BUILDING RIDICULOUS UNNECESSARY LUXURY ITEMS ON THE BOAT!

[@FubarKen]

Things are coming together. Looking good.

[@c.wrightkunkle3681]

Thanks Pat

[@andymarshall2201]

Matt, you crack me up. I love your “can do” attitude. There are thousands of carpenters out there who wouldn’t even attempt what you are doing. Gangster style is winning.

[@tuffydowlingjr9801]

Dammm bra you killin me i swear

[@billgraham5609]

Oh Matt I see so much work and so little sailing and travel with Project Patty in the boat 🤣🤣😂😂

[@kennethmays5822]

Keep at it! Starting to take shape!

[@ronhytoff6385]

Thanks so much for making me smile....I really enjoy watching you guys love each other whilst working so hard.

[@ben8mag]

Hang in there. Once you get that boat back in the water, you’re going to be so proud of all the work you put into it.

[@briansprague3830]

I mentioned this before but will say this differently just in case it did not register. Those push-button latches (door/drawer clackers) are wonderful on stable ground. But, when rocking and rolling with the weight of the drawers and what is inside those drawers and cabinets, they could (would) activate those spring-loaded devices without your help and self-open when you least want this to happen. If you later find out I'm correct you can add positive locking devices (latches) that would be used when you are sailing and use the push-button style when you're docked.

[@7thstreetgarage196]

Great idea on the cabinet. I think you are going to love it.

[@HopeOfJoe]

OMG 😱 WOW ‼️ Other than paint,the closet project is done. Team work makes the dream work.🎉. See you next week. ✨🌊💨⛵️🏝👙🌞✨

[@bdmenne]

I love that you guys are addicted to the projects. Satisfying for everyone.

[@aniabrandt7]

Great idea with those sliding door's and to extend a space

[@colinking6472]

I have Smoked Black Perspex Doors in my Galley which slide in plastic tracks. Used to have plywood but they always got stuck due to warping. Look great.

[@AbuBaqr]

Best boat couple thus far. Also, love the chemistry.

[@wernerfritsch6436]

21:47 Yeah, that is a professional result with low-cost resources. Hats off to you, Matt.

[@Frindleeguy]

I can't believe you're about to do this whole boat without a single clamp or kreg jig. This is impressive! Y'all are pretty badass,

[@radams009]

I have been making cabinets for 47 years. All you need to do is what you did. jump in on doing it. But think before you start. I think you did a great job of it.

[@spacerangerace]

The party video when the day comes to launch your finished project boat should be a good one. I hope you have a nice celebration party to commemorate the finished project.

[@ssecor40]

5 for 5 Gangsta Matt! Love it... Kristen you rock and keep Matt in line :-) Great progress on boat projects woohoo...

[@jeffemiller1470]

Great to see you two having fun as you go. This is what you will remember the journey.Hey the band aids are off now go go go!!

[@michelebushnik2874]

Wow! You 2 are cranking it out! So love watching this hard work transformation! So excited for you both! Sending love from Reno Nevada, where I wear my GBU sailing shirt proudly!

[@drewcama2488]

You are turning into a cabinet maker! Making your own jigs? Wow like a real carpenter! Every cabinet door/drawer is getting easier and now Kristen's luxury ideas are expanding! A bit late now but I'd suggest you prime your 4x8 sheet of plywood even before you start cutting it up, unless of course you plan on staining it. Oh and those sharpie markers are going to show through any regular paint. It's coming along and we are all rooting for yous!

[@leesydneyharry7958]

True!

[@seridino]

Matt, are you thinking about how that wood is going to hold up over time? Swelling in the wet, salty environment? And also the movement of the boat in general? I'd imagine you'd be well served to be building with these concerns in mind...whilst underway, lots for forces put on the boat and what's in it, that are different than a regular kitchen on land.... best wishes. Fun to watch you and Kristen living the life! Cheers, Sam

[@curtisduncan8043]

Yes, you want to maintain their fit, so sand and seal all surfaces of that plywood, especially the edges, to prevent swelling. Good on ya for taking gangster to a (more) respectable level

[@melvynparkerson9984]

Matt master carpenter , great work fitting the slider for the trash can , and the washer door , you have not done us men any favours as our ladies want a slide out trash can . a must have item now . keep up the good work . going to be a great when completed .

