Really Loving these Build Vlogs Finding out about the tools used ect is Awesome I Wished they was Longer as they are so Informative you are very Lucky to have the Skill set Perfect to Rebuild a Boat Thank You All
What about the type of fan used in RV's? They fit in the roof and look to be roughly the size of the hatches in your boat. This might also work for you, if you can close off the hull you're working in. Back 40 years ago I had a house in SoCal that didn't have AC, Summer nights could be brutal sometimes so I came up with a way to cool my bedroom at night but without a noisy fan keeping me awake. What I did was use air pressure to cool a room. I put an big box fan in another part of the house with cardboard cut to fill the rest of the window and acts like a seal. This exhaust fan lowers the air pressure inside the house, which will draw outside air through any other opening in the house, like bedroom windows. (Like the hatch in the workroom you're working on.) Another advantage is the fan noise is in another room so I could use a big powerful fan at the other end of the house and not hear it. It was easy to install and remove. It would get the room really cold to the point I pulled up a blanket.
Thanks, Ty for your explanation of tools you buy. As a journeyman finish carpenter. I was shocked to see you purchase all these very expensive tools just to refit the boat. I was thinking all this time that maybe you were not really going go sailing. Just buying a house/shop in Florida to do boat work. I know is a 50 footer with a lot of storage, but really a high dollar edge bander?? Maybe you should do a video on what tools you are going to keep on the boat.
Very smart to learn from your mistake, I’ve been lucky enough to learn from a few garage “mistakes” and I agree with you 100% just get the right tool plus eBay and market place are great for recouping some of the cost of buying a one time only tool etc. Love the channel keep up the hard work it’s much appreciated.
Thank You for sharing your journey. I think that forgetting to install your drain plug happens more than you might think. I did the same thing to my bass boat in my first season. I only did it ounce so I think I learned an important lesson. I admit my mistake I’m human but I really admire you for sharing it would have been easy to leave that segment out of this weeks video. You sir are a class act!👍 Ric
keep as many tools as possible maybe stored off boat - But they can be used as a side hustle eg cabinet work in houses or on boats to keep you on the water financially - many peoples don't have the skills etc that you and the family now possess and will pay good workers - your vlogs are your advertising on the quality and finish on any jobs you build -
This is a very true statement unless you’re living on a boat and space and weight are at a premium. Sometimes you have to go without for the benefit of the greater good.
The bottom of the diggy becomes a mess in a hurry. Wow. Can the workshop or battery/electric inverter support a pressure washer? Re: the heat. 1. You are wearing a long sleeve shirt, but 3. Why no AC?
Yep, we have a power washer so that is an easy fix. Heat…. Long sleeves are important for bugs and sun. The performance shirts are good for that. No AC yet but hopefully soon
@@SailingDauntless Looking forward to your analysis of latest-and-greatest AC providers. Recently there are: 1. DC compressor-based Air Conditioners (almost said ACs - which would be confusing :) - supposed to be much? more efficient. 2. Gas-based ACs - (as opposed to liquid refridgerant-based) supposed to be 40% more efficient as well. 3. Heat-pumps - all over the place - in ACs, in fridges, in washer/dryers. No pressure here :) Maybe sent one of the kids off to find a sponsor? Crazy talk I know; am sure no-one else is hitting them up.
@@SailingDauntless I asked this question poorly. Can you use a $100 electric power-washer with your boat's inverter (for smaller size and weight) while away on passage - between haul-outs?
Sorry for the delay. Yes, we are using dc air con, I don’t know off the top of my head what the refrigerant is though. I do have an electric power washer , they actually use a loud 900-1100 watts.
That was a very good Ty’s pro tip,
You guys make restoring and customizing a boat look like it's the easiest and most fun thing to do. 🙂
They really do, honestly I'm learning a ton about cabinetry too!
You guys are amazing craftsmen. I don’t think any person would take on this big of a job and better than factory

Thank you. We will be putting longer format detailed videos on Patreon in the near future

Agreed, some will get sold or stored and we will be doing a “cruisers toolbox” video soon
Love it. Yall need to start a boat remodel company. I would work for ya.
Thank you but sailing is in our future
You have amazing skills over many different things. Keep the good work going I am following your adventure closely.
Remember that everything swells on a boat.
🤣
You guys are such a hoot 🦉. 😂🤣

Laying down a piece a masking tape prior to cutting laminate will prevent it from chipping.
great video as always! Dingy looks amazing!!👍👍

Awsom work tye
Rookie!!!!
It's true that you should have the correct tool for each job, short cuts can lead to tragedy.
This is a very true statement unless you’re living on a boat and space and weight are at a premium. Sometimes you have to go without for the benefit of the greater good.
I love my festool kit but just couldn’t get on with the jigsaw.
Yeah, it was tough but it can cut through a 6” beam dead square
