Great that Aladino decided to replace that part at the back when he did. Probably saved lots of heartache later when the boat was in a less convenient place for working. Such a good eye.
Aladino reminds me of my father, who spent months restoring a Riva-style wooden motorboat 45 years ago. Varnishing was an epic task and dust his nemesis. Although my father sprayed the vanish, it required 7 or 8 coats, with polishing, degreasing and dedusting after each application. The last coat was buffed and the mirror finish gave a beautiful depth and colours to the wood. 45 years later, having experienced fresh and sea water, sun and rain, hot and cold, the vanish needed only a light buffing to regain its beauty. So, Aladino, your work is not in vain and the result will speak for itself for years to come -- but, you already know that, don't you? 😉 Well done on a great job!
There are old memories with me, because I owned a Vindö 30 40 years ago. Your craftmannship is out of the world, a very nice and perfect varnish. It's a pleasure to see how natural and authentic you do this job, congratulations and always good luck in private and professional matters.
This was such a fun episode! It's nice to see you two relaxing a little. The reality check of your cute little trailer's location cracked me up, especially the bear proof garbage bin... in the Netherlands. As a Canadian, that one made me grin. 🤣🤦 Thanks for sharing your process and silliness with us. 💕
It is actually a guard to prevent people dumping large objects in the container. (and keep kids out) All underground containers have them. Our building's underground container even has an access card reader to prevent others dumping their garbage in them.
"Bear proof" does include rat-proof as well - which is essential all over the globe. The letter-box-like small opening does prevent inserting larger-than-daily litter, too, so it is bulky-waste-proof and garbage-hooligan-proof in the same go.
From an old coatings chemist, we always recommended that gloss varnish is never stirred and preferably kept in a still place any bits in the varnish settle and stay on the bottom and they are there no matter how good the manufacturer filters. The other thing is we would recommend build coats of semi-gloss varnish you get a more even and better film smoothness then the last coat is wet sanded and prepped very carefully after which a gloss varnish is applied in only one or two coats.
Beautiful sheen on that varnish. Good job!! Just remember, when your working on a huge project like this, it is only a boat. You are NOT building a Swiss Watch!! LOL
I had the privilege to live in Holland for three years in the mid-80s, so I love the views of the country side. I wish you would include the names of the villages and towns. Thanks for the excellent content and videography.
Hi to you both,Aladino,Mr.perfection.a beautiful varnishing job,such patience and a perfect partner.What a lovely couple.Well done to you both.Cheers,Roly🇬🇧.
I love how, sweet lady, you narrate you videos. We are alive for a finite amount of time and you both know this and are making the most of it. Congratulations on the beautiful finish!😀🇨🇦❤️
I know you will be (are) sailing soon, and I can`t wait..... but for now this was a wonderful episode.... Great to see you both having fun and relaxing... :-))) xxx
Absolutely beautiful, looks like a piece of furniture!! Your voice is beautiful as well, young lady. I enjoy listening to you speak, regardless of the subject. You could probably make quite good money narrating. Cheers !!! :)
Holland is such a peaceful country. The vibe is so mellow! Beautiful work on the varnish and the work on the drive will pay benifits for years to come. Enjoy your summer!
I really appreciate Aladino's attention to detail. I can relate- when you focus on the details at first, you can better enjoy the ride later. It is as much psychological and emotional as physical.
Sweet brightwork! I’m right there with you on the “some years are dusty, some are not” point. Thing is, it’s only you who’ll be noticing it, just gotta let it go because the other way madness lies. 👀👍🍻
Our paths crossed today west of Rörö, we were flying a blue and white gennaker. Magic carpet looked fantastic! Have a great time in Sweden! Looking forward to the episodes
Thanks a million for starting this series of less stress posts! A while back I commented how I looked forward to your videos to help me relax from a busy week. With your mentioning it, I realized your increased stress level was coming through the video. Still being great content but not as relaxing as they were. You've now corrected that. Cheers!
If you want a perfect, dust free finish, I have found that you need to wet sand the cured varnish with about 2,000-3,000 grit and then buff it back to a super gloss finish. I use Epifanes gloss varnish exclusively. It is a bit harder to use than other varnishes, but the results and the longevity of the finish are worth it. Mahogany is the worst wood though since starting from bare mahogany normally requires 8-10 coats to completely fill the grain and get that mirror finish. You can reduce the number of coats needed by using a filler stain like Pettit dark mahogany. I do that to reduce the number of coats, to get a uniform color and to reduce that sickening yellowing that happens to mahogany from sun exposure.
@@jfv65 - difficulty in getting the boat into the spray booth, though. 😉 Non fibre coverall ought be worn too; fibres are coming off your clothes every time you move !