[@chuckhillier4153]

Continuing the awesomeness. Thanks

[@ferdibra]

So good to see you enjoying sailing & the people. Well deserved after a year of slogging in the boat yard.

[@nikcrosina]

what sailing - lol. that will take a while still but in a much improved and fantastic boat!

[@karlmountii9942]

Got to give you two credit…people whom do these projects at home don’t realize how tough it is to do them in tight conditions!!!!…looking great/ there is a finish line in sight!

[@alarmnbob]

Looks Good! You could Try putting a flapper door above the trash door to place trash in can, then just use slider to take trash can out.

[@caribbeanchild]

Best sailing couple. Would be fun to hang out with you guys.

[@iBradWatson]

Matt your absolutely correct about the pathological liars on Pinterest. The wife says don’t even get her started talking about the 5 minute crafts.

[@cadmonkey928]

Carpentree tip! Matt needs to use a wood backer board to screw into to keep his pants together or else they could come apart in rough seas.

[@davidsykes9850]

dear both, nice job, make your drawers look better by tacking hardwood strips to the plywood edges it's very easy and looks smart you can get the strips from any hardware store.your doing a fantastic job.

[@johnwalker6711]

Lookin good there ,be back out on the ocean soon in luxury

[@BohemianBeatster]

You two are fast becoming professional sailboat builders. Well done.

[@kennethlane6125]

About time boatyard Betty started helping out.

[@LosAngelesPilot]

Those long bolts around the mast scare the heck outta me. In a storm, those are the equivalent of death by impalement of the skullz. Cut them off and put on acorn nuts on the few threads left.

[@odysseyofjason]

I will 2nd that !!! Those bolts have been getting on my nerves since I started watching this channel. Totally not Boujie? Bougy? Boushie?

[@Sunshine-ci6wx]

Looking up for completion day celebration. But take your time we are enjoying your adventures. New kitchen project sounds good. Stay safe.

[@sailingsjofagel]

I reckon you might find as you bump around in the galley on passage, that the drawers might open as you use them as a hip-hold. maybe a rail above the top drawer would give you the bracing without opening up the drawers? just a thought. I love the rubbish bin slide - I'm envious..!!! You are reall good with your wood, as it turns out..!! I love this project phase. Your V berth will come up a treat, and I can't wait to see the results. Very luxurious..!! Love Grant, Adelaide South Australia.

[@RR-or5ip]

Just found your channel and love it! Thanks for the laughs and I love the DIY!

[@craigsmith6044]

God having a table saw could help here. Can't cut cabnets with a skil saw realy easy. You guys are doing great with this work. Also pre tap holes.

[@worms1]

@12:20 amazing cut & fit; surgical cabinetmaking

[@walterhoward5686]

I wish I could get Matt access to a nice table saw !!!!! And some mahogany and teak !!!!!

[@terratrekker28]

You guys are almost there and your journey has been just as much of an adventure for us as it has been for you. Soon you can relax on your rebuilt creation with no worries of weak bulkheads or iffy motors. You're almost there! Of course I know the work will never end but that's the life of sailing. I am basically a beginner sailor and plan on being in the Caribbean soon myself, solo. Would like to personally meet the both of you and take you out for dinner and drinks. I enjoy your vids as they are interestingly motivational for me. Will be looking for your next tutorial vid on how to make her happy. Take care and be careful!

[@bradmottishaw467]

I know a lot of people share the costs of their refits and what their lifestyle cost for a year, but I have to say I would really be interested in your expenses more. That is because you two are truly budget sailors and could show people how it can be done, and what to expect if you are budget minded. GREAT episode my friends. Oh and Matt it does hurt to be that good, my wife told me so. :) Drill holes in a coin to use as a button :)

[@jhernellmusic]

No longer "Sailing GBU", now "Project Boat GBU". Fun to watch you two go through the headache of a boat remodeling project!

