ARMED and DANGEROUS! | Building our own dinghy davits [Ep14 RED SEAS]

We need to install new dinghy davits on our Leopard 47 but we don’t know how to weld so our friend Singh agrees to teach us. I’m not sure how much we really helped, but he let us watch as he builds a fantastic arch for Indioko and we couldn’t be happier!

📖 Our Story 📖
We're Iain and Brioni, a couple of ginger Scots who sold everything we own and moved to the Caribbean to buy a boat that we could call home. We have a habit of finding ourselves in the most unusual circumstances, but that’s what makes life interesting! We love to travel, we love the sea and we love sharing inspiring stories about inspiring people. So hit subscribe and join us on this adventure!

your stainless guy was amazing. his shop looks less than spiffy but he had everything he needed and knew how to use it.

[@RedSeas]

Singh was an absolute artist. We learnt so much from him and had a great time doing it to. What a legend

[@brianmardon7123]

First class trade's man and a first class boat.

[@RedSeas]

Singh was absolutely amazing and generously allowed us to take part in the building of the davits. It was a real eye opener for us too. What skills! Indi continues to surprise us as she takes everything in her stride and keeps us safe along the way. We couldn’t have found a better boat for our little adventure.

[@genieclarke7346]

He is an artist, beautiful work.

[@RedSeas]

We couldn’t agree more. He has such passion for his work and makes it look so easy but having experienced the process, we have nothing but respect for him. The Davits are amazing too.

[@kevinmarvel1319]

You found an amazing stainless welder! I’m ready to sail down for some custom work…rarely do you find capable craftsmanship with pride.

[@RedSeas]

Yeah, Singh is such a passionate artist when it comes to metal work. A fantastic guy too. We were so grateful to have met him and had a chance to see him in action.

[@steveking6204]

Excellent videos. You all have everything you need to succeed...look forward to watching future episodes.

[@RedSeas]

Thank you! We can’t wait to share the adventure - plenty more to come!

[@DougVarble]

Wow!

[@RedSeas]

Right back at ya! 😂 thanks. Pleased you enjoyed the episode. Next one is out this sunday.

[@kevtamus]

looks like we might have just missed you guys at St. Martin this last season - we left the lagoon to go to St. Thomas on Christmas Eve 2021 but were hanging out in St. Martin for about a month before that. Not that you would have known us from a hill a beans, but I always seem to figure out timelines at locations we've been at just to see if we crossed paths and didn't know it. Cheers.

[@RedSeas]

So close! Hey next time we cross wakes, make sure to swing by and give us a knock on the hull. Would be great to meet. I will have to ask Bri where we were around then as I’m truly terrible around dates but sounds like we weren’t far away.

[@fabriciobarcelo1697]

Saludos desde Argentina.

[@RedSeas]

¡gracias! esperamos que disfrutes siguiendo nuestra aventura (perdón por la traducción de Google)

[@alofns]

Really enjoying your channel. Thanks for inviting us into your life.

[@RedSeas]

Wow! Thank you. We are still in our early days but looking forward to sharing the adventure with you. If you get a chance to share with family and friends, it really helps us grow the channel and find stability.

[@josephrosello8806]

Soooo cool to see it all come together!

[@RedSeas]

It was really fun to have the chance to take part in creating these davits. We would have had no chance without the expertise of Singh though. What a genius.

[@latitudeash]

You could throw a few more solar panels on that also?

[@RedSeas]

That’s exactly what sing wanted us to do! It’s the perfect spot right?

[@testicool013]

The argon protects the weld as it cools

[@RedSeas]

Yeah, that was what song taught us too. Basically keeps the air away while the weld is cooling. Really cool stuff to learn about. So thankful he let us help out for the whole process

[@testicool013]

@@RedSeas he really needs a shed to keep the wind away

[@latitudeash]

You should put a remote camera on each side and at the top of the mask. Than you will have full sight.

[@RedSeas]

Funny you should say that. It’s so rare that we ever go to a dock but cameras have been on our list for a while. Watch this space

[@latitudeash]

Bri, where’s your seat belt? In fact where’s the seat? 😂

[@RedSeas]

So irresponsible!

[@latitudeash]

@@RedSeas 🤣😂 - She is not afraid to get stuck in and do it. Even if its a little risky.

[@dubes5594]

The smelly anchor makes me think you dropped it near the outlet of the underwater town pooptube thats been doin its thing for the last 50 years.🤭

[@RedSeas]

🤣 🤢 here’s hoping it’s just a sign of a healthy echo system. Actually… let’s now 😂

[@PRISMALED1]

Hi Guys, so good and refreshing see you guys as i just "found you" hehee Ok, i got Leopard 45 same situation and Love the way you did for the tender lift, is it any chance you could reply with what blocks you did use to make it work use the winch to lift. Thanks in advance Mikael. 😉

[@RedSeas]

Hi Mikael, so nice to meet you and thanks for finding our little adventure. The davits have been a fantastic adaption to Indioko. We have switched things round a little with regards to how we lift the dinghy. Linc the Dink is pretty heavy so we have to use ratios in our favour. We actually made an episode on the evolution of our davit lift which you can find here kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmS5l6Cld8qnoKMsi=i8E4Z6lGZuzFhgxa

[@PRISMALED1]

Thanks bloody awesome!!!!!!

[@douglasmontgomery6315]

Very nice looking, I'm assuming solar will be going on top :)

[@RedSeas]

Thanks, we’re really pleased with it. Solar install coming in a couple of weeks!

[@sashonikolov]

Hi, I'm a new subscriber. I'm wondering how much you pay the dock for the stay. And if you drop anchor 1 or 2 kilometers from the dock is it allowed and do you get fined and if you drop anchor at a distance do you have to pay as well. I ask you because I got into an argument with people, and I myself am not familiar :)

[@RedSeas]

Hi, thanks for joining our adventure! The charges for staying at a dock change, depending where you are in the world but typically it can be between $50-$150 per night. It is usually free to anchor but some places do charge a small fee - we usually only stay in the free places! Usually we anchor just 100-200m from the shore so that it is still shallow enough for us to drop our anchor and chain to reach the bottom.

[@latitudeash]

Ian stop touching hot things. Top tip. 😂

[@RedSeas]

#TooHotToHandle 😂

[@latitudeash]

@@RedSeas lol - Hope no lasting effects. You know for next time...lol

[@latitudeash]

Good job not smell video. Lol. Looks yackee

[@RedSeas]

Yeah, Brioni probably won’t ever forgive me for that one.

[@latitudeash]

@@RedSeas - she is a superstar. A lot of girls would not even contemplate going that. You have a good one there hold on to her tightly. Love girls that will just get stuck in and do it. Bri's personality in the vids really does come out, I think she must of been an amazing teacher.

[@latitudeash]

With the toilet paper and a anchor, sounds a bit poo’ish 🤢

[@RedSeas]

That’s what I think too. But I can’t tell Brioni that or she will kill me. 😂

[@latitudeash]

@@RedSeas lol. Just imagine getting another girl to do that. They would refuse point black. Every vid I watch is showing me that both of you are well suited.
