OLD SAILORS GET SHIT DONE T-SHIRTS ARE STILL AVAILABLE!! www.bonfire.com/abandoncomfort/
Abandon Comfort order placed!
CLReeves really appreciate the support!
Glad to help AND get a sweet AC shirt! You guys most definitely rock!
Hoodie and T-shirt arrived today, look sharp.
Got mine a day ago. Honestly one of the best channel tee shirt designs ever!
Don't be discouraged guys! You are an encouragement to your viewers and patrons. Soon you will be cruising and fully enjoying the fruits of this labor!
You guy's are living the live. I try not to be envious of other's, but man you not only get to wake up water side, but you get to wake up next to a gorgeous woman. One day I will have this, in due time.
I have NEVER seen a couple of folks working as hard and as happily as you two! You are astonishing, a credit to yourselves and wonderfully engaging. I am so impressed. Nicholas
I think Kelsey works harder.......
I admire your energy and perseverance. Upping the count to 860 screws total for this week.
You're moving in the right direction Martin!
You kids are simply amazing! Your patience is unbelievable, but all of these efforts will pay off with a beautifully repaired decking! Worth all of your efforts? If thinks so then it is!
When it rains it pours! That deck is looking so good though. You kids are hard workers. I love Roo moving from spot to spot in the time lapse. Too Cute!
WOW. That's a lot of work, but I'm sure the result will be worth it in the end. Surely something to be proud of for sure!
What a huge job. Can't wait to see the final result.
You are doing a fantastic job - well done. I think you need to take those tracks up and sort out the sealing of it to prevent future troubles.
You made a great job
On my boat i have replaced the teak deck with green plastic golf matt, Now my dog feels at home when he goes for a whiz ;)
You two are gettin it done! Nice Job! Just maintain, there is a fantastic end to this.
Coming up fantastic! Wouldn't mind seeing detail ( in normal time in other words) on how you cut to the templates and what's the process for bedding down the synthetic teak.
You guys have done a mountain of work. It will be worth it. Love the videos.
have u guys considered over drilling you holes for the track bolts and filling them with thickened epoxy, then redrilling them for further protection of the core....it looks like that would be your last opportunity for water intrusion to the core, great vids, six about all the rain, but that’s the price you pay for living in paradise.......sail on.....
Enormous work, amazing workers! 👍🏻 almost done ⛵️
Very impressed by your hard work, its looking great, keep it up. 1375 screws.
Fantastic progress.
The deck looks great!
I love your videos....
Go Big boys... go big...
Thanks for all.
Remind me to never buy a boat with teak decks. Beautiful, but dang. Kelsey looks EXHAUSTED by day 17.
I seal the core off in those holes with west system epoxy when I renew the butyl on the deck hardware. This way if for whatever reason it isn't sealed, the water runs through not into the core.
It will leak in the future no matter what, so nice to never worry about the core being exposed. I basically cut/grind/file back the core from within the existing hardware mounting holes (its normally soft or gone already where deck hardware is mounted) a little bit and just pump a shape of epoxy int the hole then redrill through the epoxy. This requires some kind of structurally sound filler (expands contracts similar to the deck this way) but I can't remember what options I used in past for filler mixed with the epoxy.
You also would be shocked, absolutely shocked, at the strength of delaminated fiberglass with completely rotten (hollow) core... usually unless you're on a racing boat you can just avoid the issues that result from core damage anyway. Its when we push her too hard that the problems evolve with core rot and bad rigs turning into huge problems.
Great insights, thank you for sharing!!
2100 screws total. Your perseverance is impressive. The deck leaks from the track holes are so sad/funny! But for folks that have camped across America in a pup tent I guess you can handle it! Clearly there are no free rides for a teak deck! Cheers Warren.
Looking at it now I'd have to say at least 1350 screws.... and you guys are doing an awesome job.... keep it up... love your videos!
Very impressive. I would never have the patience.
832 you two are so impressive. Thanks for posting. Sorry to see that the evening off turned into leaky deal.
Keep up the good work! I’m tired just watching :) 2674 screws!! Can’t wait to see you guys set sail!
Great video, ah, the trials and tribulations of a boat!
Looks great guys!
Nice job kids. Not sure at my age I would have tackled all that. Very impressed! PEACE OUT! Guessing 1,300 screws
Us neither! We feel we've both aged over this past month 100x faster than usual. Can't imagine waiting till 70 years old being actually retired and doing this.
If someone had to wait til 70 to retire, they did a whole lot of something wrong. I'm wrapping up 30 years at age 55 with plenty of money (80% of my income for life and a big pile of cash as a loyalty bonus) to buy the boat I need and still be comfortable. That's a civil servant's pay. I had no specific skills and a 4 year useless BA. So if anyone really wanted to apply themselves, there's no reason to retire at an old age. Doing it while you're young is great, but it's not the definitive way to go. There's pros and cons to both our situations.
