This is quickly becoming one of my favorite sailing channels. Keep juicing the captain until all that experience and information is out for all of us to use.
This boat is really not a full keel. It is cut away under the bow. That means that the bow is very sensitive to the wind. When in reverse, the nose will alway blow down wind. Keep that in mind.
@@YachtHunters you guys ever consider doing a speaking tour or Sheet talk tour ? Come to The Great Lakes and check out some fresh water boats ! (Is there a difference? ) It would be an honor to meet you guys ! Keep up the fine work.⛵🌬⚓⛵
nothing beats the classic lines. Old salt told me "If you dont look back at your boat admiring beauty on launch ride to land and drive by few times just to have a look at your girl, she is not the boat for you"
So glad you like them!! we've got a bunch more boats in the "Q" ;) we're releasing them every thursday :) (perhaps earlier next week due to thanksgiving in the US). Cheers!
By far the best boat channel on TH-cam. I owned a 22 foot wooden sloop in 1976-1979. I knew nothing about sailing. If only I could have had access to his wisdom back then.
As a young lad, my dad taught my brothers and I how sail on his Pearson Vanguard. By today's standards, the beam is narrow and it's a slug in the water. But you could point it at any waves or weather and it would shrug them off and keep plowing through. Also, we backed it up all the time. We didn't know it was supposed to be tricky - we just learned how to do it and were experts in no time.
So, while I am a huge sailing aficionado, I haven't had my own boat since getting remarried 13 years ago. You sir, are an inspiration in how you demonstrate how even old guys like me can get back into the sailing scene. I have yet to convince my wife of the merits of the sail, but with your help, who knows? Awesome channel and information, inspirational!
Let us know if you manage to get back out on the water with her.... we have some boats in the pipeline that might be easier for those less experienced. Cheers!
@@YachtHunters I will do so, my last boat was a Niagara 26 (Canadian Eh!) which was a great boat for a family of 3 and also for single hand sailing. FYI, I am in the DC area in case something comes up on your horizon.
I sailed a Vanguard in the Great Lakes in the 70’s. Sailed under the Mackinac Bridge at night, during my first sail in the straits of Michigan. Fitted properly I agree, I’d cross an ocean with it.
The difference between you and I , I left the dog patch in droves above the bridge at night followed by a speeding ticket they cost me $310 but, all good memories lahaina hi.
@@ardentenquirer8573 I have a Vanguard. I'm 6'3" and can stand without issue in the main cabin area, headroom drops from the head forward, but only a couple inches. I fit comfortably in all berths.
Really like the candor and quips of Capt Q and Randy shows us what we like to see... great work, Im looking for an islander 32 ,34, 36, would love to see what you think of these older boats. thanks preston Hebron CT
Good luck! I liked Alan Gurney designs and of course the penultimate was Windward Passage .. I really like his Caribe 41 which was a miniature version of WP especially if you got one with the tall rig His other Islander designs were good all around period style boats with no asterisks to their name pretty boats as well not so many back east though
These old full keel tanks are the way to go, IMO. Yeah, they're not the fastest way to get across an ocean, but that's why we have airplanes. And if I had to pick any of the boats you've done to get caught out in a blow, it would likely be this one. And I really like the split level cabin look of the early Pearsons. You get massive head room where you need it without ruining the look.
Could you guys doing a review of all the boats you looked at and come up with a top pick for each of you? Please exclude Capt Q's daughters boat. Hands down I would pick that one too.
Fantastic idea!! Perhaps a year-end 'Pick of the Year' episode if we can get out of the boatyards long enough to sit still? The both of us have slightly different requirements/tastes... although many times the universal beauties dazzle us both at the same time. Cheers!
Today I would rig it to take a jet boil, a very efficient fast way of boiling water , soup etc, used by mountaineers and solo round the world sailors but they need a gimble!
