Getting Things Done on my Boat - Vintage Steel Yacht REFIT

[@alexvanherwijnen5343]

If i can give you one advise. Please open the hole you closed in the bottom of your fuel tank and make a drain of it. It may happen that condensate (water) wil form in your tank. With this drain at the bottom of your tank, you can drain the condensate. This will prevent water being sucked into the engine, which will cause further issues.

[@lutomson3496]

I agree he just made the problem worse with no drain

[@herpderp264]

My biggest issues is he's going to have one HELL of a time priming that fuel system.

Sir, thank you for your excellent content, and greetings from Dallas, Texas.

[@mundanestuff]

well done, the quality of the story telling, film making and workmanship all top notch

[@SpicyBloodBean]

JB weld always falls apart in fuel. I highly recommend just using a piece of rubber fuel line and a hose clamp for your pickup extension

[@ProjektBeluga]

Nice Work, Nice Content! Thanks

[@graemelliott3942]

You may already know this but if one replaces engine mounts on a boat engine you have to perform a very detailed alignment process on the propeller shaft where it couples to the transmission so there won’t be stress on the prop shaft where it passes through the cutlass bearing and shaft log caused by a very very slight misalignment of the shaft! The adjustments are done on the new engine mounts and use a feeler gauge on the coupler!

[@KBOSGroundAgent]

Yup. That was my job at Sea Ray.

[@lasermodeler]

This is the way ALL "how-to" videos should be made. Everything is excellent - Narration,, photography, information supplied. Well done!

[@bobt3374]

Amazing how well the tank came up A + for the effort you put into maintaining your boat. Take care.

[@johncollier608]

For some reason I cannot explain, I take great pleasure from seeing a beautiful clean tank. Be that deisel or water, it doesn't matter. Great job, Sir. I have watched you from the start and I love your channel. Thanks for sharing. From the UK.

[@gordonreeder9045]

Enjoyed this session. You might want to consider making arrangements for extra filtering of the fuel. Diesel love and need clean fuel. Installing a small fuel pump and extra filters that can be used when it is not in operation might be considered. This would be a process of "polishing the fuel". Love your work.

[@heavyduty2280]

Whistles** now that's a clean diesel tank! luv it

[@alexjinks6172]

and ...Sir, thank you for your excellent content, and greetings from Victoria, Australia

I really enjoy watching your videos and learning a few things. Take care and enjoy your day. Brett from Clayton, North Carolina, USA

[@CNArea51]

All of your videos are great. Relaxing, entertaining and fun to watch.. Thank You and have a nice day

[@johnmontague4245]

Greetings from Scotland. I’ve been watching since episode 1, and have enjoyed every video that you have posted. Your work, and attention to detail is excellent, and you have made an astounding change ( improvement ) to the boat. It’s a pleasure to watch you working on the boat, and the quality of your videos, and choice of music is wonderful. Thanks for sharing, & keep up the great work.

[@runt262]

Just made it as far as the intro. Loving the story telling. Now, back to the rest of the video

[@mmanut]

BEAUTIFUL JOB ‼️ ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL JOB ‼️ 👍 👍 Vinny 🇺🇸

[@garybroom8418]

This is like therapy... and relax.

[@UbuntuBirdyMovies]

Your intro is awesome! Man, that's a piece of art!!!

[@looyosummers5796]

Your cleaned out fuel tank is a beauty.🤩

[@kanartech]

Thanks for the update, and also the weather is great now

[@woodenu2]

Don't forget to install the plug in the bottom of the tank. Great job!!

[@robertbartram5632]

great relaxed watching, looking forward to the next one

[@brandondurkin6851]

I've missed your videos glad to see you back hopefully.

[@dickdegraaff5452]

Hello my German friend, You always surprise me with the craftsmanship of your work. You really know how to refit old items including a complete boat. The most amazing for me is that you do it all alone. I therefore have a lot of respect for your skills. Wish you lots of success with the rest of the refit and send you love from the Netherlands

[@patrickjernigan1025]

Glad you got all those medal shavings out before painting it with sealer good job bro

[@sstorholm]

Very good work as always! A couple of things regarding the AC stuff, the outlets really need to go into back boxes, and the MCBs really need an enclosure as well. The idea is that any copper is either in a box, or covered by two layers of insulation. The boxes also provide strain relief in case something tugs on a cable. Wiska makes really good junction boxes in case you need to splice or junction a wire.

