Great video guys! A really nice scenic change for the both of you having a quick holiday from Yaba. Have fun and stay safe you guys!

[@manolisgledsodakis873]

@@SailingYaba Not exactly conduit but self-amalgamating tape is highly UV resistant. It's not adhesive but as you peel off the backing and stretch it to twice its length (approx) it bonds to itself as you wind it around the cables. Overlap it about 50% as you go. Takes a bit of practice but easy once you get the hang of it. I used it on the outdoor cables for my airconditioning. It's on a flat roof in bright mediterranean sunshine all day long and it's still good six years later. Start by cutting a nick in the very end of the tape and stretch it a little into a "V". You should then be able to peel the plastic tape backing free.

[@peterlee2622]

Just a small point - white cable zip ties will degrade over time when exposed to UV from the Sun. The black ones are usually UV resistant.

When Ben said "welcome to Scottish summers", all I could think of was that line from Braveheart when he wanted to take the girl for a ride and it was raining "Oh, it's good Scottish weather, madam. The rain is falling straight down. Well, slightly to the side like."

[@davidshafer1872]

SWEEPERS SWEEPERS, MAN YOUR BROOMS! Give the ship a good sweep down both fore and aft. Sweep down all lower decks, ladder wells and passage ways. Now sweepers.

U've got more than Columbus hAd & look what he discovered...SOooo Time To Go Sailing!!!

[@steventrostle1825]

@4:27 Real Life Fun sailing a small boat-happens a LOT!

[@ddevil4980]

Mp did not look like she enjoyed that freezing Scotland weather! 😂 But she obviously enjoyed seeing Ben have fun!

Sim foram 3 anos e meio de espera para navegar.Foi muito trabalho.Mas e muito importante ter tudo em ordem.Para piderem navegar e não ter problemas em alto mar.Voces merecem tudo de bom.Deus abençoe a jornada dacfamilia.⛵⚓⛵⚓⛵⚓🐶🐶

[@citizen127at]

Such beautiful "problems" 😄❤

[@ThaJay]

Optimistically diving into a new adventure head first without looking too far ahead? Does not sound like Ben and MP at all!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@robertmarquis3529]

I have been with you guys from the beginning and I’ve seen how much work you’ve done its very nice to see you on vacation congratulations and I hope you post videos for a long time

[@WallStreetPanda]

04:56 My lovelly Scotland! I used to live in Edinburgh! Man I miss it

[@JohnLeigh-g4m]

Ben /mp,i cannot believe that your just round the corner from where I live 🥲wow 👍,⛵⛵

[@levt7651]

Don't worry, guys! Whether you're still at that anchor or not, it doesn't matter. What matters is that you set sail when YOU feel ready to. Also, you're clearly excited to get moving, so just make sure you're safe enough to do it. When it's time, you'll do it and we'll cheer you on 😊!

[@oldowl33]

Not sealing the wood at those drill holes at the peak is asking for rot troubles. It would worry the hell out of me…. just saying.

[@Pocketfarmer1]

A good entry in the what is catastrophically wrong with this episode game. There is something truly wrong in every episode, except when MP rebuilds the engine with the mechanic’s oversight .

[@jeffmoore8727]

We all saw what happens!

[@FubarKen]

Even better over drill and fill with epoxy and then drill.

[@jsEMCsquared]

They used sikaflex before , during, chalking the planks for the hull.. Sikaflex!

[@Rasputin-p4e]

Curly haireds according to science and old fashioned quacks are hard to reason with😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@rende2851]

The dingy sailing looked fun and maybe it was just me but was that jib upside down? Seems like you want the panals perpendicular to the forestay and along the lines of load.

[@tiborkiss9186]

HAha... I sailed in Lazer boat in slightly less windy conditions and capsized a ton of times.. When they went to the water I thought... if they did not capsize now, than they know something I don't..:)

[@christianlibertarian5488]

We sail an 18ft catamaran on Lake Superior. We thought we were hearty souls, but we got nothin’ on the Scots who will sail in that. PS, no take-backs on Pinky Swear.

