In previous videos, we searched for our perfect boat. Just a few weeks ago in mid-February, we found her. This week we're on our 1976 Tayana 37 (CT37) Taiwanese build designed by Robert Perry. She boasts a teak deck, roomy quarters, and needs a lot of work, and the projects have begun! sirenwilliams@thesirenslog.com
This week, we're cleaning the boat and the tanks, and getting underway! We've left Halifax Harbor Marina in Daytona Beach, FL, and we've traveled south to Ponce Inlet. We're traveling with large dog, a small tender, an iffy outboard, and our rigging can now be sailed.
We're Siren and Captain Hal. We're surfers, we're fishermen, we're yacht brokers, we're boaters, we're captains, we're divers, we're ocean people, we're Floridians, and that's what our channel is all about!
We do hope that you'll subscribe and follow along!

Love it when a man dances then tips his hat but 😆. You guys are fun to watch…just stay true and authentic and I’m sure your channel will grow!
Thank you so much!!
I can tell Hal has alot of experience fixing boats. I am sure he will get everything fixed up eventually
Good grief Charlie Brown!!! Sorry to say, I laughed more than I actually should have. Good luck!!!
Hahaha Thanks!
I’m so rooting for you guys! You are hilarious. Best wishes.
Hah well thanks!
Dancing after a frustrating situation helps.
Yes. Yes it does. lol
Well, the entries on your disaster spreadsheet just seem to keep growing. Hang in there, I really enjoy seeing you two recover from the problem of the day!
Oh man. Hahaha Yeaaaaah, and we’re the types to be willing to show those problems and I’d be willing to bet there are a lot of channels that don’t show every problem. We film “everything”, as opposed to setting up to film a specific thing so… we may end up being known as the people with a ton of problems but I can assure you, we both know, after many years of working on boats, everything we’re going through is minor and completely normal for an old boat.
Glad you’re enjoying it all though!
I think a drive around the marina would have agitated it. LOL...but the jumping on the boat makes a great video. 🙂
We thought so too. 😂
My water tanks on my 35’ sailboat was used for showers and washing dishes only , we would add a cup of bleach to the tanks every tank fill , but my tanks were plastic if your are SS DONT do bleach ! I would drain the tanks by opening the lower feed line to save my pump and electricity and pump into the bilge and add bilge cleaner to,do,two Jobs at the same time !
yup....thats how i clean my bilge/water tank !
Thanks! Yeah, ours are aluminum or SS
Money saving tip: The damp rid powder is calcium chloride. When it is time to refill the cup and basket type, we use prestone driveway ice melter from an auto parts store. Same stuff, just unscented. Being in Fla. you probably would have to order it, but it is around $10.00 for 10lbs.
Ahhhh nice! Thanks!
Thank you for that tip. I appreciate that. I'll try that in the cool, damp basement.
I use to be a bartender....LOL. Perfect oz!
Love your videos, and know how you feel , I had a 35’boat for years , but a lot of your problems are just not thinking and moving too fast , slow down and make a list of things to,do everyday and before bed !! It will help , my wife always had a list and she was my Measure twice cut once ! 👍🏻👍🏻
Well, we had to move fast! We only had a few very short weeks to get the boat ready to travel over 1000 miles and we both have jobs we have to get back to, and the marina was supposedly doing work on the docks and we needed to leave no later than when we did. SO it was a LOT to do in a very short amount of time.
Good advice. The older you get, it doesn’t get better. Start now and this advice will pay off immediately.
More videos with Micalson 50 !
You are great !
It’s wandeful classic ship ❤️
Thanks!! We ended up not buying that one, unfortunately. We bought a little Tayana 37. But that Mikelson is for sale!
At the time I was sailing on a Columbia 32', but looked at a brand new Tayana 37'. beautiful blue water boat with a gorgeous interior.Always wanted one but they were too expensive at the time.
