Fixing a Tiny Speedboat - 1700 miles pt 15

[@smokeybarr]

The generosity of companies like this never ceases to amaze me. And they seem like a really nice bunch of lads to boot. Well played, Cockwells, well played.

[@PhilbyFavourites]

That’s not generosity, that’s one very astute MD and a great workforce. Did you watch the one where Raymarine upgraded all Harry’s electronics, must be over a year ago? They don’t do it because they are philanthropic. They do it to keep their name at the forefront of customers’ minds.

[@Liofa73]

@@PhilbyFavourites - Meh. Cockwell’s don’t need the publicity. They have a solid business. I think you’re being a little cynical. Raymarine are a worldwide company, so yeah they can afford it. But Cockwell’s didn’t have to put so much effort into it for free.

[@tomtarrell]

@@Liofa73very company needs publicity. Getting 100,000 or so people who are interested in boats to watch a video showing the craftsmanship and quality of your boat building business seems worth the few dozen hours of skilled work and the few hundred pounds on materials that this would have cost. It’s good business.

[@moaerdo1357]

It’s still generous stop being so cynical even if it is a publicity stunt it’s still a nice thing to do to help fix up a guys old boat

[@neilfurby555]

Crikey there are a few cynics lurking here!

[@redpalace2494]

Seeing Goodwin get a thorough and professional 21st-century refit made my Sunday. The craftsmen at Cockwell’s are clearly top-notch. Best episode yet

[@59patrickw]

You took the words off keyboard

[@tomfoxtrot9609]

So happy to see this episode! My favourite series on KZbin.

[@tbrowniscool]

It's an incredible series! Best thing ive seen in years

[@davezipman8959]

British craftsmanship at its best! A fine advert for what we Brits do well. Well done Cockwell's.

[@jonnowocky8179]

This really is one of the best and my most favourite series on KZbin. Equal parts nature, culture, engineering, adventure, bodging, education - great energy to the pace and editing - thank you so much ❤

[@simonv8279]

Echo that brilliant stuff Harry . And Cockwells rock !

[@maxflight777]

Jonno … nicely worded 👍🏻

[@waterjetting]

Awe Inspiring craftsmanship, there are clearly some very talented people working for Cockwells and its so good to see such a positive company, doing this great work! I have followed this journey from the beginning and always look forward to the next video, thank you all so much!

[@AMG63]

Harry you have made my Sunday morning with this upload, I absolutely love everything about this series. Thank you

[@cmanprogrock11]

These fix up episodes are just as entertaining as the journey itself. Top stuff!

[@seasider101]

The Cockwells staff are a cracking bunch of lads with exceptional skills and attention to detail. Looking forward to seeing you out on the water again. Take care out there

[@pvp64]

This guy should have a million subscribers, love the content and his sense of humor!

[@JCinematic]

Your continuation of this series makes me so happy. This is TV worthy content you are putting out there Harry. Keep up the great work, I am looking forward to more videos from this incredible series! ❤

[@twin40dave]

Wow , that's amazing to see Goodwin getting a new lease of life , and Cockwells, what a fantastic gesture to do the work for free in these present times , big up to all the guys that helped 👍

[@williambelcher8637]

I don't think I've ever a smile on my face for such a long time. Perfectly shot, annotated, edited and presented. The folks at Cockwells come across as a thoroughly decent bunch of guys who clearly love their craft and are so incredibly proud of it too. Can't wait for the next installment!

[@Hugo51079]

I put this video on, the moment I saw it. I had intended to do a bit of work while it played away in the background, but there is no chance. I am CAPTIVATED by this series. It doesn’t matter if it’s Renault Aventime servicing, or bouncing over the waves around the coast of wales, every single time an episode is posted I am enraptured. Love love love it…. Thank you !

[@TheCoBBus]

It just makes me SO SO HAPPY to see good people offering their resources, expertise, time and effort to help others! This was stunning to see how everyone were so kind and humble and just hard working! Goodwin is a lucky boat !

[@jonkwin9620]

The mention of Tally Ho in this video (another You Tube channel) made me want to see you take Leo as a co-pilot for a short leg of the journey later in the summer. If he is back in the UK this year, it would be great to see and I'm sure he would enjoy it and fit right in.