912 Screws I like to learn a little something whenever I watch a sailing video. Good Job
I m guessing 1438. Screws. Stay safe guys. Awesome content⛵
A lot of hard work but it will surely pay off in the end. Congratulations on how its turning out. Looks great. I've been down in the Keys the past 2 weekends (live in Miami) and I've seen what you mean about all the work that's going on down there. A lot of places I used to enjoy have closed for good. It's sad. Loving this channel! My new guess is 5525 screws.
Totally going to be worth all the hard work! And knowing your boat top to bottom will be a huge advantage!
I'm guessing 1003 screws 😝
Great job, guys! Love watching your videos. keep them coming !
Looks like a well done job! 6028 screws.
really great work guys! I am looking forward to see how the new deck looks like! best. Alberto
That deck is gonna be nice! Awesome video guys!! Screws: 3,346 😍⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I'm sticking with 2138, Great job you two.
Brilliant guys 👍loving this,follow your dreams,doing a great job and good luck.
Both got good attitude and that is 95% of the job.I hope Magnus from hallberg rassy
is watching this.If I win the lotto I'm going to order a new HR 57🌍🍻
1,840 Thanks for the chance to win.... Good Luck on the boat projects.
Love you guys so much! Your guys awesome and huge inspiration 🤙🏼 love the videos. Kelsey you did amazing on the templetes of the deck and both of you are such hard workers! My second guess has to 1,755 screws 😬 hopefully that’s a good guess! Really excited to see more videos and many adventures to come!🌬 🌊⛵️🌊🌬🏝
Now I what you mean by "Abandon Comfort"
OldMan Mick this is just the beginning. We have some big things planned that'll definitely scream Abandon Comfort 🙂
I was hoping you would sell those tee shirts. Just ordered mine. Great job on your deck work too.
You guys should try doing a daily vlog. Love the content!
Good evening , Looks like you're making some good progress . The new stuff looks great . ( how long should that last , what kind of warranty/guarantee is on it )
Was half expecting to see Roo deciding to play a game of keep-away with some of the pieces , but looks like he wasn't real interested . I think that guy is going to be a very fulfilling part of your happy times , in the years and travels to come .
I do believe that the screw jar now contains 1737 screws .
Looking forward to seeing the finished product . Enjoy
Bob from Calgary
1272 screws. Great videos!
You did a good job replacing the teak.
2304 screws! Great video!
Stay with it guys. I'm glad to see you making progress, the work will be worth the rewards.
John Young thanks! Looking forward to seeing you guys in the Bahamas!!
3500 screws
love the dog - An Australian sheperd
congrats on your hard work ......... I want to add my guess to the number of screws total in the jar as 1,211 cheers John T
You guys have so earned the beautiful new deck you will have, love and be proud of for so many years. My only complaint is not enough of Roo in this episode :-P As for my guess on the screws... for some reason I did not take into account the teak in the cockpit so I will revise my guess to 2,225.
Great job very courageous of you! I’m guessing 2145 screws
Love your channel keep it up 1555 screws
Hi Guys,
Good Video, I do have one small remark, I work in the composite industry and would higly recomend using a metal (blunt) object for the "tap testing" plactic ends of screwdrivers for instance will not allways produce a reliable outcome when it comes to disbond (core to skin) or delamition (ply to ply) the back end of a screw bit works super (tip!) keep up the good work!
And euhm... I'm going for ..... euhm 873 screws :)
Cheers! Joost
450 screws good job guys!
Dante's 10th circle of hell..... teak deck removal on a boat.
I admire you guys. Not sure my marriage would survive this!! If you find yourselves not far from nc we’d love to host (no labor) on our Galeon 66 Fly. Good luck!
Good job guys. Guess for screws is 763...
788 SCREWS!!! WHAT A BEAST
872 screws Great video
You guys are working really hard. 1157 screws
2199 screws. Ryan advice from an old man, I knew I had met the "right one" when she and I were redoing a kitchen, I am inside laying tile, she was outside in sub zero temps running a wet tile saw, so cold the water in the basin was slush. She never complained once. I think you may have found a similar one, don't let her go!
Another great video! My guess is 1026 screws... My fingers are crossed
I think there is 2700 screws in your jar! And the teak looks great!
Looking fantastic.... the isn’t just for looks, surely it must be better to walk on than standard non slip.??
Like I’ve said before, our boats are related and on my Najad 343 I’d like to do the same. So I’d be well interested to know more for you two. Like did you glue the individual strips together with special glue, what bedding compound was it, maybe you’ll get to the cost later... is Dek-king the same as tek dek .. seem flexible sideways too as it followed the shape of your deck around..
