Finally someone did a video about the tools used for maintenance!we watch several different channels but you guys are the only ones that have done this.
Love all the practical, real-world sailing stuff. We're part-time coastal cruisers now, building our experience to become full-time passage-makers. Love this kinda stuff. Keep it comin'. Thanks!
Hey Nick I really enjoyed these two! That's life, your nothing without your wrenches, aren't you. Me too and it made me learn a lot. First time I see a channel where these things are explained in such a practical way and it is so vital. I own an LPG driven car since about a year, running on both LPG and fuel. I had to repair both systems hoses, pumps and filters. A repair shop replaced the LPG filter and did not secure the hoses tight enough to the new filter, so it leaked on the gasside. The entire car almost started to burn under my butt. You wane got safely, well you better know how it works and how to get it repaired. Fuel systems in general are often completely underestimated. So well done!! Cheers Roland
I've been putting a toolbox together this week for our new boat, so this is brilliant timing, thanks guys!! Can't wait for part two. Also, these kinds of episodes are *amazing* and please do keep them coming. Not glamorous, but bloody useful...
Nice! The old man especially enjoyed this episode. Yes, keep producing these, so we can learn from you! Looking forward to the electronics spare parts one.
This is a great channel for those who actually own boats (mines an old 30 footer) and like to learn handy stuff from someone who is doing this full time - not just at weekends. We cruised for a year in our early 30’s so really appreciate the insights. There are more than enough channels that cater to non sailors. As a Brit living in Florida for 25 years I really enjoy the humor and hope you two don’t cut down on the swearing too much. Terysa does a great job with the videos and blogs. It looks like perhaps Nick has watched these -I notice he interrupts Terysa less this season - my long suffering American wife says “ look he’s just like you - must be a British thing”
Thanks so much. One place where we splurged for tools was in a set of Stainless screwdrivers and Allen keys by Wera. They don’t leave the ferrous bits in fastener heads so they stay crisp longer. Something to think about when you outfit your new boat. As much as we loved our Amel Mango, cruising 10 years on Tempest and selling in Sydney, we are excited to resume our adventures on our Privilege 42 after 2 years of refit and waiting for somewhere to go. Fair winds.
Just KNEW the double entendres would be flying, LOL. Terrific video, very useful, looking forward to Part 2! As a related idea, it would be great to see what you folks keep in the galley and how you make all the miscellaneous kitchen gadgetry fit into lockers. I've been wondering how to pack away those convenience items that take up so much space in a normal kitchen...
Thanks folks! I’m always excited to see what content you’re going to be sharing! It is all helpful whether for the experienced or for the novice! There is always something to be learned! Cheers!
It helped hearing what you keep aboard for tools and repair supplies; you obviously can't take everything with you but you sure don't want to leave something that turns out to be vital. I recently finished reading "Alone Against the Atlantic" about Gerry Spiess solo navigation across the Atlantic in a 10 foot home-built wooden sailboat back in 1979, and was fascinated by the list included at the end of the book identifying the tools and supplies he took with him! Thanks for sharing!
This is great! My wife and I are about to set sail next month and are doing some last checks to make sure we have the right tools and spares before we leave. Thanks for making this video!
Excellent info. The choices we make on tools and spares to carry on an extended cruise is very important. For those of us planning a voyage, Nick provides exactly the kind of information one needs. Super helpful, so keep it coming and thank you for sharing your unvarnished views, experiences and hard earned wisdom. Your opinions have tremendous value!
Going to school for dentistry and taking a gap year. Bought a sailboat this summer and have been sailing around the Chesapeake bay. Cool to learn thats what you did! Fair Winds!
As a former auto mechanic I have a lot of tools, more than I would ever need on a boat. I learned a lot because I know at some point, I am going to have to down size my inventory. Thanks for sharing.
As always you are one step ahead of the pack. I know it boring to some but anyone considering cruising, this is a great reference point for outfitting a boat. A million sincere thanks for taking the time to do this informative vlog. I hope you are finished with your boat projects and out on the water. Thanks again and fair winds!
