Dino is a master craftsman and his attention to detail, preparation and focus is what makes this boat stand out from the rest. Phenomenal artistic eye!
Indeed, the methodical approach he takes to his craft is enjoyable to watch.
As a brazilian, I loved hearing Brazilian music in this episode!
As the husband of a Brazilian, me too!
And it was played while they were doing stuff with teak wood (I think it’s from Brazil?), so nice touch!
Guys, seeing her in the direct sunlight.....
HOLY MOLY
And seeing the interior with sunlight coming through the port lights!
The lines of those teak caps really remind me of the soundholes of classic string instruments. It's so beatiful!
Absolutely beautifully done. The ultimate desired result in design is when amazing aesthetic meets practical, effective function living together as equals.
Ever find yourself fascinated by a person doing something that you know your own soul will not sit still for?
Watching this man sacrifice time for precision is a weekly lesson for me…not so that I will be the same…but rather to appreciate that such exists in this world and that variety in humans is wonderful.
Nice work and thanks for the weekly perspective.
I have watch your videos for a very long time. If I may say this, your boat will be one of the best looking and finest boats out there. A pure craftsman!!
Those aren't just aesthetics, you are building the boat's character!
Those “little things” are what we called , Cabin light Toggles or Cabin light keeper Toggles. Love the beautiful work you both have accomplished, she is going to be beautiful!
Bossa Nova! A time trip to my youth; thank you!
That was a great ending seeing the two of you drawn into a totally unscripted conversation about such a beautiful feature in the cockpit was wonderful. I can't wait to see you using the combing seats while sailing. 👯 Oh happy dance! 💞⛵
Nautical coaming is spelled this way. Combing is what we do to hair. English is tricky!
Very nice work! 😊 ... and I also liked the 'epilogue' after the patronlist very much
Love your channel. A very pleasant couple working together in actually rebuilding a beautiful boat, doing it properly. And actual sailors .... A welcome change from the usual van life on water with no idea of sailing , sprinkled with drama and bikinis stuff. I really get " the Pardeys meeting social media" vibes watching your woodworking 😆
All the best for your project guys 💕
Great video, especially the cuts and the music. Love it.
Functional elegance👏
Lovely watching a master at work
As always, I truly enjoy watching each of you work; especially the fluidity of movement in such tight proximity. And while I am impressed with Aladino's technical skills with the tools and design expertise, as a fellow content creator, I have to say that Maya's expertise behind the scenes efforts with camera positions and editing prowess is second to none. Keep up the great work guys!!
It's a privilege to watch a professional-level boat builder do something tricky like this and pull it off perfectly. If I could up-vote this video ten times I would. One of your best.
Hi, following you from France (sorry for my English, ich hätte vielleicht besser Deuscth geschrieben). I love you both! Aladino is a great swiss army knife. However, for months, I've been missing Maya, my artist of the week, giving soul to the show, I miss her music, her comments, her presence, her smile and Canadian positive mood ! I hope Maya, you're going well: you're almost there (let Aladino finish your sea nest with safety & precision), adventure is coming back soon.
"...things are not symmetrical and that's okay..." OMG, did he actually say that?!
Perfection is very often offensive to the eye. I used to obsess over laying out perfect curves before I found out my way often is to shape the material until it looks good to my eye. One thing that makes a huge difference is the thickness of what you're using. Building things with stock thickness can look a lot worse than choosing the thickness that looks best in the finished piece.
the most beautiful faces are never symetrical, That is a fact.
Outstanding woodwork. That is going to be beautiful and comfortable.
Both a craftsman and an artist and we get to see him in action. What a treat! Thanks
As a brazilian, was very nice to hear brazilian music as soundtrack. Quite a surprise. Keep up with the fantastic work. ❤
looks amazing, very natural and balanced 👌🏻
I find it fascinating how teak can get anyone even somewhat enthusiastic about it into a frenzy of appreciation. I know this from my little experience with it.
The thing I wanted to comment was, I’ve devised from someone a process expanding on drill fill and drill. This process to drill the hole bigger than the screw/bolt but when you fill it with epoxy put a lightly waxed screw bolt slightly longer than the one you need into the hole. When epoxy cures, because the bolt/screw is lightly waxed, just unscrews out leaving a perfectly threaded hole in the epoxy. I’ve not actually put it into practice yet but my little test and checking if it would work did exactly that. Lining them up properly maybe the trick yet but thought it a good method to mention. 😊
the seat boards are beautiful - nice window hangers too
you both are sounding very happy, looks really nice, good job
It appears to look as if it was original design as well as beautiful!
