    You found a highly skilled, honest, fair, craftsman who does super high quality work at value and delivers on schedule. That’s like a super unicorn. Congrats on finding such a rare specimen of marine tradesman!

    It turned out perfect. Looks like it was factory integrated in the design. So much more solar also=more hairdryer time, lol.

    That is a professional job for a good price, well done Stuart. It's nice to see another Brit doing great work abroad. I make gantries for boats in Greece (normally when not locked down) and I am a professional Fabrication, Welding Technician. Your comment about "not asking" is absolutely true. Many boat owners get ripped off by hiked prices all over the world, so don't be afraid to ask around.

    He is some skilled fabricator to make something so absolutely exactly what you want. I absolutely love it. He should start a business solely making solar arches that consumers can simply cut in the middle and fit to their boat's width - if that is possible.

    Buy the way, 20-22 min is kinda the standard average of the sailing vlogging system of most successful vloggers on a weekly basis. Often the shorter ones, 8-10 min kinda leave one hanging or the detail zips by rather quickly and we all want to see our faves for a bit longer. 🙂🙂 ❤️⛵️

  • @davidmalone9022
    @davidmalone9022 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The thing I love about arches, as Ryan's pull-up (?) demonstrated, is the added hand hold overhead. It may not be as important on a dual helm boat, but on a single helm having something firm to hold while stepping around the helm is priceless. What a great job!

  • @willhatting5646

  • @grantmyers7593

    Ryan & Sophie it's obvious that Polar Seal is your boat. I've never seen a lady (Sophie) more in love with a boat in my life. Sophie you care about Ryan, that's obvious too. But the work and care that you both have put into her amazes me. Love your video's weather they are long or short there always informative and just plain old fun to watch. I wish you both fair winds and calm sea's on all of your journey's.

    GORGEOUS! The Arch, I mean. Sophie ALWAYS is. I LIKE how it turned out. You two are So GREAT together, you Compliment each other very well. Ryan's Level-headedmess keeps a lid on Sophie's bubbly exuberance, yet Sophie's personality keeps Ryan from sinking into the rut of simple practicality. This way the two don't get Carried Away and Shoot Off into Space, nor do you lapse into the doldrums of Same Old Same Old or SSDD. WONDERFUL! And the Seal looks Great, too, like she got a Big Spoiler on the back, to keep her Steady at 85 knots. WORTH EVERY DIME.

    @barrysummers1622 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Looks brilliant guys, that looks real good, that guy Stuart is sure good. Just think about one thing though, if you find yourself having to hide from a hurricane it is best to be able to take them solar panels off, of course you do not want them damaged or ripped off but the main thing is windage, the less windage the boat has the better off you are, I have been put over on my side and thats with everything off and stowed below, but because of less windage the boat could come up again and was not pinned down, just something to think about.

  • @randyd4456
    @randyd4456 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow! What a great addition to the boat. I can really appreciate the skill of a talented welder. When I was in airframe and power plant school my instructor told me he would give me a passing grade on the welding block on a promise I would never weld anything on or for an aircraft and that I would get a competent welder. Lol. He never said anything about boats tho lol.
    I'm sure you'll see just how nice that extra shade is when in the south pacific. I learned how to sail in the China sea on a Catalina with a bimini the size of a large umbrella and mid day in the cockpit was brutal. It was always a fight to find shade and then keep it without someone else wanting to put you over for that small space. I didnt see any fishing rod holders tho. Ha ha, with Sof's luck fishing you it might be a loss to bother with them. Sorry Sofie 😉

    This is Tommy withe the Hanse 531 FLYER II, who disturbed you briefly having your lunch last Wednesday. It was great ‘hi’ to you in Almerimar. I am sorry we did get to talk a bit more, but we had to get our mainsail fixed and move on asap. We sailed the day after and arrived in Lagos on the 13th, and are going to stay until the first week of July, when I will get back with the family, to sail her the last of the way to Denmark. New arch looks great 😊⚓️

  • @WillN2Go1
    @WillN2Go1 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Looks great. Good tip: Watch the workers making your arch: Like antifouling paint - did they apply the expensive stuff you paid for? Or is it house paint tinted the same color? (Is that real anchor chain or that garbage that comes from that place in Florida?) With a stainless steel arch - you want to make sure you get the gauge of metal (wall thickness), and alloy number that's required - not something that looks great until you sail over the horizon and get some salt on it.
    TH-camr Colin Furze does a lot with tubing. Scroll through the thumbnails of his (crazy) videos and select the images that have tubing in them. You'll see him laying it out, cutting the curved ends and welding. I know some of the techniques involved, but I still learned a lot from him. From his videos you can also see how to DIY a project like this, but also why its worth paying a professional. And after seeing one of Furze's videos you'll be able to immediately tell the shop you're thinking of hiring cuts the first complex angle (for your project or for someone else's). Do they know what they're doing or just winging it?
    Also as a former carpenter, figure it out/fix-it, go to guy: If you don't know the task there's no way you can trick the worker into thinking you do. You can however, judge the level of confidence/insecurity of the worker - never work with flakes, liars, or people quick to anger. Good people can hem and haw a bit that's okay. And make sure you pay them what the job is worth. Estimating and doing the work are often two completely different skill sets. If a good person makes an honest mistake and has to buy more materials - be a good person and pay for most of that cost.

    • @RyanSophieSailing
      @RyanSophieSailing  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      All good points. The person making our arch was a real pro and use to make a lot of movie sets and other things, so he is creative and good at his work. I believe he has made over 300 arches for boats so the guy understand needs and requirements.

    Going for the best looking option is also a good choice in terms of the resell value of the boat.

      Totally agree! Even though we rarely think about the day she needs to go on the market :) (we love this boat too much for that 😊)