[@beingatliberty]

Andy & Cockwells have done an amazing job, helping you out. Wood encapsulated in plastic always sounds like a recipe for sous vide wood if water gets between the layers, presumably some boats are glassed entirely? No sandwich of materials? small jobs turn into bigger jobs, and electronics aplenty relative to the size of your boat, they’ve made a gem out of your boat, let’s hope it weren’t too crazy expensive all round, what a marvellous set of folks at cockwells.

[@dracovolans319]

I hope that somewhere there's a 80+ year old retired Avon employee that sees this video and feels a bit of pride in a well build craft.

[@343_GuiltySpark]

These videos are my happy place. The worst part of today is that we have to wait another 4 months or so for the next part. Love it, Harry!

[@Rufusdos]

Great stuff as always. Lovely advertisement for Cockwells. They seem like a very good-humoured and professional bunch.

[@ToddsReviews]

What a fantastic episode Harry, congratulations on all the upgrades and the gang at Cockwells certainly know their trade 😎 Please don't keep us waiting a few months for the next one 😊

[@Bladerunner264]

Having watched this video, I wish I had some dosh to spend with Cockwell. British workmanship at it's absolute finest. Not a corner cut in sight.

[@boijorzee]

It's always a joy to see craftsmanship like this. And seeing it aplied to the little speedboat that could makes it even more satisfying.

[@5gadget5]

What a fantastic update, hats off to the Cockell's team for their generosity, help and understanding in giving Goodwin a new lease of life. Bet you can't wait to get it back on the water for some sea trials before carrying on with your adventure. Can't wait for the next episode.

[@Yeahbuddylightweigh]

Amazing work by those craftsmen at Cockwells !!! Goodwin is a beast now !!

[@True__North]

I'm so happy with a new episode! We love your videos Harry!

[@ibz470]

I know this is an hour long advert for Cockwells, but what an advert. Amazing craftsmanship, and simply phenomenal attention to detail. What a company.

[@aukanmeister]

Wow, Goodwin is looking really smart now! Lovely job by the people of Cocwells. The electronics is getting a bit out of hand though😄 This made my Sunday morning, mate. Best channel on youtube in my opinion.

[@pprietojuez]

So much people on that tiny boat. This new chapter deserves a big screen, sofa, and a good whisky.

[@user-tc6xg5ze2u]

Thank you for today's youtube upload Harry. Cockwells leverage: what a treat ! Amazing "little not so little" project. To everyone involved 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 How amazing to make all of this happen. It's a bit of a more hopeful world after watching your episode today ☀️🌊

[@andrewdancer8520]

What a superb job by the Cockwell’s team across the whole of company for Harry’s very deserving project 🎉

[@daleskidmore1685]

What a fantastic offer from Cockwells? Goodwin rides again! I always say: Good things happen to good people. You'll have to go round twice now Harry.....

[@tangerinealarm]

The attention to detail that Goodwin got, and the workmanship is amazing to see. It was great to see how despite all the adventures thus far Goodwin is still holding up really well.

[@TheDobby11]

It is so good to see competent people doing such great work. And enjoying their work.

[@richardyorke9055]

What a bunch of superstars Cockwells are

[@acey4994]

So happy to see her get an upgrade.

[@westybeastfella]

Holy sh*t Harry talk about winning the lottery. Cockwells rebuilding Goodwin gratis? You must be pinching yourself. Well done fella. You've earned it.

[@11browd]

Best series hands down on KZbin. Harry you are a legend 🚤

[@Wyntar]

Thanks!

[@harrydwyer]

A very big thank you! Going in to the wine fund.

[@MrMk1mexico]

Perfect way to spend a Sunday evening. Goodwin will be better than new when finished.

[@andrewclarke1077]

Just an amazing example of superb craftsmanship and beautifully portrayed Harry! ❤

[@TheDarrenJones]

Always a great day when there's a new episode. So great to see such craftsmanship is still alive and well, and a company that has been so generous to help out with Goodwin. Looking forward to the end of the refit!

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

Great Video Harry, I’m always interested to see how different boat builders operate. Really enjoyed it. Looking forward to the next part. 😎👍

[@harrydwyer]

Thanks capitan.

[@townsville69]

Watching pro boat builders is always a treat. Cockwells seems like a great bunch of people.

[@sophia_petrillo]

There is no more automatic watch than when one of these glorious videos shows up in the feed.

