things if I were tucking into such cramped places, Itching and sweating; I would be furious! But you, my man are such a calm, cool person under pressure, we can all benefit from watching you handle tough situations. That is unless your lovely wife spends hrs editing it that way. LOL, love the channel.
OK some parts may be edited out if you know what i mean. Cursing is proven to improve progress on certain work elements.
Interesting repairs and a lot of work. You should have a little several seconds clip of your fun times to balance it all out when you're working there real hard. A lot of memories in the making.
So courageous and tenacious! 👍 You guys are inspiring 👍
Getting there!! Best of luck for the next few days ahead. Although we are probably a few weeks behind on your videos? You have really changed your beautiful boat in such a great way!! Really is going to be so good to see the rest of the world in her for you.
Good jon Jordon, This is the elbow grease that make you love your boat. You are doing excellent.
Raul and Joan Bryan, Texas
Enjoyed your video! Love your meticulous approach to repairs! Nicely done!
so what you know what you do now . will make her a better boat and last longer hug :)
Can’t wait for your new episode every Saturday. Great work and tons of valuable information. Good luck and I’m sure you are looking forward sailing to the Caribbean Islands soon.
Atticus II is looking beautiful. Can't wait to see the finished product. Thanks for sharing.😎
Nice job on the redo. Your diligence and attention to detail is commendable. Nice to have factory reps and well equipped hardware stores close by. Keep up the good work and I really enjoy your vlogs. Stay focused on the "Splash"
Capt K
Mads on sail life has been restoring his boat Athena for the last 5 years..these things take time , I think
Ordinary Brake fluid also helps as a corrosive. Let it sit for 3 hours. Nice technical clip Cheers
A great thing to have discovered it now. Good job.
Money, Money, Money, 💰! Moneeey! Thanks to patrons!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 for their support. Wish I could make a video about all the work needed on my truck! Lol.........
Soooo much fun. Any thoughts of ever buying a boat this vlog settles it once and for all. You guys are great. Much respect and admiration. Cannot wait to see this bad boy on open sea.
I think that boat is more than ready for open water....you guys are doing a great job getting the "core" in shape! Thats the most important thing. The smaller projects can be done at sea...lets sail!!!
I hope you thought to make a teflon gasket to slip between the SS plate and the Aluminum mast step. Of course by now you've probably already stepped the mast. Tip. When grinding in an enclosed space, if the vacuum has a decent filter in it, leave the vacuum running. It will really help filter the fine dust particles out of the air as you work.
We arrived in the Bahamas with our puppy (12/21), presented the Junkyard's up-to-date paperwork and that was the end of it. My wife's book is a good read, published by Austin Macauley of New York, literally a fictional story of sailing and adventure: "Seychelle and the Cannabis Yachties". It is very entertaining, hoping you will give it a read.
Oh my gosh you really gotta be up for all this work that is something else what are you doing a good job
You guys work so hard I can't wait to see you out enjoying your new boat!
Oh boy guys! Good luck with all this. So sorry this is happening but better now then finding out at sea.
He should be wearing eye protection while grinding fiberglass, etc.
You can get pinkeye from airborne fiberglass too. You have to be careful with your eyes, always wear eye protection.
Great video Buddy"s!!! Be safe!
hug from this old dog it will be a great boot :)
Wow ! that is very hard work but it will be worth it in the end and you will feel so much more confident once the mast is in place , sit back tonight and enjoy a drink , you both deserve it XXXXX Kevin..New Zealand
Thankfully my 1975 Islander 36 had the mast step redone back in 2001 with a polyurethane block instead of wood, it was a issue for them aswell. I'm surprised though they didn't isolate the aluminum from the stainless with urethane or nylon inserts around the bolts and a pad for the plate.
Great progress⛵🐶👍
Good times guys, good times.........
Lets get a Boat, it will be fun? Bleep Bleep Bleep
Hey guys. We all prefer that these situations happen while you are still in port. So, be patience because we are being so... Godspeed!
You guys are friggin killing it! You should be so proud of yourselves, and your attitudes are awesome! Keep on keeping on
And I was complaining about my overhead fan breaking yesterday.. thanks for the perspective! 😅 Always feel refreshed and motivated after watching one of yalls episodes 🙌
The dreaded slot headed screw ..... FFS what were they thinking? Just another example of what 20 years can do even on a low hour extremly clean & solid boat. Sailing is one incredibly harsh environment and so hard even on the most robust materials.
so glad to see you're doing it right so it doesn't become a problem again - great work - great video
Oh man, it is ALWAYS something huh. Hang in there, one small step at a time. Love the videos.
