Checking a Catalina 30 for a friend and boy do we have some issues.

The Sailing Project Artemis S4. Ep 56
Happy Monday all. This week I am starting season 4 off with a bang and it looks like this season will have a ton of boat work. Over the last year a good friend of mine from NEMO has been loving Artemis. Well yesterday him and I went to take a look at a 1982 Catalina 30 SR. This boat has good bones but of boy does she need a lot of work. let me know what you think in the comments.
The catalina 30 compression post block is going to be a zinger...
Hope you enjoy
Season 4 will still have boat work but I plan to add much more fun....
Shout out to ‪@GoPro‬ for making recording all of these super easy.
‪@Ugowear‬ for keeping my gear safe and dry
‪@spyoptic‬ for keeping my eyes from going sun blind while I record these videos.

Water leaks on stbd chain plate as witnessed by stains on top of hanging locker. Both chain plates need to be removed, inspected for crevice corrosion (cracks), and replaced if bad (or just replaced..) Replacements available from Garhaurer Marine and/or Catalina Direct). Then reinstalled with proper sealant.

[@Sailing.Artemis]

Yes the entire boat needed to be gone through the new owner opted to do the leaks and deck on her own however it is coming along nicely

[@Highwoodmalibu]

You hit the nail on the head, it's all about time! That mast step should be interesting!

[@Sailing.Artemis]

I'm excited to do the project for him Nothing like gaining some more skills

[@garrylycos4795]

Bryan, I made my own keel socket. I went to menards and bought 2 11/8 inch. Deep sockets cut the one-off and welded it to the end of the other socket. Of course, lined the flats up on the inside. Then ground it off and painted it came out. Great cost me 20 bucks, maybe 22 bucks.

[@Sailing.Artemis]

I was thinking about doing the same thing for a friend My socket was over $100 Love it that you were crafty

[@frankthomas2705]

love the new intro. You are keeping me hooked on these videos. I am really looking forward to watching you transform this one

[@Sailing.Artemis]

Coming soon! my man

[@sarahsophiaolijarczyk1094]

I am also looking foward to watching (and helping) brian and my dad tranform the catalina 30 into my family's dream boat!! doing great!!

[@Sailing.Artemis]

@@sarahsophiaolijarczyk1094 gonna be a lot of work but it's worth it

[@therangeguy]

Oh boy Looks like the boat is in the right hands

[@Sailing.Artemis]

[@user-fb9uy5wq3m]

[@og-life263]

Looking forward to these videos Really interested in the compression post

[@Sailing.Artemis]

lol as am i think i got this

[@jonfroyd8658]

My offer was just accepted on an 85 Catalina 30 and awaiting haul out and survey. Your video are inspiring. Fingers crossed!

[@Sailing.Artemis]

Hell yeah my man Just check the keep volt stub

[@MysticVic1]

Very curious about REPAIRING the compression post. Lived on a 79 Cat 30 YEAR ROUND in RI ... I could have had a great You Ytube Channel Loved that boat. Got chased off by kidney cancer. Shopping again. Real interested in another C30 because" I know it." God I let it go cheap. It was top notch. All I did was impove it all the time. Keeping an eye open for the CP fix... House jack ???? Where? How?

[@Sailing.Artemis]

So my friend decided to pass on this yacht If your interested let me know Basically need to cut out the stub then install the jack The jack is rather small and is only 160 on Amazon

[@flyinryan3148]

Can't wait

[@Sailing.Artemis]

Ditto

[@stevegoldberg8845]

What are your thoughts on the water intrusion effecting the compression post? Seal between the deck and mast possibly compromised?

[@Sailing.Artemis]

No I believe it to be years of ice box and shower sitting in the bilge However I do plan on performing a bunch of tests to see if we have leaks This is one reason when I vacuum out artemis's bilge every time I put ice in the box

[@saltydog6015]

Wow you got your hands full

[@Sailing.Artemis]

ehh wont be that bad

[@finditfixitsailit9322]

Nice job with the survey!! Be sure to use a closed cell foam to encapsulate the house jack when you replace the mast step.

[@Sailing.Artemis]

My man glad you watched this Your the reason I feel like I can complete the repair for him Keep up the great videos And thank you

[@finditfixitsailit9322]

You got it man! It’s Always fun working on sail boats. I enjoy your videos so keep ‘em coming. And don’t hesitate to ask if you need anything thing.

[@gynat5968]

No torque wrench? How do you determine actual play?

[@Sailing.Artemis]

You 100 % need a torque wrench That video did not show us using it we did the next day

[@TOMVUTHEPIMP]

Forget the keel bolts. This boat is a complete POS and needs a new......EVERYTHING.

[@Sailing.Artemis]

It was a POS for sure but you should see it now Almost done and was not $$$$$
