![LISA - ROCKSTAR (Official Music Video) REACTION [SHE'S BACK!]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/QBxE30vavMQ/mqdefault.jpg)
I absolutely love Miss Sierra's narration on this episode!! Hilarious stuff. Frankly I can't believe it's the same girl I remember from the early adventures. She seemed so shy back then. Little did we knw what a character she really is!! Really enjoyed this on. Thanx for the share
I was thinking exactly the same thing, never forget billy skate boarding around south Florida with a transmission on his back
That would be Mrs. Sierra.
@@brantleychuck Billy is a boss. Does he have an engineering degree or something?
Congrats on reaching this stage. As a thought, when the boat is ready to haul-across-the-water, take a trip to the Alameda boat yard that kicked you out. Ask to dock for an afternoon. Take a trip into town to allow them to see what you've done. Remember how inflexible they were in making you move. The quality of this new boat will rub it in.
I wouldn't bother. Ef 'em. Let bygones be bygones.
I told you when you guys first started that you have the most infectious personality of all the videos I watch. I normally don't watch much of the upfit videos out there, but and that lucky guy of yours make them fun. Older, disabled so I live vicariously here in my home office in South Carolina. I wish I was in a better financial situation to help you guys in that way, but fixed income and groceries now about double doesn't leave much fun money. Love and Prayers to ya'll, I'll continue to like and comment to do my best help in that way.
You are transforming this former old tub into a really beautiful boat. You should really be proud of what you are doing and what you have done.
Wow, you both worked your Ass for this and you should be so proud ♥️ Can't wait to see it in the water🌈🥂🥰🌄🦋🐋
Personally myself if would sift the sand onto the deck. You have more control on how it looks. If you mix the sand in with the paint. You don’t really know if it’s going to come out evenly when you apply it to the deck. 👍👍👍
One idea when you realized you were running out of soft sand, might have been to mix the two different materials together for the transition area to hopefully make it less noticeable that two different products were used.
So excited for you guys. This is going to be an epic boat. I love it when you do Trawlers. Thats why I started following you to begin with. You guys are an awesome couple and team.
Thank you for taking us along during your boat rehab. Looking forward to seeing your completed project! Hello from Maine. All the best to you two. My Family has been watching from the get go. I have pretty much watched you two grow up like my two children. Your parents must be so very proud of you two.
This made my day! We cannot WAIT to see the splash video. xo from FL
Solid work, amazing transformation, good work Bill and Sierra always a joy watching you tow work your magic,
I've just done the deck/cabin top on my steel 34' Van De Stadt, everything has an epoxy primer and epoxy fairing compound on it, I used a water based automotive stone chip primer with sifted plaster sand, same technique as you did, one coat, add sand while wer and then three coats over that, I made a custom light grey mixing standard medium grey and white and it came out absolutely fantastic, it only cost me the princely sum of 80$ for the whole job, I used 15 litres in total. I painted the entire superstructure, toe rails and deck for less than two gallons of your rubber sand😎😎, epoxy primer, epoxy top coat and non skid for around 350$ total for a 34' monohull, the sh1t you do to save $ after buying a brand new hydrovane, new sails, new solar panels and victron charge controller/batteries, new pushpit, arch and Bimini frame, life raft, running rigging, cushions and upholstery, refrigeration, irridium satellite communications etc.etc.etc.etc.etc.etc,
Buy a boat they said, it'll be fun they said 😂😂😂😂😂
18 months later, leaving Cape Town for a single handed Atlantic crossing in December a full year, and lots of $$$ later than originally planned 🤔🤔🙄🙄🙄
Really admire your hard work, attention to detail, problem solving skills and your determination to stick to your schedules!! Keep up the terrific work!!
Very thorough and honest review of a product. Thank you!!!
There is a wire brush attachment for recip saws. Saves your joints and is faster than muscle power.
I had no idea lol thank you!
