I worry about your feeling of motivation mate, I`m 71, sitting in my little "office" been following you for ages, christ mate, your motivating me to do more little jobs that I do, your never alone with us following you.. Your doing great work with so much detail.. THANKS (Ian) UK..

[@ProjectBrupeg]

She’s coming along great. It’s nice seeing you get to these last underwater jobs. Can’t wait till she is floating again!

[@MikeM-of2if]

Taking on a big project like you are doing can definitely be tough to get through, I think I can speak for everyone here, we are all rooting for you and can't wait to see you get through it. Keep up the great work, you are getting so close. Stay well!

[@cliffstevenson5773]

So glad to see your new video. Enjoyed the technical details as always, and the narrative. Please don't lose heart. What you are doing is inspiring to many of us. I only wish I could drop by with a beer and kibbitz!

[@stephenreese5921]

Every job done, is motivating enough. At each section completed, another milestone is accomplished. Keep going!

[@stephensimpson5283]

Keep going mate, you are so close now. I don't mind slinging you $$$ for the build. Its something small on my end but what we get in return is massive. Such enjoyment! Thanks.

[@jayben00]

No doubt this boat will grow old gracefully with you.

[@adventure002006]

Great video. Getting excited that build is nearing the end. You will end up with one amazing solid and reliable boat. Treasure hunting is on my bucket list. keep telling my wife we will retire into treasure hunting. Efficient boat, side scan radar, ROV, Scuba gear, dredge and drone would be a great treasure hunting package.

You are the king of digging deep Stu,Keep up the good work buddy. Rossco

Hey Stu, Live in Florida, USA - We have a sulphur crested cockatoo; just like the one bugging you just feet away! HAHA! His name is Jake; He will give a scream once and awhile when he wants attention or his way. Such cheeky buggers those birds are! Great progress on the troller! Best, Nick.

Nice update. Good to see the packing. I was wondering when it might turn up. Glad to hear you're coming stateside, sorry you won't be coming through Colorado. If you do, stop for a bite and a beer. We're pretty much a lock for steak and suds. Whatever you've heard, we're actually pretty easygoing people as a rule (and no, we're not all high on dope), but we move at a slower pace, and that bugs both Californians and New Yorkers in equal measure. I hope everybody's nice to you when you're here.

[@adolfofrancisco4551]

Motivation is easy just seeing one of the first videos of the project and see how far you came. You’re doing a great job. Love the Chanel

[@DJRoach520]

you dont even know how tempted i am to make the 12 hr drive to tulsa to meet you both at the same time. love both of your projects!!!

[@jillgardiner8924]

Stu ,mate .Its time to chill.What will happen will happen.But make it happen when you are ready. With a project that you have undertaken,and the perfectionist that you are,it is going to take

[@rossprivate5456]

6: 50 ,i know how you feel and especially since you are doing most of the work yourself it becomes more of a chore than a project.sometimes its good to just have someone there beside you as emotional support even if they arent actually helping you . cant wait to see the boat in action

[@Mike-qh5bn]

You are right, motivation is a major issue. I wish I had done what you are doing, getting an old boat and renovating it - everything is already designed, sized and made, a major factor is designing from scratch. You not only have to make everything but also decide how big , where and how it fits with the item next to it. I have been doing this for 5 years now on a 24 foot trawler yacht and just want the project to end.

[@davidmc8110]

It's a good thing you marked all those cobwebs with grinder dust so you could find them easy. I knew there had to be some reason for pressure building and leaking out the gearbox, it's the only thing that made sense from your description. Hope your friend is healing well from his burns.

[@markbrailsford4681]

Keep your chin up boats looking really great watch you every Sunday morning in uk love the show part of my Sunday’s now I don’t even own a boat but enjoy you podcasts

[@robgw]

You mentioned a new channel with ‘Land Rover’ restoration lol! If I get fat sitting on this sofa with all these new channels I’ll send for an XL Dangar Marine T-shirt!

[@MrHAPPYHAWAIIAN]

Sitting on Island of Kauai, this gem comes through. This is opposite of me cleaning out my car and bug bombing it today. Thank you for showing me things I thought not possible 😁👽
