I think you should consider adopting me. I love being on the ocean, I’d be a great older brother to Lenny and Darwin, I’m willing to take watch, and given that I’m in my mid-40’s I won’t require much. Please let me know how great of a idea you think this is dare I call you mom and dad!?!?

Any idea of the ETA?

[@mcgirtICreality]

I for one want to see how they properly heal the transom and the glass weight and schedule as well as the material used (type of wood/foam core/remboard...ect). I'd also like to know if they are using a skim coat of cab-o-sil or if they are using the proper 3 coat soak wet roll out. Either one is good and I tend to take the short cut anyway. Thanks

[@sadler451]

"This stage has been my favorite." My two sons are 20 months apart. At every stage I said the same, "this stage has been my favorite" and then it got even better. The boys are now in their late 20s, and this stage is my favorite. I have loved every stage.

I’m so so happy to hear this 🥲🥲

[@steveburlace4518]

I've spent 10 years building super yachts in Italy and I can't tell you how inspiring for the workers it will be to have you two there helping on the build ✌️, not only will it raise their morals it'll ensure you get the best build possible. I'm so happy to see how happy Riley is at this moment. All the best guys, so many adventures to look forward to.

[@MedicTopher]

Agreed, they’ll see your investment into the build and increases their buy in and investment as the builders. It shows the love and care from both ends

[@jackblah5842]

This is fantastic behind the scenes coverage of the build that highlights the craftsmanship of these fine workers, but do you honestly thing Riley jumping in the "help" inspires them? I've built homes and boats and I think the last thing I would want is the owners 'helping out'. For me every time they were in there helping to me it just felt unnatural. Showing interest and documenting makes for better content IMHO.

[@steveburlace4518]

@Jack Blah yeah 100% it'll inspire them. You spend all your time building these magnificent vessels and wonder where they will go and if or how much the owners will appreciate the work you put in. Just knowing they will be able to follow the adventures of this boat and see where she goes is inspiring for someone putting the work in every day, and it's lots of work! We had an owner do a similar thing with us once, and he wasn't nearly as happy as Riley, but it brought us immense joy even though he didn't have a clue what he was doing 🤣. But above all that it'll give Riley an intimate knowledge of his boat, a level of intelligence that you can't purchase with a finished boat that will help him immensely in the future.

[@jackblah5842]

@@steveburlace4518 Thanks for your thoughtful response. Being able to follow your work via their KZbin channel is immeasurable, and I am now understanding your point about working alongside the owners, that there may be some camaraderie there. I think where we differ is I believe this could be achieved without actually trying to do the work but I get your point. Nick from Ruby Rose is doing an amazing job of documenting the build of their Seawind and has gone so far as to learn to speak Vietnamese. I can't wait to see both vessels on the water.

That slowmo of Lenny and Darwin diving off the couch was great! Would love to see an overview of the layout of everything and hear thoughts about the organization/utilization of the various spaces onboard (storage, equipment, etc.). For example, how you mentioned that you switched the wide part of the bulkhead to accommodate more seating around the table in the saloon. I love knowing all those little details and thoughts that went into making your space unique to you. Also all the electronics and drivetrain!

[@nakamakai5553]

Underscore for the exterior finish, especially waterline and below - Many hours in sailing and cruising family videos are devoted to dealing with bottom fouling - How will your new 3-H be different or better? What surprises do you have for us?

[@kevingrimbeek2106]

Can anyone tell me how tight the fit is when sliding the pontoons into the main body aka hull of the yacht?! Just curious? 🤔

[@iverburl]

@Kevin Grimbeek Tight enough that they had to drill holes inside to let air escape when the akas were inserted. As the inserts appear slightly wedge-shaped and the amas were pulled in with truck-size ratchet straps, I suspect the surfaces bonded as completely as any vaccuum-bagged layers.

[@poeticposturing3850]

I'm curious about sleeping quarters and the layout of the galley and the hang out places on deck. It's so striking to see two people so excited about something so deeply adventurous. Very inspiring!

Since I am not a sailor, I am most interested in Elayna's part--the finishes and interior design. Can't wait to see that! Boys are SO grown up these days! 🙂

[@sharoncochran8508]

I completely understand Riley's sensory overload. A visit to my local grocery store gives me anxiety if its super crowded. Love seeing Lenny and Darwin running, jumping and playing. They are really beautiful little boys!

[@Dachdogoriginal]

Yes, in some of the same kind of markets like that, I have felt very claustrophobic. And everyone is calling you like you're a walking dollar sign. Which is totally understandable. It is just quite different than we are used to.

[@daveamies5031]

@@Dachdogoriginal At least that market had nice wide isles and looked quite empty, compared to some of the markets my wife dragged me through in Jakarta.

I still work offshore (long time now), as Riley did and thought it was so funny how he used a screwdriver to open a box. (8.42). He may have told you but ask him how drill crew would do this - I bet it involves a giant hammer. Smiley face. Leggy.

The cartoon at the beginning with the tombstone saying the inventor of epoxy couldn't stick around forever was hilarious.

The cardboard anchor is next level innovation that no-one else is doing, imagine the weight saving, especially when coupled to a 12mm poly chain, maintenance free, and you don’t need such powerful capstan either which reduces your DC power consumption. It’s a no brainer, literally 👍

Just a thought regarding the dingy. Why not design a sick carbon fibre cradle. That way it could be easily re sculptured to suit a change of dingy rather than having to alter the boat away from original design. As i say just a thought.

For your dinging, I would use dinghy chokes on the stern there. That way you don’t have to cut into your hall to change anything and it makes it easier to place your dinner there and also if your dinghy would ever get stolen and you had to get a new thing for your boat you don’t have to worry about it fitting your whole exactly, you can always redo the dinghy chocks if you had to it would be a whole lot easier

[@theminsterlad]

@@AmyB369 nope, it's Jackfruit. They look similar. And Jackfruit can have an unpleasant odour too.

[@theminsterlad]

@@AmyB369 Both jackfruit and durian are thorny in appearance. They are both pungent in smell but have some distinct differences. Jackfruit has more bumps rather than thorns, making it possible to pick up jackfruit. The inside of it is interlaced with slimy fibers making it difficult to break down the fruit. Jackfruit is described as smelling like bubble gum, pineapple, banana, and rotten onions. And because of that last smell, it is sometimes banned in public places. Jackfruit averages about 2 feet long and can weigh up to 40 pounds.

About the trimaran - I'd love a bow to stern, port to starboard walk around of SLV3 as well as an inside walk around to show what it's like before all the finishers are in.

People were complaining about this in the comment section of their last video as well. I think we shouldn’t be too quick to judge or criticize this high quality team and factory that have gone above and beyond to be accommodating. I started paying attention more closely, while watching after seeing comments like this, and if you’ll notice all of the massive bay doors at the end of the factory are wide open while they are in there working and filming. I do not think this is an enclosed space without ventilation and airflow from those massive bay doors. Working construction with my dad growing up, if we had doors like that open I’m sure my dad wouldn’t even have been wearing any mask at all lol the masks they are wearing and provided, coupled with the through ventilation, seems more than sufficient!

Riley, I'm 61 and still sneak swigs of milk from the carton. I just do it at 3am so I don't get caught. It is too bad you are so busy with the boat. In western Vietnam they found a giant cave you can hike thru. It's so big it has it's own weather system with clouds inside. I can't remember but I think it might be the worlds largest cavern. Ask around. Y'all have a good time.
