Changing the design once again: WATERTIGHT idea for the aft salon WOODEN BENCHES - Sailing Yabá #79

[@SailingYaba]

Hey guys! We hope you enjoy watching our benches coming to life! Just a reminder that this Wednesday a bonus episode will be airing, at the same time as always! And we have a feeling you don’t want to miss out, so stay tuned!!

[@gato_fofo]

Sorry, wouldn't it be the case to take advantage of the sanded wood and apply a coat of peroba oil or similar products to hydrate the wood?

[@schuttrostig5729]

Wooo yes i am already chilled what will be in the bonus episode! Good news, thats for sure !

[@michaelvanwinkle7919]

Are the outside edges of the benches routed to give them a smooth rounded surface? The benches really look nice! Hope you enjoy them with friends and family for years to come.

[@shable1436]

I just wanted to comment on the balls of that old man to run a table saw like that holding it down with his hands instead of using a wooden push tooling for and inch or less of play from the spinning blade.

[@elrobo3568]

I sit here as an old boat repair shop owner and custom furniture maker and I am just fascinated watching you and your merry band of shipwrights making the best parts for your boat with the crudest of tools. I love watching you and them figure things out and make magic happen. I am torn between wanting the project finished so you can start your new adventures and not wanting the building process to end. I guess it's sort of selfish but I so love watching the "team" working to fulfil your dreams. Thank you!

[@SailingYaba]

Thank you very much!! We have to confess that even though we cannot wait to set sail, we know we will miss our days at the shipyard, so we understand why you feel torn, as we feel exactly the same! ❤️

[@scottjones5221]

yes so satisfying 😌 to watch

[@ianallan2337]

@@SailingYaba Make sure you get Nico out for a cruise. He amazes me. He even has all his fingers! Craftsman extraordinaire.

Best part of building the boat or ship is to float in one

[@lissainkd2580]

Watch all your videos and love Sunday morning all over again , but with all due respect , that little man with the cigarette is Elvis . You guys have been blessed to have found him . Love you all . Aloha

[@idreecemian2192]

Nazo, Zeca and team mates are wizards of their trade, I have not been less than fascinated watching them coming up problem solving, not only that Zeca think of multiple solutions to to any problem he envisages to pop up, same is Naza in sorting out problems, a very thoughtful pair.

[@marilenecunha3411]

I'm following every step of your beautiful work with Yabá! I sailed many times on Yabá, when she was at her best ! Happy times with family and friends and everything was perfect! Those are great memories that l 'll keep forever ! Congratulations for the excellent job you are doing, with so much love. Your dog was a puppy and now ....almost a sailor !!!! My family and l follows you every sunday . Um grande abraço de São Paulo !!!!

[@patriciasampaio595]

Só boas lembranças!!! Foram tempos maravilhosos!! Ainda bem que a Yabá voltará a singrar esses mares com toda sua imponência!! MP.. mandei uma mensagem para vocês no Instagram.. abraços

Safety Black dog looks on over the project with pride...😄

[@justacuppajoe]

These gents who are rebuilding your boat are true artisans. I do hope to see a completion of the rebuild one day with a celebration at sea with all of them aboard sharing a toast for a most amazing boat that they helped to give new life to. :)

[@nicobogaard2315]

The work on the tablesaw is called making a rebate. Fabulous craftmanship from these men, also lovely wood

[@SVPearler]

My Grandfather would have loved to see these guys work. He was a ships carpenter. He had the nickname of mm Ziggy. Everything had to be mm perfect. Great work by all.

[@portfoliofotoz]

Yaba is the cherry on the top of my Sunday.

[@cherylsmith4868]

The attention to detail is fantastic...i see many a conversation in the future sitting on the benches at that table....it will become the table to navigate future trips from, to make important decisions..to eat...to relax..too socialise...and to edit and to sit together with a Sundowner while you intoduce the new weekly vid....i feel we will all be sitting vicariously on the new bench with you for many many more memmories to come on Yaba.❤

[@Tugger4me1]

NEZO IS MY WOODWORKING HERO!

[@SailingYaba]

Agreed!! ❤️

[@bolo863]

Honestly you have the cutest dog of all the sailing channels. He sounds like a squeeker toy when he barks. And me saying this is huge because I'm a cat lover.

[@gordongreenwood9491]

Every week I read the comments and feel the love and devotion your followers have for you two the shipwrights the fur baby..you shine brightness on the dark times we are seeing.

The bench looks great. It will be enjoyed for many miles of sailing and many sunsets views with the anchors down. Enjoy my friends.

[@gregbolitho9775]

Thanks to the neighbours and their table saw. Rippa job That bloke on the cut! Yaba, is coming along really well. Thanks m8, you and yours all your tool drivers stay safe and well.

[@richierich2208]

Your spontaneity is amazing! Am hooked each week watching and have done so since the beginning.🥰 Most of all, so great to see you change the design to suit your needs on a whim. That's how it should be. Bringing an 'old Girl' back to life so that she'll be better than ever.

[@Gregemio]

I love old mate with the ciggie. Best part of every episode. :-)

[@journeymanadventure]

Gday guys, the dripline thing for the seats is called a gutter. Like the gutters on the roof they collect and carry away the water. Lovin' all those pirate ships, they must look great when there all out working 🏴‍☠️🍺

[@fxpthl]

It continues to amaze me at precise your craftsman are with each and every cut! I hope these men have young apprenticeship workers to learn with these men or I fear their talents will be lost!

[@mrfarmer532]

This channel is by far the greatest woodworking project on KZbin. I wouldn’t miss a single episode 😍

[@aaronpaul5990]

For sanding wear a filter mask ... you still have some flying around and it makes a difference in how much dust you get into your throat :p

[@eleanorchapple8772]

Nezo is a king among carpenters. He cuts bits and pieces in big hunks of wood curves. straight lines, angles of all kinds and he brings it to the workplace ….. will it fit? This time? Of course everything slots tightly and perfectly into place and I want to jump up an cheer!

