    Next week I want to see you at the launch of Yaba! You introduced us to both, Ben and MP three years ago, a very successful rebuild channel. Thank you for that and thanks for sharing your new journey.

    Good job Professor Duca! One proof of understanding of a subject is the ability to explain it to one's grandmother. I believe your explanation is grandmother approved.

    As a trade school instructor I'd say you are doing just fine in your explanation between the 2 types of construction. You should title this video "Hull construction 101". You are terrific at explaining your trade. Love your videos and look forward to them every week!

    Thank you Duca for elaborating on why you and Roberta chose Meta. In the explanation of methods you have not only educated your subscribers but , brought us along on the journey of your own evaluation and ultimate decision. Thanks again. All the best, Hal

    EXCELLENT explaining the design and the why of it. While I enjoyed the sailing portion of you channel, it is the construction and engineering that I find most entertaining. Enjoy the process of building both your new home and your new family.

    Duca, you are a lucky man. Roberta is the sweetest and cutest lady ever. To convince a woman today to live a nomadic lifestyle like this, you better hold on to her. Duca is pretty awesome fellow as well.

    One small detail for the workbench, that little toe space under the bench is where the dropped tools 🛠️ will go. Some kind of stick will be helpful to retrieve anything and everything that goes back there 😊❤

    Dear Roberta and Duca, firstly - congratulations on your baby on the way - secondly, I am really impressed with the knowledge you have acquired to build a new boat. I find it extremely interesting to listen to your explanations Duca. I wish you both, or should I say all three, good luck with the project and I will follow you every Sunday. All the best from Mr Bengt Sandgren/Norway

    Very cool, having a much thicker hull plating especially if using a double hull containing floatation material like foam makes a lot of sense to me!
    I found your explanation of the mechanics of the chimes informative.
    You've done a great job with the workshop, it looks really good.
    Have a ripper you guys!

  • @robertlaird6746
    @robertlaird6746 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Yes, Roberta is correct about chines on a mono hull but not a catamaran. Many river jet boats are built like your new boat is being built and then they add stringers to protect the hull from getting bent because they usually hit rocks in the river and don't want to completely destroy the boat after the first rock hit.

    Learned a lot from this video so thx Duka & Roberta. Cool to see the two sides of alu-thoughts: plastic vs elastic. Like Freedom/Delos vs Odd (wonder what Noah is doing?) Will be interesting if they one day in the future are able to test/compare the two methods.

    @jeremyallard7015 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Hi Guys, I hope you're both well, I would always prefer a thicker plate design to a framed one. I am so pleased that she will be a Hard Chine too. I guess that the TOF is easier to measure on the welds, with an unframed construction. If I was designing a boat using your method, I would insert various conduits with wire pulling tapes included. Deus te abencoi.

    @vraymond108 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I have two Meta aluminum Strongall boats and one heavy duty but traditional framed aluminum boat. The welding from Meta is exceptionally good. The one boat is great but not exceptional ie wavy sheets and obvious welding concerns with heat.

  • @lovingcars
    @lovingcars 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Very interesting, looks aluminium is the way to go. Your friends on Parlay had another mishap where a part of their starboard bow lifted. Looks like Delos might also be contemplating a metal boat.

    grats on the family addition, i see your boat building to be a new line of watercraft for the world, your globale set up could catch on like a VW beatle. i belive you have a handle on this so build it for all of us, so i can sail like you, all weather all latitudes, carry on and put the wind in your hair.

  • @billmandaue2168
    @billmandaue2168 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    You will need a leaf blower because the first time you make sawdust, you will need to clean the workshop out. Otherwise, the sawdust will overwhelm you. The easiest way to do that will be to blow everything out through the front doors, and then sweep it off the floor in front of the workshop. It will also show you where you need to secure things you don't want blown away.

    Great episode---love the pic of the mom-to-be just glowing with her new baby "loot". I'm still trying to figure out what in the blue blazes a "chine" is. . . .hmmmm, like a mini-keel? Your workshop is awesome and will remain so until the first moment that you use it, lol. Then the neatness goes out the window and dust, scraps, etc. get under the workbenches, in corners, and underfoot. Such is the life of a workman, eh? But the beauty and functionality still remains!

    • @clivestainlesssteelwomble7665
      @clivestainlesssteelwomble7665 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      A Chine is a sharp edged change in angle between the hull plates ...eg between the sides and bottom plates, a lot of traditional monohulls have curves all along the hull but power boats that plane need sharp chines and sometimes chine strips to throw the water passing under the hull out without dragging on the sides. Modern sailing vessels use chines because they give a more regular interior space and use twin rudders so the chine a bit like a keel gives more bite when heeled over. 🧙🏼‍♂️

    I agree w/ your arguments for thicker plates and less frames. But I wonder why yards like KM boatbuilders in the Netherlands don't build boats your way. Price of Strongall? Customers insisting on round bilges?

    Your explanation on the Strongall concept is excellent, thank you.
    Isn’t it the same building method Alubat is now using on their new Owni boats, like the 370? If the patent is from around 1970 I guess it has run out.

    Pretty much exactly like the metal version of a stitch and glue plywood, where developable panels form the shape of the hull. Looks much smarter than that mess of tack welds and impossible to clean corners in that other boat.

    Sobre o casco, explicação claríssima!
    Não sei se não prestei a devida atenção e perdi, então pergunto: entre as alternativas quina x caverna, como fica a comparação no consumo do material? O alumínio terá um custo por peso (consumido), ou o tipo de fábrica na forma (perfis diversos, chapas) influencia (suponho que sim)? Considerando que um veleiro não é somente casco, e as outras questões relacionadas à estrutura (esqueleto e fechamento x fechamento estrutural), como a fixação de tudo o que se agrega (acima e abaixo do convés: mastro, estais, motor etc) que cobrarão medidas de reforço estrutural mais pontual ou linear, o que é mais coerente/compatível com um esqueleto estrutural do que com superfícies ‘estruturalmente difusas’.
    Chapa grossa num esqueleto seria a combinação do melhor nas duas alternativas? Arcando com peso e custo maiores?
