I am glad that You Tube prompted your video as it is just the type that I like to see! Your calm narration and good videography makes for interesting, informative and entertaining viewing, and your choice of soundtrack adds to one's enjoyment! I particularly like your vessel, and an really pleased to see that you are investing the huge amount of labour, materials and finance needed to bring her back to a seaworthy condition. I shall enjoy catching up on your video archive and am pleased to subscribe to your channel. Whilst I usually can't stand videos which contain sponsored promotions, I wholeheartedly support sponsored promotions of materials used in the actual project and which may be of interest to viewers like myself, which this particular product is!
I cannot believe the amount of effort you have put into this project. I have enjoyed each and every episode from the very beginning including the interesting and humorous commentary to the occasional music. I hope that in a new future episode you include a celebratory gathering of friends showing us all how much fun you will be having!
This is the best bost restoration on you tube..its memorizing to watch..you will end up with a boat better then it left the factory..I love your sarcastic humor ..its hard to believe the amount of work that has gone on in this restoration..your knowledge is incredible very few people could take on a project this huge ..I look forward to all of your videos..you make my day.
I am beyond impressed with the amount you have learned through this project, I love that you not afraid to show your mistakes or even that your not a boat builder. This channel will give many people who want to do this that extra push because they can relate to not knowing a whole lot. All you need is the will to do it and the rest comes with trial and error. Thank you for documenting these.
I can only say, I am extremely impressed at you attention to detail on this quest. Your insulation/ soundproofing was a masterclass on its own. You have turned this collection of issues into a practical, functional and beautiful craft, truly worthy of a proud captain. I can’t wait for splash day and subsequent adventures. Congratulations on your hard work.
You have brought us an amazing project brilliantly done. This 'shitty' boat is outstanding in its perfection because of your precision and dedication. Congratulations for turning a 'rust bucket' into a prime example of craftsmanship!
I found you recently and love your work and videos. I’m addicted to all forms of boat restoration on TH-cam, you are among the best in my view. As for the suggestive pattern on the hull, it’s detail looks intact and correct from someone from a French speaking country! All the best on the project
You've done an amazing amount of work...congratulations !!! With the sound insulation, you might want to tape all the seams with metallic air conditioning duct tape to make it a continuous surface. Noise can transfer through the small seams and reduce the effectiveness of the sound barrier.
I'm not jealous, I know what work you are doing. I'm staggered at the thickness of the various fillers and paints. I just finisher repainting my 16 year old yachts deck, third time, I only have 4-5mm layer.
You are doing a great job! Your boat has now become your new lover! When you are not with her you are thinking about her! That what happens with a boat rebuild!!!!
Next time I start a project and then want to quit because it gets too hard, i’m gonna turn on your videos for inspiration. Man, I am impressed with your dedication to this project.
I feel a lot better about my boat after seeing the amount of work this boat requires . You are fearless and makes me want to sort my boat out ASAP . You are an inspiration .
Great Video and your presentation was exceptional. Thanks from America. Seems all countries have boat yards and people that love living on the water. May we all share that love along with Peace !!!
with those adhesive insulation sheets, you may wish to consider using a roller to really press the whole sheet onto the wall, to ensure a really good adhesion!