[@wadeshore]

Excellent, very creative. Looking good 👍🏻

[@MrPaulcm1]

Your boat is going to look amazing when you're both done. Love your vlogs.

[@charlesholt8773]

You gays are always good for AT LEAST ONE SMILE!

[@t9cstudio]

Y'all are hilarious!! Your videos make my day! Thanks!🤣

[@themechanicsjourney9503]

Kudos to you both keep up the hard work!

[@Redraven059]

Matt put a drawer nob on the top left corner of your trash slider. That way you can push it to open and pull it easily if it needs a little help when it starts to get full and maybe a little heavy.

[@DavidWieder216951]

Good series about boat rehab on a budget. He's some advice from a woodworker and cabinet maker hack. THROW THAT IMPACT DRIVER INTO THE ANCHOR LOCKER! That tool is made for driving long screws into 2x 10 decking. There is no control on speed as you are finding out. Get yourself a magnet bit holder and chuck it into the drill with the appropriate bit. Set the number on the chuck low, around say 8 and practice the slow even squeeze on the trigger. NO Pulsing! If the drill 'clutches out' set the number higher. You will find that you won't strip the screws. Now carry on Wood Meister !

[@hharadon]

Looks like some much improved carpentry. Now you have a big project covering it all up with veneer ! Good Luck

[@tartansailor]

Keep the good mood and enthusiasm, you are on the right track. Cheers

[@dudleyryan6396]

Would love to see you guys sailing again.

[@nathanmountford7768]

You guys are doing great! Excellent to see you guys tackling these projects one after another!

[@antonios8975]

I started my Sunday yesterday by watching your latest video. Good stuff. That sliding trash can arrangement is boss. I have one of those in my kitchen and it works great. That dragon door (😂) can't be original. Looks like an old bunk board. Sliders work great. The only issue with those is the tracks can collect stuff (like food bits), but minor point really. Matt, as I'm watching you do carpentry I keep thinking you would benefit by using a plane, like a simple block plane. The key is that it be sharp. So the next time you pass through Home Depot, I would pick up a block plane and a water stone. You may already have a sharpening stone aboard, but if not get a water stone which you can also use for your cutlery. Oil stones work, but a water stone you can use right at you galley sink. I was a boat carpenter/shipwright/systems installer for many years so I appreciate what you two are accomplishing. Also, that jig for the forstner bit is the solution when they skitter. Usually they have a small spur to keep them centered, but if you're also drilling overlapping holes, the jig is essential...as you've found out.

[@CleverOctopus]

Nice work on the luxury trashcan. The garbage is looking good too :-D

[@paulmegna8468]

Your video skills are awesome. Muti camera shots , dialogue and humor. Don’t listen to these haters or those that only want sailing videos and have no patience for the information you provide. Sailing is the easy part..

[@GeneMatheney]

Sliders... The pocket door x2 of the cabinet world. :-D love your channel! Sincerely, Newest Fan

[@4711Pegasus]

Those click and open doors might open by themselves at sea. And one day you will get back to the sea. Perhaps you’ll find you need a clever way to lock them closed. Love your work. And delivered with good humour.

[@Putttn]

Amazing your patience.

[@TurnOffYourTV]

Gonna be the best summer yet... and the thumbnail is hysterical ..

[@Goldfish0259]

You guys should definitely do a live lol. That would be awesome.

[@cosmoslogic9088]

Wow you guys are the GOAT of boat style for sure rave on i knew you would do this big time you have been bitten by the luxury build of all time love your videos. Sarcasm this project will only take a few weeks at best, now day 70 is staring us in the face.

[@davidorourke5795]

Hey Matt, amazing job with the cabinet drawers. Most people who build that stuff have a machine shop. To accomplish what you did with hand tools especially on a boat where there are almost no straight lines, that deserves maximum respect!!!! Well done you!!

[@jbboating3268]

You guys really make a small space in to a big living area, super job!

[@chrisrichardson4632]

Very good boat reno video, but maybe some outside shots would be nice once in a while. Would like to see where you live and you need a break every now and then to do some drone shots.