When I was in the navy, when we steamed back from Japan, 2 days early, so the deck apes could repaint the port side because an admiral was coming on board. (USS Dixie (AD-14)
The dekk apes regularly holystoned our original (1938) teakwood decks. When the ship was scrapped the teak was bought out for reuse. The decks were 2" thick!
Wow! I wish our deck was that thick! hahahah
She's starting to scrub up quite nicely... You know you can't re-home the dog, don't you...
Yeaaaaaah he’s ours now. lol
Great that you have left the marina fingers crossed😊
Thanks! Hop on our Patreon to keep up in real time!
So glad you are on your way!!!! Safe travels!! It will all be worth it!!
Thank you!!! So far so good!
Youz two rockin' that boat musta been a sight to behold...hehe...
Thanks!!! We're gettin her goin. Little by little.
Love the dog 😊
That's Bentley Bo!
You guys have definitely got to get off the weed...Hahaha... Short term memory is a must while living, especially on a boat... Hahaha!!
I think they should get on the weed
Bently's butt looks great 😂 All the best guys hope you make it home 🏡
Hahaha The groomer did a very good job at shaving it. Lol
Well your underway. Good luck.
Thanks!
"and I think it's awsome" ✌️
I really like your channel, great work guys :)
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you!
Try a strong blend of occaclic acid / water mix (comes in a powder form) and let sit after scrubbing for at least 10-15 minutes, maybe 30 - that will make your decks bright. You could also use the Teka A and B process but that is very consumptive of the soft fibers. ALSO - scrubbing in the direction of the grain gets the dirt out and also the teak... as hard as it is going across the grain is best for longevity - the scotch pads are really good for that type of work - there are no bristles to deck wreck.... Suns out Teaks out! 🙂
Thanks!
Yeah the wood grain thing I actually explained with text on the screen. In day to day cleaning, I’d always go against the grain, but with teak cleaner, you are supposed to go with it.
Good morning guys...
I'm going to give you a Tip to investigate.
Zeolite, a stone mineral that is used for, eliminates odors and humidity, its maintenance with just running water and a brush. Where are they placed? Refrigeration, storage of clothes, food, storage rooms, etc., everything that stores something.
Good luck..... ⛵
Cool tip! Thanks!
@@TheSirensLog Three Apps that will be very useful to you even without SAILING. You are training your perception and understanding the climate.
1. Ventusky
2. Windy
3. High Tide
@@njbaskipper We’ve used Windy for quite a while but will definitely check out the others!
to get rid of the mold spores buy a small ozone generator, open every door inside turn it on and leave for the day. do this a couple of times and it works. We used in our camper and sailboat.
That’s definitely an option, but when traveling, that’s impossible because we can’t rent one to get it to the boat. We don’t have a strong mold smell or anything, just an old boat smell. I like it. It reminds me of other boats I’ve worked on in the past. But honestly we’ve been using this little thing for a while and it works!
I'll keep my feet on land!!!😂😂
Hahahah
WooHoooo! Off the dock finally, CONGRATS! If you need anchorage on the west coast there is a great spot just north of the north Siesta Key bridge in Sarasota.
Walking distance to Publix and if you need tools or resources I'm close by as well, 20 minute dingy ride from the bridge, have tons of tools and a car if you need it.
If you do get close give me a holler I'd love to run you guys some stuff if you need it or lend a hand.
Well done you two, its been a great ride so far and I'm stoked for what you have instore for us coming later this year!
Awhh hey thank you!!! We appreciate that so much! We will keep that anchorage in mind, for sure!!! 👍🏼 Make sure to hop on as a free Patreon so you can keep up with us in real time!
Ciao , siete coppia simpaticissima, vedo con molta curatezza state preparando la vostra barca , per navigare !
Swab the decks!
teak oil is best to use , for outside 4 coats once a year
Personally, I prefer Tung Oil over teak oil, but products that truly seal the wood, like Semco or Starbrites equivalent are even better! They will help stop penetration the most.
