Charting Our Course: What's Next For Our Sealine S34?

S05E73 - We continue with getting our #sealine S34 ship-shape after a prolonged period of winter and lack of use - ironically, she must now come out of the water for some essential maintenance which we hope to be detailing for you very soon.
As well as completing the cleaning work (mostly), we talk about polishing our gelcoat, life on the river and looking forward to what lays in store for the coming season.
Finally, we bring you some of the memories that we have built since launching our channel 5 years ago - yes we are officially 5 years old!

It's nice to see someone other than myself likes the boat to be clean. Mind you I can't move as fast as you and a band never strikes up whilst watching me 🙈😂

I think it is my 'clown like' ability doing stuff - the guy with the sousaphone always gets in the way though!!

The joy of boating matey. Service use service use. Great vlog as usual. Must take some tips

[@lovelifeloveboat]

Did I mention the amount of pain killers I seem to need for days after? Antifouling will be fun - I vowed never to do it again... but that will be coming around again after Easter!!!!

Can you do amazon link for the 40 quid buffer/drill thingy and that cutting compound. Cheers

Hi thank you for your comment, I cant find the item on amazon however, it looks like Sealy and Draper both have similar mini-polishers available. This is the link to the model I bought which is now showing as 'out of stock' www.ebay.co.uk/itm/166610453212 I also use this corded and much more powerful version with a 7inch lambs wool bonnet www.amazon.co.uk/Silverline-264569-1200W-Sander-Polisher/dp/B002QS1LZ2/ref=sr_1_28?crid=HWT734QOXJHS&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.ZID8KRcxDR_VydaVX39EnEv0XeKips7ZSVsuBX7sIoUaex_b2cikWMWeZQ86avxvPfvlT8iCxkZSndLfY11NbppWheI36yH0ENz7Jpx4sMOW9tLAyQxmu_uUxFvtbFCKJ3hGPff9DohI-DoZfe0YeB4PEFRFFspIwuRc916LNar1rnCwYjJEWru77RObNuzt46H2ORk7hmTETTn0xYD4WxT07VMxNxJEulGgwuzkIzHGzNT9mzPiCigdudpJoNoJnuYhXO7aiReVhrWwFm0F_cQTSpQVwqxolgfOn6Uy-Jk.KVMkmcQUQpGab9oWBCVJe0CJOXcDIBoYr92lNiNOBqs&dib_tag=se&keywords=vanity+polisher&qid=1711263209&sprefix=canitu+polisher%2Caps%2C94&sr=8-28 The polish is here at Marine Superstore but probably can be bought locally www.marinesuperstore.com/boat-cleaning/polishes-waxes/3m-perfect-it-gelcoat-light-cutting-comp?attribute_size=946ml&msclkid=5ffe1d1337131ea7c4ce78ecfbbedfa2&GS%3A%20Below%20100%20stock%20and%20remaining%20products%20%3E%20No%20Audience&Boat%20Cleaning And the top coat is good old Starbrite marine polish www.marinesuperstore.com/boat-cleaning/polishes-waxes/starbrite-marine-polish-473ml
