Thank you for the excellent tips, and detailed narration. I'm about to start a Navigator, so finding your channel is a godsend!

Thank you for another great video. Being open-minded about how best to use available resources is an excellent concept. There should be more on minimising waste and maximising productivity.

Hey Troy amazing job.

Good looking centerboard you've got there Troy. I strongly suspect it will look even better once it's dressed in glass. I can hardly wait to see it working with the rudder guiding that sweet boat through the water. The tension is building.

Quick tip if you're interested: I collect & keep the sanding dust from my Sanders when it's mostly wood for thickening epoxy. It's the same as the wood flour they sell. It works well for fillets, filling gaps, fairing and building up hardware pads.

Nice work, AGAIN!

how did you manage with your furler with a dyneema forestay - or did you stay with a metal stay instead?

You're in Tasmania. Interesting... How do you deal with the cold - that tends to slacken off dyneema?

Just wanted to let you know that we met a gentleman who is a fan in the Scottish highland town of Beauly, he noticed my wife’s Free Range Sailing shirt and asked if we were you. Said no but we had met you in Gosford when you celebrated Mirool’s 50th birthday. He really liked your sailing adventures and is a sailor himself

nope, not a radar reflector. You removed a possum box!

Great video. Top recommended books for a family looking to start a herd share? We started down the path of goats a few years back and instead decided to focus on expanding our flock of chickens and ducks. But we are ready now and trying to learn as much as we can... came across your video and it was very useful. Subscribed.

You make it all look so easy.

Thanks for the fab content.

Fab video, I'm always learning alongside you all.

The prep part was informative. The cooking part made me HUNGRY!!!!!!!! I would think a "Grease Separator" would be a good addition to your cooking tools.

This video was so informative. Thank you

Best sailing fishing video I have seen.

Hi Troy. I love the videos and get a lot of tips from your experience. Thank you. On the lifting point for the centreboard, might there be a problem with the dyneema getting jammed between the edge of the routed trough in the centreboard and the centreboard case during the lift as the direction of the pull from the block will change with respect to the direction of the trough? I hope I have explained that clearly enough! I also hope I am wrong!

Cool

Thanks

You’re such a good teacher Troy.

Thanks!

I have watched your channel for a while and really enjoyed the sailing adventures. However I really like your wood working episodes. Great knowledge, no fancy workshop full of tools. Just great skills, understated presentation style and interesting project. So - thank you. I’m looking forward to your next adventure. You even taught me some features about the Hikoki router, which I also have. Learning every day …….. 😊

Great epoxy skills. I am sure your method worked well but also was thinking a 6mm drilled hole Dyneema soaked in epoxy and pushed in 2 holes formed loop easy quick and very very strong. Ideas I have seen on Sven Yrvind channel some great innovative ideas there.

Wonderful video. Pascal is a gem and a very talented country girl.

The BEST practical marine woodworking program on the net.

Troy, because youtube is fucked and getting worse, having vids in a playlist and having autoplay enabled, there will be a noticeable reduction in likes and comments. I can't wait to see you sailing again. Something tells me you're like a fish out of water when not connected to the sea.

That looks really nice well done

Thanks again Troy. I've never thought of "floating" the resin but have poured concrete, so immediately recognized the technique. Appreciate you voicing your thought process. And now I'll have to get that attachment for my multi tool as I have a few projects as it is now pleasant in NE Ohio US. Be well.

You’re the best Troy!!! Thanks for sharing I do appreciate the time you put into these videos.

Troy, I'm sure you'd enjoy watching a Swedish couple building a 50ft monohull yacht from scratch. "RAN sailing" is the name of his KZbin channel.

how do you know that troy-lol

You do such amazing work, time just flew by watching this. Keep up the good work, it is really super nice to watch.

Fine saw dust from a blade like a bandsaw is easier to work with than from a belt sander and won’t be lumpy

Hi Troy, I will be using your tips on using epoxy and wood dust for filling for my wood turning projects. Cant help but pass an envious eye over the gum trees you cut down. I have always thought that multi tools where just a gimmick but maybe I should look a little closer at them. Your videos are always full of good stuff.

👍👍⛵️

Very much enjoy watching the videos of boat work that you are doing. I find your tips & techniques very helpful for my own projects. Thaks so much. 🤗⛵🙂🐬S/V Cork~Texas🇺🇲

Glad to see you guys kickin it with the animal husbandry, but really happy to see your daughter checking everything out. She’s very pretty. Looks like a good blend of you two. Glad yall had the ultimate trip to see family a while back in spite of the pigs goin on walk about. The homestead and the boat construction are looking very well. And you two are happy though tired after feeding all those mouths. You’re still having fun. Hope some rain comes your way and that the calf and piglets come easily for you. I don’t know how you keep up with all of it. Glad you can. Much love and respect to you both. Stay safe.

I really appreciate learning from your general know-how and the way you talk through your thought processes. Thanks!

Enjoyed this one Troy…Excellent presentation.. John … Ontario, Canada

Nice job Troy

Thanks as always.

I always enjoy watching your best practices woodworking skills. Well done.

Thanks Troy and Pascel I have watched all of your productions and love them all. I'm inspired to comment because we're in Exmouth marina watching some weather come through and found Mirool on the same Jetty. You've been an inspiration for us as sailers for just 5 years to retire and have a good look at our coast on Catalina a seawind 1000. Loving the boat project . Tim

Hi Troy, thanks for all the video love what you were doing I find it very interesting. Unfortunately I don’t have the patience to do stuff like this but I really appreciate people that do keep up the good work always enjoy the videos cliff from Queensland Australia

My Mrs Molebash would be sooo proud! :-)

Hi troy. i have a 13 foot crusing dinghy, it has a steel centreboard, its quite heavy. i changed the wooden blocks over to frictionless rings to create a pully system for raising the centreboard. Their is some friction in the system yet it is no maintainance and totally managable. I have a boomless main where i also use frictionless rings as they are lighter and no maintinance. cheers

Great video, and info and tips. have a great day