[@stigz3570]

Missed you, Goodwin and the team! Can’t wait for the adventure to continue ❤

[@TheLoxxxton]

Wonderfull to have gotten a real prestigious boat company to do it for free! Sweet!!😊 Goodwin will be set for the next 40 years

[@mowler8042]

I really missed this show and I'm always so amazed how beautiful your trips are. WOW seeing the buffing polishing result is so nice. The boat with the two diesel motors is now on my list of what I will buy if I win the lottery.

[@purehillmanimp]

I don’t think a word has been written to describe the excellence of the work they’ve carried out in this video. Such a fine end product across the board from their workshops!

[@cunrah]

Cockwells as a company, make me happy for the UK industry as a whole. They're pioneers, and seeing Dave Cockwell still hands on with the construction side of the business is amazing! Honestly hats off to the guys, and to help you out for free! Truly amazing. Keep up the amazing work guys! Great video Harry! Loved it!

[@davidlayland8819]

Amazing film! Best series on KZbin, can’t wait for the next one!! Goodwin is looking fantastic, give Andy a passenger ride around the UK!

[@lozl]

Harry, what a fantastic episode. You've made such amazing connections. It's awesome seeing such quality work being done to the old boatm really satisfying. Cannot wait for the next episode. I am itching to know how the boat goes and how it feels

[@Deckzwabber]

Cockwells' customers must be really proud to have contributed to Goodwin and it's epic journey. I know I would be.

[@neilgosling5833]

I absolutely love that this plucky little boat that has no business having this amount of time and money thrown at it is being refinished to such a high standard! Top job by fantastic people, well done.

[@martintattersall2528]

Great to see another episode in the Goodwin saga, thanks for sharing your story. I genuinely don’t think an Avon Sea Rider ever looked this good even from new!

[@harrydwyer]

It is incredibly shiny. You could eat a pork pie off it.

[@kiwiwifi]

She’s getting some work. You deserve the royal treatment so I’m glad they rolled out the red carpet to you

[@DavidParker]

So good to see both yourself and Goodwin getting the love and respect you both deserve!

[@gs425]

So excited to see a new upload Harry !!!! Looking forward to watching on big screen later !!!

[@paulnabbs9112]

Well done Harry, I have a peek most weekends just hoping there's an update on your tour and this has made my day. Cockwell's are amazing craftsmen and Goodwin looks amazing

[@Austin4098]

Was thinking about you only last night and wondering how soon you'd be taking to the waters again. Glad you see you managed to get some pros in to fix-up Goodwin. Proper Job !! Good luck this year and be safe !!

[@harrydwyer]

Yes, a very big thank you to Cockwells for putting all the expertise and hours in. Goodwin should hopefully go on for another 45 years.

[@willmv4139]

Harry, such a pleasure to watch your episodes. Love the humour and how you show off Cockwells trades and craftmenship.

[@YorkshireDavid]

Love this series, it's always a treat when your video drops. Been watching since the foam mining. Can't wait for more summer boating action. Thanks Harry, keep up the good work and thanks to your sponsors.

[@dougintothesunset]

What an amazing upgrade . . . I look forward to seeing her re-launched. Thanks for sharing!

[@TheCabrooster11]

Harry it’s wonderful that the generosity of a top line boat builder has made it possible for you to completely renovate Goodwin but then it’s not everyday that someone endeavours to circumnavigate Britain in a very small vintage speedboat, so I think it’s well deserved. Can’t wait for the next episode and hopefully sea trial.

[@NigelMarston]

One of my absolutely favourite series on any TV media. Cockwells are an amazing group of people - demonstrated their fantastic capabilities and experience.

[@colinunderdown1758]

There's some good people out there. A good result for you and safe onward journey.

[@jdenmark1287]

What a wonderful crew of boatbuilders

[@rpmf40]

What a treat to see all the different skilled workers applying their expertise and know how to this little rubber boat. Brilliant video and bravo to Cockwells for offering their services.

[@SW-qr8qe]

Harry’s videos always make me happy. I’ve never been into boats but I have become an enthusiastic follower of his adventures. He does seem to meet some lovely people.

[@RestoreIt]

I hope to own a company as cool as Cockwells some day. What legends. Cheers Harry, another great episode.

[@SailingYachtZora]

I remember when the light boat video came out originally, and saw Goodwin on the crane at the side. So nice to see hwe being taken care of, and being brought up to new spec. Need to get her up to the Arctic!

[@lesroberts2244]

Now that's entertainment. Thank you thank you.

