I know I'm not the only one feeling very spoiled by these daily episodes. Very much appreciated!

[@fredericruiz-ramon9897]

Wow - impressive! If you were older I would say, "Pace yourselves!" But, I understand the pressure to move with all critical tings required to splash the boat. I'll keep watching and liking. Best of luck with the pace of the work.

[@Gwatson000]

Brilliant that you are doing this daily video! It is hard to wait a week for updates but now I can spend the day with you each morning over a cup of coffee.

[@simsjef]

Watching all work going on reminded me of a movie -“Fast and Furious”. Another incredible episode .

[@kevinmartin3859]

Nicely done again Ben well done team yaba😊😊

[@f.tavares89]

Congrats for being worried with his safety ben! honorable!

[@CaptIceman]

Except he was not! If he was, both would be using real safety glasses, instead of simple sunglasses that may protect your eyes from dust, but by no means would stop a fragment of a broken grind disc.

[@f.tavares89]

@@CaptIceman Mr OSHA here! have you ever seen any oakley tests?

[@rodneywroten2994]

[@jasonlockhart4647]

I'm loving these everyday episodes. I get to watch one every day on my work break

[@joebrown1382]

Great work Ben. It is so nice to have guys like Zeca who takes his work seriously & does a great job.

[@thecoinjar]

3 yrs, where has the time gone? Love the eclectic selection of your music. Who decides on the music?

[@SailingYaba]

Hi! Thank you! We are glad to know you enjoy it. It's mostly Ben who's DJ around here!

[@ianrusso8790]

amazing!!!!! this is awesome posting a new video everydat!!!

[@josephsichting8162]

Killer work. I know you will have a ton more work once you are in the water but please assure me that once it's dropped in, you will reset a few and have a party. If my social security gets worked out, maybe I could drop in for awhile and help out. I have worked as a mechanic, machinest, RV repair, low and high voltage RV and automobile repair tech, Bondo fiberglass repair tech, and so on and so forth. Oh yeah, and guitar tech/builder. I am wanting to get a boat of my own and learning to sail around sometime soon. I am unknowledgeable about dogs and customs so I am currently looking into that aspect of travel to South America because my dog Roscoe, at this point, does not have a choice but to travel with me. Great job and things are really coming together! Keep up the great work.

[@carlovanbaal1893]

Hoi Ben & M.P. Wij hier in het koude Nederland zijn Mega trots op jullie!! Wat een werk hebben jullie en het team al verzet.❤

[@majidalraissi9279]

Looking forward to see you on the water

[@Dragging79]

Really enjoying your journey. Thank you for sharing.

[@Maxdekriek]

Yes.... it's Yaba time once again..... loving it....😉😊💛

[@walterweigert9840]

Hi Ben and MP. This is just a modest contribution for your safety. Before "splash day" I think you must adress 2 items (besides all the rest you have on your list): A) modify the opening of those escape hatches you did a few episodes ago. If posible, make them open inbounds instead of outbounds as they do now: it´s more practical and safer to use. B) change the location of that steel plate in the engine room witch holds the propeller shaft to the back side of the beam, otherwise all the force produced by the engine-propeller gear will rely only on those 4 screws you used to place it. If you do so, all the energy will spread more evenly trough all the structure. As for the rest, I have only 1 word for what you had achieved in almost 3.5 years: ASTONISHING! I really hope you don´t take me wrong for my comment; I love you and all the project you have faced, even not knowing WHAT you were facing in the first place when you bought Yabá. As always cheers from NE Patagonia, Argentina. See you tomorrow.

[@chandrasutton4669]

Good job!!!😊🎉❤

[@cw3339]

You are making great progress!

[@douglasburch2320]

Be careful, us viewers are going to become accustomed to these everyday videos!! As always, thanks for taking us along on your journey.

[@markchodroff250]

Can’t believe your working so hard and have time to video, thanks you it’s fantastic! Love your boat and the both of you with your Super ambitious, family and friends !

[@SailingYaba]

Thank you very much!

[@PAINFOOL13]

[@JargonGigantus]

Mushroom on the stump, That's a catchy tune.

[@jamesvanian5524]

Really enjoyed this. Things are starting to move fast now. Yaba looks beautiful. Keep well and safe. James.

[@JoseRodrigues-th7im]

Loving this every day update, keep up the hard work 😅

[@jonathanworthing6278]

Can’t wait to see this in the water.