I had no idea lol thank you!
@@scottmaillet9775 I can tell you the product name if you need it.
What an amazing job you two have done on this vessel
I cannot believe how much work you to have gotten done in such a short time. It really feels like only last month you started this project. I really cannot wait to see it done.
My definitely cannot wait to see you guys out on the water again. At least this time you can point the boat in the direction you want to go and not worry about the wind. I have a cost more for gas but it is a lot easier to operate then your sailboat.
As always I made sure to give you a big old thumbs up. And of course I am a subscriber been following you guys from the beginning.
Good job you guys, I'm happy for you guys that you guys managed to get this boat ship shape. Once again good job thumbs up
They really have the boats close together. Close working quarters. Good job!
Your boat is looking mighty fine due to all the work y'all put into it. Good Job!
I'm loving the new boat you guys are working like crazy good job guys going to be sweet when you guys get done an see what you guys get into 💪💪💪
It is going to look so good sitting back in the water...So clean and bright... really good work guy's.
Well done, bloody awesome you two!! Shirts look great!
What an outstanding transformation! Great work!
Really enjoyable video. Looking forward to the finished video. GOD bless, JC
What a hell of a different, from the beginning when you bougt the boot and now. Great yob you 2 did.
You are doing great guys! We're not missing one of your episode and you give us inspiration 💪🌈
Cool project love it good content look forward to it every week
Nice job Tula team! Looks amazing!! Keep rolling!! 👍👍👊👊🛠🛠💪💪
I would go with the soft sand and quality paint like you used. I think you did a fantastic job. What a great investment and for only a dollar. That's awesome!
It should be up to Jetty about what feels best on the feet. Jetty is the only crew member that I never see wearing proper boat shoes.
@@BobWiersema I don't think Jetty knows the difference or even cares.
I’m sure you are already splashed, but on the TH-cam time line I’m soooo excited for you two. Great work, great videos, and great inspiration.
Great job!
When I worked on ships we always just use sand blasting grit for nonskid but it would wear a pair of sneakers out in 4 months and rip hide off if you fell on it but you could take 30 degree rolls on a wet deck and never loose your footing. Good job guys the boat is looking great. Cant wait to see what's next.
Great review of the rubberized sand vs regular sand... You bring up very valid points on the pros and cons of each...
When I did my non-skid deck years ago, I used a non-skid grit from the Marine store that mixed with the paint and it worked well..
Yeah it seems to me as long as you mix the paint-grit mix before each application you should be good to go.
A reason for not using beach sand or dredged sand is to avoid any salt content which would cause spalling over time particularly at sea, which is avoided by using desert sand.
Looks Great!
Those shirts are sweet! It really is amazing watching you guys transform this boat.
Boat is looking so good!!!! Great work!
I used tuff coat when I redid my skiff. Iv had it on there for 5 years now and use a 3000psi pressure washer to clean it
pros it was easy to apply , simi cheap, multiple colors to choose from, cool to walk on and durable
Cons heard to clean without a pressure washer. Took 3 coats, shows dirt(based on color)
Great video y’all keep them coming
Was great to meet you guys this morning, looking forward to seeing the rest of the resto project!
If that trawler/modified tugger had legs it would do a back flip about twenty times thanks you guys bringing her back to her glory days awesome job guys love ya
Was it worth it? Only you can say;) Easy for us watching from afar. I'm a huge fan of you and what you're doing to bring an ol' yacht back to life. Awesome!
Another #OfTheEpic episode. Just a quick heads up. You could literally turn the camera on and let it run for 4 to 5 hours and 98% of us will watch the entire thing. Just saying LOL you too are full-blown punk rock stars. lol 🤙🏼🍻🍿🍺 awesome post. Thank you.