Being boaters and have just spent the day on our boat at the dock loved seeing the behind the scenes of magic carpet 1! Especially the food you cooked and the cookbook you get your recipes from. We had a very simple lunch of smoked salmon and cream cheese bagels with a rose wine.
Hello sailors! I live in US (PNW) now, but you brought back wonderful memories for me; of my college days in Denmark; riding my bike and taking the train; thank you!! 🥰🚴♂️
Sorry about the dust. Looks beautiful on video. Beautiful scenery and homes. 😂 on the trash can outside your caravan. I would normally have that kind of luck.
It's a good thing you guys too Magic Carpet 1 down the Rhine when you did, from the reports I am seeing the water level is getting to the point where about the only means of navigation will soon be a canoe. Even the Thames is down. Very unusual and worryingly.
Your Vindo is looking amazing! Some of those cutlass bearings have set screws coming in from each side to hold them from turning inside the shaft tube. A trick for putting the new ones in, is to put it in a freezer overnight to shrink just a hair and it will go back into the shaft tube nicely
Well done 👍 I understand Aladino’s dilemma having been called Anal retentive many times. My mentor once said to me “if it’s not perfect, then it’s flawed “. Achieving a balance between perfection and good enough can be difficult and time consuming. Having another set of eyes you trust, to lend encouragement and judgment can help to keep you from spiraling into the abyss. You both are a great team. Thank you for sharing your life with me with your well executed production. I hope to meet you someday as I continue on my journey to the sea.
That is one beautiful boat. When you do sell it the new owner will be a very fortunate individual. Too bad I am not 50 years younger and have 50 times as much money.
There is immense joy in watching craftsmanship like yours that gives us hope and makes us appreciate what humans can do when they care about what they are doing. Zen in the art of sailboat refurbishment.
This was a lovely episode and really nice to see "behind the scenes" too. The coachroof and deck looks absolutely stunning. I could learn a lot about attention to detail from Aladino!
More great work from the perfectionist ;-) I just got back from Holland with the North Sea Race from Scarborough Yacht club in the U. K. I have to say Maya you should look at a recording contract with an audible book company, with your voice you would make a great reader.
Yes, she is a very articulate speaker that I been following for a while! I believe at one point she was preparing a script per each episode with good music selection.
Don't sail that work of art it will get messed up... put it in a museum for us all to admire... 😂😂🤣🤣👍👍👊👊 Just kidding have fun and amazing job as always, Aladino!! Be safe MC2 crew! 👍👍👊👊
Aladino's love of his craft is evident in everything he does. That cutlass bearing play is only to be expected after all the hours that were put on it coming up the canals. It is not so much that I would worry about it for awhile but Aldino is Aladino. That shaft wear though is something I would address as it will only make a new cutlass bearing wear faster. So once again Aladino's intuition was correct even if it took another to point out the issue to him.
The picture in the train of the sailboat is actually a racingyacht. If you like sailing and are in Friesland I highly recommend seeing one of the races. They are competing all summer. Its called skûtsjesilen.
you can use 2500 wet sand paper between the layers of paint to remove dust, we usually do this on cars if we are going to do a show car, depending on how many layers you are going to do when you are done with layers I would polish with 9000 grit polishing agent
A rubber cutlass bearing should be rotated in such a way that a wide part of rubber is at bottom. This bearing seems installed with a groove almost at the bottom, which results in faster wear.
Not so sure about that all. Once a shaft is rotating in a journal (or cutlass bearing) the hydrodynamic effect of the rotation and the lubrication fluid lifts the shaft clear if the borrow of the bearing and the bearing climbs up the wall of the bearing on a wedge of lubrication fluid, in the direction of rotation of the shaft until an equilibrium of forces is achieved.
You are awesome! I knoow the struggle of dust in the varnish, i once was chasing the perfection of dust free varnish on wood when i was a teen. it never came. As someone else suggested I think that lots of layers, then sand it down, then polish is one good way to go. Also another tip. spray distilled water inside the "dustfree" invironment with a spraygun into the air can make the dust settle. then after that, go over the area to remove the last dust, before varnish.
Great Episode as always! Maybe it's just y'all's fantastic editing style, but every episode feels like a clip out of a movie - Except for the fact that it's all real. The non-renovation scenes (Such as the travel and cooking montages) were very well done, and I would love to see more. Have fun on the Baltic, -J
Hi, the visual image's used of masts and sky when talking about the future was very effective (good) for me,{around min 11:22 of video} particularly in relation to connecting your present hard work and sacrifice to an imagined outcome that you mentioned later. (I really hope that it was a creative decision), bye Duncan
I just follow you guys since a couple lf months but i didn’t know u where so close to my hometown called Sneek. If i ever see the magic carpet out sailing i will definitely say hi!