[@kevine.phillips7578]

Good morning to our favorite KZbin folks! The work on the benches is incredible. All those compound cuts make me dizzy. I’m betting the lead carpenter has these in his head and not written down. Absolutely remarkable. Closer!!

[@SailingYaba]

Good morning Kevin!! Thank you for the loving words as always! You are right! Nezo planned it all in his head, we just got to go along with him! hehe

[@snertlegrubber]

I love the folding ruler Niko uses - no high tech there! Think it was the one that Noah used to build the Ark....

[@billbunter7255]

Been watching from day one. The old boys doing great job. Love from Australia

[@jimwilder5578]

Man your boat is going to look awesome when it gets done.🍻🍻🍻 Can't wait to see how she Sales.

[@mchurch3905]

Nezo is a wood surgeon! In place of forceps and scalpel he uses a handsaw and chisel. Amazing precision.

[@williamwoolcock]

Little bitty details, bevels eyeballed and perfect, amazing.

[@creageous]

You are going to have so much fun on that boat!

What a lovely episode again. It's getting so beautiful. We love to see the carpenters do their work. They have golden hands! Like we say in the netherland: vakmanschap is meesterschap! (Ben can translate😊) You both work great too and do a good job filming! Keep going strong!

Your videos are fantastic. They are my favourite Sunday entertainment BUT, they could be a little longer please. Waiting the whole week for just 23 minutes is so disappointing as I want more 😄. You guys are fantastic, awesome team building a magnificent sailing vessel. ⛵️ Keep up the superb videos.

[@SailingYaba]

Thank you Gary! Glad you enjoy our videos so much!

When the boat is all done, enjoy, for the rest of you're ownership you both with constantly be working to preserve the wooden parts.

Absolutely blown away to see what the craftsman's that are helping to build your boat do every week. It is amazing to see what can be accomplished with simple tools. Thank you for sharing

[@klazyy641]

I continue to be so impressed with your creative crew---and I nearly lost my mind during some of the sawing and arms being soooooo close to the vertical blade! Ha! I have always been a bit of a worrier. Yaba looks so ready to be wrapped up and in the water where she belongs and you all are the ones making it happen. Thanks for bringing us along again. Oh, yes, give your dock mascot a couple of hearty hugs and scratches from someone way up north of you.

[@SailingYaba]

Thank you very much!

[@thomcoolidge6524]

The storage space under the saloon benches must be enormas. WOW! More than my whole boat. Great plan.

[@lord.jonrogers4636]

Ben and EP., Schooner looking great. Ye it's like going to a furniture shop buying an item you think will look great in the entrance hall and finding, it just does not look like you imagined it.. There are going to be lots of times you feel your plan needs adjustments. Part of the fun. I built an RV from a double axle bus. Man did I argue with myself. But once finished with a little rethinking it is worth it. Well done as usual. Be good.

[@avonneave2131]

The design of the Vessel is absolutely magnificent, a true ocean going streamline, love the design of the poop deck, so comfortable an area seated around that table and love the design of the Helms room. Every episode is looked greater and greater, so rapidly is the development now. Awesome. Nezo is like a walking, living library, so rich is his experience and knowledge of carpentry, joinery and Shipwright design, his knowledge alone is priceless, his skill level purely awesome. Say G,day for me and all the best regards from here on the West Coast side of Australia 🌏 Cape Naturaliste

The more I look at that boat the more you can see what a nice big home she is gonna make excellent choice but for all the work you've put in her you probably could have gotten a new one but hey if you have problems in the future you will definitely know every inch or should I say centimeter of her

Hola MP, Hola Ben. Me gustan mucho sus videos y espero cada uno nuevo para ver el progreso en el Trabajo que llevan y como muestran muy bién los detalles. Me gustaría oir las voces de sus Carpinteros en dialogos con ustedes. Hacerlos más partícipes de los Videos no solo en las apariciones en Cámara trabajando. Quizás haciendo alguna pregunta o comentario junto a ellos enriquecería aún más el atractivo de cada video. Sé que para tí MP sería mas fácil ya que hablas también Portugués y podrías dar ese aporte. Les dejo un gran abrazo desde Buenos Aires.

[@MikeC19100]

A lot of work going on in this episode, but it's looking great so far. The cut the carpenters made on the table saw is called a Rabbet cut. Sometimes they are used to make joints with a rabbet on both corner boards. That makes them a lot stronger than a simple butt-joint is because it offers more area for gluing and the two rabbet joints support each other so it's even stronger.

[@stvooplayhouse]

You 2 are awesome 👍

[@praeliora]

The details are really taking shape now, I like the captain's new boat, that would make a perfect tender for Yaba 😉

[@jaybyrdsshenanigans]

Ben and MP I am absolutely amazed every time I get a chance to catch up on your restoration videos and see the skills of these boat builders absolutely amazing guys!!!

[@robertjerome1889]

I love watching the progress every week.

[@Davidcallard]

I'm wondering why you need to put hinges on those bench tops! Wouldn't it be easier and better to be able to just lift them on or off as desired? They're definitely not going to be going anywhere as they are! You certainly like your wild colour schemes down there... and so do I ! Have you thought about how you will paint Yaba? I have been speculating a bit about colours. What do you think about a black hull with lots of different colour accents? Then there's the sails to think about! They will have to be a colour of some kind: burnt orange with a black hull and accents? I'm sure that your shipwrights will have plenty of suggestions for colour schemes too! I think it's going to be a lot of fun for everyone! 🤩💖❤
