As the son of a merchant sailor the best thing about your project is the second life you are giving the old lady, insted of her ending up on some filthy beach in India being broken down, keep up the great work, cheers from Australia

[@joshuahaslam3751]

The thing I like about this is that most people would turn a blind eye to the boat but you can see there is still lots of life left in it and it just needs some love

[@smitruck]

Been boating for 50 years, and loves your videos. Hard work bringing it back to life.

[@chrisbucci5034]

I love the fact that what your restoring has class. Things built today lacks class and detail. Saving the past is bringing history to life.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Couldn’t agree more…

[@TonyInIR]

I love seeing a group of like minded individuals working hard towards a common goal even if that goal post keeps moving. Big adventure!!! Enjoy it :-)

[@nattydred2593]

I like that it's a very small group of people working on a hopelessly large project, and they don't complain, just keep plugging away at it.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

The group will grow over the coming months but slowly. We will do our best to find the right people for this project. People that have the same passion for saving a part of history.

[@ms1212100]

I have been doing a home remodel for 2 years now. What I appreciate is your work effort, sustainability and Lots of volunteer help. Great project. Enjoy the channel immensely...keeps me motivated!! From Connecticut USA

[@HugoHugunin]

What I love about this channel and the restoration is that a classic ship is being lovingly saved and I get to see my old friend, the Delta, once again. I can still remember driving from "The Pocket" to Rio Vista after work some days and going through all of the little towns along the way. I'm impressed with how much you've been able to "recycle" to keep costs down and preserving as much of Aurora's bones as you can. If I win a t-shirt, I will wear it whenever a new video comes out. Calm seas and clear skies...

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Thanks for the kind words. The Aurora was actually in Rio Vista for a short time. Was a beautiful area and a great little city. I try my best not to dispose of usable parts and pieces from the ship. Makes more sense to use the original than to buy new cheap Chinese materials. Send us a PM with your address and we will send you a shirt. Include your size..

[@sunnypopli4855]

Like how a group people have come together and work their ASS off on a ship doomed for the scrapyard to preserve what it stood for in its Day.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Thank for the kind words and seeing this project for what we have accomplished. She definitely has a future now.

[@sunnypopli4855]

@@AuroraRestorationProject I cannot wait to see her all done with the Vision your team has for Her. God Bless and wish you all the Best to come.

[@timzambo007]

What I love about the channel is learning about metal work and seeing this beautiful old ship slowly coming back to life week by week.

[@Mr1jimmer]

I can honestly say, I like the way your bringing back a piece of history .. Most would walk away from a project of this magnitude, but you and the crew are sticking to it like clue !! Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the welding, fabricating, and plasma cutting are most enjoyable ! Keep Doing What Your Doing .. Because What You Are Doing Is Nothing Short Of Amazing !!

[@afrociaal8073]

the thing that i love about this project is that you don't need a shipyard to restore a ship, you just need a plasmacutter, welder, grinder and a lot of people!

[@thomasrose6629]

As a hobbyist fabricator I love the fabrication videos. Wish she was closer to me as I’d love to come help bring her back to life.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Definitely the more people with the ability to fabricate the better. Thanks for watching..

[@TrapShooter68]

What can I say. A bunch of lunatics have taken on a possibly impossible project and are making remarkable progress. You're my kind of people!

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Absolutely, Sometimes a little crazy means more work. Thanks for watching.

[@aarongale1803]

I love your enthusiasm with this project. The fact that you are restoring this old lady and being thoughtful about it, tells me that you care a very great deal about her. I'm sure she is in capable hands. Can't wait till the day she sets sail again, wish I could be on her to see your excitement!

[@samuelaho4046]

My Daughters name is Aurora and you show us how anything is possible. Just have to be willing and get after it.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Your Daughter has a great name. The name has been the luckiest name to date for this ship so may it be the same for your daughter.

[@joehoulihan5305]

I love that you are saving history! This is not a profit driven venture, you have fallen for the Aurora and have helped all of us to love her too! I live in Springfield Oregon, I am an Electrician, If it were up to me, I would hall my trailer down for vacation just to get the chance to help save the old girl, my family dose not share my love for history… Thanks for sharing your world with us! Hope to get there some day soon!

[@ponyhorton4295]

I love ocean liners and passenger ships, as well as working vessels. I love how you're not just keeping a piece of increasingly rare maritime history alive, but that you're doing nearly singlehandedly, without a lot of corporate interference. Just you and your friends and admirers. And you're taking us along, step-by-step, in detail. It must be incredilby peaceful to be on an ocean liner/criuise ship that is moored alongside a beautiful California farming landscape. I find your work and videos incredibly calming and inspiring. If you decide to send me a T-shirt, I'll proudly wear it everywhere! I look forward to the next chapter!

