Bryan, I’m 72 and restoring a 1990 Hunter 35.5 that needs quite a bit of fiberglass work. I have done small jobs, but I was not prepared for the scope of what I needed to do. I was ready to accept defeat and take a huge loss, but after watching you I have a renewed sense of confidence! I have learned so, so much from you! Thank you so very much, you don’t just DO the work, but you TEACH as you go. You are an amazingly skilled teacher, and I am so grateful! Thank you so much!!
Fan of the channel. From a personal point of view, it is my opinion that an organized shop saves time. Chaos in one's physical surroundings is so stressful to me. To each their own.
Bryan for president, no more plexiglass, no job, just boat work...............how happy the world would be, greetings from a likeminded man and his family. My new drug is.............Turpentine, I love it ;)
Brian, I really missed your videos, glad your back online. You’re a source of inspiration for a lot of people. My respects, you’re quite the craftsman!
I love your willingness to be vulnerable with all of us in sharing your unfiltered journey Bryan... the REAL highs and lows, learning along the way. The things you know and the things you don't. SO inspiring!!! It takes incredible strength to be vulnerable... the most beautiful part..... the payout is huge, it is where true GROWTH is born. Cheers!
My husband gets annoyed at the tons and tons of sailing stuff and tools I have hanging around.. you take it to a whole new level! I am showing him your workshop so he feels better about mine 🤣. Great to see you making solid progress!
Haha that was cool! Repairing a 3D printer electronics to build the CNC router to fix the boat windows! I thought I'm the only one who starts to build a fence by acquiring a nail gun and compressor.
Being a jack off all trades pays off! Hats off to your ability to attack a new problem and make it work in a good way, not necessarily the best or most efficient, but it works and the result looks solid. Enjoying what you do is one of the keys to success.
Really enjoy watching you solve problems on the fly. Boat building/repairing always takes longer than planned. I look forward to more frequent uploads..Cheers
Sorry about your job ending, however I am excited you are working on the boat and making videos. Your explanations are always good. Keep up the work and We will follow the vlog.
Talking about being old enough to remember, I am old enough to remember when people used to park cars in garages. Great video. Its funny how your daughter noped right out when you put the camera on her. Hahaha
You’re pretty amazing engineer without the certificate, most of my families are engineers they would not be able to duplicate what you do very easily, you are a natural.
Window caulking: ....And you didn't clean up enough after installation and had to clean it up later....SHOCK. LOL Hey it's all good that works out right in the end. Your way, their way, my way, it's all good. There are many roads to get to the same destination. Some are smooth, some are bumpy, some are almost impossible journeys, however, it's the end result that really matters. So do it your way. Great job. I think your channel is doing well and going to do very well in the future.
You can't go wrong with Sika. Being a professional Sika user it's a bit awkward to see how expensive these products are. I use the Powercure system which would have also been great for this job, but apart from the insane expensive caulking gun it also takes some practice and experience to make it work. The Sika primer is a real pita when you spill it, either on your hands or on other surfaces. Using a piece of pumice stone can get it of your hands, especially when you take a long bath first :-)
Dude, you are one intense and complex fellow. Nothing wrong with that, I enjoy watching you work out your boat issues like Einstein. Keep driving on big guy and keep sending out the great vids. Cheers....
Fantastic!! I was so excited to your new video. And I am salivating at your router set up! But you know what I loved the most? The fact that your garage is not "tv production", it's a REAL garage! Full of projects in process, tools, toys, stuff, kid's stuff...you know real life. LOL. I'm with you on the creative vs organized. I love the look of organization, but I love being creative better and for me, there IS organization in the chaos of creativity. Keep up the good work, now that you've got the time to use--go for it!
Looking Good Bryan looking good, you've come a quit the distance already in the project. Glad to hear your attempting to put out a video every week looking forward to that. cheers bud.
I really missed your videos. I hope that now you can post a new video every week. And when you decide to find a new job, you can add as experience "installing two types of windows".
Congratulations Brian, you are a born engineer and inventor, and creator. Fantastic job. I like your attitude against being currently unemployed, you are the best and I have no doubt that things will evolve in the best way for you !!!!
Just luv your channel Bryan! Cause most TH-camrs are just so painfully dumb and your intellect and humour just shines and makes me smile. That mob who contracted you obviously did not value your diverse range of skills and talents. Please, please, please keep.documenting your journey. Cheers from BrianwithanI
Fantastic video. I went back to when you got the boat in Marsh Harbor and binge watched to this video. I always look forward to your progress. Please keep posting.
