I like you guys, you're entertaining. I give you respect for just being out there doing it, but mesmerized with the repairs... it's like watching a train-wreck that I cannot look away from.
@magna viator check my channel I just sold my 80' Pichotti yacht for scrap price... then i drove it 100mi for the new owner ,,, why? even though it was 1000 times better than this Cat it was a life time of work...
Hi there. A hint: never close a hole inside the boat before you have closed the one outside from which the leak originates. You might get water ingress that will damage the boat severely. I suggest you learn the how to do refits from other channels such as Boatworks Today, SailLife, A boat called Wanda, etc. Good luck and regards from Switzerland. Silvano
I would second the comment boat works today is a channel that I have learnt a lot from and I have been learning by trial and error since before we had youtube for such things. On an old sailcraft hull that is as osmosis ridden as they have here, injecting is not the worst option in terms of repair, if I recall correctly this generation of hull is solid fibreglass of the chopped strand variety, so provided they are using a resin that is compatible with the original and are not relying on this for structural repairs it should work quite well on this type of layup. Anything structural that has gone soft is a cut it out and lay it up properly job in my book. I am interested to see how the sugar scoops work as I have been trying to work out how the rudders normally mounted there are replaced in this setup and how that would affect the sailing of the boat.
I will have to give you guys credit for your enthusiasm and blind ambition. More has been done with less and people have died on "Unsinkable" ships. I am not a religious man, so to speak, but I WILL be praying for you!
I have posted this remark on some of your other vids but dont know if youve seen it. You do not appear to have any rudders which is ok when you have the outboard going but under sail you will have no steering. The sugar skoop added extensions are where they need to hang. I am a Mk 2 Iroquoise owner in the UK
I don't think this boat is going to ever sail. They're making it a power boat I think. Rudders wild help with that too, but they don't really have to have them ..
@@johnfoster3286 yeah. Can't quite figure that either. But they had a conversation in last video that I thought indicated they were getting rid of the mast support inside the cabin for more room. I might not have understood it though. But they are sure a long way from sailing. Maybe they'll tell us their plans....
@@VideoServicesVB If they take the mast support away they will not be able to walk on the roof. (Mine flexis when I walk on it due to the balsa core gone soft.) The other thing is the hull shape is not ideal for extensive power boating.
@@johnfoster3286 I would agree. I thought it odd that they were talking about that. Sailing and rigging that boat will be quite a challenge. They would surely need those rudders then. Lol Said they were headed to FLA. Maybe they going there to refit
You guys are doing great, I just bought an old American Mariner 7.0 and look forward to this spring to get it Bristol Shape. I know I will make mistakes, so don't get discouraged and don't pay too much attention to those critics. Happy sailing...
Jess is adorable -- did you find her in a magical forest or something ? So much work to do, but you guys are really getting alot done and I'm sure it will feel more like a home soon. Really enjoying these videos and wishing I lived closed so I could sand or paint something for you guys. ;) Cheers and be safe on your journey to Florida.
Don't kid yourself. There is a huge difference in proper marine material, like tinned wiring, switches, stainless steel items, fairing & bedding compounds, and hardware store quality material. Don't diss marine supply stores. You can learn now and spend a little more up front for proper marine supplies, or you can learn the hard way later - use hardware store stuff and end up redoing the whole project.
The theme of this channel is "learning the hard way". Just look at them putting so much work into a boat where the bolted hull to deck join has literally been sawn off...
Never laughed at comments this much, it would seem the majority are in favour of something resembling a train wreck and the rest are taking the piss on the repair work undertaken on a cheap and valueless cat. Whatever floats your boat, but original you guys are at that...happy to watch and go along for the ride.
it wasn't cheap. they actually paid $3000 for that. I would say they can use it as an expensive learning experience and next time they will know better, but they also bought a "house" boat before this that is just as bad or worse. so it might take a couple more of these, or the money running out...
9to5less why? Wouldn’t videos of you following proper technique be more helpful to everyone- including yourselves? Seems kinda like you’re just unwilling to take the time to learn proper techniques. I suspect this series is more about the videos than the boat.
Cross beams inside the cabin stiffen the ceiling... and I don't see any on your boat. I suggest fix any holes in the whole boat and put in (thickened resin) some wooden beams on your ceiling so you can walk on it safely. Probably laminate those beams as everything is curved. Just thinking ya know.
If you are doing painting, sanding, bondo, etc. Put a layer of vasoline on your skin (not thick, just like lotion). Makes clean up a lot easier. Keeps stuff from sticking to you, hands, face, etc
Long day but you got so much done. Its gonna be a heck of an adventure fixing this boat up. Thanks for taking us along and providing some inspiration. By the way when you get to the point that you are going to apply the vynal stickers for the boat name and port etc let me know and I'll let you in on some trade secrets for making it not only look good but also last a long time.
