Worked on crabbing boats half my life and spent the other half as a marine contractor. In my opinion, buying a boat to fix up is one of the worst ideas most people can have. You need money to burn to do this properly and your boat will never be worth what you put in. If you have a special boat/hullI can see why you would do this. Otherwise just get something in good shape. Every boatyard has an old boat back in the weeds for 10 years they’d be excited to give you (or sell you if you’re slow) but that doesn’t mean it’s a good deal. All that being said, I wish these folks the best with their vessel
Chapeau! Many years ago I made my dream of owning my own steel yacht come true by constructing one myself but having the hull built by a shipyard. Since I liked my plans, I received it at a very low price with the condition that the shipyard was allowed to continue building it. When the bowl arrived, I found slightly rusty spots under the primer and had everything sandblasted on the inside and sanded everything on the outside. It took me 16 months for corrosion protection, painting, interior work, marinization of 2 diesel engines and all the technology.

I have had the pleasure of discussing and meeting sailors and workers in the marine industry who explained me a few things about restoring a boat. My father owns a 13 meters Bavaria sailing yacht in the south of France and I sailed a lot with him the past 20 years. It is indeed hard work to maintain a sailing boat and it requires a lot of attention!
My father, after his stint in the Navy was over, found an old scrap boat, stripped it down to the hull and rebuilt it. It must have been seaworthy, we went fishing in Lake Erie every summer. ⚓
A true labor of love. Even though the video condensed the many hours you spent into about 9 minutes, it captured some of the detailed work you did to bring it up to its natural beauty. Great job and thanks for sharing the video.
Знать путь и проти его, не одно и тоже! Ни многие люди готовы сделать то, о чём другие задуматься не смели! Великолепное мастерство, умение и труд!💯👍 Всех благ этим людям.
My first boat was a sailing dinghy, I rode the bus to the marina after school everyday for months and learned how to work on it till one day I brought it home. I’m talking a little dinghy you got your self a house that floats. Good job
Such a great family and jack is just amazing kid!!!! I hope this video gets their page a lot of followers to support them on a spectacular journey for this kids dream to sail.
This is probably harder than building the yacht from scratch. What a beautiful restoration on this yacht, much respect for all the hard work they put into this vessel. A smooth sea never made a great sailor. Happy sailing, you deserve every inch of that horizon.
You have probably never done that. Rebiulding the old yacht is always much easier and a lot cheaper then building a new one. The only difference is, that buying a new one cost you a lot of money, rebuilding on the other hand takes a lot of your time and requires a lot of practical skills. If you cannot do it yourself, better buy a new one...
I learned years ago you can either make enough money to buy whatever you wanted new or you could learn how to take something old and make it as good or better than new and like this couple I chose the latter and became very good at it through the years I have refined my abilities to near perfection, and when a project is done, you look back and become proud of your abilities. Then it becomes an addiction after that is a large scrapbook of completed projects. They will love this vessel far more than a brand new one and on a sidenote, it makes a hell of a conversation piece