[@pangtjonresor]

Hi guys. You guys are doing a great job, it's so nice to get a new episode every day. Thank you to all of you. 👍🫶

[@SailingYaba]

Glad you enjoy it! Thank you!

[@fonhollohan2908]

Really enjoying episodes daily too bad you didn't think of this earlier I' would've been on board and watched all of them. Cheers.

[@henrinijkamp319]

Ben, it’s good to see you again in good spirit working on the keel of Yabá!

[@seanhanlon5867]

Youve done an amazing job on that boat, from rotting hulk to thing of beauty in 4? years..Well done Crew 👏👏👊

[@um_click21]

[@iSTAYuGO]

What is there not to like :) Remember that fridge in the hull ....

[@andrewcolquhoun4007]

Wash decks daily with seawater

[@ben8mag]

Hey! I think you’re building muscles. Looks like a boat isn’t the only thing you’re working on. lol!

[@phillipmetcalf9404]

Wow I have some catching up to do. Was sick and ended up in the hospital for several days. Too tired to watch you work. Home now recovering and starting to watch your videos. Excited to see all. Thanks for producing quality videos to watch as I rest and recover.

[@SailingYaba]

Get better soon!

[@Maxmax-y8m]

Suggestion : Installing a rope cutter on prop shaft and a sacrificial anode to protect it from stray current

[@Johnx961]

👍👍👍

[@kennethd.cooper5252]

Very exciting to see 👀. Be safe stay healthy bon voyage.

[@michaelraby7043]

This is about your fuel tanks and holding them in place. I know you have that wood up there but once you get those tanks in place and get them full of fuel, that wood is not gonna stop them from relieving the wall you have the metal working place next-door to you have them make up some sea bands to go in those grooves in your tank and make sure they have mounts for the back wall And the ceiling otherwise your starboard wall and your ceiling and then you can bolt them together like a clamshell to hold those tanks in place and then put the wooden beams on the outside. I hadn’t read anything through the comments about it but I’m sure you got more contacts than mine. Good luck. Ikeep up the good work.

[@Schaneification]

I am Still HERE !

[@janheywood]

You guys are working so hard keep it up am sure the list is finally getting shorter 😘

[@SailingYaba]

Thank you!

[@stvooplayhouse]

Love it ❤

[@MRREPTIL007]

se fue Morgan pero volvio Zeca 🤣

[@CrazyClick-my3ps]

😂😂🤭

[@jackrabbit5047]

These boats don't have much of a keel - must not go to windward very well. You could add leeboards for lateral resistance.

[@jackharper3190]

i agree, Not much keel but I doubt that they will so much sailing.

[@aib0160]

I can't help thinking it would have been a lot easier to have fitted the sacrificial keel at the same time as the keel?

[@_macrosky]

Great work, wow.

[@norbertocoronel8885]

O ZECA é um exemplo de força de trabalho e vitalidade que é admirável.

[@remyyamabushi1473]

C'est devenu une course contre la montre maintenant. Bon courage !

[@markhenry4178]

Enjoy the daily updates…hope you don’t work yourself to death!!!

[@ricardocarvalho838]

Hey there did you tink about copper sheathing below the water line. you will sail alot of warm water and the copper sheathing is a really nice barrier for the ship worms and other marine growth. Is quite an investement as well.........

[@Scablifter01]

Well done for making such progress and editing this episode. Keep going you will both be able to enjoy the hard work soon enough 😀

[@graemehossack7401]

In the future can you please use insulated tools around the battery terminals. A few layers of insulation tape will work if you can't get electrical tools. You don't want to short the batteries out with a spanner.

[@nasta67]

Para o alto e avanti marujos, vcs vão conseguir!!

[@seucanalfotos]

Bora pessoal, dia 2 concluído com sucesso, que episódio massa gente!!

[@johnmallette3143]

Plzz build another boat.,,.,.,,Tkzz for sharing.,.,peace

[@Sailingengineer74]

The sacrificial keel of hard wood is something thats sadly not adapted anymore, any fibreglassboat especially long keels would benefit from this, steel keels also. It acts like a bumper in a grounding, protecting the keel from direct hits, its really good when beaching the boat or just drying out in low tide. In some cases a stainless steel flatbar is fitted under the sacrificial keel, this steelbar would reach far up over the waterline at the stem.