I love it. Honestly I would like to see more videos like this and other how-to videos. Seeing the every day maintenance of a yacht is something a lot of travel vloggs leave out, but that's what I (as someone who is saving up now to get their own yacht) want to see. So that when it comes time I know what I need on my house with sails.
Yes we like sailing but videos like this are incredibly useful for those of us who are planning to sail in the future so thank you for the video. This is why I love watching you guys. Wish you all the best.
Truthfully anything you guys put out I'll watch, but I do enjoy watching Nick especially if it gets on a rant but not being a sailor myself seeing the knowledge that he does have or seems to have I can appreciate his interest in the certain tools that he has
It's always a pleasure to know whats in a persons tool box...As always thanks for the informative videos...Will be waiting patiently for the electronic tool box, and bits that keep Ruby Rose sailing...
What could possibly be NOT enjoyable? Double entendres, specialty “tools” and Nick talking like professor ‘Fixit’ was a Friday nights feature and the length was perfect. I’ll not wax on about the two of you....thanks for the production!
Hi Nick. Thanks for the tip on having a hand drill on board. Hadn’t thought of that but makes a lot of sense and will be picking one up. Another handy tool is a mechanical reach tool. Push one end and spring loaded spring steel “fingers” extend to grasp the screw that always falls out of reach.
What you call a hand drill, in the US is called a brace and bit, if you mean the one where you rotate the whole tool. If you crank a wheel on the side, that's a hand drill here. The brace and bit can make much larger holes. But you need to check out a Yankee Drill aka Push Drill. This elegant creation looks like a screwdriver with a fat handle. Bits are stored in the handle, and all you need to do is push, then release, to drill a hole in wood or plastic. It is compact and very effective. If you buy one, you will treasure it. So much easier to carry for a few odd holes.
Fantastic video Nick! I actually started an inventory spreadsheet based off these two vids, as my pub friends are not as useful as yours. Files need 'file cards'. A cheap impact-screwdriver is golden for corroded screws/bolts. Most DMMs have fuses, need spares. And 'better' DMMs can add a clamp-on ammeter so you don't have to break the circuit to measure current. Cheers!
Most definitely continue with these kinds of videos. Always interesting listening to a man talk about his tools ;) And you two are so charming you could make an entertaining video about paint drying. Thank you for sharing and fair winds.
Brilliant video for those of us who are still rather new and starting to venture out on longer passages. Especially if your boat is of a older vintage. I also watched this with my wife, so now I’m off to the store for, wait for it,,, “toooools woo-hoo” 😊😜😂.
Strap wrench also can be used to remove the element from the hot water tank. Quite a bit smaller and lighter. A 4 foot length of PVC is invaluable for gaining leverage on the end of tools. Ours also doubles as a fender board.
Blimey! I thought I carried a lot of tools. Great video guys. I had a bulk purchase of 2.5mm Allen keys as I kept dropping them overboard. One item I got early on and thought I would never use was a “sea searcher” magnet on about 10m of polypropylene cord - I was using a very nice mini ratchet to tighten up one of the wind gen stays when I slipped and dumped it in the drink. Out of desperation I got the magnet out ( not really expecting any joy ) and you know what.... I got the ratchet back - Yeah!
I find that a canvas tool holder that draped over a 5 gal bucket useful , it holds the tools on the sides a nd leaves the bucket for parts n drills etc and is great up the mast or over the side. When done you can pull it out and roll it up.
interesting concept with the hand drill... i guess thats a fiberglass thing. steel boats we just carry cedar shingles like what you put on a house and drive them in the crack then wait for them to swell to seal the hole. thats for small cracks and leaks but bigger stuff i could see putting a wood plate up to stop the water. THANKS NICK.
