Well thank you! But it's not a great heroic effort. Yes uncomfortable at times with the dust, fiberglass itches and epoxy rashes, but really a joy compared to rotting away in a suburban unit, spending most of your money on rent and going nowhere. I'm starting to think life begins at 70.
Thank you for your comment Michael. I'm not looking for clicks or monetization, it's just to show my friends and relatives what I'm up to. However, should I assist others with what I learn on the way, that's a gratifying bonus. I hope it's going well with you. Cheers!
@@sailtofreedom6836 Thank you for your answer. You do a great job. Like a profssional. That what you teaching us, is extremley valubale and interesting, because not everyone buy a new boat. and in many cases, they are ultimate more stable than before. one question: what do yo use to dilute the epoxy.? Many greetings from Germany. Wish you the best.😘😘😘
@@michaelkante490 There are not really many people interested in what I am doing, but if I can inspire even one person then that's great! Admittedly I play around with the title which gives mixed results, but it doesn't affect my friends and relatives who see it anyway. The thinners or reducers I use depends on what I can get. In Australia I used all purpose thinners, later going to Acetone from Bunnings because it came in a hard plastic bottle that doesn't dint my paintwork. When overseas you buy what you can get. I'm currently using Pioneer epoxy reducer. Some boat repairers prefer a different brand but I buy what I can find. It's incredibly difficult in a foreign country to locate products. In my experience they all work much the same, though I may be wrong.
You're doing a great job. Coming along nicely. We used to give things a new lease on life at the old radio station. amazing what you can do with epoxy. A junk box is pretty handy too. I restored an old ply wood racing boat many years ago. It had a big engine ford 390 V8 nick named the thunder stick. Looking forward to see how you go. Have you come up with a name yet.
Hi Mark. Yes epoxy is amazing. Horrible until it sets, then fantastic as glue, filler, sealer etc. I couldn't do this restoration without it. The boat has a name and I may rename it, but I won't publish it. The last time I tried to import a boat into Australia the border force scoured every Facebook/messenger and TH-cam video they could find to try to get me. So I'm trying to keep names out of it. Even so, there will be a lot of deletions when I try to import this boat. Cheers.