[@hennie338]

Bedankt voor een mooie video, echt leerzaam

[@jabbasan12]

Great content Sir! And hello from Dallas, Texas.

[@MB_Kathrina]

One day, when I eventually finished my boat and being on travel with it, getting also to Berlin (which quite surely is in plan!), I will make a round into Lake Rummelsburg for some greets to you. Beside: It's a nice place! Thank you very much at this time, for those wonderful vids about this amazing project of yours! I could learn a lot from it for my project, and I appreciate it very high. 👍

[@crustycobs2669]

That's a beauty. Greetings from Portugal

[@donnakawana]

Your boat is looking wonderful.. I really enjoy your episodes an look forward to you motoring away to enjoy your vessel.. Your an amazing craftsman... Thanks for sharing your life with us!!! ✌🏼💗😊❣️

[@TheJohnbrowne101]

Good to see you back 👍👍

[@Nerd3927]

Lots of respect for the work on the diesel tank. I did it on my previous boat and it really sucks. Well done!

[@iainphilip8818]

Glad to see you back

[@michelfortier9563]

I'm always impressed to your attention to the details. When finished, the boat should be absolutely beautiful and well put together and greetings from Houston, TX.

watching from South Korea

[@Naplesfrank154]

Greetings from South Florida. Your videos may be short but they sure are great. You do wonderful work.

[@paulnienhuis8169]

Very nice video, as always! 👍👏❤ from Holland.

[@justinwienand9351]

Glad you're back at it..

[@robvalley3612]

I spoke too soon my friend. You do an excellent work! 😊

[@hawkdsl]

I maintain that the electrical work your doing on this boat is the single most impressive aspect of this project.

[@stuartbromley5328]

Looking good ......its coming along very nicely......one tip put rubber pads under the engine mounts ....it will help vibration even more ive got them on my narrow boat makes a great difference in vibration and any noise as well

[@switchedon6530]

Another top job buddy, finishing touches really do make a difference. That's gonna be a nice live aboard 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@gabrielmarshman2819]

I love the Use of Hans Zimmers' Interstellar soundtrack. You have wonderful tase.

[@jeanhawken4482]

This reminds of the you tuber “sailing Athena”. Both really clever people able to pt their hand at anything.

[@Ratty_Rex]

Loved the intro. Great update and more progress. 😀

[@christyler5722]

Wow man, you are a designer and an electrician and technician and a plumber and a builder and cabinet maker, well done. Everything done perfect.

[@jimlane6717]

Great work. Boat is turning out to be something really special.

[@GerhardMack]

If you are putting appliances on the counter, you need to find a way to secure them. Otherwise, first storm and they are sliding off. You could break the appliances or worse yet, they could fall on someone. I've been on more than a boat for a few storms so that lesson sticks with me.

[@Sanyey]

Got your self a new subscriber! Great content and editing right there! Greetings from Hungary!

Hi Ber Lin, Great videos your putting out and look forward to the next one. The Deisel Tank looks Awesome.

[@1959canoe]

J-B Weld Awesome product,, I once used it to fix 8'' tear in my aluminum boat,, it still holding strong 10 yrs & counting.. from Canada,, Your boat rebuild is Very entertaining,, thanks....

[@lazyplumber1616]

I really want a coffee and a hot pocket right now.

[@Iam-mad]

Deine Küchenplatte ist sehr schön geworden! Schade, daß wir das nicht mitverfolgen konnten, aber ich denke Du brauchst auch mal eine Pause ;) Der Grund warum der Dieseltank am Boden den Ausgang hatte, ist damit Schwerkraft zur Versorgung reicht. Mit der Dieselentnahme oben brauchst Du jetzt eine Pumpe, die wieder ein zusätzliches Glied in der Kette ist, daß man kontrollieren muss, und das ausfallen kann. (Auch einen Wasserabscheider für den Tank am Bodenausgang sollte man haben) An Deiner Stelle würde ich mir eine kleine Dieselhiezung von Kabola mit Wasser gespeißten Heizkörpern installieren, weil Zugluft durch Heizung empfindliche Menschen gerne gesundheitlich tangiert, und die trockene Luft auf Dauer auch sehr belastend sein kann, wenn man permanent am Boot lebt. Alles Gute und viel Glück mit Deinem Projekt!

