Definitely subscribing. Reminds me of that very excellent channel “My First Boat”, it is in Germany and one boat/ship/yacht/vessel (😁) soon turns into a multitude. Your yacht is such a beautiful shape, such excellent lines makes for a brilliant and worthwhile project. Subscribed.
You've come a long way already, and your beautiful boat is looking better every time. I can't wait to see the final result. Bonne chance and all success!
AH @sirAdamMeek I'm so pleased to find somebody else who does not think I'm crazy for going full electric. I have no idea how I'll pay for the conversion, but I learned to always aim high. and I believe it would be fantastic to propel this beauty forward on electric propulsion.
@@BoatProjectYbrilliant idea. All electric is the way of the future. Sailing Into Freedom channel is building an aluminium cat for the Elcano Challenge which means a circumnavigation with NO fossil fuel. With the massively improving efficiency of solar panels, solar controllers/chargers and battery technology I can see this as a great step forward that may not have been easily achieved even 5 years ago.
Do you mean a hybride? There is a no way to produce enough electricity with solar cells for a power cruising boat. Sailing boat, yes. For auxiliary power.
Last comment I promise…. For now at least. Don’t feel overwhelmed by tinkering with diesel motors, like all internal combustion engines they simply work by logic. You can dismantle them using logic. They have only 3 necessary elements, air, fuel and electricity. Add some lubricants and there’s just the logic as to which is not working if the motor won’t go.
Heihei! Nice work so far, congrats! I‘ve a question regarding the two engines: what would you put inside instead? We have the same engine on our dutch steel vessel - 30 years old, 7000h on it - and in all that time, we never had ANY issue. You wouldn‘t find something as robust as those engines. So may rethink your decision😃 best regards
Yes, thanks for your reply. I read that these are amazing engines, and I hope I can make somebody happy with them. I’ve set my mind on an electric propulsion. And as a result I’m separating from these beasts of an engine
You are making sound and steady progress, although it may not quite feel like that. I hope you can recruit an enthusiast to help revive the propulsion and auxiliary machinery. The team at Sailing Coney (on You Tube too)managed to recruit a handy Brit and he worked wonders for them.😀👍
If you want to clean small parts from corrosion you can put them in a bucket with fosfor acid over night. I have done that many times and the result is very good. Nice to see how your work is moving forvard.
@@BoatProjectY Just flush dem in water and dry with a rag or paper. Then you can paint or what you like to do. Be careful with your eyes and skin while working with it.
Any acid works well on rust, even vinegar is effective. Proprietary rust converters such as the one you used is the best though as it leaves that converted surface suitable for painting. I think angle grinders with specific discs/brushes for rust are the best for rust removal. Needle guns seem used mainly for knocking off the scale after welding. Will you get the yacht out onto the hard for a hull check & repair?
You would have to find a place for the upcoming winter on the shore, pull it out of the water and make the bottom properly ... The deck floor is covered, because it will also have to be seriously processed, what you have now need serious work ...
hello, I was quiet fortunate to cross this boat on my daily cycling route. not far from my home. it took me a full year of negotiating though before we settled on the buy...
I hope somebody can tell me. I heard it has been in Barcelona for a while, serving as a champagne drinking platform , and cruising around in the Mediterranean.
@@BoatProjectY i have a yacht aswell,, and every small job you have to find out how to do it right, and what materials to use... my god you have 1001 jobs! But when its finished you have a great spacious Yacht
you might want to hang on to the generator if you are going all electric. and you should be using it now. those diesel gen set don't use much fuel. 😎💚💙👍👍🍺🍺🍻
If you use a diesel generator then you are not going fossil fuel free. You then travel down the rabbit hole of hybrid drives which can be an expensive proposition. Green hydrogen (which is not a fossil fuel) generator maybe?
Zoals ik reeds zij, uw boot had een zusterschip in Zeebrugge, genaamd Speedy. Het was eigendom van Louis Demeyere aannemer die de uitbreiding vd haven van Zeebrugge deed. Het schip werd omgebouwd om metingen te doen en werd geschipperd door P. Dardenne en lag bij de RBSC in Zeebrugge. What happened next weet ik niet. Cheers.
Your denunciation of electric motors is unfounded. There are superb electric outboards in high kilowatts and inboard motors the same. Supplying enough sunlight or a green hydrogen generator could be the problem. They said the same thing about electric cars and look where they are now. The dinosaurs were popular for a while but they did go extinct and so will ICEs.
I think you should rethink the idea of changing the engines. Study them first! They might be better than new ones. They are basically not more complicated than any other diesel engines.
De l'aide financière j'en veut bien moi aussi...Antigua est à l’arrêt pour minimum 2 ans les finances sont à marée basse et avec un fort coefficient.. Bon courage à toi c’est un beau projet .
@@BoatProjectY I understand that it is huge, and a huge project. I commend you for your work. But don't embellish on what it is, due to the mere size of the boat. Proper terminology negates confusion.
Your definitions of length to differentiate between ships and boats is bogus. Did you make that up? I think we could call it a yacht. “As a general term, the word yacht can refer to any watercraft that isn’t intended to be used to make money, which includes anything from racing sailboats to billionaires’ floating ultra-luxury mansions.”