Well Cap! These people are really starting to get on my nerves, really irritating me , I mean really , I had to watch a little Q Cap, good price for a 35-footer real good price, that'll make someone a real nice boat .
Cap! Word to the wise stay away from people who have drank all their life and now don't, watching Captain Q with a scotch-and-water in my hand is like spending the evening with Greta Garbo, it's a state of mind!!
Sea-swing question. Did you say a can of sterno would be a good use if the kerosene stove is not included? I have one sitting in my garage unsure on how to use it. Cheers
PLEASE SEND IT TO ME ! IT WILL HELP UN CLUTTER YOUR GARAGE... Its designed to heat a pan of what ever : water , soup , dinty Moore , especially in the middle of the dog watch on a cold drizzly night and when the helmsperson needs a morale boost ...thank you
Lovely boat but for moderent time I think I would prefer one of the 37-45 designs. More room for modern tastes and Prehaps if well looked after still resonable simple. FYI those type cotpit with wood coatings are not very comfortable and a clever redesign could bring it into the 20th century by replacing with a better shaped product that need no varnishing and does not leak. Cheers Warren
I am looking at a pearson that is soft due to the seam between the deck and the side. Owner wants to put plywood on it then fiberglass and feels that it will dry out over time. I think it should be pulled back and done the correct way...what do you think???
We like you Captain Q. Question is us land grown mammals can we move into Rivers Lakes and Oceans live on boats be happy healthy prosperous? I did talk to lot of people who were professionals at this only humans could do it for some amount of time. Dogs did not like it. Neither did cats.
i dont know which professionals you spoke with obviously, but the couple must be happy with one another on land before moving aboard also it helps to be a little bored with the hum drum land based life and to have a little spirit of adventure in them.. I have read many accounts of voyagers with very happy animals both cats and dogs though you should be aware of the restrictions in some countries about bringing animals into the country But it is the best life no matter how you attack it good luck (remember we only go around once )
There is an interesting older Australian made boat called the "Clansman 30". The hull is solid fibreglass with no core and the internal shapes are moulded as one with the hull and these are very, very strong boats. These boats have gone around the world and a TH-camr is currently going around Australia. They are similar in price to this Vanguard 33. Do you know of a similar designed American boat? Thank you and I love your videos.
@@YachtHunters Hello, A boat similar to the Clansman with the internal bulkheads built as part of the hull. The designer of the Clansman had previously built fibreglass trailers (caravans) and used some of these construction ideas in his boats. What do you think about Dyneema rigging? Thank you Captain Q.
Some of the boats I have seen you review are incomplete! you say nothing of the engines or sails! Come on be a more complete! I guarantee if they were surveyed the cost would be three times fold at least!
better than some of the new ones remember they have been put to the test for 50 0r 60 years not months and they are still sailing with dry bilges and enclosed lead
@@YachtHunters and as I understand the quality was supposed to better back then before every little cent was squeezed out of the boats for greater profit margins .... better put on another layer of fiberglass before it comes back ... I think my 70 year old solid wood kitchen cabinets will last forever unlike the ones from ikea...lol
This guy is old school he obviously has not had to bust out his CHK book to restore an old boat lately... Upwards of 10 grand just to make that 1 sea worthy.. Parts boat only...
I can't for the life of me figure out why you would assume this boat floats. It is sitting on the hard with a sketchy bottom full of delam holes where the gel coat has broken off exposing the Vinyl ester resin impregnated chopped fiberglass mat construction . This boat is so cheap because it would need a complete covering in 10 oz cloth with epoxy resin to seal it up. That doesn't even cover the wet core issues on the deck. I would run away from this project boat. There is nothing more expensive than a cheap boat.