There was a CSY WalkOver 44 footer in Daytona Beach went for about $9K at Ebay auction, would have been good for you, has a Yanmar.
Nice, those are pretty boats and good builds. You can boats at such good prices at auction!!! I used to see them sell for $1 all the time years ago.
lol forgot the money.... how does that even happen? Y'all are to awesome. Personally I am not a fan of teak decks, I like the interior varnished wood, but wood decks imo just suck. Y'all have a safe trip home, praying that the boat and tender make it without to many issues.
Thanks!! We are still headed south and doing fine! Definitely some hurdles, but none we haven’t been able to handle.
On the teak, I really love them. Always have. They’re cool in the heat, great traction for us and for the dog, and they sure are pretty. Of course we both know they come with problems too. Since the quick patch job, we’ve done way better on leaks!!
Just like any engine its SUCK , Bang , BLOW then adjust the Air fuel metering device and your all set !
I use bleach in the heads. My wife won’t get on the boat it the heads had any Oder. I tried a lot of products, bleach is the only thing that worked. It also the cheapest.
Im wondering...instead of trying yo rock my Holiday Mansion HB side to side to agitate the cleaner & water in the tank, if I could "agitate" using an air bubbler hose. Should probably just try to rock the boat. Or get a new water tank. Ugh
Hahahah, hey that's a good idea!
Decks are finished,
They are, but for now we just need to get the boat 1000 miles home so we can tackle the projects.
“The Nicaraguan” is now a thing 😂
Oh shit.
Upward and onward lol
I see screws on the deck, I would have to remove them and install TEAK BLOCKS...👁️👁️
Maybe less toilet flushing next video? 😂
No way! We love sharing poo in our videos! lol
Mate, a step at a time, dont over analyse everything, ur doing ur head in. 😲😭 I found myself swaying, trying to help U move the boat🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahaha Well thanks for trying! 😂🤣
Love yur vids, was that anchorage just south of Daytona?
Yes. Ponce inlet
@@haltarpley9237 one of our favorite stops along the ICW
Too bad you felt so much pressure to leave HH. Your slip remained unoccupied for several days afterward.
Well, the story they gave us was that they were going to be doing work to the docks and couldn’t give us more than that additional week we did earlier this month. 🤷♀️ Who knows. They may have just wanted us out of there because it wasn’t until we bought the boat that things came to light for them. The diesel leak they blamed on us had started before we bought the boat, and there was a small black water leak that had been going on as well. As soon as we got the boat, we found and tackled those problems, but that’s when they realized they were happening so I think they blamed us, even though we were cleaning up the mess of the previous owner. I don’t know! Maybe they really did need to do some dock work. Does it look like it?? Hahaha
Don't take it personally, I would say that the reason they could not accommodate you is that there are too much demand for this marina. Five years ago there was a fair number of slips available. Then after 3 hurricanes went through Daytona in about 4 years, all boats from St Augustine to New Smyrna wanted to be at HH because it is so well protected in bad weather and there is now a waiting list. With many more boats docking here, I don't think that they increase the staff, which makes it more difficult for them to accommodate people. BTW I really enjoy your channel, you guys come across as quite genuine people and your music goes very well with your content.
That ginger getting ready to snap....... watch your self bro.
He better watch it.
She has already snapped. She is a read head.
Bentley’s poop and sailing adventures
Tie poo bags on leash
Yeah, if only I could get them to STAY there! hahah I continually buy new ones because either Bentley or Hal breaks them off repeatedly.
no point in me taking your Roil do what ever I like and get away with it. If it was me send him to the pound
My dad taught me the best way to clean. The water system is denture cleaner tablets are available at the dollar store … They work in the freshwater Bay. They work going down the toilet. !!!!!
Haha! Hey I bet that works!
Where does the dog do his business once out? Just like a puppy pad and throw it over ?
I kept trying show that in videos but Hal keeps telling me that nobody cares and that I shouldn’t have that in the videos because it’s dog poop but… he goes on a little piece of fake grass! And it works!