[@TheMadSqu]

Schön, dass es wieder ein Update gibt! Weiterhin alles Gute. Ich freue mich schon auf das nächste Video.

[@martin5504]

Interesting, thanks. Well done for dealing with the tank and the "little troublemaker."

[@Dw-et7dw]

Oh man to my surprise you had done a new video. Wow what a great job on the tank. So satisfying. I love your boat. One day I hope to go to your beautiful country and float down some of your beautiful water ways. Please keep make your videos they are fantastic.

[@crustycurmudgeon2182]

Been wondering where you been! That fuel tank looked like some major work, so, more than a few days... Love the coffee press. You're getting REALLY good at your editing-- keep up the good work!

[@darkofchaos_official]

We need more videos!

[@louiemahgnem468]

G'day, love ya vids, great commentary also. I enjoy watching form Qld Australia

[@markbailey6051]

Nice, thank you.

[@jackieross3831]

Looks awesome!

[@denniscarreno8151]

Good to see you living in the boat! A lot of blood sweat and tears 😢

[@ItsFriscoBaby]

I'm sure about a thousand people commented that the bottom connector on the tank was threaded. You've blanked a perfectly good tank outlet and replaced it with a worse one

[@rickeyman2215]

I like your videos very much.

[@robertszyszynski7959]

wonderful job .

[@gunn3r245]

Quality of the videos is getting better and better! Der Inhalt diesmal war auch sehr interessant, bin gespannt wie es weiter geht!

Great craftsmanship in getting your fuel tank cleaned and resealed. Looking forward to the engine mounting repairs and I know they will be first rate also.

good looking job

[@jos706]

like always top job 👍😎

Great to see you making videos again. Such good projects to have completed ✅ Regards from Hong Kong 🇭🇰

[@craddocraddoc]

Zum reinigen des Tanks: Es gibt supergünstig Bürstenaufsätze für Akkuschrauber oder Bohrmaschine. Die kann ich nur empfehlen für so arbeiten. Klingt doof, aber ich nutze die Dinger inzwischen überall. Bad putzen, Spritzschutz der Küche putzen, Teppich reinigen. Das macht das "Schrubben" von Flächen umgefähr um den Faktor 100 leichter!

[@chasein7019]

I have no idea why I watched this video. I could care less about a boat restoration but I watched the whole thing and found it interesting.

[@windmillproductions4061]

Fantastic job, you must be pleased with the results

[@jondavidmcnabb]

Wow incredible work on that fuel tank!!! Seriously, most people would have given up upon inspection. Great perseverance and nice video.

[@LordOfTamarac]

Love it man, in the future you could use a crimp style wire ferrule to use the stranded in solid wire electrical connectors.

[@bobrat]

Wow awesome job on the diesel fuel tank!!!🏆

[@torrespearls381]

You're doing a great job mate. quite enjoyable viewing.

[@porterscott8360]

Nice job. The tank outcome was amazing.

[@markdallman900]

Great job you are doing. One suggestion I have is to have some way to draw out of the bottom of the tank below t

[@markdallman900]

Oops let me finish. .......below the suction pipe so you can remove any water from the tank. Maybe a threaded plug on top of the tank that you could remove, and insert a tube to suction any water that may be in the tank. When I was an engineer on tugboats the fuel tanks had bottom drains to remove water from the fuel tank. There is a paste called “kolor kut “ that is brown but when it touches water it turns red. Put some on a stick and insert it through the top access to the bottom of tank. Pull it out and if it’s still brown then no water. If you find water stick a small tube down and suck it out.

[@iwishiknew10]

yeeeeeeezzzzzzzz, been wafting for a new epi

[@agw5425]

Good for you that you got rid of that dangerous old fuel line, well done.