Guys, I love your enthusiasm and work ethic, and I know you couldn't afford to do this any other way ... but I'm a Mechanical Engineer, ex-Navy Bosun's Mate, sailboat owner, submarine designer, and all around boat guy, so PLEASE listen when I tell you that boat is supposed to have a bolted hull to deck joint, and leakage will be the least of your problems the first time you try to put any load on a sailing rig. That thing is literally going to pull itself apart. The phrase "death trap" springs to mind, and while it might get you a lot of views, dying for a TH-cam video is probably beyond the pale. There are so many of us in the comments warning you to get safety gear for a reason. Best of luck to you, you're going to need it.
Less holes is always progress, more seaworthy than before but still a long way to go. You'll need to cut the sugar scoops off if you intend to fit a transom hung rudder 👍
You need to replace that rub rail at some point. You will kiss a few piling from time to time and you don’t want that fiberglass taking the hit directly. Love the Jimmy Buffett music. That plays continually on our boat! Really enjoying your videos.!
And I have been doing fiberglass and painting boats for a living sense 1976 I have rebuilt two large catamaran. I really like the design of your boat. I have checked out videos on TH-cam of boats like yours. I have one suggestion buy a four and a half inch high speed grinding use twenty four grit sanding disk it will speed things up try Harbor Freight
If you want a sheet of plywood to conform to a contour...set the skill saw to 1/2 the depth of the plywood thickness and slice parallel lines about an inch apart the length of the plywood...it will bend easily to fit the contour and not stress the hull and it will be stronger...also make sure your using Marine Plywood ... Regular Plywood will delaminate very quickly.
Put 2 outboard motors on her and make it a powerboat. You are busy so you won't have a lot of time to sail. Bondo,is a bad idea even as a temporary hole filler it shrinks in weird ways.get some pumps in your binge and stop your leaks
Hammertime AK these people departed for a trip without even a radio. My guess is “those cost money and we’re just young and quirky so our plucky attitude will act as our work pad”
I'm sorry ,the socks just melted me.. But ,there's a boat ,and your doing well. Get a decent life raft and epirb! Top is handrail Side is rubrail , proper term is quarter gaurd.
Can't ... stop ... watching ... !!! Like many have said, the slow motion train wreck. Hoping for the best but expecting the worst is mesmerizing! Btw, lot of people bashing West Marine... for those without a commercial account, they WILL price match! Once you figure out how to work with them, they become the best store around!
.... Pho is the best .... things sure a re taking shape action packed few days ... never stop chasing the dream ... have fun be safe, save our oceans .....
Hey Peter! Yea it is. Especially on a cold night. We are gonna whip this thing into the best shape we can quickly and go down to Florida to complete the rest.
@@9to5less ... yes that would be more accommodating weather wise .. how much of a lag do you have on your videos, for all I know you may have already finished your refit ... take care Trevor and Jess .....
@11:32 is mast not coming to Florida with you? @2:06 West Marine might be expensive but they do have EVERYTHING you'll require to pass a safety inspection from USCG or other LEO you might encounter @7:22 Looool at that song
I wonder what the plan is and the reason for the Quick and Dirty approach? I do not know the construction but given your approach if it is Plywood core there is a fair chance you are actually sealing in moisture into the core not generally considered a good idea. Plus relying on a paint job to waterproof the transverse. It looks like you are going for the pure powerboat approach so lck of mast sails and rudders should not be a problem or the rusty chainplates I see you have. So is it a case to just to motor inland or coastal? for a year or two before a complete rebuild or scrapping is required. You should get a lot of fun for your money and learn a lot towards a newer boat. I would say though a liferaft epirb and a auxiliary motor and second radio is definitely required
Glenn edwards oh did they get a primary radio? Last trip they just used their cell phones. Someone at one of the locks should have told them to stop until they can get a radio. IIRC it’s required to have a radio.
Hello friends! Just find you here! Hole in the roof might be drain holes for condensation in the balsa core, be shore moistre is out between inner & outer shell. Best of luck for youre fast rehaul. /No winter temp Sweden here!
I was just cringing. Screws through the bottom of the boat. Best of luck. But looking through the videos looks like y’all made it to Florida. Not the way I would repair my boat. :). But if your happy with the results that’s what matters.
I just notice there wasn't a trampoline on the front. Are you going to build a platform of some sort where the trampoline used to be for more space topside? Or are y'all going to get a new trampoline for it?
So wait a minute!! You’re taking off for Florida with no sails and that outboard setup just like you started with??!! What’s the point of taking it to Florida? Are you going to restore it over the winter somewhere warmer?
Yes, West Marine is high, but they do price match any price you might find in another store or online. Also, you might consider taking your outboard off of your boat when you are in a boat yard for any length of time. Small outboards have a tendency of disappearing when you are not around. Good luck.