[@spaceace9680]

SAILING YABA DABA DUOO 😛

[@harolddomangue9206]

Ben here is 3 types of conduits: Marine-Grade PVC Conduit, Stainless Steel Conduit or Flexible Marine-Grade Conduit. and it depends on where you intend on attaching the conduit to and what you intend to use to attach the conduit with.

[@SV-Accelerate]

Sorry, but did I see good you hoist the fourth sail upside-down? Maby, when the sail is repaired, try hoist it the other way. Good job though, yaba looks great!

[@juergenzenner4219]

Wahoooo. With the new chartplotter, Yaba has now arrived really in the year 2024!!!!

[@dennisgaskins8393]

Get you some split rubber/plastic conduit. Comes in a roll of blk. in sizes of need. It will cover up wires & cable support line. Dennis Gaskins, New Bern, N.C. USA. You guys have done wonderful for Yaba !

[@johnmagnan759]

on Amazon GS Power Wire Loom 3/4 inch X 25 feet split cable sleeves. Comes in other sizes too.

[@joecruiser]

Finally almost underway. Bon Voyage. Enjoy. ❤

[@michaelbaron8089]

Great entertaining episode.

[@davehine724]

Pinky swear locks you in!!! See ya next week SAILING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@philmay113]

The banter between the two of you is funny and this was an excellent vidio. Yabba is really looking very good now and an excellent boat to live on, have fun and safe sailing, from the old Englishman.

[@MiaEngel-p4u4u]

It's nice to see MP enjoying a typical British summers day :)

[@ManivannanEhambaram_]

I love you guys , have fun , I want to sail again

[@SilentSooYun]

I like the irony that your "fourth sail" is the foresail :)

[@creageous]

You guys are as crazy as when you bought that sinking boat. Maybe even crazier. Good luck with everything! ❤

[@johnmiddleton6252]

Epic episode I loved every minute. What a really fun time you had I had a smile on the whole . Really loved when you went in a Gail to go sailing. I think you were lucky to get back alive. I can't wait for next week's video.

[@Lea4-22]

super entertainment. Love you guys and Dad, too

[@xaviercousyn4227]

I like your point of view about "Crossing the pond" :) it's always and as usual straight forward on "the pond" 😂

[@finlaymunro5942]

Oh my word! Sandgreen, Mossyard, Carrick Shore..spent so much time there sailing or mostly swimming with the jellyfish. There used to be a sailing festival week in August which was heaven for teenagers! Mind you that was 50 years ago! Loving your adventures on Yaba!

[@stuartlynn-q8q]

Little sailboats are so much fun in strong winds but warmer water is even more fun ❤

[@EileenMetrejean]

I missed you guys on Sunday, but so glad to see you today 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉.

[@giannisalmaso9143]

Guys you are awesome

[@andymack5093]

Poor MP, feeling the cold after Brazil - full sympathies! Well done Ben and mate for battling the "elements" of a typical late Scottish summer day - lol....

[@StephanBeal-k5j]

Wonderful episode!! You guys are such an inspiration!

[@davehine724]

A fine looking holiday!!! So glad you could go!!

[@vivanasperen3339]

There are many options for wall mounted swing arms for devices. That would be great to get the screen up closer and then out of the way later.

[@TBop111]

I’ve been a sailmaker for 50 years and the head sail you just installed has got some rot on the foot , and you will have to make repairs by removing the rot along the cover . It also looks a bit discolored in some of the other areas , that’s where the rot is.

[@michaelvanwinkle7919]

Bon Voyage!

[@greglaing3721]

Use an umbrella upside down under where you are working to catch dropped pieces

[@jopac6614]

wonderful scotland summer!!! lets go sailing!!!!👏👏👏

[@davesav1]

Very supprised to watch you in Scotland, you would have passed by my house my 2 miles as you dove up the M6 motorway. (I live in North Lancashire,UK). I've watched your progress over the last three years and look forward to watching your adventures over the next few years.

[@bobuncle8704]

You didn’t say “no takebacks”, so you’re safe.

