As a lifetime woodworker, yep, it's that easy! Something you forgot to mention as you were doing the sanding properly is to always go in the direction of the grain. Looking forward to the fiberglass repair!
Great video also you can tell your viewers to soak your teak oil rags in water and don't let them stay bunched up in the Sun or they will combust and catch on fire
I'm about to pull the trigger on a Hatteras 72 and you just answered one of my questions as many of the windows in the births have this same water streak discoloration. Thanks!
That would be nice, but we can't hold enough fuel. We have a 5-600 mile range. One day we hope to swap out the engines for electric motors. Maybe then.
Awesome I'm all for the extra different stuff on the Vlog and that was a Great tip as I agree many go to big expenses to fix stuff were a simply Solution works thank you
Not sure. A lot. But a lot of it is upgrades as well. The nice thing about working on the boat, is, for the most part, I find it enjoyable. Not always, but most times!
3M VHB Heavy Duty Mounting Tape 4910. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007Y7EY6I/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 RVers use it to mount solar panels to the roof of their vehicles. I figured if it can withstand going 75 miles per hour down a highway, it should be good on our boat.
Great video - can you give me the specific teak oil you used? I bought the clear and didn’t get the same results, What’s the part number or name for color? It seems as though in the video it’s much darker on the rag than the clear - thank!
Thanks for the video Ed! Is your teak a veneer over something else (e.g., marine plywood) or is it solid teak? I have a veneer (perhaps 1/16" thick), so sanding has to be done very carefully so as not to sand through the veneer. Thanks!
Don't take it to heart Gary. This is a guy who shows up to the circus every time it is in town so he can build himself up by pretending he is better than the dwarfs because he is taller. Just another heckler in the audience without the courage to step on stage.

Yes, I should have mentioned that. The Fiberglass video will probably be next week, or the following.
@@tryingnottosink9107 Awesome! Thank you

I know that, and should have mentioned it.
Love the repair vlogs as much as the travel vlogs. For someone who has owned a boat most of my life (lake boat). I know how much work boats are.
Thanks. Many more to come.

Glad we could help.
Love this repair video, I could watch someone else work all day. 😂😂
You and me both!
Good use of elbow grease! Great tip,thanks
Glad you liked the video!
Great video! A big fan of the short tutorials
Glad you like them!
Boiled linseed oil works great as well for interior wood work.
Nice video Ed, Short and sweet and to the point,
Thanks.
Great job Captain
Thanks!
when I got my boat the previous owner left a few gallon jugs of that star brite teak oil it works pretty good I even had enough to do the teak decks.
Nice. I love their Streak Remover!
I would love to see a trip to Europe on this boat !
It Would be grat to see management of range issues !
That would be nice, but we can't hold enough fuel. We have a 5-600 mile range. One day we hope to swap out the engines for electric motors. Maybe then.
Time for a drink !
I’ll drink to that! 🍸🍹🍾🧉🍷
That happened immediately after!

Thanks!
I love it.. Great tip Captian Ed
Glad you enjoyed it
what's up with the windless electrical issue?
New video out today, explaining the problem.
Nice video, thanks. I am wondering how many hours a year do you spend maintaining your boat?
Not sure. A lot. But a lot of it is upgrades as well. The nice thing about working on the boat, is, for the most part, I find it enjoyable. Not always, but most times!
@@tryingnottosink9107 thanks
thanks, nice vid allways fooking for new tips
Glad you found the video helpful.
Older Hatteras had oiled mahogany interiors. Are you sure that's teak? It's beautiful.
Yes, Afromosia teak.
Easy 1 2 3
Nice job, but what I'd like to know is what tape that was you had used to hold down the solar panels?

Ed , I enjoyed the video, I am surprised at the sandpaper grit , wouldn’t 220/320 give a better finish ?
You may be right. I am not a good wood-worker. It is just the first thing I tried and it worked well.
Great video - can you give me the specific teak oil you used? I bought the clear and didn’t get the same results, What’s the part number or name for color? It seems as though in the video it’s much darker on the rag than the clear - thank!
I am not at the boat and do not remember, but I bought it at Lowes. Sanding is key!
a little oxalic acid (cabots deck clean) would have improved the result before oiling.
Thanks for the tip.
Thanks for the video Ed! Is your teak a veneer over something else (e.g., marine plywood) or is it solid teak? I have a veneer (perhaps 1/16" thick), so sanding has to be done very carefully so as not to sand through the veneer. Thanks!
The walls are teak veneer and the trim is solid teak. It does not take much sanding. I just do it by hand and it works well.
First!

@@tryingnottosink9107 haters gonna hate
This is not a repair! Always find the root cause of the leak, perhaps rebedding the porthole is a good start.
The leaks had already been fixed before I did the teak.