When caps blow I always up the voltage of the cap ,however they do get bigger. Bryan those that can do ,do and those that can't are no more than armchair critics . Carry on I love your vids
Initially, a CNC router takes way more time than it saves, but it delivers a very pleasant precision and is a great time saver if you ever need more than one part of something or if you need a revised version of a part you made before. Good decision, you will find many useful applications of it with time that are well worth the initial effort to build it and establish the work process.
I wouldn't have done it just for the window, but all of the interior on the boat is CNC cut and I have the original files to recut them. That will make it a big timesaver when that part comes.
Personally, I look forward to your and Patey’s content equally. This is inspiring me to replace windows on our Lapworth 24. Thanks for showing us how your did this. Spoiler alert…definitely not making a CNC to cut the windows. It is interesting to see none the less.
I've been watching your videos and you won me over with this one. I can see the very broad scope of knowledge you've accumulated. The uf rating on the capacitor had me chuckling because I've been there.please keep the videos coming
Really enjoying your videos, hope you keep it up. I am also watching another channel, Sailing Parlay Revival about a hurricane damaged Lagoon 45 catamaran. They have experienced a major bulkhead failure that they are now repairing. Don't know if this common in cats but just wanted to bring it to your attention for your boat. Best to address while the boat is all torn apart. Their problem was hidden behind finished walls and cabinetry so not initially detected when they did their repairs. I hope you don't have a similar situation. Good luck with your project
I did an episode on that. The good news is all my bulkheads are accessible because of the boat design. There is some damage I will be fixing, but even with the damages the boat is still square and straight.
Coming along very well. You boat is probably one of the more bashed up project boats on TH-cam. Its great because most people with a middle income will probably get into a catermarin in the same way. And the more videos to learn from the better. Just think of how rewarding the end product will be.
Thanks for sharing about your personality. I too am very introverted and often feel handicapped by it. The idea of having a TH-cam channel is terrifying.
I find your DIY approach much more laidback, but productive, than a lot of others who are restoring/renovating/refloating storm-damaged boats. Great watching you work!
It's coming around Bryan keep up the good work and keep pumping them vids it's always great to see your progress I watch pretty much all of Mike Pateys stuff smart man his content is excellent
Great job replacing the window and caulking them in! I’ve heard that Gone with the Wynns needs to redo their windows once they arrive in New Zealand. Doesn’t look nearly as hard as they’ve described!
They do say to run the 1/4”x 1/2” self adhesive foam strip around the inside edge to stop the caulk dripping onto you inside widow. Great effort with the cnc.
It is really fascinating to see the intersection of interests among different people and disciplines. Hearing Mike Patey referenced was surprising to hear on a “sailing channel.” But not really. Scrappy is going to be one heck of an airplane. Thanks for the video and the various topics discussed. Well done.
I really enjoyed the CNC router and 3D printing footage. BTW, I purchased the same load cell and digital scale readout equipment you sent me the links for to use in my classroom. Thanks again! I may involve my students in building our own CNC router using our 3D printers soon. No better way for students to learn than engaging them in a project like that.
Great video Bryan. Lots of good information on the window installation along with the router build. Sorry to hear about your job. I hope the TH-cam thing will get you by in the mean time. I always look forward to you next video. Take care.
Enjoy your show Bryan ! Those windows look Awesome ! I,ve been on a Catamaran sail once ,enjoyed it. Thanks for the cnc info. I hope to build my own this year ! Hope all your major fiberglassing is done ! Have Great Day on the Project ⛵
Thanks for your sacrificial glass layer idea a few episodes back (extra layer on top than you can sand down to without damaging the layers beneath). It inspired me to do something similar in surface prepartion prior to applying heavy cloth. I laid lite cloth over hexacore which filled in some slight depressions I have left in it when kneeling on it. I then sanded back most of the cloth leaving a smooth surface for the outer layer of basalt cloth. Just a sailing dinghy
I always look forward to your videos Bryan ..the extra knowledge you share is always a plus . glad to see you moving forward on your project. No need to apologize . oh and the comments about putting something all back together and have to pull it all back apart because it's newtons law , lol .i find the same thing happens to me ! Anyway , keep it going buddy , your doing great .
Micro Ferrets. I modified my Harbor Freight Welding with a Huge compositor and a couple other Parts. It ran Like a Top. It didn't hesitate and Ran way better than Original Stock Build. I got the instructions from TH-cam.