Beautiful work and great music all the way to the end. Thanks.
Hi Alidino, a hidden skill appears (Improve design) wow, and just as beautiful.
Its a joy to watch you complete your new home. Just something to consider - a wave breaking over the side deck could funnel a lot of water into the new "cups" you've created with the teak seats. You need to give that pressurized water a way out; I'd suggest not making the outboard seat support solid.
I LOVE the direction you've gone with the cockpit!
GREAT. People
GREAT video
GONNA. be a FABULOUS SHIP
❤👍👍🙏😇😘
All your new seat needs are some foam tubes on the pushpit rails so it's soft on your backs.
Very beautiful boat and nice workmanship!
That looks like a beautiful bass guitar. On your way to true beauty! ❤
You guys are true artists, inspiring me at all times.
These pieces of teak wood add a lot to the beauty of the boat.
Greetings from France
Beautiful episode and craftsmanship as always 🙏
That’s cool. Just like the wind and water the line are sweeping and flowing. Looks very nice.
Looks great! I would have probably rounded the sharp front corner on that seat board, to match the the radius where it meets the combing. I think this would flow better.
I love the curve of cockpit caps. Wonderful!
"things aren't symmetrical on boats" reminds me of the saying how housebuilders work to the closest 1/4 inch, furniture makers work to the closest 1/64 inch, boatbuilders work to the closest boat.
The teak shapes remind me of some ancient large stringed instrument that has been split down the middle and repurposed 😊❤
Fabulous, as always! Loving the sprightly vibe. 🎉🎉🎉
" eu já cansei de te chamar pra tu sair de casa..". Nada como uma Bossa Nova!! :)
Nice work Aladino . But , as a fellow woodworker . I would add a radius to the forward outboard point of the sitting platform . The way it's now could snag a line .
Nice cockpit seat, and if you have solar panel overhead for shade even better.
I noticed you blowing the saw dust from in front of the jigsaw blade. I also Have a Bosch saw and at times felt I might hyperventilate on long cuts. I finally cut a short piece of 1/4 inch tubing that runs from the cooling vents on the side of the saw. The little fan inside produces just enough air at the end of the tube to clear the saw dust allowing you to see your line. I wrote to Bosch about this alteration. Never heard back from them, and it appears all these years later they haven't fixed the issue.
The addition of the teak cap rail really looks nice and it changes the look of the area a lot. The extra lengths on the ends and the added seat at the aft end really sets off that area very well. Well done on the planning and execution for that project. Don’t skimp on the support under the new seats as you may end up with a guest that weighs a lot more than either of you sitting on that seat at some point in the future.
They look amazing.
Love the music on this episode!!!
Nice work Dino. I like how you allow the job to 'suggest' improvements as you go' Nice result.
It'd be lovely if I could work with proper wood again, I'm jealous. Makes me want to go back into joinery if the pay wasn't terrible.
I’m a part time / armchair sailor but DIY enthusiast. Thank you for the videos, and your passion shared. Greatly appreciated
A lot of careful planning and considered configuring, and an adept change of plans at the end. Et voila!! Teak bookends for the pilots that look like musical clefs, or sides of a violin. What could be more perfect for you two?
What a nice episode! As a Brazilian I was very moved by the Brazilian bossa nova music. I have been following your channel for a while and love it. A combination of fine craftsmanship, woodworking, naval knowledge and selection of good music. Thanks a lot!
Maya, when you have a chance, check out “O Barquinho”. I think you both will like it, especially if you translate the lyrics to see how the song match your lifestyle. There are different versions from different singers. Tell us which one you prefer. Cheers from Brazil!
well, the magic here is Aladino's wonderful craftsmanship and gentle spirit combined with Maya's exquisite film making skills. Love your use of music to make these episodes a joy to watch!! Thanks for sharing!☺
What a beautiful design and build. The fiddle comparison couldn't be more appropriate considering Maya's talent. Well done guys.
First thing that came to mind was using a stainless steel stanchion base and pipe to support the teak cap rail aft. Make it match the current stanchion pipes...just a thought. Beautiful craftsmanship and very functional design.