A dust control option is industrial width ‘kitchen’ cling/ sticky wrap. I have seen it used to good effect in Tiland. Set up in sheets or as walls in and around paint areas. Another option I know of is a positive pressure ahead, or my local years uses a big vacuumed blower to keep forging air out on the plastic tents they build, Kline yours.
All the finishes are are beautiful, I have been a finisher for 25 yrs,love your HTC and all boat and sailing UT sait and tar/SV seeker/parlay ecst.
Watching varnish dry is just a little more exciting than paint. Come on guys, time to live up to your TH-cam title and start 'Sailing' Magic Carpet.
those who work with their hands - those are the craftsmen. those, who work with their hands and brain - those are masters. And those, who work with their hands, brain and their heart - those are artists,
I like how Aladino just digs right into the leftovers. :D For some reason, it's my favorite shot in this update.
Anyone who has pulled their boat in a Southern California boatyard, would be SUPER JEALOUS of that place!
Great job. Maya's voice is very sudden and keeps the listener glued waiting her next commentary.
Great that Aladino decided to replace that part at the back when he did. Probably saved lots of heartache later when the boat was in a less convenient place for working. Such a good eye.
Thank you Epifanes for supporting this awesome couple and project
"I might need a bigger wrench" HA, I say that everyday. Aladino, the mix of sailor and master craftsman. Stunning work. Take a breath and be proud.
I've said the same thing working on my motorcycle! I too, at times, need a bigger wrench... :)
Aladino is not only a magician... he is a true craftsman. It's always a treat to watch him work his craft(s).
And he’s pretty adept with the hammer, too!
Aladino reminds me of my father, who spent months restoring a Riva-style wooden motorboat 45 years ago. Varnishing was an epic task and dust his nemesis. Although my father sprayed the vanish, it required 7 or 8 coats, with polishing, degreasing and dedusting after each application. The last coat was buffed and the mirror finish gave a beautiful depth and colours to the wood. 45 years later, having experienced fresh and sea water, sun and rain, hot and cold, the vanish needed only a light buffing to regain its beauty. So, Aladino, your work is not in vain and the result will speak for itself for years to come -- but, you already know that, don't you? 😉 Well done on a great job!
If I ever wanted a boat or could afford it, one that Aladino had built would be the one to own!!! Cheers...
You got THAT right! He made Magic Carpet BETTER than new... :)
I so miss Dutch Beer and Food. Spent 2 years in Germany back in the 80's. If you drink beer please show some of the beers you drink there.
To varnish or paint is indeed an Art...have learned the hard way.....
details count more than you think. Thanks for sharing.
It is always a pleasure to watch you two make Magic for Magic Carpet!! You are such hard workers. Greetings from big fans in Montreal.
There are old memories with me, because I owned a Vindö 30 40 years ago. Your craftmannship is out of the world, a very nice and perfect varnish.
It's a pleasure to see how natural and authentic you do this job, congratulations and always good luck in private and professional matters.
Aladino is such a master craftsman that he made their boat BETTER than new! The man's an artist when it comes to boats.
You know you two are really beautiful people thank you for sharing
This was such a fun episode! It's nice to see you two relaxing a little. The reality check of your cute little trailer's location cracked me up, especially the bear proof garbage bin... in the Netherlands. As a Canadian, that one made me grin. 🤣🤦

Wow. The varnish and that salmon dinner! Both works of art:)
You guys seem to be such a harmonious happy couple
Between your mastery with a stinged (???) bow, and Aladinos mastery with a brush/roller, art is achieved!

Aladino keep up the great work, and Maya keep up the great videos. And throw us in a tune, if you don't mind.
Beautiful sheen on that varnish. Good job!! Just remember, when your working on a huge project like this, it is only a boat. You are NOT building a Swiss Watch!! LOL
The finish on the cabin sides is unbelievable. Fantastic work. I love the choice of music on the varnishing montage, it works really well.
I had the privilege to live in Holland for three years in the mid-80s, so I love the views of the country side. I wish you would include the names of the villages and towns. Thanks for the excellent content and videography.
Hi to you both,Aladino,Mr.perfection.a beautiful varnishing job,such patience and a perfect partner.What a lovely couple.Well done to you both.Cheers,Roly🇬🇧.
That is BEAUTIFUL FLAMING WOOD
I love how, sweet lady, you narrate you videos. We are alive for a finite amount of time and you both know this and are making the most of it. Congratulations on the beautiful finish!😀🇨🇦❤️
I know you will be (are) sailing soon, and I can`t wait..... but for now this was a wonderful episode.... Great to see you both having fun and relaxing... :-))) xxx
Aldino is such an artist and effective perfection in what he does, and Maya compliments him beautifully. A joy to watch every episode.
TOTALLY 100%!
Thank you so much for these videos. It is nice to hear you talk to us, and explain your life, and your goals. We wish you all the best!