Sometimes you have to make choices that may not be right but are right for you, You have taken on a great responsibility that most would walk away from, keep up the good work, forever forward. Hello from Milford Ct. USA
Well Done, This is going to make a huge difference with heat and cold as well as noise reduction. It looks like an amazing product and you did a very good job installing it. Very nice!
I love the narration over the time lapse... I just caught these in the recommended column and started with this one. I find myself wishing we knew what it looked like inside... the layout... and I wanted some idea of what you want it to look like when you are done. You've probably done all that in earlier videos so I guess I have some uploads to check out.
Your new stylistic editing and running commentary is increasing in humor and overall entertainment value! Well done! :)) I came for the project. I subscribed for the creative videos!
I look forward to these videos every week now. Love the editing, humor, commentary, occasional music and the boat! I'd donate if I didn't just buy my own first boat, lol
Probably the best video so far in this series. I laughed my A-- off at your commentary while you were grinding the hull, too funny. To date, what you have done with this project is truly impressive and I cannot wait to see the boat in the water! Great work as always. One suggestion, you should introduce yourself in your opening so we can all relate to you. I've been watching you do your thing for months now and I still don't know your name!
I just bought that exact same sander to sand my boat. I attached my shop vacuum to the exhaust tube on the end and I ended up with virtually no dust to clean up. Just a little food for thought.
That was a lot of work. There seems to be an excessive amount of filler in some places. You are doing a great job. I can’t wait to see it in the water. Edit: the shape of the one hole in the paint looked to me like a “hawk sitting on a branch”
I've seen waaaaay worse. At least the hull is steel! I can't believe how thick the paint is! Once you get her sandblasted, she's going to drop a couple tons displacement :D
If it’s temporary why not leave it alone until you can properly script the hull. You also have an enormous amount of what we call “bondo ” on that boat. It does not seem environmentally wise to grinding the filler off. I would recommend a chipping gun and/or needle scaler to remove it without sending copious amounts of non bio-degradable dust in the air.
What you're grinding away is "fairing compound" Used to "fair" the hull... Or give it the final shape and smooth. Fairing compound is much different then just normal "filler compound" Investigate this and discuss it with your local marine supplier... From the looks of the trapped water you'll more then likely be removing all and starting from a bare hull.... When it comes time to do this find a local that has some experience with this. There's is a trick and process that will help a lot with your final result... You'll need a yard that offers blasting service. Looking good. Keep it up!👍
Hopefully this advice is followed. It would be better to save up money and have this done by someone that has done it a thousand times and has all the right tools. Patching the bad areas until they have a chance to get this done is a good idea.
Wow, I cannot believe how much Bondo is underneath that paint. Btw if you want a tip to help you out as you go forward, here is one for you. Feather back those edges completely, where you have removed Bondo feather back the edges all the way. The purpose of this! so you will have the maximum amount of surface area to help secure the new Bondo to the surface of the boat. Hope this helps you out, the boat restoration is coming along great by the looks of things. Keep the videos coming bud. cheers ...
Ultimately, a strip and repaint would be best but understand that's not possible where you are. The thickness of the bog on the hull is incredible, this would add so much weight, also the bog being hydroscopic is where all your problems are coming from with the blisters.

Great work and I'm glad so many chipped in to help you along. More channels should follow your lead. A lot people making a small contribution can make a big difference to a project. I hope that is what happened to you - given there were too many names to give us all a mention, I am assuming that was the case. Looking forward to the next video. Thank you.
Get a bigger grinder when you work on the outside paintwork, it will make a massive difference with the amount of work you will have sorting out the paint.
Excellent job, I am very impressed with the work in the engine room and such a good product you used. I am looking forward to seeing it actually float. good luck and stay safe.
You need to be inlove with what you are doing for take a task of this size. And with the boat, of course. Congrats for your courage. Keep it on ! Just only wait to see this boat in water ....
For me it’s a perfect way to handle patching the outside of the metal hull, they’ve been doing car bodies exactly like that for as long as I can remember (60years), except yours is on a bigger scale, anyway, think of the positive, it will help with the ballast 😂😂 great job, take care my friend, 👍😃
I recommend you use heating duct work metal lined tape to tape your seams and around the pipes and areas where there are seams, it will make a difference in sound and reduce speed of firespread. If you have any Fire and it gets into those seams and behind the insulation it will burn hot and become very toxic! It would be money well worth spent if for a sad reason it catches on fire in the middle of the water sway from land. It could also reduce the fire getting oxygen! You could also place a decent size CO2 bottle for Fire protection and/or use a fire grenade placed in there in case of fire! I am a Former Fire Chief and Paramedic and they have and will continue to save lives. Out on the water you are your own fire department for a Emergency due to the delay in getting help! Keep up the great work 👍!
It is really very nice and satisfying to see how, despite a lot of work and that not always everything is so easy, you still give everything to achieve your goal. I wish you all the best for the future, and you really deserve that beautiful old boat. And always a hand's breadth of water under the keel!
It has been really good entertaining fun watching you rebuild this boat. Seeing the damage it had and especially how much of it was hidden would have been daunting to most people but you just tackled each job as it came up. Your ingenuity and coming up with ways to deal with it is just inspirational
Great to watch just like to say be carful around the exhaust might. You want to have it tested for asbestos could be very dangerous. Look forward to the next episode.
A friend of mine had a boat very similar to yours many years back. I think it was a few feet longer, but not much. He bought it in the Netherlands and we brought it over to the UK. It was a memorable trip in November. We took it from Neuport, down the canal to Dunkirk. (Before the Dunkirk port re-build). We then took it through the ship lock next to a massive cargo boat, and across the channel, chasing the ferry. Okay, so they beat us to Dover. But then, we only had a 9-knot hull and it was in the back end of a force 4. We then had a sunny trip around the coast and up the Thames to its new home. I wonder what happened to the boat? That was in the early nineties and I have lost track of the owner.
Looking very good, The soundproofing is a good quality item When you can see the boat better it’s got good lines and nice look, Keep up the good work But have fun👍👍
wow that's a lot of feller in some places hope the boat underneath is ok. nice to see it properly its a nice boat even if needs some TLC keep up the hard work and you will get there

