Life is Like Sailing - Beneteau 38 Boat Tour - Part 1

[@mattkelly6592]

You could have a custom made butcher block with a radius to cover the right hand sink and still have the inside or left hand sink and use it for a prep/cutting area

[@SV-Valhalla]

Thank you for the tour of your home John. Thanks Alfy for putting it together.

[@lifeislikesailing]

You are welcome!! :)

Nice boat for a 38' from 1992. Looks really neat outside. Thanks for sharing. Thanks for captions.

[@lifeislikesailing]

I nice boat for sure! :)

[@SailingwiththeFoxwellFamily]

Hi Alfy. Thanks for sharing your tour of Johns boat. Tell him not to give up on the twin sinks to quickly. We had a 32s5 for a couple of years, great boat with basically the exact same, all be it smaller, layout as Johns and you have to think of the sinks as a sink and a deep drainer. As a live aboard I can see how you might like to make better use of the space but when your at sea being able to wash in one and then leave to drip dry in the other is a real bonus.

[@WakeforMe]

Agreed. It's a simple enough 'fix' to configure a board that will cover the sinks and serve as countertop for food prep or whatever.

[@lifeislikesailing]

Good point!

[@lifeislikesailing]

Good solution!

Sailing with the Foxwell Family

[@bctruck]

Sailing with the Foxwell Family albeit. Sorry. Couldn’t stop myself.

[@MichelleGianni]

Great video I am considering buying this model boat as a liveaboard year round so I am so glad I found this video!

[@SailLife]

Awesome video Alfy :) Good looking boat - just as the boat across the pontoon ;) Thanks for a great tour. Now it's on to part two :)

[@lifeislikesailing]

haha...glad you enjoyed the tour Mads!! Yes that other boat looks pretty sweet!! lol

[@Beanieweenieable]

Sail Life hey Mads good to see you here too!

[@RAJAesq]

Thank you Alfy. I enjoyed the equipment details (i.e. diesel heater). Please do more of these, if you can. Please provide more electronic & equipment comparison, along with the personal boat owners preferences re. pros. & cons. of electronics and mechanicals. It is helpful for those of us looking at electronic and/or equipment purchases in the future.

[@lifeislikesailing]

Glad you enjoyed this type of video, I will try to get as much detail and info as I can.

[@Marlow64]

suggest a cover for second sink rather than removal

[@elireloaded]

The fact that the green Bose speaker fits perfectly between the rails on the galley table greatly satisfies my OCD.

[@tWoforgamenot1]

very cool boat ! :)thank you 38 not to big to sail alone :)

[@Rottingboards]

Make a wooden curved cutting board to go on top of the sink or both sinks.

[@lifeislikesailing]

Great solution!

[@DonHarden]

great. nice to how the rice folks live! looking forward to part 2

[@lifeislikesailing]

I hope you enjoyed part 2!!

[@wilsnich02]

I enjoyed part one and I am looking forward part two....

[@lifeislikesailing]

Glad you enjoyed it!!

[@Michael_the_muffinman]

I like how much space he has for clothing storage. How do you store your clothes?

[@lifeislikesailing]

You can see that on this video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqKUZYujr7GDgMU

[@Michael_the_muffinman]

Thanks so much for the reply. One more question. How do you get you mail when living on a boat? PO box or do some marinas have individual boxes? Thanks again!!!

[@BobDrawson]

Nice video!

[@lifeislikesailing]

Thanks!

[@allanrickard2117]

you could use one sink as a extra toilet when you drink too much and the weather is rough but dont catch your ball sack on the tap jack and no brown ones

[@lifeislikesailing]

I guess that is an option. lol

[@seikibrian8641]

If he remembered the brand of his diesel furnace that wasn't an Espar, I didn't catch it. Webasto, maybe?

[@WakeforMe]

Good one Alfy!

[@lifeislikesailing]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@joelw2023]

he should just move the outside water faucet to the other sink and make a cutting board cover for that sink he wants to remove

[@joelw2023]

now I read the comments once the video is done and I feel like a parrot.

[@lifeislikesailing]

haha....that happens. :)

[@theislandpackrat]

Smart move on the heads always wondered why people need 6 heads for 6 people!

[@lifeislikesailing]

I agree!

[@TheSteelTech]

that's the difference between charter or private. Problem is so many boats are set up for charter. Make it murder finding an owner version.

[@lifeislikesailing]

TheSteelTech I agree with that too. :)

[@thetruckersmanifesto3873]

im a optimist so im getting one.

[@lifeislikesailing]

Awesome! :)

[@Schaneification]

A Beneteau from the 80's

[@DonHarden]

he said his boat is 25 years old. what year is it?

[@allanrickard2117]

3121 years old

[@Beanieweenieable]

Hey guys what year beneteau?

[@lifeislikesailing]

I'm sure John mentions the year of the boat, plus other details in the PART 2 video. :)

[@BRP_USA]

38s5. Starck design.

[@starrintnl]

What year is this?

[@lifeislikesailing]

I think that is answered in part 2.

[@starrintnl]

Fully! Sorry about that...

[@lifeislikesailing]

Cliff Starr no prob! :) lol

[@Tom-dx1tv]

why the heck would a 38ft boat have ever needed TWO bathrooms? Wise choice in removing the 2nd one.

[@mycargoszoom]

Yea this is a sail boat. You sail on it. And this is water. You sail on it.

[@thetruckersmanifesto3873]

that boat is sexxy.i want one.

[@lifeislikesailing]

It is a very nice boat for sure!

[@tWoforgamenot1]

:)

[@129jaystreet]

John's hot!