[@petesmith13]

Don't need a t-shirt but what I do love about this channel beyond the big steel boat repairs and fabrication is that you and the crew actually read and reply to comments, great work to you and your team.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

We try but definitely get lots of comments and it’s difficult sometimes to keep up. Wish we had more time for those who are truly interested in what we’re doing. Thanks for watching.

[@MrWaldorfian]

I love this channel because you are taking a seemingly done for ship and reworking it piece by piece. I enjoy the welding, cutting, fabricating and restoration work.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Wouldn’t trade the experience for anything in the world. It’s been an honor to work aboard this ship.

[@panacea407]

Been watching since the 1st episode dropped. I watch a lot of boating reno channels, but the ones I stick with are those that are detailed, well narrated and have a clear mission. Aurora Restoration checks all the boxes…and then some. Continued good luck with the project.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Thanks for the kind words. Glad to have you aboard on this channel. We’re gonna get a little more frequent in releasing new videos. My editing skills are getting a little more streamline so more content will get out now for sure.

[@gwpsr58]

I enjoy the stories of her history, the fabrication/demo, and the preservation of an irreplaceable treasure.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

The story gets much better. Thanks for watching.

[@paraweir]

I love seeing passionate people with no previous experience in what they are currently doing, doing a job well! The Aurora Project has many such people, doing things that they might never have even tried before, doing them with pride, passion and belief in the work they are doing.

[@barbfreihammer2233]

I love that you are saving a part of our history!!. Without your efforts, it could have been lost.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

She would have been scrapped or sank a long time ago had I not found her. I guess both myself and this ship were lucky that day.

[@johnsnow1355]

The people are what make this channel entertainment to watch and follow

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Before this channel I never thought of myself as an entertainer. Just a guy working on his ship. Glad I started this channel.

[@drzvw]

The thing I like the most about watching this project is I love old boats and would hate to hear the Aurora would be lost. Also it is very relaxing to watch and listen to Chris talk. Chris reminds me a little of Marty Stouffer on Wild America! Keep up the good work !

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Marty Stouffer, Thanks. I never really thought of myself as being any good at narration but it seems to slowly be coming to me. Glad your enjoying the project. We will be digging into more crazy project in the coming weeks. You definitely will enjoy some of what’s coming :)

[@tombombaci1999]

I love the whole DIY vibe of the channel. I am also a DIY type person and bring things back to life on a much smaller scale. I am close enough to even help out on the Aurora and I actually plan to offer labor in the future when I can build up vacation time.

[@ammo2222]

What i love most about this Channel is the Fact, that you give away free T-Shirts, even tho i would pay for it! Jokes aside. The Dedication of the Team towards this Beautiful Ship is very Wholesome to Watch. I Love the Combination of Large Projects and the Lessons in Metal Warking and Maritime History. Greetings from Austria!

[@highlysuggestible861]

What do I like the most about this channel? Its proof dreams come true if you work hard enough.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Thank you, still working hard on that dream to come true but hard word does pay off :)

[@EarlB252]

I like to see old stuff, that most people would likely throw away, being restored and this project is that on the next level. This project is a piece of history. I love to see your creative ways of repairing and restoring. Keep up the great work. It's looking awesome.

[@abw1987]

What I love most about this channel is the realistic presentation of a project like this. It isn't glamorous-you just have to grind it out (often with an angle grinder), and it takes time-although I'm sure the end result will be!

[@sleepbootbianca]

What I love about this project? Well, about all’osteria everything! With all your dedicated work you are preserving heritage. Seeing you at work, brings me back to the days of black and white movies , ladies in evening dresses, man in tuxedo’s and evening sunsets…… As the (femele😊)owner of an historic tugboat here in The Netherlands I do know very well how much work and dedication it takes to keep it afloat. With or without a T-shirt: I am cheering you on all the way from the other side of the ocean!! Lots of greetings and blessings! Chantal

[@ralphn0lo]

Like the dedication to bringing the old girl back to life.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Thank you, It’s really been a pleasure and an adventure.

[@crockadilemick]

What I love most about this channel is to watch old rusty areas turn into beautiful new areas. I use to restore old homes many years ago so I can relate to this project and all your hard work.

[@johnjason7204]

I like the way you as a group get along with one goal "Fix The Boat" If I were a young man again I would be a volunteer looking to sea duty as a final reward for all the hard work.

[@garryreeve824]

I have to say I admire your efforts to save this historic ship, being the first ship allowed to be built by Blohm+Voss post war. She comes from a great pedigree of famous (or some would say infamous) ships such as Wilhelm Gustloff and Bismark. Well done sir! I look forward to more episodes of this thrilling project.