You can't find homes for every neglected boat but bless you for trying.....
okay, I am finding I can listen to this gentleman all day. Love his taste in boats
Agreed.
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite sailing channels. Keep juicing the captain until all that experience and information is out for all of us to use.
"the only trick is to practice" Awesome!!!
Got to love it.
This boat is really not a full keel. It is cut away under the bow. That means that the bow is very sensitive to the wind. When in reverse, the nose will alway blow down wind. Keep that in mind.
This is the boat design I grew up sailing. I loved that boat. There is nothing like sailing on a tiller. Thank you for the trip down amnesia lane!
Glad you enjoyed it
Capt.Q and Randy hit another one outta the harbor.....great work crew !!
Thank you

thank you, tinto
nothing beats the classic lines. Old salt told me "If you dont look back at your boat admiring beauty on launch ride to land and drive by few times just to have a look at your girl, she is not the boat for you"
Precisely the nail on the head I’ve said that about boats forever snd cars since o could drive
Thank you
Have binged watched entire Season 1 to date. Waiting for more ☺❤
So glad you like them!! we've got a bunch more boats in the "Q" ;) we're releasing them every thursday :)
(perhaps earlier next week due to thanksgiving in the US). Cheers!
I am right behind you!
@@YachtHunters Happy Thanksgiving Captain Q ❤
Thank you Captain Q and Ran-Day! I really enjoy the boat tours.
My old back yard! Freeport High class of '63 here. Lived on Main Street in a building now gone and replaced by Bean's expansion. Memories.
every thing changes even in maine
By far the best boat channel on TH-cam. I owned a 22 foot wooden sloop in 1976-1979. I knew nothing about sailing. If only I could have had access to his wisdom back then.
That's the kind I like! Narrow beam w a full keel. Perhaps an offspring of the folkboat design. Motor looks new! Somebody got a deal..
As a young lad, my dad taught my brothers and I how sail on his Pearson Vanguard. By today's standards, the beam is narrow and it's a slug in the water.

A true sailor. Yes learn your boat everyone
Thank you for your note
An unsurpassed knowlage along with an contagious enthusiasum and genuine love for all things sailing. Keep up the good work Capt. Q and Ran-day.
Love these boat tour videos because I get so much valuable information from you Capt!! THANK YOU 😍

I owned a Rhodes Meridian for many years. It was one of the best sailing boats I have ever had. Philip Rhodes was a Genius at his time
he has quite a legacy of amazing designs... you are one of the fortunate! cheers
I am very much enjoying this series. Thanks for the vicarious maritime voyeurism while my boat is under wraps wintering on the hard. Cheers!
We're having to climb under more and more winter wraps the past few weeks..... is it spring yet?? Welcome aboard!!
I sailed a Vanguard in the Great Lakes in the 70’s. Sailed under the Mackinac Bridge at night, during my first sail in the straits of Michigan. Fitted properly I agree, I’d cross an ocean with it.
Sounds like a fantastic memory! We'd love to get out to the Great Lakes when travel restrictions are a thing of the past! Cheers!

Your videos are totally awesome - thanks for putting them together😀
thank you for watching and subscribing
I had a similar vessel. An Alberg 35 sweet boat. Go anywhere. Many of there boats have crossed many oceans. Small, short waterline, but very capable.
Im flying to Maine in two weeks to buy 65 vanguard!!! I’m excited to get a crew together and bring her back to Georgia
How did it go ?
Keep them coming!
Thanks very much!!
@@ardentenquirer8573 I have a Vanguard. I'm 6'3" and can stand without issue in the main cabin area, headroom drops from the head forward, but only a couple inches. I fit comfortably in all berths.
Wonderful old Pearson!! It’d be great to see someone give her new life. The wet balsa is a pain. Easy to fix DIY, but hard to make it look nice.
Wow that engine access is fantastic.
Another great video, real fun. Take care, look forward to future videos.
Great Boat showing .
Its funny you two talking fireplace and I’m thinking A/C
Maine will do that to you! 🙄
Since im retiring in the Caribbean, I love this show!
IDK if its a thatch hut on the beach of a deserted island with one palm tree!
This may sound stupid but we need this channel to spread out to other parts of the country. Like the SF Bay Area, lol. Who is Capn Q of the Bay Area?
8:00]. My parents little Pearson Ariels had one of those. Hot coffee was never a problem.
they are fantastically simple 👍
Phil Rhodes _ Pearson & a Tiller. No more need be said. Boat was built the year I started sailing on Puget Sound....👍👍
Hi. I hope one day to buy a sailboat and sail to distant lands. Thanks for your wisdom and expertise Captain.
Got to love it, have a great day and a merry Christmas

You might consider in the future explaining what a stuffing box is without making obscene hand gestures. : )
YES!
Love this channel. When it's time to sell my Catalina 25, I'm calling you
thank you but do call your broker then come see what we have found in the meantime thank you
Great videos. Tx captain. Want to sail and tie up in Venice near my family there.
Go for it! but which venice ?

