Repairing damage on our 33 year old Catamaran

- We confirm our suspicions of what happened to Paikea when we start investigating the cracks above the rudders. Poorly executed repairs have meant that we must now grind it all back and properly repair the damage. We run out of e'-glass and have to finish repairs in carbon fibre and our transoms start to extend as one project melts into another.
For those of you who are also working on fibreglass repairs to their boat, Shayne offers a few tips on the correct materials to use and why.

I love the two of you together! Her questions were SPOT ON! That was a great complement to the work being done. Perfectly informative video! Thank you both so much!
Cheers mate! Anna knows her stuff.
Really enjoyed the descriptions of the different weaves, can read about these things but to see it make it all make more sense. Cheers.
thanks for the feedback! Great to hear that it was helpful
Interesting learning about fiberglass tech, such a versatile material!
thanks for the clear explanation “rowing vs biax”. beside the difference for internal loads, i was never thinking at the
“pealing” of a biax
Glad it was helpful!
“Porky pies”. Hilarious. I was London-born but grew up in Canada, and so really enjoy the Cockney slang. Thanks!
Hehe! English parents 😉
Guys I’ve just discovered your channel. As an aspiring live aboard with a young family I am loving your videos. It’s clear there is a wealth of knowledge behind them and their lessons in self sufficiency! Keep em coming pls 😁👌
PS - Now can you teach me how you “build” and extend that new transom!? 🙏😁
Hey! Glad you are enjoying the videos. Definitely take the family cruising, it's not always easy but the rewards are great ....and the kids will LOVE it.
I found this one really interesting, especially about the different weaves, and to see the carbon stripping out was amazing. Really good information. Thanks 🐬⚓️🏖🌴☀️😎🇦🇺
You're welcome. Good to know you got something out of it
Well done. Love the tech talk.
Plenty of tech talk on our channel. Glad you liked it
Excellent video. Really informative! I love all the details about the type of glass you are using and its composition. Thank you!
Thank you! Glad you found it helpful
@@youngbarnacles Can I ask, when you replaced the transom, was the foam butted against the hull and then glassed on each side?
Yes you can.
In the case of this job I glassed the inside skin first on the bigger panels. This saved me a little time. It also made the external corner of the transom a little stronger and able to resist a bang a little better.
I so enjoy these videos.
Thanks mate 🤙
Geez!! those 2 damaged hulls were a shocking repair , makes one wonder , why try to save money if you can't do it yourself , should have got a tradesman like yourself
looks great😀
Brilliant, just came across this video and your channel. Very informative as I'm learning as i go doing repairs on a 1973 cat.
I will watch from the start over the next couple of days👍🏻👍🏻
Cool. We'll have to find your channel!
Coral, rock, boy ... sorted by hardness :)
Unknown, it was a present from the previous owner.....
Great video! Watch the subs click now! Work is progressing!
9:45 I heard steely dan AJA
Gotta have good tunes while you work.
WTF after 2:35 you show it patched up!!!! I wanted to see how you did it.
Yeah that's a fair comment. In our defense though, this was one of our earlier videos and we weren't really sure if TH-cam viewers wanted to see a close up of us laminating! Turns out there are plenty of boat geeks like us out there so we've done heaps of videos since that cover various processes. If there is something specific you would like us to address let us know, we may be able to put something together for you.