The boat is looking great!!! Can't wait to see it out cruising around doing Trawler stuff!!! Lol
When laying down this kind of nonskid, it’s smart to do a light sanding after first coat of paint on top of the nonskid particles. Just to take of the most pointy parts, before you put down the next layers of paint. This will make it less aggressive on your feet, ropes and other equipment. And a lot easier to clean.
Wouldn't that knock off too much of the particles and leave an uneven surface?
Great job!!!
Congrats on getting the entire outside of the boat completely finished and painted. I was wondering what you are going to do about the engines? I believe that one isn't working if I remember correctly. I think it would be in your best interest to rebuild them from the heads up. Unless you have to pull the pistons and crankshaft. Make sure that you have brass freeze out plugs and do a new head gasket and timing chain. Plus a tune up and fresh oil and fluids.
I thought I remember them saying they both worked.
Love your show u guys are the “BEST”
We just redid our decks with soft sand. The decks are much cooler to walk on in the hot sun and heat I have found.
I'm certainly looking forward to you guys splashing your boat. It's not that I don't like the boat work videos, I do but I like the floating videos better. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
We restored a 53’ 1939 boat. It took five years and lots of sweat and $$$$. That was 25 years ago. Was it worth it? ABSOLUTELY! Would we do it again? Absolutely NOT!
It's easy to get sick of anything after 5 years. I like the way they are doing this boat. They will be able to enjoy it very quickly. Even if it's not perfect. I think that's the key. Kind of like a rolling restoration on a car. It's never taken off the road.
Hear hear!. I’m on rebuild number five….. Somehow I always get sucked in for just one more project.
Amen! 5 years to refit a steel ketch. Glad I did it, but never again haha
Age and time makes all of us not wanting to repeat our history. Good for you, enjoy every moment on it.
The whole project has been a big win for your waiting time for your new boat to be built. Can't wait to see the finish. Please show more over veiw of finished sections. Want to see areas you have done, not just a small, quick,peek.
The boat looks fantasticly beautiful you guys did a nice job .😁
Nice Job, and a great home. Enjoy
Just bought the Boat works t-shirt. Love the design.
Amazing work
She’s really looking good. Can’t wait to see her splash. 👍👍
Kudos for working so hard while waiting. I just hope that seawind is working this hard to get your boat ready.
I am sure seawind is going gangbusters on their new boat. They have six hulls out of the mold now.
Yall should just go nuts 1 week and do an hour long episode. I know Id watch the heck out of it.
We use fine glass beads that are used in the vapour blasting industry. Much gentler on the hands and knees if you trip or fall.
Boat looks great!!!
Thank goodness your done out side . Now you can rebuild a engine or 2 . Or a transmission lol . You guys worked hard on this job God bless you two
Wow so great to watch your videos as I learn so much about sailing as well as boat maintenance. When you talked about just using beach sand for the decks & straining out the contaminants, I think you would want to rinse it good with fresh water to get out most of the salt as that is a corrosive material. Just saying love your channel. Aloha!!
Love and Respect. God bless
Great video thank you! I wonder if the rubberized sand would wear down faster once you wear through the top coats of paint.
Hello all from Siesta Key Florida
Looking good guys
It doesn't look like the same ship!😱🤔🥲what a great job 👏
I have used aquarium (fish tank) sand for my fordeck and it came out great and it was cheap.
The trimaran off your port bow is a
Jim brown ,sea runner 37' its an amazing performing boat , 6kt to windward bare pole ! Only boat I've ever been on that could do that. But it didn't want to sit still on the hook .
I've never been so excited to see tape coming off!
Get to the cruising videos! The boat’s cruising up north, I want to see that!
Perhaps you should try and put the rubberised sand on from a higher level to achieve a more even texture finish and also less excess to clean up? Also sand off the beach will have salt in it? May react with the paint?
By the time the non-skid needs to be repainted any paint will erode enough to recoat with a proper wash. A technique we use is roll on paint and with the non-skid particles dry in a spray gun dust an even coat on the wet paint. Topcoat soon as you can with your type of paint.