[@gynat5968]

Was surprised when he said "vinyl ester" instead of poly. Enjoyed watching the Cockwell's crew ply their trade and professionalism. It has been my experience that no matter where in the world a waterman may find himself if he is among other watermen he is home. A pleasure to see these watermen in action.

[@GregRedHastings]

YES, Glad you are back! gonna get my coffee and settle in for this episode! Woo Hoooo

[@DavidNTS]

I hope someone who is watching your series see’s this episode and if they are looking for a boat and have a healthy bank balance… they choose Goodwin’s. We all salute them. Can’t wait for the next episodes…

[@malfunction8165]

The Cockwells Heroes, such amazing generosity. I don't know what I'd do without a dose of Goodwin to help me on my way.

[@med-3000]

What a great company Cockwell are, brilliant people and dream boats. Goodwin looks the seal’s flippers, tactical and built for purpose, incredible workmanship. Never though I’d sit through 45 mins of a tiny boat rebuild.

[@justjoe7313]

Such a warm feeling from everybody involved! A perfect end to my day. Can't thank you enough for letting us see that, a big hat's off to team at Cockwells!

[@tubeyrobin]

Harry the dream continues for us all. A huge shout out to Cockwells the craftsmanship and dedication is impressive.

[@magnuslundin682]

So happy to see Goodwin getting that sort of treatment. This is perhaps the only series on youtube that makes me smile through a whole episode. =)

[@simondavid5701]

I live for these episodes so thank you Harry for cheering me up on this grey cold day. Boating days are hopefully just round the corner for all of us!

[@adamkarcz8644]

Goodwin has never looked better. This adventure just makes me so happy.

[@jamie3731]

Good to see you back Harry, I have been looking forward to the adventure continuing, by far the best thing on KZbin and the happy Goodwin soundtrack to accompany. What a great group of guys at Cockwells too, such talent and so nice with it. Well done to them stepping up to help too.

[@ljd8520]

Harry, this was an absolute joy to watch. Thank you sir.

[@NerdInMotion23]

So awesome Coxwells stepping up like that. I have thoroughly enjoyed this series. As someone who grew up by the sea but is now a 100 mile inland I miss the coastal life deeply and this has brought me a lot of enjoyment. So thanks for keeping Goodwin alive ❤.

[@paulbeeson2920]

Love this series of videos Harry. Can’t wait to see Goodwin back on the water.

[@BoostedMike2]

love it when you upload, and what a job cockwells done and free of charge basically a full restoration free of charge. you lucky man harry you must be over the moon

[@soggybottom3463]

Cockwells - superb. You can see the standard of their work, because they can't help but do the same for Goodwin. Daaaaaaammmn. Never seen anything like it. Well done guys. 👍👏👏👏.

[@nickalexander3324]

Another masterpiece Harry. Your humble enthusiasm is an inspiration. Many congratulations.

[@careyroberts3924]

I dread to think how much all that astonishingly high quality work would cost if you had to pay for it! Hats off to Cockwells for their generosity......

[@ceannscriteach81]

Whole series is brilliant but this one stands out, fair dues to Cockwells, their workmanship seems looks outstanding. Best of luck with the renovations.

[@moonshine3333]

I was just about to go out … 50 minutes later 😀😀. Great job Cockwells👍

[@andrewgardner9615]

Welcome back-Start of the boating season.

[@DKofDAH]

Andy looks like a very nice bloke. And all his fellow craftsman are doing a phenomenal job. I’m really blown away by the support this projects get‘s from all these different companies. Makes me want to visit this nice island up north once more.

[@TR4zest]

Big hand for Cockwells. Goodwin Resurrected! Let the fun begin (again).

[@hyd119]

Thank you Cockwells for the superb fitting. Thank you for believing in Harry and Goodwin. Cheers from 🇺🇸

[@Gruntfuttock]

Wow congrats on the refit! I dread to think how much that would have cost at a top level builders like Cockwells!

[@jmonsted]

What a place. It's great to see master craftsmen getting their hands on the rather humble Goodwin :)

[@manuelvanderslikke680]

Hi Harry, And thank you for this great show of the refit of your Goodwin and yes we Dutch people love that orange color 😉of the hull looks great now I can hardly wait on the next episode of this refit

[@andrewronniedoc]

At first I was watching and wondering how these companies justify the time and expenditure to help Harry but having watched these chaps work, I can totally see that its simply a fantastic advert for their expertise and professionalism. What a great bunch of fellas.