Sometimes TH-cam recommendations actually hit the mark... What an interesting project and well presented.
I'm not jealous, I know what work you are doing. I'm staggered at the thickness of the various fillers and paints. I just finisher repainting my 16 year old yachts deck, third time, I only have 4-5mm layer.
You are doing a great job! Your boat has now become your new lover! When you are not with her you are thinking about her! That what happens with a boat rebuild!!!!
You are getting to know everything about your boat. Every centimeter of it.
Next time I start a project and then want to quit because it gets too hard, i’m gonna turn on your videos for inspiration. Man, I am impressed with your dedication to this project.
I feel a lot better about my boat after seeing the amount of work this boat requires . You are fearless and makes me want to sort my boat out ASAP . You are an inspiration .

Cockhull seems like a fitting name. 😀 You’re doing great work. Thanks for letting us follow along.
the word has many meanings when it is used in a personal sentence... damn a person. he is a brave person
Love the reasoning behind the name change 🤣👌🏼 looking forward to following this build.
with those adhesive insulation sheets, you may wish to consider using a roller to really press the whole sheet onto the wall, to ensure a really good adhesion!

Hello from Milford Ct. USA
Interesting and the music was wonderful. I'm a sailor who used to play the violin. Good luck with your ongoing project. It looks good so far.
Well Done, This is going to make a huge difference with heat and cold as well as noise reduction. It looks like an amazing product and you did a very good job installing it. Very nice!
This has to be the funniest episode you have done yet. It cheered me up after a bad day. Thank you from the uk 🇬🇧
I cannot believe I watched this guy cut, peel and paste for 19 minutes...was totally satisfying..what is my life coming to?
I love the lines of your boat. Doing a great job, can’t wait to see it in the water.
HAND ROLLERS DOES MAGIC FOR APPLYING THIS PROPERLY.
CARRY ON.
I love the narration over the time lapse... I just caught these in the recommended column and started with this one.

You've probably done all that in earlier videos so I guess I have some uploads to check out.
Your new stylistic editing and running commentary is increasing in humor and overall entertainment value! Well done! :))
I came for the project. I subscribed for the creative videos!
You said not to comment on the shape of the damage of your patches. But I think you should be changing the boat name to CakaDik
I look forward to these videos every week now. Love the editing, humor, commentary, occasional music and the boat! I'd donate if I didn't just buy my own first boat, lol
The first boating video´s with good music
Probably the best video so far in this series. I laughed my A-- off at your commentary while you were grinding the hull, too funny. To date, what you have done with this project is truly impressive and I cannot wait to see the boat in the water! Great work as always.

His first name is My.
@@eltsennestle998 LMAO!
Have to say for a boat that’s not being sand blasted, you’re doing a good job with what you’ve got.
20 year boat builder here, great job.... 👏
I concur with Michael Franz. Very educational and enjoyable. Thanks.
You have a good friend, him letting you use his van.
You have the best background music on TH-cam. Beautiful!
Wow. I’ve enjoyed this series so much. Can’t to see her in the water
Very good, you impress. Looking forward to the next video.
Very nice job installing the insulation on the walls, they look great!
It has been a mammoth undertaking and your efforts are amazing - well done
It's all starting to pay off, great work can not wait to see it on the water.
Love the music. Strangely fits so well with the project. A mixture of joy and tragedy!!
The insulation looks great make the engine room look so clean
your neighbours will be so happy when they come to collect their nice clean boats and discover 5mm of grinding dust over everything.
I just bought that exact same sander to sand my boat. I attached my shop vacuum to the exhaust tube on the end and I ended up with virtually no dust to clean up. Just a little food for thought.
That was a lot of work. There seems to be an excessive amount of filler in some places. You are doing a great job. I can’t wait to see it in the water.
Edit: the shape of the one hole in the paint looked to me like a “hawk sitting on a branch”
The amount of fill is pretty normal for a steel, aluminium or concrete pleasure boat.
I've seen waaaaay worse. At least the hull is steel!
I can't believe how thick the paint is! Once you get her sandblasted, she's going to drop a couple tons displacement :D
I hope not. Next thing you know he'll have to rip open the bilge floor... again... and then pull out all that ballast or she'll sink.
If it’s temporary why not leave it alone until you can properly script the hull. You also have an enormous amount of what we call “bondo ” on that boat. It does not seem environmentally wise to grinding the filler off. I would recommend a chipping gun and/or needle scaler to remove it without sending copious amounts of non bio-degradable dust in the air.