What kind of spray gun can handle solid particles?
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 Any conventional gun like a Binks 95. 1.8 tip.
I always see some of your boat yard neighbors working on their boats also. Do you have much communication with them? You are wonderful people and I can see where that would happen, and if so, what do they think of your project? Stay safe.
Sand blasting sand is ideal for adding to paint for a non-skid surface.
"Billy thought I was taking to long" 😂😂😂😂 ask Billy to do it! You kids are doing a wonderful job on the trawler.
Edit: bought a trawler for 100.00 dollars, put lot's of time and more money in it. Sharing your life's with us, "priceless". Great work the both of you! BTW, if it's ready for the water, how do you paint the dry dock holder's that you couldn't do while on land?
I bought 2 of the shirts because why knot support you guys. 🍺🥃
Thank you James! We are so grateful!!! ❤️❤️
I like the fact that you don't wear makeup. My wife doesn't either. Good job guys!
Can hardly wait to see it... when you gonna be in the NW or hopefully Victoria B.C.?
I think the real sand is a decent alternative. Years ago I removed deck paint by chipping / scraping. As the paint & sand mixture is a different strength and elasticity to the base material, it should be possible to scrape / chip off.
There’s actually a glass bead non skid Alex seal should have recommended, fine, medium & coarse. West marine has it also
Splash day, woo hoo
LEGENDS 🐾
Looks like you're on the water at the end of the video, can see the sun catching the railings with the swells on the water
I would mix both rubber and sand to stretch it
Select a sand is what you want to use. It has rough and edges. It comes in 3 sizes
I've heard of folks using salt. Paint, sprinkle, let dry, wash off, add topcoat paint.
We've been watching you transform this ugly duckling into a beautiful swan. We are planning to do the same to out 71 33' EggHarbor. Do you have a list of products you used? Sanding tools, papers, rollers, brushes? We are going with the Alexseal paint and primer. Keep up the great work. Love the channel. Rick and Kendall.
I gotta tell ya, Billy. When you run the fast motion footage of deck rolling, it appears to me Young Sierra puts a whuppin on you!
Hey guys I love the show just be careful you have to use sand without minerals in it impurities if it's got iron in it it'll rust through your paint job and you'll never get the color of the rust out of the paint it'll be embedded forever.
Hi guys, I just buy non-skid paint. In my case that is Interdeck made by International. Works great with less hassle, and it's probably cheaper than combining paint and the rubber "sand" ;-)
I would discourage the mixing the sand with the paint method. We did the inside deck of my brothers runabout that way and it was a major pain. It clumped up and left gobs on the edge of the rollers which would then drop of into the painted deck. It came out streaky. My dad did the deck of his boat when we were kids with crushed walnut shells by the sprinkle on method and it was easy and looked great and lasted for years.
and so does he!
Hey Guys @tula's Endless Summer A while back, when y'all owned that catamaran, and you reset the window frames...how difficult/much of a pain in the but was it? I've found a cat that needs some love around the salon and galley bridge deck windows...basically all of them...I should probably walk away lol.
Pool supply store they have sand for sand filters.
I always used b each sand. Drilled holes in a bucket ,put 2 or 3 layers of screen and filled the bucket . Then shook it to let the sand filter thru. Worked for me...then I heard I should have washed it to get the salt out. Still didn't have a problem would I rebuild another one, yes but bigger
Just go buy play sand you can get it at any big box store or sugar sand if in FL
beach sand has hollow particles. be careful what you use. the hollow sand will crush and leave voids.
So you’re sanding the diamonds with a diamond sander? 😂
You both are doing a grand job 👍👍
Do not mix the sand in the paint! It will come out all blotchy. Also for a few bucks more then sand try walnut chips and lay them down in a bed of two part primer. Or do what I did this last time and try Kiwi Grip,just make sure you roll it out extra fine of it will take your skin of when you fall!