Good Stuff, my tool and spare collection is similar. Plus some clamping lockwire pliers, and a heavy plastic dead-blow hammer with interchangeable heads (screw on type for metals or timbers). In case you where curious: a google search "dead blow changeable head hammer" find the Snap-on one in the plastic case is exactly what I meant. Plus some aluminium and brass drifts. I even made some of my tools too; drifts listed above and some other spanners too. I needed a short slide hammer to get my injectors out, or take out the engine (and that's not happening in the water). Problem the injectors are 4 inches long and I only had 14 inches of room (sorted), 3 hours to make the slide hammer, 10 inches long; 30 minutes to get the injectors out. Oh soaked the injectors with mouse milk overnight too, the mouse milk had soaked down about a third of the way in about 18 hours. Don't worry I think the real cruisers will be curious about this topic, its not all beers and whatever when sailing. but you can have a beer fixing things. I actually might start a log of what we fix and where we are, a McGiver record - haha - take care. Cheers Guys
Nick, I am a retired engineer/plant manager and always thought I would enjoy extended sailing. After watching you and other sailing channels for years now, I know that indeed I do not want the hassle. However, I sure do enjoy sailing with you from here in Arizona where I occasionally splash a little water on my face to make it real. Now that being said, I certainly enjoyed this episode of spare parts and tools. I have a similar stash for my Arizona home which I use at least weekly for similar reasons, with the exception that I can't sink. Sail on.......
There are several factors in doing a pro job. One place I discovered which succeeds in merging these is the Denelle Boat Builder (check it out on google) definately the most helpful info that I have ever heard of. Check out this super resource.
Terysa, yes I found it interesting, if for no other reason than confirmation that I'm not the only boater with tool storage and organization challenges. My wife tries to avoid going to the boat if i plan to do any projects (which, face it is always) because i make such a mess of the cockpit or cabin.
You guys are so cool...=) I subscribed two times because you guys are twice as nice. Best sailing reality tv online. Yippieee skippie for Ruby Rose Tribe!!!!!
Nice video. I’m a wanna be sailor . Looking to make the plunge into being a sailboat owner. Being locked on land right now in Oklahoma USA. I like your realistic view on tools, and your back up tools. Y’all got me thinking, maybe I need to get rid of some of my tools. Way too many... any way, good job on video...🍺
Love these videos guys! Been watching for a year or two when I was dreaming/shopping for my boat but now that I'm about to live on and cruise my new to me beneteau 40' I keep coming back for your wisdom and experience. Thank you so much for putting the time into all the "how-to's". Such an asset to the sailing and soon to be sailing community and one of the things that really sets your channel apart.
With all the various needs for o-rings, an inexpensive kit to make your own, with lengths of differing diameters, razor, cutting die and super glue? I didn't believe they would be durable or doable at first, but now, having been proven over decades of use, I would not be without it. Haven't seen this yet in your kit--perhaps in an upcoming video, or something to add to your tools?
This was a brilliant video. Just yesterday I started thinking of what kind of tools and spare parts I'd need onboard. Thank you so much. Happy sailing and be safe out there
Very helpful! I've been making a list on things to carry on board since I started boat shopping and this was great for things I haven't thought of or run across before.
Looks like you're missing a socket as well! Hey Nick here is a potentially useful FYI, for when you get one of those ugly plastic tow ropes wrapped around something inportant, put a metal cutting blade in your hacksaw (handsaw) backwards so that it cuts on the pull stroke. In the US, metal blades come in 28 TPI (Teeth per Inch), they work great!
If you have electrical connections that keep corroding. such as your fridge light, you should put a layer of di-electric (non conductive) grease on the terminals. It protects the terminals from corrosion and does not interfere with the electrical conductivity.
Another great episode 👍 now this sounds a bit weird but I keep a tub of Vaseline in my tool box , great for stopping electric parts corroding so fast & other jobs involved with friction 🙄
Great video well informative everybody likes the sailing time but they forget about the maintenance time. Would love to see the repair on the rudder If you did it yourself and taped it
Hi Guys. 21. people are not interested in tools or spares on a boat. Wow I guess they are bathtub sailors because all the smart sailors are certainly interested in learning all they can. Thanks Ruby Rose. David. Down Under.

I did lol so much when you said "I'm not gonna polish my tool all day". That's the Nick we all love.

Wouldn’t have thought of needle files but can see how they might come in handy. Thanks for making this video. Hope you make more like this. -Jim
Good job. Nice refresher course. Mini crowbar is my must have.