The fastest 20 minutes of my week is watching your videos. Humor, beauty, introspection, master craftsmanship, lovely scenery, great music. Thank you!
Such a lovely place must take the family some day.
UN GRAN SALUDO DESDE ARGENTINA !!! Y QUE LA FUERZA LOS ACOMPAÑE !!!!
Absolutely beautiful, looks like a piece of furniture!! Your voice is beautiful as well, young lady. I enjoy listening to you speak, regardless of the subject. You could probably make quite good money narrating. Cheers !!! :)
Aladino is a true WIZARD!!! BRAVO, BRAVO BRAVO!
Holland is such a peaceful country. The vibe is so mellow! Beautiful work on the varnish and the work on the drive will pay benifits for years to come. Enjoy your summer!
Epifanes and Aladino…..what a combination for beautiful results
I just love this channel ❤️🇨🇦
I really appreciate Aladino's attention to detail. I can relate- when you focus on the details at first, you can better enjoy the ride later. It is as much psychological and emotional as physical.
Plenty of work going on, you two! Keep itup!!
Can’t wait to see her sailing!! An incredibly beautiful boat.your craftsmanship is off the charts!
From SC USA,fair winds ⛵️

I was thinking along the same lines. The 2000-sanding + buffing reminds me of a car painter chasing that show gloss finish
@@jfv65 - difficulty in getting the boat into the spray booth, though. 😉
Non fibre coverall ought be worn too; fibres are coming off your clothes every time you move !
Yes, you can go even finer, maybe 6000 grit, then polishing compound, to knock off surface dust before next coat.
misspoke....this polishing business is not done between coats but at the end ..... 🙂
@@framemaker52 Yes. It is the final step in seasonal varnishing if you want a perfect result and don't have separate sanding and varnishing areas.
What a beautiful country! That varnish job is unreal. Aladino is truly a magician!
Pine nuts are not appreciated by enough folks. They are wonderful!
Being boaters and have just spent the day on our boat at the dock loved seeing the behind the scenes of magic carpet 1! Especially the food you cooked and the cookbook you get your recipes from. We had a very simple lunch of smoked salmon and cream cheese bagels with a rose wine.
We passed the Vindö boat yard yesterday and I thought of you guys of course :)
Aladdin, congratulations! A painting worthy of the best tradition of the best classic motorboats such as Riva but also Boesch ...
Hello sailors! I live in US (PNW) now, but you brought back wonderful memories for me; of my college days in Denmark; riding my bike and taking the train; thank you!! 🥰🚴♂️
So peaceful in the Netherlands, it seems to have calmed you both. Less urgency allows for you to enjoy the simple things.
Hah! That is our favorite recipe out of that book. Love this salsa on fish of any kind.
Sorry about the dust. Looks beautiful on video. Beautiful scenery and homes. 😂 on the trash can outside your caravan. I would normally have that kind of luck.

Could not be happier than to arrive home and find you guy's and the video that made me chuckle more than once.

Aladino was likely destined to Swiss watch mastery, but instead applied that mastery to Sailboats 🙌
Love the mirror finish and salmon looks delicious another beautiful video 👍
Nice to see my home province in your TH-cam channel guys. The varnish looks great 👍🏼
This was a lovely episode and really nice to see "behind the scenes" too. The coachroof and deck looks absolutely stunning. I could learn a lot about attention to detail from Aladino!
great video looking forward to sailing both your boats Regards Paul
I really respect your hard work.
This is a kind of a love story; the love to a boat, the love to a challenge, the love to an idea. I Love it! Thanks!

Hi, the visual image's used of masts and sky when talking about the future was very effective (good) for me,{around min 11:22 of video} particularly in relation to connecting your present hard work and sacrifice to an imagined outcome that you mentioned later. (I really hope that it was a creative decision), bye Duncan
I just follow you guys since a couple lf months but i didn’t know u where so close to my hometown called Sneek. If i ever see the magic carpet out sailing i will definitely say hi!
Thank you for the varnish inspiration! I also love epifanes, next time I will put a plastic tent up, great idea!
A dust control option is industrial width ‘kitchen’ cling/ sticky wrap. I have seen it used to good effect in Tiland. Set up in sheets or as walls in and around paint areas. Another option I know of is a positive pressure ahead, or my local years uses a big vacuumed blower to keep forging air out on the plastic tents they build, Kline yours.
Your craft of story telling continues to amaze and delight! Thank you so much for sharing.
Like to see you are sailing again.
Strain the varnish through a stocking...then before adding the finish coat ..sand with the minimum grade as possible...almost paper
when doing a clean room, which is what Alidino is doing, you need to have a positive pressure, and to run the incoming air through a HEPA filter.
Excellent as usual! Thanks XXX 🙂