I like your videos! Just my experience, but I agree on the West Marine comment. It's a shame that the only time they have a reasonable price on anything is when it's 'on sale'. And even then it's still more than the dozen other places I get marine supplies... West could do better if they wanted to.
Starting to look like a boat! I think it rained every 3 days here in VA this past summer. Could not get ANYTHING done. And yes, definitely avoid west marine.
You guys are scaring the hell out of me...Bondo and Saltwater...what could happen...shiver. The reason I mention it is that filler ingredients include talc which will absorb moisture and fail. It's ok for the interior fixing minor repairs but you used it on the bottom of the cabin to cover fasteners that went thru the fiberglass....
Love the the vids Guys as for the comments I am reading some quite negative, however re confirm youre goals and of course budget has a lot to do with it. trying not to be negative you mentioned you had epoxy use it not bondo,it absorbs water if not sealed same as silicone it is for storm windows and lady's >>>> you know! temp not permanent .May the love of God fulfill youre sols >>geter done get going stay off the ocean out side for that cat is not an option
Good episode. Especially the photo bomb attempt. You really need to watch some how-to videos though. Love love love the addition to the end subscribe whisper. "Everybody's doing it."
I hate to bring this up but you must get that motor running in tip top shape ck impeller for sure there are so many things that can go boom in the night you must ck your life could depend on it!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is nice that the rear steps were added. They just need some primer and paint. This is the type of project that I would try and do...
Hardcore driven people Trevor and Jess. In a good way
You guys are really tearing into that catamaran. Nice job! I look forward to the next upload.
Thanks! Yea we have no time to wait! Bare minimum and then down to Florida!
Since we know each other well it’s even cooler being able to follow along with you man

@@CormacMacCormac gotta laugh, maybe his aiming at the comedy value of the channel.
I think most of the comments are from people who do not even own a boat and would never even try to do half the things they are
CormacMacCormac their motive is to get paid for making videos- not to end up with functional boats. Everyone has an angle.
I'm inspired to buy a fixer upper now that I know all I need is some paint, plywood, epoxy, sander and some knee socks.
It is nice to see someone doing videos of exactly what not to do.... Lol

Look up Andy with Boat work to day and watch all his tapes on fiberglass from patches to full lay ups You will learn alot
If andys watching this he's either laughing his ass off or crying his eyes out , maybe he will comment and let us know which one 😀
And I thought Zingaro was in rough shape. RIP S/V Zingaro

Great progress!
Lol @ went to wal-mart and home depot, good luck kids, keep to your dreams.
You guys are learning quite a bit about boats. Hope you catch up with real time pretty soon.. 👍
I wonder what the plan is and the reason for the Quick and Dirty approach? I do not know the construction but given your approach if it is Plywood core there is a fair chance you are actually sealing in moisture into the core not generally considered a good idea. Plus relying on a paint job to waterproof the transverse. It looks like you are going for the pure powerboat approach so lck of mast sails and rudders should not be a problem or the rusty chainplates I see you have.
So is it a case to just to motor inland or coastal? for a year or two before a complete rebuild or scrapping is required. You should get a lot of fun for your money and learn a lot towards a newer boat. I would say though a liferaft epirb and a auxiliary motor and second radio is definitely required
there is no plan,,, but to make videos
Glenn edwards oh did they get a primary radio? Last trip they just used their cell phones. Someone at one of the locks should have told them to stop until they can get a radio. IIRC it’s required to have a radio.
Hello friends! Just find you here! Hole in the roof might be drain holes for condensation in the balsa core, be shore moistre is out between inner & outer shell. Best of luck for youre fast rehaul. /No winter temp Sweden here!
Sanding fiberglass with no breathing protection. Awesome!
Yea we’ll pick up some respirators before we get back to work
is it going to have sails and a mast?
Nope. All motor
Then why not buy a motor cruiser. Alot more room. That hull isnt built for extensive motoring.
Hey! Love watching the progress! Are you gonna power and steer different ?
I was just cringing. Screws through the bottom of the boat. Best of luck. But looking through the videos looks like y’all made it to Florida. Not the way I would repair my boat. :). But if your happy with the results that’s what matters.
I remember when you guys first took it home. And the owner jumped off the boat. You actually live near me. I'm in Portsmouth
Nice! Yea James is great! Too cold now. Gotta head south
Good job... she looks good...
I just notice there wasn't a trampoline on the front. Are you going to build a platform of some sort where the trampoline used to be for more space topside? Or are y'all going to get a new trampoline for it?
It actually came with a trampoline so we are gonna set that up for the time being. Going to help so much!
@@9to5less Oh, that's good. That will give you a lot more space to relax & enjoy. Probably a good spot to sit & fish too. LOL
So wait a minute!! You’re taking off for Florida with no sails and that outboard setup just like you started with??!! What’s the point of taking it to Florida? Are you going to restore it over the winter somewhere warmer?
it's looking a lot better :)
