It's easy to compliment Matt on his work and explanation of his reasons and method but here's a shout out for Janneke and the superb job of documenting this project. What a great combo.

Great job! Thanks for the shoutout in this vid too. It's great to know that you've got some value from our content 😁 Keep up the awesome work 👍

I also watch the Sampson Boat Company Tally Ho build and it is fascinating watching the difference between the modern technical build here and the old woodworking skills on Tally Ho. Good morning inspector you are obviously happy with the work judging by your happy state of sleep. 😊

I’m up-to-date!!! I’ve been binging for 2 weeks from episode 1 til now and now I have to wait a week for the next video! What a PROJECT! Your level of craftsmanship and persistence is super! I’m not a sailor, but I’ve dreamed of sailing and building a boat my whole life. I’m 66 now, so, it probably won’t happen, but it’s so good to see a young couple working hard together to make their dream come true. Keep up the good work! I’ll be watching!

A lot of work, but they’ll be hell for stout! I could have used your Mom’s help when I was building boats! Right on Mom!👏👏👏

Having worked structural repair on military and civilian aircraft for 47 years my last 20 years consisted of bond work. When we laminated multiple layers of fiberglass or carbon fiber, we would "debulk" between several layers to remove any trapped air and remove excess resin. That's something you might try on any future layups. Someone mentioned their concerns about the bond between the chain plate and the hull. Anytime we were attaching two precured parts as important as these chain plates it would be with a structural adhesive to insure a good bond and never a cold bond. Just food for thought.

Love the hymnal you have chosen as background music! “Leaning On the Everlasting Arms”❤️✝️🆙

The excitement in your voice was noticeable after successfully completing the first chainplate.

Liked the video already based on previous quality. Now it's time to watch the video.

I think that it's pretty cool and fun that you get to work with your Mom.

Great update 2x👍 I live on the north coast of the UK looking out at the North Sea we also have the saying about correct clothing for the weather.

A trusting supportive and loving family the recipe for fulfilling dreams.

For the safety of the chain plates so happy Matt’s mother was involved in making sure it’s done correctly. :). Above all the inspector was pretending not to be interested. Seems like Matt made both rest well.

Good shout out to Shane from @youngbarnacles - it's super interesting channel on the technical side of composites. As for the weight diff between your old s/s and carbon chainplates - just crazy!

[@truesdel]

I like the music you use to accompany your videos.