[@edspill2643]

In 1971 I was 12 years old and my first time on a ship. The Wappen Von Hamburg took my family on a day trip. At one point I was standing at the front of the deck above the bow and two guys came out below me carrying a big new looking coiled up rope and threw it off the bow into the sea. They also had a good bratwurst. I like the channel I did some welding in the Air Force. If I was close I’d be there to help.

[@garyburgmylifeandtimes6354]

Let’s be honest, what’s not to like. You are saving a beautiful historic ship from certain decay and rot if you and your wonderful crew had not decided to take on this huge project. And from what I’m seeing, you’re going to make it better than it ever was and a living, working museum of nautical history.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Thanks Gary, A museum is definitely part of the goal. If I spend all of my money and never make a dime from this project then I’m still proud to have save this iconic ship at all costs.

[@markgallagher1376]

I love seeing this ship be transformed from something that looked like it was ready for the scrap yard into a beautiful ship again.

[@mikeunum]

I love how you guys are working together, the jokes, the technic, the enthusiasme and all the metal working to safe a piece of history. I learned some things about that. I came over from 'Ship Happens' month ago and locked all the videos before that time and follow every new one. You guys sometimes the highlight of my day when my L4/L5 hernia kills me.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

My favorite part about Ship Happens is that each and every subscriber means so much to them. Their group is much like a big family. I hope to one day be on that same level. I appreciate your coming to join this group..

[@steveprasuhn9361]

Several reasons come to mind regarding why I love the Aurora Project. The ship was built the dame year I was born. I also have German heritage. The camaraderie you share with your deck hands. Mostly I appreciate your desire to preserve history! I hope one day to set foot on the deck and perhaps even sail the high seas! Thanks for sharing your project with us via KZbin!!!

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Thanks for watching. Great to have some positive people like yourself fallowing this great ship. By the way. While ahi ship served in Greece, her smoke stack logo was an iron cross. She was called the Delos.

[@ericchristensen2576]

I am an amateur restorer myself, mostly furniture and automotive, so I really enjoy that aspect. I have been in tactical military aircraft maintenance my whole career, as a hobby I enjoy learning about the nautical world. It is quite different from where I spend my days and this helps me to escape and relax. This makes these videos doubly enjoyable.

[@rontol66]

What I like most is the sympathetic restoration, reusing original materials. It can only be original once.

[@AuroraRestorationProject]

Thanks, Kind of feels right to use original metal from the ship to make the repairs.

[@FullRythym]

What I love most about this channel is that, along with watching your journey of learning how to restore a ship, we’re also watching you learn about making KZbin content and the video making process! With each upload, I can see you guys dial it in more and more, and each video is even more entertaining than the last!

As a cruise enthusiast, I find the channel enjoyable because you are bringing back to life, a vessel that gave enjoyment to thousands over it's lifetime! I have been watching since the first episode and am amazed to see this old girl slowly coming back to life. The skill and drive the whole team brings is just what she needs to hopefully make her sea worthy! I wish I could sail on her when you guys (and girl) complete the Aurora!! And to imagine, this all began with a notion from Craigslist!!

[@kevinbrianburke]

My favorite part is the restoration of a tired old beauty into its former glory…and the crew!! The crew are a great group of people!! 😊

[@oldsharkie3786]

What I love most of this project is the feeling of anticipation. I so look forward to the day this glorious ship sounds her horn and moves from her moorings under her own power. You are doing her proud and she will serve you well.

She is definitely a worth project and I too very much look forward to the day she may again get underway. But even more so the day I can say that this ship will 100% be around for another 50 years…

I love how everyone involved with this project is only too happy to share their knowledge with those of us watching. I feel every time I watch one of these videos, I'm a little smarter than when I began the video. Thank you for that.

I love seeing a normal person, not a big corporation, restoring a significant piece of history. It's a great "Behind the scenes" story of what is possible now thanks to the internet, and will hopefully inspire others to restore something from our past. We have nothing if we do not have our history.

To find a boat like Aurora, with such an amazing heritage and for it to be accessible for a private restoration is just incredible. I love the team that you have around you. Doug (SV Seeker) may have the boat the internet built, Leo (Tally Ho) has the boat the internet restored, but you Sir have the boat the internet will watch with the mouth agog. Best of luck to you and your boat!

Thanks Stephen, I have been watching SV Seeker and it’s really pretty amazing to see what Doug has accomplished. Haven’t watched Tally Ho but will dig in and see what it’s all about. Interestingly enough I never thought to even give KZbin a try until a few friends kept pushing. Simon and Gemma from Ship Happens helped launch my channel and I couldn’t be more greatful. Hopefully the world will fallow our every move and join in and help support our effort. I’m already amazed at how far we have come because of opening peoples eyes here on KZbin.
