I am impressed with your designing, planning and execution of the construction. I like it when a person develops a plan and then follows it rather than building Willy Nelly and then scraping their work to start all over! You will be sailing in no time!
Yes, watching Sven is both comical and painful. I'm assuming that was your inference. This design, flawed as it is, has been much better to follow along with.
Man it’s been sometime since I last thought about boats and hobbies, then I remembered your little project and it’s crazy to see how far you’ve taken it. Love the series and the boat ur making captain
Awesome. As you landed 10000! Maybe you could give us a little design review of the parts of the boat you have already revealed? Its one of the most gratifying things to watch.
*sail off 🤔 Same here. But, 4 weeks ago: "I'll be back with a new video soon. July/August is my very busy season with my day job so sadly I have to deal with that first." And, 10 days ago: "Doing well thanks. I'll be back soon with some updates. Got busy with some other life stuff for a bit."
Great achievement, after many hours of working you almost complete the construction. Then is fairing and sanding repeated multiple times and painting. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
That handle turned out so well. I was so impressed when the cardboard came out, somehow I expected a fight. Instead it's a flawless victory ! Also congrats on \o/ 10K \o/
This hatch feels like the “special feature” at the heart of this boat. Your videos are improving as well. This one and the previous felt filled with accomplishments. Well done!
Congratulations Captain Perry! Really pleased for you reaching 10k subscribers. I've watched every episode with due respect for your hard work and determination 👏 🎉👍
Congratulations on hitting 10,000 subscribers. It's good that so many more people are watch your efforts. The boat really has come along a lot over the last few months and I'm looking forward to seeing the exterior paint job. Blondie Hasler was a tough guy and a real war time hero as well as being a great sailor. Have you read the book Blondie by Ewen Southby-Tailyour?
Hey bud!! I just ran into you at the gas station in Pecos, Tx. Cool boat, and thanks for the info about it. Goodluck on your move and i made sure to subscribe!! I will share your channel on my FB. It's definitely awesome to support someone with an original plan, great attitude, and watch them live out their goals.
I think in bad weather you’re going to get a significant amount of water through that reefing line eye. I hope you’ve made sure it has a way down to the bilges without causing too much trouble!
I'd hold judgements until the end. I could cork it with a rubber plug if a lot of water is coming on deck. There will also be a cleat on deck for this line, so it can be controlled from either place. I can test it out and always make adjustments.
@@ocean_capable_small_sailboat Fair enough, but when water is shooting into the doghouse is not the time to sort these things out. If you cross Oceans the question is when, not whether, green water will come across the deck in a storm you have to ride out. And how you are going to make ground up wind in bad weather is one of the things which needs careful thought sooner rather than later.
I think I would have routed it to the rear of the doghouse, round a pulley and in through the side, or even two pulleys and through the rear. There will be a lot of water pressure on the tube when the waves sweep the deck. All said, being able to fully control the sail from within is going to keep you dry inside much better than having to open the hatch.
Congrats on reaching your goal of 10,000 subscribers. Based on your outstanding boat work and videos, I thought you would achieve it earlier, but better late than never. The boat is really starting to look even better as you complete the hatch and ports, etc. I look forward to the boat going into the water and know it will complete the the water trials, etc. with ease due to your professional diligence and hard work.
Congratulations on 10k subscribers. Really enjoying your channel. With the doghouse fitted and hatch added she's really looking like a very nice vessel.
Ideally you close it before rain water pools in it. If there is some you just close slowly and it can spill out the bottom before swinging over the hatch hole.
Cpt Perry, you going to put in an internal latch on the hatch as well? Also, gasket for it? The assembly is robust for sure. As far as Nav and radio signals, you can also add antennas under a layer of glass. Just a thought. Great progress sir!
@ocean_capable_small_sailboat Next Level work and video compilation Perry- So that’s how it all comes together or closes up after all the discussions. Huh ! I’ve been trying to mentally picture it all in actuality or in “Perry” / human scale for quite some time... And now I’ve gotten to actually see it at 18:46 in this video, as you entered your boat, down the hatch entry, as you will from here on out, I suppose.
Did it feel like you’ve seen some virtual reality visions and mini movies of it working out many times previous when it finally came time that you actually got your opportunity to board your boat down the hatch and close it shut in reality for the first time? Or was it anything like you had first envisioned early on in your build? Lastly, are sure Jester and Col. blondie Hasler was your influence for this hatch entryway? As you once claimed to be a 90’s kid... I got thinking, perhaps the tunnel-way piping of Nintendo’s Mario Bro’s or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles manhole getaway adventures might have subliminally stuck with you beyond your childhood and into adulthood or something like that perhaps... (Mostly kidding) I guess from here it is onward, to all those little details, from here on out, until it’s ready to set sail, right?
I know you have the ventilation vent that will be waterproof even during rollover, but will that be enough? Your window/portholes are going to be sealed and non opening yes? It may get too hot inside there to sleep even with the doghouse open.
You're probably right, it's going to be hot as hell. I'd love to have a bunch of wide open hatches for maxim airflow but then you resign yourself to the risk of suddenly taking on a lot of water.
I really want to go on a long trip on a boat like yours, made by my own hands, I have a genuine doubt if you could make a video talking about it, what would it be like to take a shower and also to use the bathroom (to poop) on these small boats that don't necessarily have a bathroom, thank you very much.
Thank you for this video. In case you would'nt know it, Yann Quenet and his "Baluchon" have now left Brittany, and they started their second " Round the World Tour".🙂
Ingenious, to be sure. But getting up on top of the cabin to insert oneself does not strike me as a safe approach. I know Perry's intention is to mostly remain inside, thus the simplicity of the rig. The 580 class design (19' glassed ply sloops racing across the Atlantic right now) use an aft faced, vertical hatch that's much safer in use...in my view at least.
@@ocean_capable_small_sailboat You will have to show a closeup on how the hatch hinge works. If it has a double hitch to lift upward before it hinges open, I'd be worried if the hinge ever malfunctioned or was damaged you'd be locked inside.
Hi Perry ... you OK? It's been three months since the last update -- you didn't finish the boat and sail away without letting us see the final product did you!?! We need an update if not an episode -- if you want to keep growing your subscribers, they need content to watch!!! I hope all is well.
Initially no. I did consider it. But I'll wait until I've sailed her a bit and see if it's really wanted, then one can be added in the future if so. I bet in reality the hatch will usually be open for fresh air.
@@dboboc it's the journey and not the destination. I bought 20 acres in 2010 and started hand planting trees around a 5 acre lake. My friends asked why. I said I wanted to have woods around the lake. I hand planted 3,000 trees 6 inches tall every year since. My friends said I'd be dead before I have my woods. I now have 45,000 trees (that lived, many did not) and some are 25 feet tall. I'm still planting. I enjoyed the all the effort, even in 100 degrees, planting just as much as I enjoy the beauty and wildlife the trees have brought.