This has to be the most complex boat repair on TH-cam. The work you are doing on your own is insane.
Respect, man! :-) to use a DIY CNC router for a DIY boat - it is on another level :-)
Dude seriously!!! Don’t apologize for working on things other than the boat. I’d watch you build a peanut and jelly sandwich 🤣.
Yeah. Like a pb&j sandwich that’s been on the freeway a few weeks lol
You asked for it, next episode DIY pb&j sandwich. 🤣
🤣🤣
@@BryanSailing ... Damnit, now I'm hungry...
Can you use your CNC to make the PB&J
I am one of those 20,000 looking over your shoulder and I love every minuet of it. Love the psychological mumbo-jumbo, lots of nuggets to decipher.
Brian, the Mr Wizard of DIY boat channels. Great video sir!
Fan of the channel. From a personal point of view, it is my opinion that an organized shop saves time. Chaos in one's physical surroundings is so stressful to me. To each their own.
Full respect to all the knowledge from 3D printing repair to CBC fabrication to boat repair and windows install truly a one stop Channel

Take it easy, take your time, be safe in all you do. Enjoy your videos!
My husband gets annoyed at the tons and tons of sailing stuff and tools I have hanging around.. you take it to a whole new level! I am showing him your workshop so he feels better about mine 🤣. Great to see you making solid progress!
Well done Bryan... Down to earth fella working hard can only ever be a good thing. THANKS.
Haha that was cool! Repairing a 3D printer electronics to build the CNC router to fix the boat windows! I thought I'm the only one who starts to build a fence by acquiring a nail gun and compressor.
We can wait Bryan! Do these vids at your own pace. Love watching your progress and thoughts.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos Bryan 👍 glad you’ll have more time to make more!
Fix 3d printer, to build a router, to build a boat - that's a cool supply chain;)
The Richard Ayoade of the boat repair world. 👌
Being a jack off all trades pays off! Hats off to your ability to attack a new problem and make it work in a good way, not necessarily the best or most efficient, but it works and the result looks solid.

Love your commentary throughout your video, part informative and part entertaining. Thanks and make the most of your new found time freedom.
Glad you enjoyed!
Really enjoy watching you solve problems on the fly. Boat building/repairing always takes longer than planned. I look forward to more frequent uploads..Cheers
Looking forward to more frequent videos, don’t listen to the doubters, keep up the good work, can’t wait to see the finished result
Fix Tech is a really product in Australia for window installs
Sorry about your job ending, however I am excited you are working on the boat and making videos. Your explanations are always good. Keep up the work and We will follow the vlog.
Building the tools to build your project is the best part of the process. Great job
Bryan, my shop is like your shop. Brilliant minds have no time for clean up. You keep building, I'll keep watching.
I clean it, it's just gets messy again instantly 😊
its always worth it when you get to improve a tool. I always use excuses to build something asa reason to justify upgrading my tools too. you rock
Talking about being old enough to remember, I am old enough to remember when people used to park cars in garages. Great video. Its funny how your daughter noped right out when you put the camera on her. Hahaha
Your production quality definitely went up. Much less out of focus shaky mess. Keep it up!
You’re pretty amazing engineer without the certificate, most of my families are engineers they would not be able to duplicate what you do very easily, you are a natural.
Wow, thank you!
Glad your back ,I'm like a junkie hanging out for your next video.
Window caulking: ....And you didn't clean up enough after installation and had to clean it up later....SHOCK. LOL
Hey it's all good that works out right in the end. Your way, their way, my way, it's all good. There are many roads to get to the same destination. Some are smooth, some are bumpy, some are almost impossible journeys, however, it's the end result that really matters. So do it your way.