Boats seem to choose their owners. This one hit the jackpot! Great Job!
what a lovely comment. thank you
Wonderful. I fell in love with your boat as first sight. I can relate.
Thanks for your nice words
Nothing is easy, good job
this is one beautiful boat worth saving
thank you. I agree
Вы большие молодцы. Это и правда удовольствие преображать лодку своими руками❤
Thank you for your nice words

thanks man. I binged all "my first boat" episodes as well. 😆
Just a lick of paint and everything is fine!😉
and a vacuum cleaning.... ;)
Beau travail, bravo!
Merci!
She sure has the making of a beautiful boat ⛵
I agree with you 😜
Mooi schip!!! Succes gewenst!
dank je wel
Thanks for sharing.... Cheers from Portugal
🤙
It has potential if hull is ok,l like it I will watch your progress as Tally Ho is coming to an end.
fingers crossed on the Hull-part, it will be a surprise to us all.
that'll all buff out in no time at all ;)
Sehr schöne Linienführung 🙂
danke, Ich fühle das gleiche ;)
You've come a long way already, and your beautiful boat is looking better every time. I can't wait to see the final result. Bonne chance and all success!
thank you. I've got some amazing beautiful parts lined up , restored by my dad, but that will be for whenever the reconstruction starts again.
Cheers from Sweden,, 🍻😎👍

that's a great idea, do you rinse them off? with what? and then thoroughly dry them I take it?
@@BoatProjectY Just flush dem in water and dry with a rag or paper. Then you can paint or what you like to do. Be careful with your eyes and skin while working with it.
@@BoatProjectY I forget. You must take away grease and oil before you put it in acid.

1 year down and ?? to go.😅 Great achievements so far.
many more to go :)) but still loving it!
Nice have it done by halloween 😊
Almost😂
Mooi schip, lag deze niet in Raamsdonksveer?
Heb je daar documentatie van? Zou leuk zijn om dat te achterhalen.
how do you find a boat like this? , i am looking for a old boat like this to rebuild ,
hello, I was quiet fortunate to cross this boat on my daily cycling route. not far from my home. it took me a full year of negotiating though before we settled on the buy...
What was the original purpose of this boat ?
I hope somebody can tell me. I heard it has been in Barcelona for a while, serving as a champagne drinking platform , and cruising around in the Mediterranean.
@@BoatProjectYeminently suited to a champagne drinking platform. 🍾🥂 😊
so much work, what was the initial purchase price? 1k euro?
yeah lots of fun, I mean work...
@@BoatProjectY i have a yacht aswell,, and every small job you have to find out how to do it right, and what materials to use... my god you have 1001 jobs! But when its finished you have a great spacious Yacht
@@dpost1268 one step at a time
Watching from Australia here...looks like a big job....and what are you doing with the engines....replacing them with electric motors I hope?
exactly my intention!
What did you use at 10:10 ?
hey man, I used RANEX it's a phosphoric acid. I did an in-depth comparison on EP.10 . go check it out.
@@BoatProjectY thanks a lot!
:)) 💪
you might want to hang on to the generator if you are going all electric. and you should be using it now. those diesel gen set don't use much fuel. 😎💚💙👍👍🍺🍺🍻
I lack the knowledge to maintain them and try to start them. oh hell maybe one day I'll just give it a try
@@BoatProjectY if I lived there I would come and help. but I think if you just asked, one of your many viewers would come and help for free.

Hi there, ik zou niet te snel afscheid nemen vd Daf motoren. Nieuwe diesels zijn duur en elektrische motoren, vergeet het. Bonne continuation.
dan zal ik toch een vrijwilliger moeten vinden die de motoren eens onder handen neemt. alvorens die weer op te starten...

It's only 52ft or 16 meters in length. A ship is 100ft or 30.48 meters in length.
Well wait until you have to manually sand it. It feels like 100ft. But I’ll call it a boat if you will.
