- In this video update we go though af major setback in our boat renovation project that turned into a great opportunity to start with a clean slate to design the boat exactly like we want it.
We discovered extensive rust damage, forcing us to gut the entire interior of poor old Carla.
Join us as we take you through the challenges we've faced, the progress that we have made, and our plans moving forward.

Taking the boat back to bare bones is a really good idea. You can get into every scary part, rectify any issues and carry out proper preventative measures 👍 It’s a really nice looking boat from the outside, now you have the chance to make it your own on the inside 😊
We think so too that way we will be sure that every problem area has been addressed 😊👍
Yes, you now get to work on storage areas, as you put the new interior in place.
Best wishes from Northern Canada.
Yes that is definitely one of the best things about doing it like this. We are really looking forward to use all the available space. It’s really fun to get messages from all around the world. Thank you very much for your comment 😊👍
Great work guys
Thank you very much 😊👍
i like positive people, great to skin it and redo it again i think is great idea, so you know thas not going to give issue in future well done both
We try to keep a positive outlook on things and to be fair we brought ourselves into this mess 🤣. We also think that taking everything out was the best way to get the boat the way we want 😊👍
I'm a Finnish guy living in Australia. I built a 52f ketch with my brother in my backyard. It took 22 years of Saturdays to build, launched January 2005 and we still have her. We have built and maintained her for most of our lives. I can tell you with confidence that on a boat all building work, all repairs, all servicing, all changes you do, will take 3 times longer than you allowed and double the money. Still, love to see boat restored.
Wow that’s a HUGE boat build to do in your back yard 😳😳 Yes we have already encountered the time x 3 rule of boat building and we only just got started ha ha ha 😅 but thank you very much writing we appreciate it 😊👍
Hallo! Found your channel today and subscribed! I done the same job as you are doing now for some years ago :-)
It's a sturdy boat you have and will be a much loved "swim-platform" for your kids and dogs!
I recommend building a proper stair up to the boat. You will go up and down MANY times carrying stuff all the time. I carried up 5000 Kg during my renovation.
Good luck to you all four & dog.
First of all we love your last name our son is also called Erland 😊 second thank you very much for subscribing it helps a lot 🤩 we keep going back and fourth on the stairs vs no stairs dilemma but we might be getting closer to building them 😅 as you mentioned there is an awful lot to carry up and down over the next few years 😊👍
You seem really practical and ready to take this on. Looks like a massive job, but one step at a time.
Thank you very much. And yes definitely one step at a time or else you’ll get totally overwhelmed. Been there done that 😂😅👍
Wow. I'm looking forward to following your progress in this massive endeavor.
Thank you for watching. We’re quite excited as well 😊👍
Thank you for the proper update!
Thank you for watching 😊👍
Looking forward to seeing your progress 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you we’re quite excited all well 😊👍
Looks a really good and methodical approach. You are right to get to grips with all the corrosion and protect everything once again. It will give you complete peace of mind knowing that the steel behind every trim panel is sound. I'm currently going through a smaller scale rebuild which is also a complete strip out. I find that working from one end towards the other helps me keep motivated,. as I progressively work back I know that everything forward is sound and just waiting for the trim. This way I can also maintain a clean barrier of clear PVC which as it moves towards the stern minimises the remaining area I have to keep clean.
Yes exactly 👍👍 and it sounds like a really good idea to take it step by step from one end to the other. We hadn’t thought of using plastic as a barrier but it sounds like a really good idea 😊👍
Might as well pull the engine out now and sandblast everything. New engine mounts and fresh paint u see the engine will make a huge difference. I’ll follow along.
We thought a lot about taking the engine out but we don’t have anywhere to store it or work on it. I think we will end up moving it to the side and working on it in the boat or take it out in pieces for painting etc. thanks for watching 😊👍
sand blast .. the 3 coats of devoe epoxy
Sounds like a plan we will look into it 😊👍
I have subscribed and have watched all your videos i completely understand why you stripped the inside of the boat she was lovely inside but being a steel boat you condensation and that causes rust but if you afford the time and money to bring carla back to life that is great i wish you well in your endeavours 😊😊😊
Thank you very much for subscribing that helps us a lot 😊 and thank you very much for your kind comment. It’s nice to know that we are not alone in thinking that it’s the right decision to strip har down 😊👍
Fandeme godt arbejde Claus. Hvis nogen kan, så er det dig. Det viste jeg allerede på gode gamle rullebukken Supporter 😉 Hils Heidi 👋🏻
😁👍👍 tak for det 😁 Det bliver jeg da mega glad for at høre. Det er ved at være et stykke tid siden supporter 😊 Heidi hilser igen 😊
👍👍👍

For de-rusting stuff (super delicate but fast, won't harm a single atom of good metal) An old trash bin with a rebar or other iron rod stuck down each corner (connect them with some wire) then fill the bin with water and a bunch of bicarbonate of soda or whatever similar thing you have at home... it is not too particular. then run a battery charger through the setup, I think the positive goes to the rusted item and negative to your ring of rods (because it is a line of sight process) You will quickly see if you have it right... bubbles should form on the rust almost immediately. periodically brush the crud that builds up on your sacrificial rods. Please wear a hard hat inside there with all that rusted metal exposed.
Wow that’s quite a trick we actually have a spare trash can in the back. Maybe we should try it with some of the smaller stuff. Thank you very much for sharing 😊👍
@@SYCarla I've used it for example on my gradfather's old Gedore tool kit, with his signature engraved on very finely. It came out almost like new. Also good on old rusted shut tools. Jsut do it outdoors or with good circulation as the hydrogen and ogygen given off will lead to rust in an enclosed area.
@@poepflater we will keep that in mind in the future 😊👍

Thank you that helps us a lot 😊👍