I've sailed before with no external antenna and I don't feel it's necessary. The units can send and receive their signal fine though the boat. If you watch my videos you'll see I'm pretty much always in a mask when it's needed.
@@ocean_capable_small_sailboat Exactamente. Ahora mismo en mi teléfono y dentro de casa recibo la señal de cuatro constelaciones de satélites: GPS, Glonass, Galileo y Osa Mayor
A lot of work but it turned out great. Much cooler then the typical square hatch.
Amazing....Lewmar has great hatches too..proven and tested.... Hats of for the hard work..
Off the shelf hatches have disadvantages, and I've seen them leak at sea, even Lewmar. This design makes it more difficult for water to get in.
It would be rad to see you post again!!!
I am impressed with your designing, planning and execution of the construction. I like it when a person develops a plan and then follows it rather than building Willy Nelly and then scraping their work to start all over! You will be sailing in no time!
Sven Yrnind did that recently, but he's an experienced sailor and boat builder legend.
Yes, watching Sven is both comical and painful. I'm assuming that was your inference. This design, flawed as it is, has been much better to follow along with.
Congratulations to good work
Glad that you now have many subscribers. More will follow
Cap'n, it's been quite a while since this video. Have there been any other? Have I missed something? I'm anxiously waiting to see her afloat.
I'm sorry! Work will continue and there will be a new video. Thanks for being so patient.
Hi captain, everything ok with you and your family? Community is getting worried. Cheers from Germany👍
Yes, sorry, I got behind but I'll put out a video soon.

Increíble work. Amazing. You are a great source of inspiration, as Yann. Hope to see one day Baluchon and your fabulous boat side by side...
I would love to meet him, especially if we can get the boats together.
Instead of a nut consider a cap screw nut that is self locking. Rough things can cause injury when you are getting bounced around.
Noticed there are 10k + subs. Congrats!!

Looks good and that hatch seems plenty strong. Congrats on the 10k
I hope that all is well with Perry as I haven’t seen any posts since June and I have been following him since the start.
Sorry, thanks for checking in, I will be back soon.
Great achievement, after many hours of working you almost complete the construction. Then is fairing and sanding repeated multiple times and painting.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you. Hopefully fairing and sanding just once. No need to look like a new car finish.
That handle turned out so well. I was so impressed when the cardboard came out, somehow I expected a fight. Instead it's a flawless victory !
Also congrats on \o/ 10K \o/
Perfect! I love that you took the time and care to design and build your own hatch. Unique, strong, and very cool.

@@markthomasson5077 if you route it to the rear of the doghouse, what's preventing a following wave crashing from behind and in?
Interested to see what is planned to stop water coming into the cabin through that bow line opening.
Hope you post again... I wanna try this and need your vids lol
Thank you, I will!
Beautiful work!!!
Congratulations!!
Happy to be part of that 10K, Cap'n. You'd be surprised to see how quickly 20 and 30K would come when you wet that keel.
Truly, I joy to behold! I particularly loved the squeaking foam and the prybar. What a fantastic moment.
Me too! Thanks Tom.
Nice work! Need an updated video 😊
Thanks, next one is coming. It's hard to do much in the current heat though 🥵.

Well done on your 10K, and good job on the hatch, i wont argue that it is better than a plywood one ;-)

WOW ! really coming on now
It's coming along quite nicely. Well done, the hatch has everything I would want
Man, this is really looking quite impressive. My hats off to you.
Thanks a lot!
Looks like if it is raining the cover will catch rain and pour it in the hatch when you close it.
Ideally you close it before rain water pools in it. If there is some you just close slowly and it can spill out the bottom before swinging over the hatch hole.
We would love an “update”

Good work as usual. Can't wait to see it hit the waters. Cheers from Mauritius.
Oh mate so good :) can’t wait till you sailing over here across the pond to Europe:)))

The doghouse design looks fine, except the main hatch i found difficult access on rough sea
With repetition, entry and exit become second nature.

Is the hatch going to get a dead light in the top?
Essential for looking up at the sail?
Initially no. I did consider it. But I'll wait until I've sailed her a bit and see if it's really wanted, then one can be added in the future if so. I bet in reality the hatch will usually be open for fresh air.
You can also dissolve most styrofoam with a very small amount of gas.
Pretty messy though. Much more pleasant to just pop it out if you can.
@@ocean_capable_small_sailboat true!
If the lines go inside arn't you introducing moisture to the inside of the boat?