However, brilliant job and great vid as always..!
Warren
Most dry chemical fire extinguishers are typically ammonium phosphate. Not very toxic, but very fine particulates, so you should still wear your respirators when cleaning it up, and it will likely just blow right through the filters on a standard shop vacuum. You'll either need a HEPA vacuum or make sure the shop vacuum is exhausting outside.
Hope I'm helping and not just annoying. You should be able to start your own redecking business now.
5280 screws.
Enjoyable!
1326 screws.
Time lapse is great. 1832 screws
One million and one screws...
Rue is, clearly, the brains and muscle on the operation... : P Ya'll are great - incredible team work : ) ...!
Kids a slave driver! Has us pulling 16 hour days with no pay!
Great work progress! I am impressed with your determination and detailing of a complex project! Great job!, looks good.
Why not covered the deck with +/- 160 grams glass and epoxy before laying the teak, to be shure it is watertight?
Love following along with all y’all’s adventures!! Keep up the great work. & to throw out a guess for the screws...2277 🤘🏻🔩
Question I have just bought a 30' S2 9.2A Sailboat for $5.00 It has a soft spot in the sole in front of the sink. Sailed it all weekend on Lake Michigan handled great and was wondering what your opinion is of taking it to the ocean or is it to small?
Great work and 2173 screws
I found your channel by complete accident so glad i did. And i just binged watched all your content. Sailing the seas wow what a dream thing to do.
Always been a fan of minimalist lifestyle. I was looking at rural property here in Australia. Now looking at boats.
Awesome!! Please keep us posted on your adventure & let us know if we can help in any way :)
woohoo! Getting closer. 1337! is our guess. :P
Hi, guys going on 3 weeks? nothing new on the boat?
Be back this Thurs. at 10pm EST - see you then!
I LOVE time lapse demolition!!
Then you'll love 27 & 28!!!
Abandon Comfort lol, can’t wait! Also loving #teakonaroll!
Hahaha, I'll have 2 teak rolls and 1 California roll please.
Nothing like a good screw or even 1089 of them?
nicee job 3225 screws
Are you doing anymore Vlogs?
Where are you guys? Havent heard from you in a few weeks. Hope all is well
Should we send out the search parties? I hope all is well, looking forward to an update. :)
Be back this Thurs. at 10pm EST - see you then!
Think paint and anti slip would be the order of the day can't see that plastic deck improving the value of the boat a leak free deck would. Have I feel that said loving your journey boat owners have to. Do this to make it reality x
2381 screws, good job
My guess is 2,725 screws.
Teak is a lot of work. Synthetic teak might be a lot less, but it still seems to be a water trap. I find a fiberglass deck with non-skid simplifies things. I don't know how hot that synthetic teak gets, but other synthetic deck materials get HOT.
didn't see Last weeks episode until I saw this one just want to my sure my guess is recorded 975 screws
Nice
438 screws....?
547 screws for the win
874 scews i hope Im close :)
For sealing your deck guys... i am nor sure if resin without any filler is good for this repair you’ve done... now its too late and I hope it works. Anyhow I got lots of rubber glue under this plastic deck...
i am wood lover but I know it is easier and chipper to get plastick teak...
All the best! Hope it will work for you guys!
PS. Last episode you said you would buy soething smaller then your present boat. Nope !!! This is already small boat to live if you planing for cruising...
Cheers!
I'm guessing 1,789.337 screws
I think it has 9,457 screws.
I am sure it will look awesome, but why not just go to a product like kiwigrip?
If she wasn't an HR we would've kept it simple and done non-skid. We've been told countless times that no teak on a Rassy kills the value of her so we went with the next best thing, synthetic teak.
Guys I am SO appreciative of your efforts...it is clearly a labor of love, and you're killing it. But she's yours now, there is no 'value' other than your love of her and her ability to keep you safe. Be well...keep the water out...keep the dag and each other safe..and go. I won't care what your deck looks like in Georgetown...I will care that you are in Georgetown.
You are correct. Rassy's have a certain elegance that must be maintained or it's just another old boat. The teak is an intregal part of the HR aesthetic, otherwise you should have just bought an old Catalina.
This is easy to say when you don't have 90% of your net worth in a depreciable asset. We're realistic. We'd hate to screw ourselves over a simple deck decision that saves no money (since we got the teak for so cheap) but kills our resale value. We aren't 100% sure an HR352 is the best boat for us. We have about 10ft of boat that we don't even use. This is hard for some people to grasp but keep in mind we're minimalists and all of our belongings could fit in 2 suitcases.
You are using that 'extra' 10 feet every time the waves get big, or you want to go fast. The only reason to change over to a smaller boat is if you can't handle it.
My guess is 793 screws.
2000 Nice job!