Ржавая яхта, со снятым оборудуванием, стоит не меньше 6000$. Яхта, которая на видео не меньше 8000$. Восстановить яхту, стоит минимум 4000$ при условии что большая часть оборудования на месте, металл не гнилой и вы будите делать всё своими руками.... Добавлю - подобные яхты продают с долгами, например за стоянку, это тоже не маленькая сумма и порой больше чем стоит сама яхта. 😂
How envious (without malice) of this couple. For the challenge of restoring an old yacht and making it seaworthy again, working even in the cold. Another thing that impressed me was the fact that the boat had so many metal parts to scrape, cut, weld and paint. At first I thought it was all made of fiberglass, but they only used this to finish the internal parts. I wanted to know if they had any experience in shipbuilding. Magnificent work 👏👏👏
I have been following the Sailing Melody channel for a few years now and Andy, Mellissa and Jack have now upgraded to a larger yacht, which they are restoring and adapting. The larger boat was needed due to the arrival last year of Oliver. They are in the pocess of selling Melody, if not already sold. And are preparing to set sail around the world in the next few weeks aboard their new and renamed yacht Ocean Melody.
Uhhhh - the painting was like the easiest and one of the least time-consuming parts of this entire process. If you think the simple painting requires a lot of patience, then don't dare ever trying to renovate a boat, car, motorcycle or anything else.
Все работы по очистке корпуса можно было провести быстрее и на много качественнее при помощи пескоструйки ,в свое время свой катер очистили от 20 летних красочных наслоений за 5 часов до металлического блеска и сразу покрыл суриком ,а потом шпакоевал и красил.
What a beautiful restoration and this is the height of the word dedication to something you love! That is amazing what they did bring her back to life a lot of hard work for 16 months but certainly worth it in the end!
Restoration? This restoration is no where near complete. Everything depicted is superficial. That last interior shot is staged, the interior is still a mess. What about the systems and mechanicals? The boat is an empty shell.
Great job saving this lovely boat. Congratulations and I hope you can enjoy it. Everyone needs to subscribe to help them continue there great adventure.
❤😮Fantastic job. Love how you shortened the whole process. It was perfect when it was all white. White reflects the heat. The final color shocked me. Everything was perfectly white. I loved it. Then. O M G
I have worked in Shipbuilding Industry and also being a Mechanical Engineering I understand how critical this whole work all about refurbishment/repairing of an old ship or even a boat. Kudos to the team
A job well done . I know the nerves became tense as you neared the last month , or so , of reconstruction . Just saying , " I like it " is such an understatement .
Quand le rêve et la volonté rentre en action ça donne cela ❤ . Bravo a cette belle famille d avoir relevé ce défi que peu de monde aurait relevé. Moi qui suis actuellement en recherche d une vedette Fluviale pour y habiter à l année je mesure ma chance d avoir un budget correct ( parce que je suis seul maintenant) Je n aurais pas les connaissances et le courage de partir d une "épave" comme l était ce bateau avant que vous en preniez soin. Bravo et Bon vent a toute cette famille ! J'espère qu ils naviguent maintenant.❤❤
Jaw-dropping. Congratulations on your spirit of economicality, your team bonding, your sense of not wasting, not recycling, but giving back life to man's first exploring medium. Congratulations, and, should you ever cross Corinth Canal, let me know!
Newest Subscribers, this was us last month, barnical cuts all over my knuckles, but its good when you have done the anti foul and know your boats safe for a bit 😊 Jacinta
not to diminish their efforts but anyone can do this. They are awesome for doing it. You simply have to decide you want to and focus on finding the right boat and then off to the races. Do not be afraid!
Wonderful enthusiasm and skill shown while probably dreaming about peaceful trade-wind sailing and also considering hove to for storm condition ! The very first ability I want to know about a sail-boat !
This family are very strong and well motivated by each other, I wish had just a touch of their enthusiasm they are a hard working family and I wish I had it in me and the strength to do the same thing, but hey miracles do happen, who knows I could be one of the lucky ones, only God knows.
Always more cost effective to purchase a sea worthy , well maintained vessel than a "Project" boat. On the other hand at the end of the project you know your boat back to front and the cost is spread over time.

LG. an alle die es gründlich und richtig machen wollen.
I've followed their adventures for a long while, unbelievable amount of work, skills,detail, this is a very good summery vid but really needs an update with her sailing ;)
Good idea if you want a money pit. I worked on commercial vessels for 30 years, as an engineer I can tell you the cost to repair is high. Shipyards charge a lot for dry docks. Not to mention anything marine related cost 5 times more. If steel isn’t stripped all the way and treated rust will return in a matter of weeks. Sandblasting the entire hull would save time and money then cutting all the rot out. Audio gauge the hull and sea if it’s worth repairing.
Paint looks great till the rust starts coming through again. Should use a sandblaster for a job like this. Do it by the m2. Blast a m2, then paint it before the humidity gets on the metal, then repeat etc. Once you have that base you are home free and it will last SO much longer !
Fantastic video. Questions: Before starting your project did you have knowledge, experience in boat repair or maintenance? - Also, when you painted the boat did you use any primer or red lead over the metal structure?
Why didn't you sandblasting it instead of grinding it? It's way more effective and the result is great. After that u blow away the dust, leftovers "" and clean it. Then it's ready for the reparations and priming and finally paint quite fast. I've done that with a boat like that and the sandblasting took me about 13 hours on the outside but then it was all clean from paint and rust. However, you did a great job and it was fun to watch so thank you for sharing 🙌👍👍

Este materialul bătrân și renovarea îi de ,,fațadă,,.Servus.
I was always taught, buy the newest boat you can afford.
Who is got this kind of spare time to do this. Most people don’t.
Done that, got the T shirt. It will take you twice as long as you think, whatever you estimate on the outside and trice the cost.
Be aware...
Isnt it cheaper to build a brand new boat?
Если бы мог, поставил 3 плюса. Молодцы ребята. Волевые и умелые. С такой женой, как закаменной стеной.

A love of sailing is a motivation that is misunderstood by so many. The minute you cut the engines and are under sail, magic!
