A couple questions….1) do you regret not building from scratch? 2) why a steel boat? Looks good so far. Hope it continues to be well with you.

Hi guys how's progress going on your boat. Well, more to the point, how are you? I haven't seen you for a while & was hoping all is ok in your world. I can only imagine how this project could possibly get you down. I'm also trying to fix up an old steel boat. But I'm only putting bandaids on mine because that's all I can afford at this point. I really admire how you have tackled project & how you have fully coated the inside in order to keep the rust at bay. That is something I dream of👍. Hope to see you soon. Keep up the good work 💪 SV Kiwi Lady Opua Bay of islands New Zealand 👍🏿

You really need access to the hose that pumps urine etc out. You need to be able to remove it, because urine and salt water leads to blockage of the hose. Use a rubber hose and you can use a rubber hammer to hammer the scale out of the hose twice a year.

Tbh I think the bed base should have been raised, giving you extra bed space and under bed storage. Yes, I know there was a hatch, but that could've been accessed underneath the bed, or a lift up section by the foot of the bed to access that front hatch.

Nice concept, but I would highly recommend a diesel engine. Electric, maybe on a big foam core catamaran but only with the capacity to get into the harbor in combination with a hybride diesel for off coast maneuvering I would highly recommend to use a diesel engine that can run on old fryer oil. Then you can collect fryer oil on a bicycle with a few jerrycans for free. Just dump it in a big tank and you’ll motor almost for free. And often they’ll start the engine on a small tank with diesel in order to heat the fryer oil with a copper pipe around the exhaust so it becomes more viscous. You should check out this Dutch couple. They sail a Dutch steel sailboat that they fixed up on a budget. Recycled mast with a tapered boom build from the excess length of the mast, biodiesel engine, custom self steering wind vane, custom build pilothouse with inboard steering, wood stove etc. etc. This is part one of a three episode show and tell interview. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6Ksf3uMmK2ceNEsi=axEoRcBc_UltUhwg

I would like to offer a cheap quick solution to your door fail. Actually your video solved the problem I was have trouble with doing the exact same opening your boat does . Have your fabricator build a 1/2 “ x 3/4” deep track on both sides of the frame . This method will also allow you to gain the top part of the door which I see you lost by having to lift the door up into the slot hanging from your ceiling. I say move the enclosure back flush with the original opening . I cut 1” square pieces of walnut sized it to the width of the inside of the track allowing 1/8” on each side to make sure it will slide easily. Mill off 5/16 of an inch off of 2 sides of each slat opposite of each other and on each end of the slat . What it will leave is a tab that will secure the slats so they can only slide up to be push back into the enclosure you already have , to open slide up upward and downward to close. After you get the slats perfectly level so they move freely inside the slotted frame on each side. Now on the interior side of the you have some more choices to make on how you want to connect all of the wood slats , I used canvas glued and stapled hold each slat the correct distance apart ( like a roll top desk. That’s where I got the idea . But since you need it weather proof maybe rubber it’s your choice . It is important to make sure the distance between each slat allows the entire door to make it through the bend of the door track at the top and make that bend ( almost like a 7 but with a radius at the bend). So when you install your hinge the slats will make that corner smoothly . Just go look at a roll top desk and there you will have it.

Hey guys, Just make sure you look at your power budget ie regen from sailing carefully considering realistic boat speeds. SInce it is a steely, this may not be that great unless you have great wind. DOn't beleive all that you read...most is BS. MY boat will only just be getting there and I imagine it will sail at 8 knots minimum being a cat and less than half of your weight. Sounds good though. Good luck!

Gosh what an eye opening video. Thankyou for opening my eyes to this option. We have just had a nightmare with our blacktank on our boat, here's the video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3vKhYVqataZhdU - and now I am thinking about your treatment plant and how to integrate it into our system. Do you have an update video? Love your graphics. I look forward to jumping into more of your content!

Glad you found our video helpful! Your video was so real about the challenges of blackwater tanks, thanks for sharing. We are still in the middle of our build so we haven't tested the Electroscan just yet. But the second we splash we will be writing full reviews of our experience. We'll keep you posted. Cheers!

Just watched a sailing video with 5 days of no wind where on a 34 ft boat are going to put enough solar panels to keep enough charge to run your boat.Well like everything else you have done on the boat you have a to do multiple times when are ever gone to lean
@allenwade6087Ай бұрын
More and more people are going all electric,first , always plan trips around weather patterns with multiple days of no wind , modern weather gear provides the capability to do this. Second, LI batteries are awesome,, Third , these two aren’t stupid, they got this..
@lahakaiАй бұрын
This is very true @allenwade6087 . Uma says this as well. Traveling with their electric motor is a different kind of sailing. There is a lot of planning to understand the weather and the boats capabilities. It has also made them step up and become better sailors so they can get the most out of the wind. Also, Technology has come a long way in a short period of time, and we're very interested in seeing what we can build and how it performs.

The angle of the benches would have been suitable during the most agressive heel. But since this is a liveaboard boat and not a racing boat, then the living spaces, including the cockpit need to be comfortable while at rest as well.

You are making a massive error, even with a big battery bank, you will not have the endurance of a conventionally powered boat, in the event of country winds, and tide , your battery's will not be sufficient for a prolonged run, I suggest you reconsider , it is your not only lives you place in jeporady , but those Sent to rescue you