Dude, you are one intense and complex fellow. Nothing wrong with that, I enjoy watching you work out your boat issues like Einstein. Keep driving on big guy and keep sending out the great vids. Cheers....

A friend told me about you. He said you were enjoyable to watch, no mater what you are doind, he was right. you have a new subscriber!
Thanks for the sub!
Well done Bryan, you are a brave man to take on such a large task, enjoying seeing all your progress.
Congratulations Brian, you are a born engineer and inventor, and creator. Fantastic job. I like your attitude against being currently unemployed, you are the best and I have no doubt that things will evolve in the best way for you !!!!
wow thank you
Just luv your channel Bryan!
Cause most TH-camrs are just so painfully dumb and your intellect and humour just shines and makes me smile.
That mob who contracted you obviously did not value your diverse range of skills and talents.
Please, please, please keep.documenting your journey.
Cheers from BrianwithanI
Fantastic video. I went back to when you got the boat in Marsh Harbor and binge watched to this video. I always look forward to your progress. Please keep posting.
Brilliant...a true craftsman/tradesman
Looking for the next update! You did amazing progress! :)
When caps blow I always up the voltage of the cap ,however they do get bigger.
Bryan those that can do ,do and those that can't are no more than armchair critics . Carry on I love your vids
You are one crazy scientists!!! Great video, like that you show what happens behind curtains!!
Fearless thats what I like about your style. Dont be afraid to fail its just experience to get it right next time.

Thanks for the videos.. I learn a lot..your mechanical aptitude never ceases to amaze me..Keep the videos coming..I for one enjoy them..
Looking good, I’m very much looking forward to more videos and maybe even longer videos 👍🇺🇸

hello Bryan well done my friend. work at your pace and smile. thanks for the reality check.
Your meant to work on the boat. Cool router.
I liked the CNC exposure, I would like to hear about it more after you use it for a while. Like what software, Table dimentiones , table regidity ect.
It is really fascinating to see the intersection of interests among different people and disciplines. Hearing Mike Patey referenced was surprising to hear on a “sailing channel.” But not really. Scrappy is going to be one heck of an airplane. Thanks for the video and the various topics discussed. Well done.
The new wing design is so cool.
Nice one Bryan, really enjoyed this one especially the CNC build, take care 😃👍
WOW & WOW! We have very similar personalities, love what you’re doing! Lots and Lots and Lots of information there. Thanks for sharing. 😎🏖🌴☀️🇦🇺

You won't regret using the sikkaflex caulk....not until removal that is! Lol Good drills and interesting chat and fiddling!
Great progress so far keep up the good work
you really are killin it man!!!

You are a legend Bryan. You´ll reach your goals, I´m 100% sure of that :)
Thanks my friend

Awesome, thank you!
Loving your work Bryan. UK 🇬🇧
Keep up the good work. Would like to see more videos
here is a comment... enjoying the show!
Nice Window Install
Excellent video Bryan, keep the faith.
Learned more on this video than others. Thks for the help.
Good luck with the job and all. You will make it. Just believe it
Very cool. Doing awesome on that monumental project!!!!
Great Video. I going to build a Cat and have been toying with the idea of a MC cnc. You have just onvinced me its a good plan going forward.
Great content Brian. Keep moving forward!
Great work ! any excuse to use a CNC is accepted by me