We run the same type of heater in the big rigs, it is common for them to stop working. you can get a kit to replace the atomization screen and fuel filter for less than $30 in most places. pretty easy to change, just be careful not to break the glow plug, thats expensive
I have that same heater in my Flicka and they’re a pain.
The mast step on my Tayana 37 was also rotted very similar to yours.
The entire mast had actually dropped a few inches and caused my rigging to loosen.
I ended up repairing it on anchor by using bottle jacks to raise the mast 6 inches off the step so I could dig out the old block the same way you did.
Great work guys! It's fun watching others struggle as much as I've been 😂😂
Good luck with hard but very needed work👏🥂👌
Oh man I wish I could give real time advice. Espar heater might need to be disconnected from power and restarted 4-5 times after running out of fuel. That’s my Van Life experience.
Jordan
You probably have the Espar heating running by now but I had a similar issue after I bought my V-42. If the heater has a number of failed starts it trips a circuit that requires a special reset button. As I remember the manual doesn't tell you where that button is. In my case the red button was laced into the main cable harness. You unwrap that harness and you may find it. That will allow it try the start sequence again. It is also a good idea to run it on kerosine once in a while which helps keep the burner screen clean.
Steve SV Restless V-42-142. I am close in New Bern
It was so bad I went out into my Garage an got a dust mask just to finish watching you.. Drilling 3/4 holes in that block of wood would have been easier, then pry the bugger out.. Hope you got the right height for the step . Mast stanshines would be loose or tight NP you got this ~~ Carry-on
Great video. Love watching you guys making the boat great again
I recommend..after 24 years in the US Navy...try some simple Walgreens wintergreen oil on the stuck bolts. When you re-install use axle grease on the threads. PB Blaster gives me a headache ..the smell is nasty. After seeing the carbon Steel helicoils...yep the only way to to just rip it all out
Great videos! I'm always learning something and that oso is the cutest !! Thanks !!
My heater has a relay switch that kicks to off position if unit overheats for many different reasons. Fast fix wack or tap with screw driver handle the relay. Fixed👍🏼
Great episode!! Keep rolling on all those open items!! Knock them out one at a time!! Be safe Atticus 2 crew!!
Wow the work you put in is awesome well done you both totally rock
My thought is that in places where wood could possibly get an intrusion of water, use plastic wood like they make for outdoor decks on houses.
Grinding resin in your home is no fun... take care Buds, you're getting there!
Might want to consider a wood/rubber composite solid product for your new block (Trex) or a tropical hardwood (Ipe) that wont rot or at least wont rot while you guys own it.
new boat to you , problems it is what it ,hope there many more any more good luck
I'm really surprised the Impact screw driver didn't get those loose. As a professional Mechanic that's one of the last tools I go for before I just start drilling the bolt out...
Hmm... I think I remember offering you an incredible deal on a brand new Allures Yachting 40.9, which, as I was saying, it would be up to date design and equipment that you could afford... Love watching you prove my point weekly... Its my job to know these things because I do not BS people about the best thing for them, rather than what those, in my opinion, used car SALESMEN did to you... You know who I am talking about... Remember, I was guiding you for a future plus... 😉👍
Omg Jordan, upgrade to a proper respirator!! I’m grinding my interior right now to prep for a settee rebuild and can relate to the plastic tarp and being covered in dust, but man let me tell you, a tyvex suit and a respirator are making all the difference in the world!
Very Interesting. Thanks.
There are triangular sanding pads for oscillating tools that work well at smoothing areas without throwing a lot of dust or gouging the underlying material. So great for spot sanding.
I'm glad you showed that Blaster stuff. I was thinking of getting that for a corroded valve on my water pipe, that's keeping me from installing a bidet.
After the electric drill those reciprocating multitools are one of the most useful power tools ever produced.
Heat and quench with release oil, with slot head screws repeat... allow time you need the max. width and thickness. Very old screws are notorious for having fine slots .. ive even had to oil grind blades down so they will fit.
It appears to me that Pacific Seacraft could have provided more support in the repair of the engineering issue, out of warranty or not. Wish you had bonus footage of Jordan's DIY skills for this project.
