[@markbuskens6070]

I meant take screws out after the wood is removed.I’ve done 2 42ft and 1 36 ft trawler.Rain is your worst enemy for sure and the black is messy as it gets everywhere.You both work great together and I’m enjoying watching you ❤

[@sailingjoco]

Thanks mark ! We’re a pretty good team for most things , we’re lucky to have each other!

[@jonunya3128]

that rain must be so hard on you two getting a tough job done. always good to see one of your videos!

[@sailingjoco]

The rain definitely gives us mandatory breaks ! Hahaha But not the best when there’s holes in the deck. Nope not the best 😂

[@ronnieburdette141]

We look forward every week to seeing you new adventures!

[@sailingjoco]

Thanks Ronnie !! Appreciate your comment and you watching !

[@DanielTiffany-o8i]

Boat life, the dermal tool is so handy 👍. Take care, your videos are amazing!

[@sailingjoco]

Aw thank you so much for the compliment , it’s sooooo nice to see comments like this !! It makes us smile and keep pushin on to work hard!!

[@143tinaed]

I really enjoy your channel, I can appreciate your hard work. Good luck to both you.

[@sailingjoco]

Thank you so much ! We’re tryin lol. Learning as we go so some things take longer than others but we’re chippin away at em all !

[@kbbarton1]

Good thing you're there in the dry season... 😉 If you end up removing the teak seating in the cockpit, you could replace it with some Flexiteek or other faux teak planking that you glue down rather than screw down and it will look amazing!

[@sailingjoco]

Thank you for the suggestion! We def need to tear it out and replace it too. Omg what a huge job this is turning into! But the teak in the cockpit is cracking and breaking past repair so it’s time to do something about it. We’re even toying with the idea of slabs of nice plywood and staining it, sealing it etc for the seating? We’ve seen a few other HR’s do that and it’s something we can do ourselves too! About the floor tho hmmmmm

[@kbbarton1]

@@sailingjoco Well, one good thing about faux teak planking besides it looking like real teak but not needing any of the teak maintenance is that is also grippy like teak (or maybe better even). If you put down plywood and say varnish it, it will look amazing but will be slippy like ice when wet... no bueno.

[@sailingjoco]

This is a really good point that we never thought of before. Dang it now we have to do more research! Hahhaa :)

[@kbbarton1]

@@sailingjoco There's a Practical Sailor article where they do a long term test of different kinds of non-skid. The one that was the best overall was either Flexiteek or Plastiteek or something like that.

[@sailingjoco]

OoOOo you know we love a good test video, we’ll check it out thanks !

[@joshbaran2632]

You guys are animals!!! 🤙💪

[@sailingjoco]

Hahhaha we can be 😂😉🤪 Gettin Er Done !!!

[@kenmaragos5742]

And yes, I agree you should pull the chainplates. Just had mine replaced. Not cheap, but necessary.

[@sailingjoco]

Yeah we had ours replaced in the USA so they should be good. (We’ve pulled one since this episode and it’s all good👌👌)

[@rainfinger]

Great video! Jeff is Da Man.

[@sailingjoco]

Thanks much as always !! Workin shakin movin gettin things accomplished one day at a time! Next up: the boatyard 😳

[@nortonmolly]

Love your perseverance 👍👍

[@sailingjoco]

Thanks much ! It’s gonna be a looooong road to get this done but we’re gonna feel so great about it when it’s over!

[@lenamaysail]

Well Hell. I'm about to start this project on my HR-36 from 1993. And I'm solo 😢. But, it's gotta be done. Great job on the videos. - Kevin.

[@sailingjoco]

Hey Kevin , 💪💪 good luck to you! Where in the world are you getting the work done? It’s a huge undertaking for sure, but you’ll get there! Are you replacing with teak or nonskid?

[@lenamaysail]

@sailingjoco I'm going with with non-skid, the teak is just too damn hot. I'm in Malaysia after sailing here from Oregon. I'm looking forward to the rest of your teak deck odyssey. Cheers.

[@sailingjoco]

Malaysia ! Love it! It’s a goal to sail Joco to Southeast Asia, we really enjoy the countries, people and food over there👌 I’m sure you’d be able to find some reasonably priced workers to help you out!

[@kenmaragos5742]

Hey guys! Always watching. Proud of you for the deck job. I still need to replace my cockpit teak. I noticed your pressure cooker. It's very similar to mine. Where did you get it?

[@sailingjoco]

HEY KEN! We were just thinking about you! Such a huge job hey? Lol How are you doing? We also have to replace the cockpit teak , not entirely sure how we’ll go about that . Send Jeff a msg with your plans! We got our pressure cooker in Martinique, it’s a French made one, Seb is the brand I believe. You inspired us to get one ! I love using it

[@allynonderdonk7577]

Cool video, thanks for keeping me sane today. I've been digging for bodies using an excavator in Western North Carolina. I work during the day at Lowe's, and part of the night driving around river beds pulling people out. Aghhh...anyway the video sure lifted my spirits

[@sailingjoco]

Wow that's a tough job, So devastating what has happened over there :(thanks for the awesome compliment and glad we could lift your spirits!

[@svsalserenity4375]

You might want to pull those chain plates . Very susiptable to crevice corrsion , dont want to lose your rig .

[@sailingjoco]

Thanks for the tip! They’re new already so no problems there 👌👌👌

[@svsalserenity4375]

@@sailingjoco Smart sailors . 👍

[@sailingjoco]

Sometimes we do smart things 😂😂😂🤪

[@gpsteel4220]

Ok; add this question to the many that have asked, "how many leaks must there be in the house"? Uncommonly brave it was, to take this job on in the first place. But to do it without cover, was extra ambitious. Perhaps I just missed it, but what do you plan to replace the teak with? Please...not teak. Channel support comment complete🤐

[@sailingjoco]

Hahah hey and thanks for the comment! You might want to have a look at our q&a video we did recently which may answer a lot of your questions! But in short - we are going to kiwi grip :) replacing with teak is way out of our budget - like massively lol. Thanks for following along!

[@Cookingyo]

Curious... Are you charging your DeWalt batteries by an ac charger plugged into an inverter or a 12V DC cigarette lighter plug battery charger?

[@sailingjoco]

AC power plugged in to the boat which we run with a Victron inverter yup ! We recently learned that you can buy a knock off 12V dewalt charger too 👌

[@danknox9986]

@@sailingjoco I need one of those. Thanks.

Np!

Thanks for your comment ! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@Peter44667]

Not sure why you would want to tell someone to F...off If anyone was to complain about power tools at a quiet anchorage.

[@sailingjoco]

It was a joke silly ! You actually think we’d do that? No way

[@danknox9986]

I think they were joking. That you be very much out of character. That being said the quiet anchoring boats can sometimes overdo it. Maybe not the problem the noisy boats present but they can also be a pain.

[@sailingjoco]

Thnx Dan!
