    Looks great. My 84 year old father has kept a 1968 Westerly Nomad for 42 years, I'm about to restore it to it's former glory. I have no idea what I'm doing so your tips are great! Cheers from England ☺

    Wow, That really made the interior cozy and inviting. You did a great job explaining your technique.

    I used to work for a company that made real Teak decking for boats around the world.
    The templates were made in a completely different fashion by ripping 1 1/2" wide strips of 1/8" paneling and using a Hot Glue gun.
    We cut and trimmed the strips to fit around the perimeter of the deck area to be covered, then glued them together to make a full size semi rigid pattern of the deck.
    Much easier to work with than flimsy plastic sheeting, although your material cost for the paneling was a bit higher.

    Great video. I been thinking about sailboat life again. I lived on a boat back in my early 20's. We didnt have the internet for info back then.

    Looks great! A huge improvement. I have original laid teak decks in my Transworld 50 ft trawler built in 1989. I was going to lay a faux teak over them but after talking to various people and boat yards who advised me to sand and refinish my solid teak decks, I have decided to go that route. As expensive as teak is, it would be a shame to cover up the real deal if it is serviceable.

    I wanted to get you feedback and review of the synthetic floor covering you used on your boat. How did it hold up in the cockpit area in the sun and weather, and how it has done in the cabin. Is there a noticeable fade in color or texture from one to another. Perhaps you could do a followup video and review now that its been a couple years of use. Thanks and look forward to hearing or seeing your take on this stuff.

    • @VagabondEpicurean
      @VagabondEpicurean  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hello Jeff, the cockpit still looks like new. However, it does need to be scrubbed as it does get dirty from the dirt that gets stuck to your shoes from walking around the marina parking lot. The inside is easer to keep clean.
      Also on in the cockpit i have gotten paint on the floor and it can be sanded out to look like new.
      That is a good idea of doing a follow-up video on how it is holding up.
      thank you for watching

    Are there drawbacks to gluing the floor down? What if the cabin floods a little? Will moisture eventually get underneath the floor and mold and get full of mildew. Will it start to smell?

      much material you will need. It still looks like the day I put it in.