[@colinking6472]

Those flat bits are called Forstner bits. The ones I use have a little point to stop them wandering but I do use a jig to make sure.

[@btrent9244]

Outstanding Guys. Boat yard Betty AKA project Tina and Matt the “can do guy” are making it happen. Great job 👍🇺🇸😎...

[@dadadit]

You make it look easy, but, I know you two are busting your butts on this project. You have inspired me to fix all those little things around the house. Thanks!

[@lentongrovetrust5201]

Still one of the most fun sailing channels around.

[@jerrybailey3095]

I've watched all the work you two have done on the outside of your vessel, and I think your doing a great job. The Inside is going to look beautiful. Two thumbs way up.👍👍Take care and be safe.😎

[@rbnhood39]

Double speed Kristen was pretty funny. Matt make the port hole window above the stove so it can open, then Kristen can fling her food trash out. You guys are nuts 🥜. 😂

[@B.E.Long.63]

I JUST LOVE YOU GUY'S, WELL GUY AND GAL.

[@loubonaparte5063]

Mean Piano Hinge right there!!!! Might want to save it.. never know how you could use that again. Also... LOVE the sliding trash. I'd consider spraying her down with something before topping her off as the chinesium metal they make them out of today might suffer in salt environment... maybe even spray it down with some WD or anything on occasion... Just a thought as someone also fighting corrosion on boats.. LOVE the channel.

[@robertlafollette2236]

You guys make my day, Thanks and God Bless.

[@Backnine907]

Not only the funniest couple on the water, but the coolest music on the internet.

[@jimfisk4474]

Hi Carpenter Matt, jack of all trades and good at a lot of them and I can't forget good o l e Kristen who is your great companion and supporter and knows a lot of stuff too.

[@davidknight3249]

OMG, Making me laugh. Nice idea for the forstner bit jig. Some suggestions. The little ornamental shelf looking piece of wood to the left of where you are putting the trash can, you might want to remove it for the 2 inches more room. The pile of stuff you have opposite the stove-time for a dumpster run. Also since you're replacing the stove, get the old one out of there for more room to get around the kitchen space. Waiting for the continuation of the GBU saga.

[@cairohollingsworth2272]

Fantastic... Love watching you guys! And you can see that she can throw a punch! Look out dude , keep on keeping that boat looking better. Or else...lol

[@jackwalker3582]

Sharing that small space must take a lot of patience with each other. Remember to not sweat the small things. In the end they are all small things. The work you put in now will pay big dividends on the water. I am glad you included us in your boat project. You mission statement is in your title. You share the good when it is good, the bad on occasion and the ugly when it is necessary. I will send beer money. :)

[@ChillingwithDavidB]

Thanks folks, it's coming along nicely...I just like mentioning fishing so you don't forget.. Love ❤️ from 🇨🇦 🍁.

[@danteparco7212]

Can't wait to see the finish product, love the energy

[@hoochin]

Nothing is ridiculous or unnecessary if it's what you want to make your home (boat) more comfortable. You guys work hard every week, you might as well make things as comfortable as possible.

[@stevethuss2707]

JUST LUV THE 2 OF YOURS COMPATABILITY & DON'T THROW AWAY WHAT U 2 HAVE (TRUE SOULMATES).

[@djkillachris]

Project Pat! You guys are awesome. I grew up on that in Memphis in the 90’s

[@gregmartell7273]

Another great video! Thankyou! Keep up the great work. It's all a learning process and you're doing it. The "flatbit" I think you called it is perfect for what you were doing...slow and yes use another peice of wood too hold it and get depth. For boring holes through wood, fiberglass, etc..I use speedbores. They're fast, clean, and easier on the wrists.

[@michaelwillis3932]

I like that you used a level on a moving structure. LOL!!!

[@Stan_L]

Great video! Thanks for sharing.

[@brucedan3307]

Project Patti is the perfect name, just like Boatyard Betty !! Love your channel and watching your progress. Matt is the straight man!! Keep it up, I am actually learning sumptin !! 😄