The far edge will be supported by the 90 deg teak insert from the bottom of the new cap rail to the gunwale
Man this is going to be such a beautiful boat. Really enjoy watching your craftsmanship.
Question I thought TEAK was a protected would and you couldn't have it in Canada new wood that is. Yes lovely wood and I've a few pieces of furniture from when I lived in Indonesia as a young boy. Part of my inheritance from when my parents passed. Aldino the art of building is so amazing and it is a thrill watching you use your skill and Miya's work and Music is amazing as well. You both make a great team.
Some people just have the sense for esthetics and in the same time the flexibility to adjust preplanning to the developing look. Great result! Well done. Until now i always found the coming a bit odd, and did not understand the shape at all. But now??? Looks, like it always had t be.
Wow! Aladino is creating an Aladino. Beautiful!
Amazing work as usual by Alidino. I know I will be in the minority, but I think you guys should finish the boat completely before splashing it. But I will keep watching either way, lol.
Perfect symmetry is boring to the eye then there is an old Japanese saying that "there is Perfection in imperfection." I believe that is absolutely true.
Aladino, you did an fantastic job and repurposed that into a comfy seat along with capping any water from becoming a geyser as you're sailing rough waters is excellent thinking. Way to go young man! Your thinking cap stays in gear constantly. Really a pleasure to see that in a true craftsman .
The best part of being able to do your own refit is that you can make it the way you want, and not have to compromise on the function or aesthetics of your visions! Love the seat. Leave an opening, aft going over the side, on the vertical support on the bullworks to let the water out.
Hats off to Brock
seats where a brilliant touch 👌
So exciting to see the vision turn into reality all these years later. This was part of the rebuild I was most interested in and it certainly delivers. Looking forward to many magical videos filmed here.
Glad you’re back… I look forward to your videos every Friday 🤗 No more getting sick you two!
Wow, so beautiful.
I really like the seats you made on the cockpit combing. It looks amazing, like it should have come that way when the boat was designed and built originally. Gorgeous work!
Truly, a thing of beauty! Visually reflective of a Stradivarius' body with the elongated, narrow f-holes (that's accurate terminology, no R rating required 😉). Fitting for Maya's musical mindset. Artistic meets aesthetic: A perfect sunset, Maya playing fiddle and singing, sitting on the teak combing.
What a stunningly beautiful work Aladino - it will be the most beautiful ship ever... Maya is of course happy with the result - all love and greetings from Denmark...
So glad you left those rear pad areas large to sit on. They will be a great spot to sit on passage in better weather.
I'm so happy to see your patient persistence (and vision) come to reality! Well done!
With the platforms at the ends of the teak coaming caps, instead of just a constant-width cap all the way aft, the cockpit looks like a musical instrument.
Those screws will annoy your behinds at all time. Or are they flush with the teak?
I hope, Aladino, that you speed up this process and get that great, intelligent and beautiful Lady of Yours out to see the world and in a happy state. Then everything else fades 😉
Thanks for the video 👍👍👍😁
You are doing a wonderful job but until It takes to the water it is a thing. When it is launched, SHE will become Magic Carpet. Well done and I look forward to her sailing.
That’s all done this week by Aladino. Hopefully Maia gave him help
When comfort is achieved in the concept application then perfection is approached !! 💐
Stunning...!!! ❤😊
Truly fascinated at you/paladinos knowledge of maritime bonding agents……that could be marketed!!!,
Amazing work!
Amazing job!
I really like this channel.
You will have a Beautiful home.
We love you guys. Cheers from landlocked Alberta! Aladino ever the artiste.
Love the curves - they look fabulous - many yachts would benefit from this feature.
Impressive, as always. That's going to be one beautiful boat when it's all done!
I have been walking by the boat in the past while hoping to see it ready to splash, great to see the progress. I see you have met Micheal (Mike), my neighbour, a super nice guy. Hoping to happen across you both on Magic Carpet out in the islands soon instead of in the yard. As always, thanks for sharing and fantastic work on the boat and the video creation (I have been making TH-cam videos lately and I have so much more respect for the amount of work and talent it takes, and I have so much to learn).
Well done 👍.
Good thinking!
Loved the Brazilian music 😉
Parlay Revivals Colin replaced all of his very corroded bronze thru holes with composite fittings made in New Zealand....have a look at today's episode
Love the episode, great to see you happy Maya, great work as always Dini
Beautiful!