[@jamesvanian5524]

Great to see Scotland, I was born there. Love the work you are doing at the moment. Such an interesting and varied video. Keep well and safe. James.

[@douglasburch2320]

That was some radical sailing in Scotland!! As always, thanks for taking us along.

[@garybarker9139]

"Spiro Wrap" for running cables. Used on aircraft and long lasting.

[@ssmith5650]

What a fun lively video. Happy 😊 faces. Yabá has a delightful profile. Welcome home my adorable Brazlian friend and I wish you success on her maiden sail

[@davedawson4830]

I laughed, then again with MP's comment. Corny is funny - and Ben has a lot of funny. Cheers from Canada

[@dianne.murielrobidoux9008]

Ben you've showed us the dare devil side if you 😂 MP always keeping good contact with your father is nice. And that view from the old boat yard! Wow

[@tpjames2020]

The dinghy sailing looked awesome 👍

[@joseramos7476]

Great adventure guys!

[@janaferreira8882]

🤙 there's the pinky. Now you better sail! 😂😂❤

[@jonjacob1962]

Congrats again, you guys. Every video, you guys get a little closer to full-on sailing. Be patient, Ben. I know you've BEEN patient for the past 3.5 years. Lol. I wanna SEE Yabá sailing, too. I can only imagine how badly you wanna get out there and SAIL her. But rushing leads to mistakes. Take the time to fix the sail properly. Get all the little tiny things all taken care of. No matter how small. A small problem on a sailboat out in the middle of an ocean can get big real quick. I know I'm preaching to the choir. Just be careful not to let your excitement make you take risky chances... Anyways. You guys are awesome! I'm SO happy for you!

[@philipclayton6793]

I see you had beautiful weather here in Flanders... een perfecte Vlaamse zomer! Thank you for this video. Yabà is really family for us here. I hope you bring her along (or she brings you along) soon to Oostende!

[@charlesmalone1854]

hi folks well done getting this far your boat looks great i have been watching your channel for some years now, always up beat and smiling. i can,t believe you came to south west scotland on holiday i wish i had known i live in Dumfries and would have loved to have met you both and bought you,s a beer keep up the good work all the best and fair winds Charlie

[@gordonbrydson4733]

I missed you all on Sunday but i was not worried as much I kind of thought that some thing came up and we will hear later SEEING YOUR POST ON TUESDAY MORNING MADE MY DAY. First time posting on Tuesday. Looking forward to SAIL DAY.GOOD LUCK FROM Florida USA.

[@Lea4-22]

Love you guys and Dad, too Thanks Mom for always being there for these kids and doggies. Super entertaining video. Hugs, Lea

[@gregsecore9625]

to be honest with you that depth finder that should've been one of the first things that you had on the boat when you launched it, that's crazy you having a boat that big with LA depth finder. You are lucky you did not ripped out that bottom of the boat,that does show your experience with boating, you really do need some classes I am 100% sure of that, there is so much to know about boating about Belize there is a lot you should learn. And I would recommend for you to start immediately. The boat is looking beautiful keep up your adventures I'm sure you will remember them for a lifetime

[@electricboatal]

Pretty exciting to think that all of your hard labor and planning has brought you to this wonderful conclusion. Soon you will be sliding through the seas with ease because of all of your meticulous planning. I am very happy for you guys, now get out of port and enjoy your labors. Best Regards, Your Pal Al

Wat zullen jullie trots zijn,..en terecht. Wat een ongelooflijk stuk werk hebben jullie gedaan, Ome Ben, Tante MP, de "oude meester" en al de anderen op de werf. Nou jongens varen met die Geit....uh,.. prachtige Boot.

[@FarFromN0thing]

Instead of mounting your garmin on the flat surface, you can install on a telescoping mount.

[@phillo1818]

It's safer to be cautiously optimistic, which has a back-door if needed, than to pinkie swear, especially on camera. Goes hand-in-hand with trust but verify. Congratulations on the 22nd century upgrades and have a great week.

[@ddevil4980]

Congratulations on the new nephew guys! Looks like you had a great time!

[@OldManGibb]

Massive congrats on the 100k subs.