This was great thanks. Love these types of videos to help get the “things to get for the boat” list narrowed down. Peace & fair winds
Terysa, the first 25 sec intro .. very creative and well done.
10:48 - "The reason we have this massive tool is because..." he's the skipper!!! LOL Thanks for another fun video!
Fantastic video Nick! I actually started an inventory spreadsheet based off these two vids, as my pub friends are not as useful as yours. Files need 'file cards'.

Nick, you are a handy guy for sure. Being able to do so much for yourself is a gift indeed. Happy Sailing.
Thank you for this! I'm always curious what people have on board. Good to see new tools and hear of their uses too.
Enjoying the toolbox series. How about a galley series?
Love the episode, In 5 years we will be off on our adventures and this is the stuff that really helps me prepare
Brilliant! Can't wait for the electronics edition.
What a great episode, thanks Nick!
I searched for just this video. More please
Nick, thank you. I am thinking about getting into sailing. Your videos are helping me to see what is truly involved.
Loved it. Also a packing nut wrench for your stuffing box, unless you have PSS dripless packing glands.
That was extremely informative. I really appreciate it. Thank you.
That was very helpful, the level on the phone is a great idea you can use in your house as well
Great video! Keep these coming!
Excellent. Looking forward to spare parts section.
Good stuff, the technical bits are great for those of us gearing up to head out there.
Good video. Very helpful

I did enjoy this ( but I'm a guy who enjoys tools ) and do like your what its like to live aboard style videos.
Not handy at all but somehow find this FSU fascinating. Looking forward to next similar episode.
Great video, can't wait for the next instalment. :)
And thanks for the tips on a hand drill and the smarty phone level app.
This was a brilliant video. Just yesterday I started thinking of what kind of tools and spare parts I'd need onboard. Thank you so much.
Happy sailing and be safe out there
Great video and thanks for the boat specific comments. I love this kind of topic.
Excellent video!
Opened ended ring spanner set very handy
Love your vids
Cheers
Very helpful! I've been making a list on things to carry on board since I started boat shopping and this was great for things I haven't thought of or run across before.
I love your been there, still doing that videos! More please!
LOVE YOUR TOOLS!! ;-) love you Nick
Yes, please do more and thanks!
Thanks for the video It was very interesting, I think you do a good job making sure the traveling video are first on your list.
Looks like you're missing a socket as well! Hey Nick here is a potentially useful FYI, for when you get one of those ugly plastic tow ropes wrapped around something inportant, put a metal cutting blade in your hacksaw (handsaw) backwards so that it cuts on the pull stroke. In the US, metal blades come in 28 TPI (Teeth per Inch), they work great!
Incredible collection
Awesome tool vid Nick thumbs up
always great help, waiting for 2nd episode
If you have electrical connections that keep corroding. such as your fridge light, you should put a layer of di-electric (non conductive) grease on the terminals. It protects the terminals from corrosion and does not interfere with the electrical conductivity.
Good information
I like it. Tell me more. Love the Brit humor. Thank you both.
Awesome video. Copious notes taken. Thanks
Perfect timing for me. Thanks
Love it, keep'm coming! 👍👍👍👍👍😊
Another great episode 👍 now this sounds a bit weird but I keep a tub of Vaseline in my tool box , great for stopping electric parts corroding so fast & other jobs involved with friction 🙄
Great video well informative everybody likes the sailing time but they forget about the maintenance time. Would love to see the repair on the rudder If you did it yourself and taped it
Hi Guys.
21. people are not interested in tools or spares on a boat. Wow I guess they are bathtub sailors because all the smart sailors are certainly interested in learning all they can.
Thanks Ruby Rose.
David. Down Under.
You might include where you keep the tool chests when not in use. Bill Moore
Great stuff, very informative.
Great video guys! Nick, can you pull those items back out and show us how you stow them properly? Hahah j/k 😉
Why do you giggle when you talk about Nick's 'tool box', Lol.. Great video, thanks for sharing. Really like the hand drill for under water idea.
Really enjoyed this; many thanks!
Thanks for posting. Spare impeller must be in other segment. I wanna know what spares Terysa keeps too... Seriously, please! : )