And I really like the split level cabin look of the early Pearsons. You get massive head room where you need it without ruining the look.
It’s not a full keel, it’s a long keel. Full keel boats are like a Flicka, Bristol Channel cutter, or Stonehorse. They don’t have a cutaway forefoot.
Stepping into a sink. Gotta ask, we’re they thinking.
very similar to the triton at 28 ft , a very stable and secure feeling boat despite being low in the water
and this one is really sweet
no more stuffing box self lubricating shaft seal (volvo) dripless !
Could you guys doing a review of all the boats you looked at and come up with a top pick for each of you? Please exclude Capt Q's daughters boat. Hands down I would pick that one too.

Well Cap! These people are really starting to get on my nerves, really irritating me , I mean really , I had to watch a little Q Cap, good price for a 35-footer real good price, that'll make someone a real nice boat .
Sorry Mark but should i ask what has been so disquieting that that you have had to take a Captain q pill ?
Cap! Word to the wise stay away from people who have drank all their life and now don't, watching Captain Q with a scotch-and-water in my hand is like spending the evening with Greta Garbo, it's a state of mind!!
One might end up with. A Foot in Cold Water....if not careful coming down the companionway.....

Strerno is just jellied achohol as fuel. It is fuel enough, and on a small boat self contained, which is probably good enough.
Why does it look like Carl Alberg design ? 👍
We knew that was a "pipe berth" because of all pipe on top of it
Lovely boat but for moderent time I think I would prefer one of the 37-45 designs. More room for modern tastes and Prehaps if well looked after still resonable simple.

Fair enough!
Any issues to be aware of with 50 year old fiberglass?
13:25]. "They don't make them like that any more." Technically, that is true.
I am looking at a pearson that is soft due to the seam between the deck and the side. Owner wants to put plywood on it then fiberglass and feels that it will dry out over time. I think it should be pulled back and done the correct way...what do you think???
agreed, Diane. always a good idea to completely remove any and all rot. even if the affected wood does dry out completely, nothing bonds well to rot
We like you Captain Q. Question is us land grown mammals can we move into Rivers Lakes and Oceans live on boats be happy healthy prosperous? I did talk to lot of people who were professionals at this only humans could do it for some amount of time. Dogs did not like it. Neither did cats.

Love your programmes. Mine is a Carter 33 have you seen öne. Honest opion please.
Have not seen one but she’s looks lovely. Would love to see one in person if we find one Thank you
The good thing in not having the skills or the ca$h to restore such pretty toys (and knowing it) is that I'm not tempted to write a check. ;)
Captain Q what size boat do you suggest for a family of 4 and two dogs for world cruising? Thank you
i think i just answered that ...if you see the answer fine ...otherwise let me know thank you

These are exaptional cruising boats for their size. I know it well.
You showed a freshwater tank and a stainless water tank, which you did not show where the freshwater tank is
ผมอยากได้เรือแบบนี้สักลำ 🙋😋🐣
7K at best That's only because it has fresh power...
Wet decks and no rudder.
Talk to Foss Rudder out in California (Newport beach ?) they will whip up a new one i bet

Why watch this shit? All these boats are sold a year ago.
Yuk
but tell us what you really think and how about the sea swing ?
Unpractical junk.................good luck with it and give me a phonecall if you sold it for the indicated price.
Wrong. Those old Pearson’s are really good boats.
Parts boat only... I personally would be hard pressed to give 5 grand for it and thats only because I need the motor
Sell the engine & burn the rest !!!
the stuffing box concept is also used on older British cars steering wheel shaft set ups
wow
Back then that was living large
I can afford this boat send to Philippines hehehe thats my dream to have a boat so I can sailing by myself with my Dog and Cat
Now that sounds like a great crew!! 😃