[@mathewjaycox843]

A suggestion for conduit for the wires, use some of the flexible water pipe.Of course whatever you use needs to able to handle being in the sun all the time.

[@robm.4512]

We use split UPVC conduit for sail chafe protection on shrouds, there’s enough space within it for a cable run. If you can’t get hold of split conduit you could try using a table saw with a slim blade fitted to split normal upvc conduit. Cheers, R.

[@joes7166]

Good idea. There is also stuff called loom or split loom. Some even have velcro closure along the length. Comes in a range of sizes. I am in the USA so availability of this stuff is better. Maybe Amazon? There is also expanding sleeving but that stuff would be a pain to work with on such a long length and would require taking one end off the shroud off.

[@Tomm9y]

Nothing like sailing a dinghy off the shores of UK or Ireland. It's so good to learn in a dinghy. Perhaps MP could sign up for an RYA/ISA course on her next visit. The fundamentals are important. later, there are Day Skipper and Yachtmaster courses. In the meantime keep a log of the passages you make, that's part of further qualifications. Do you have a sailmaker who can check over the sails, re-stitch, repair, etc?

[@barryedwards4481]

Great to see you back it’s great to spend time with family as I’m watching your vlog at 11pm Tuesday night here in Victoria Australia 🇦🇺 another thing is the Dinghy Davits on the stern then happy sailing cheers Barry

[@CaptMarkSVAlcina]

Melbourne Australia here as well

[@carlthor91]

Fore jib has a hole, and an empty furling drum. Yippie. Best wishes all.

[@deaconallan]

Another great episode. As you add electronics and wiring, especially when near the compass, you should consider having your compass adjusted after the work is completed. You have a chart plotter but one day it may not work, and you will have to rely on the compass for heading info.

[@steventrostle1825]

What is so amazing about the technology aside from the expense is that in 3 years everything you did today will be Obsolete!

[@sjsobol1]

Need to use the umbrella trick to keep from losing stuff in the water when doing repairs.

[@bdphourde]

Nice to be even closer! It would not be a good idea to have the window open over the chart plotter underway. The salt in the air will permeate everything and all of your electronics and electrical connections are there. Are you going to come back another time and take all the shipwrights out sailing?

[@Edvaldolinodasilva]

Não sabia que Ben era escocês! Legal.

[@icepick1945]

I'd run the cables down the mast, not out on the stays flapping about and ready to get snagged by sheets and sails. Just a thought.

[@ManivannanEhambaram_]

[@eimearshanahan1567]

I can't believe you guys were almost in my neck of the woods ! I am in Ireland, we have had no Summer this year 😭, only 2 or 3 days a month of sunshine ! It is hard to understand global warming when our little island is colder and wetter 😱

[@BMGrilla60]

Great progress on the boat. You have come such a long way. Personally speaking, I would be happy to see you complete all preparations completely before setting sail. A lifetime of experience tells me unless you complete your work before you set out, more things will come up and you never will.

Boa tarde .Acompanhei desde o começo sua saga de reconstrução.Li quase todos os comentários .Muitos diziam que era loucura,desperdício de tempo e principalmente de dinheiro .Acho que hoje 3 anos depois ,muitas ondas bateram em seus costados,muitos ventos tentaram mudar seu rumo,muitas tempestades furiosas se formaram no horizonte trazendo receios e levantado medos ,pelo imensurável inexplicável amor a um barco considerado morto e partir nessa aventura pela vida e mares nunca dantes navegados ,não tem dinheiro que pague o que vcs fizeram e provavelmente estão sentindo .Eu estou emocionado e feliz.Que barco lindo ,que fenix saída das águas ,para as águas e pelas aguas.Linda ,linda linda .É bonita é bonita e é bonita.Adeus e até breve.Nos vemos por aí.Não quiz traduzir minha postagem.Na verdade a lingua portuguesa com certeza é´muito linda,mas esse barco é para inglês ver kkkk .Abraço apertado de quem vos ama e admira pelo exemplo de alegria resiliencia crença fé e faca amolada.Sem palavras,emocionado.