It's temporary fix, but your points are valid nonetheless.
Opera will ruin anything. Great video. Editing and superb commentary.

Looks like you are going BALLS DEEP Into
this build.
Ultimately, a strip and repaint would be best but understand that's not possible where you are. The thickness of the bog on the hull is incredible, this would add so much weight, also the bog being hydroscopic is where all your problems are coming from with the blisters.
Can I recommend that you let sealant dry hard and trim and scrape afterwards. Less chemical cleaner and wasted cloths.
the commentary just keeps getting better

Came for the boat. Stayed for the personality, great video man
For all the spaces that are cut to big or just hard to reach you can get sound deadening paste to trawl in.

Wow what a difference a from an ugly duckling to a Swan nice work loved watching you transform her
Love the Yacht and the music!
An amazing project.
You've done so much.
Excellent job, I am very impressed with the work in the engine room and such a good product you used. I am looking forward to seeing it actually float. good luck and stay safe.
So excited.....can't wait to see it sailed... And also later..... Full time lapse...
I think you are doing a great job. You sir have a lot of skill
Well I think you have done a wonderful job on your boat, quite fantastic and hard work. Happy sailing.
You need to be inlove with what you are doing for take a task of this size. And with the boat, of course.
Congrats for your courage. Keep it on ! Just only wait to see this boat in water ....
Just found your channel. Ive always wanted to restore an old boat.💸 Great job! Enjoying your sense of humor.
For me it’s a perfect way to handle patching the outside of the metal hull, they’ve been doing car bodies exactly like that for as long as I can remember (60years), except yours is on a bigger scale, anyway, think of the positive, it will help with the ballast 😂😂 great job, take care my friend, 👍😃
Oh my... you have 1 hellava’ sense of Humor!!!!😂😂😎☮️❤️👍🏻👍🏻
You should form a collaboration of these builds with other ship owners, I really enjoy your videos and would like to see them continue.
Je suis fan de ta chaine. C'est super inspirant ce que tu fais. Bravci. Bravo-merci.
I recommend you use heating duct work metal lined tape to tape your seams and around the pipes and areas where there are seams, it will make a difference in sound and reduce speed of firespread.

Seeing the damage it had and especially how much of it was hidden would have been daunting to most people but you just tackled each job as it came up. Your ingenuity and coming up with ways to deal with it is just inspirational
The beautiful part about a steel boat is that you can just cut out any temporary fixes and weld them up again.
man cant wait to see the final result, ive been following this channel from it 1st video
A nice isolation product you found there. Very interesting.
Wow that's one hell of a first boat
my next project is a dutch Doerak 700 also steel motoryacht, learning from you will make a big difference
1 week left until floating!?! How exciting for you! Congrats. Looking forwards to the next epidode of exterior patching. Good luck freind
Great job Swede, I don't know your name so we'll go with that. Looking forward to seeing you sailing.
Super bravo for this video, your courage, the thoroughness of your work .... your boat will be very pretty ... !! Big hello from France, Vincent
What a lot of work, you're doing a great job - hopefully you'll feather out those holes, otherwise you'll have problems sooner rather than later....
Great job.
The editing of the videos is spot, on.
Really digging the whole build.
Great to watch just like to say be carful around the exhaust might. You want to have it tested for asbestos could be very dangerous. Look forward to the next episode.
Amazing work, sir!! (Your name escapes me, lol) I cannot believe how far you have come this year!! Keep it up!
A friend of mine had a boat very similar to yours many years back. I think it was a few feet longer, but not much. He bought it in the Netherlands and we brought it over to the UK.

looking forward too your next postings. thanks for the view.
Looking very good, The soundproofing is a good quality item
When you can see the boat better it’s got good lines and nice look,
Keep up the good work But have fun👍👍
This has been an enjoyable restoration to watch.
wow that's a lot of feller in some places hope the boat underneath is ok. nice to see it properly its a nice boat even if needs some TLC keep up the hard work and you will get there
Nice engine room nice and big easy to work around thats great 👍
You’re music choices are excellent ♥️
I'm enjoying your vidios your doing a great job , can't wait for next week , take care
