    Re: Onboard Lifestyle ep.40 Linh's 7 Day Challenge!
    When you installed the cockpit outlet, a green grounding wire was connected to the outlet at the box.
    My questions are;
    1. how do you ground electrical work on a boat?
    2. how do you protect your electrical systems and appliances from a lightning strike hitting your mast (the mast could be aluminum or composite materials, but some rigging components are steel) or some other metal object on or about your deck?
    3. When you refit, your salon table for example, do you prepare as-built drawings and material lists? You must recognize your work will be seen by cruisers, and when they see you at anchorage or at a dock, they will ask you to build something for them, or repair something on their boat. You will be in demand. Have you planned (including how to say no) for such requests?
    Teal, your work is not basik! Well done!

    Hey Teal. Just a thought, you could make a rubber disk that will fit in the hole on the sugar scoop that the ram shaft sticks through. The disk should be a flexible rubber with an x cut in it, to let the ram out and keep most of a water splash.

    Huge fan of your work, I haven't seen this kind of quality and skill in a boat refit. Something that would make great content, when you haul out, is a full inspection of the boat. I just want to see if the inspector could find something wrong. My guess is that you are sitting on over 1.5 million in equity, would be fun if you could find out an approximation on the market value of your boat.

Tip: starboard edge can be simply finished to factory smooth glossy edge by simply dragging a straight blade across the edge........(much like using a scraper on figured wood - Do it before you router round over, or bevel your edges)

    I really like your meticulous attention to details and methodical approach. I find your reasoning behind you decisions very informative. It was interesting to watch you implement hydraulic steering. If I understand correctly this is strictly passive hydraulics, no pressure input form engine connected pump. What I fail to understand is why you choose to mount fill in plug on the roof. You drilled a second access hole in the kitchen above the Capilano pump. Why not mount a bracket in there and a fill in plug. No need to drill into the roof. Did I miss something?

    • @OnboardLifestyle
      @OnboardLifestyle  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      The fill location will be located within the enclosure that will be going in next year.

    @edrosenberger6947 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I guess Teal already aligned the rudders parallel to each other. That must be a piston pump to keep internal oil leakage to a minimum. Even then, the helm wheel probably cannot have a neutral marker.....but it is a very simple rudder control system. I like. Will the cylinder rod hole in the hull be sealed with a rod clearance tube? Like you three, Johan & Malin are good people.....

  • @stevesheliflying
    @stevesheliflying 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video as always. I question why the fill hole needed to be on deck and not just above the wheel where there is less chance for water intrusion? But I trust you know best as I am not there with you. Everything sure looks great!!

    Hi Teal! I’m curious if you are going to install some sort of bellows for where the linkages and actuator shaft pass through the sugar scoops to keep sea water out of the compartments. If not, are you going to install bilge pumps to keep compartments dry? Keep up the great work! You guys are almost done!
    Charles

    • @OnboardLifestyle
      @OnboardLifestyle  5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Before I commit to bellows I would like to see how they perform. I made them to handle a following sea containing any blue water to just the compartments and built them to be self-draining with a 1" pitch for every 12".

  • @peterhancox5268
    @peterhancox5268 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Teal. I'm sure you have thought about this but its worth asking anyway. If your rudders do hit something then the rudder cassettes are going to swivel upwards and rip those 'through bolts' out of your hull. Is the compartment around this area water tight? and do you have a way to pump the compartment if shit happens?

    @acbnow 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think you will run into trouble, mounting the hydraulic cylinder in this way because of the non linear movement of the linkage. The ball mount of the cylinder can only handle the angle of ONE rudder. The cylinder must not mounted between the linkage.

  • @johntripp2028
    @johntripp2028 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I do not like starboard for spacers or backing. It is too soft and will create give. Once you have give the bolts will loosen and everything starts to move. I have tried using starboard like that and it was a bust each time. You will have a lot of stress for a long time. A lot of cycles. Of course I may be wrong. It happened once. :) BTW You do good work.

    PS. That hydraulic fill tube fitting you put on top of the salon may not be the best location. Due to being exposed to the salt water. You easily could make a bracket to attach the fill tube inside the steering column. And then install those screw hole hatches to make a better closure into the kitchen not a clock plate. Please don’t rush just because you’re getting close to the end.

    • @OnboardLifestyle
      @OnboardLifestyle  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      That is one of the advantages of having a tie bar connecting the two rudders rather than independent cylinders for each. I have a sleeve running through the tie bar with an eye bolt on the centerline. I installed a U-bolt on either side (about 8' from the center) and can easily deploy a block and tackle on each side to control the rudders manually.

  • @Andrew-lk5ov
    @Andrew-lk5ov 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am curious why you chose not to use anti-compression bushings and backing plates to spread the load when you mounted the bushings for the jackshafts for the rudders and other thru bolt applications. Nida-core may serve quite well as a coring material, but I would worry about its susceptibility to localized compression loading, especially when subjected to continuous multidimensional stresses found in steering gear. With off shore cruising, your rudders and linkage will never be unloaded and will be continuously subjected to shock loads.

    • @OnboardLifestyle
      @OnboardLifestyle  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You are spot on Robert. When I made the video I put very light hardware in to make sure everything was in the correct location just in case I had to move it slightly for alignment. I wanted to finish the hydraulics and test the motion first before putting the permanent hardware in. I have increased the through bolt size and doubled the quantity along with 6" backer plates for the jackshaft bushings. I will cover that in a future video.

  • @gregoryh4601
    @gregoryh4601 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hello Teal A question on your hydraulic ram will you be using TWO? I think Two would be better then one ? the one Rudder System would have more stress on it in turning. But two hydraulic ram could be better and may turn better. I'm just asking because you are going to have long rod going across the boat to the other Rudder. Just my thinking, But it is cool how you have a great Wife that works with you on your Dream Sailboat. Do you know how many men would die for that? Also a great little help she will be a great Capt. Some Day. GOD BLESS and take care.

    Wasn’t there some designers and engineers who put that sailboat together with the proper specifications to where the ram goes. So it’s pretty basic if you follow the original design specifications

      The answer to that is complicated. Our boat has been modified multiple times over her 26 year life moving the steering system and rudders to accommodate three totally different propulsion systems. When we purchased her the cylinder was located out in the elements and mounted at an angle that put a slight bow in the tie bar. The modifications that we have made to the steering system makes maintenance more accessible and should prolong the life of the components.

      Onboard Lifestyle doesn’t matter how many times it’s been changed there’s still the same geometry involved when it comes to that. But charge on
