That capt. is lucky he's got a guy like Davey and all his skills as a friend! Good on y'all

[@BarefootTravels]

It’s definitely a big project. Happy to help our fellow buddy boats!

Multi-tool cutters have been a game changer.. whoever invented them should get an award or something.. lol

[@BarefootTravels]

Definitely agree!!

[@dennisd6527]

Boy, Lagoons haven't had much to crow about lately.

[@markayers5397]

Thank you!

Collin from Sailing Parlay Revival found the compression post in the salon above that repair totally rusted out from the water from the mast, might be worth removing the trim to check.(Sailing Parlay Revival episode 220)

[@BarefootTravels]

Will check it out.

Great job Davy!

[@BarefootTravels]

Thanks Ron!!

[@fraserm803]

love it...

[@johnyalowica8423]

I'll keep looking!

Love the welsh dragon.

[@markblair6533]

Interesting. Id venture a guess that most everyone who is looking at cats to buy will laugh at anyone even considering a Lagoon. Years of sub par building has put a lot of owners in peril.

[@BarefootTravels]

Also too many surveyors not doing a good enough job.

[@markblair6533]

Still working on a bird sitter

[@Smiileymiiley22]

@@BarefootTravelsRight Davy, this was surveyed less than 9 months ago.

[@michaelhaardt5988]

To be fair, AFAIK there is a technical notice about this from Lagoon, so in theory everybody should know about the locker/nacelle drainage issue. It looks like you are doing this in time before worse happens.

[@BarefootTravels]

Lagoon actually sent out a rep who drilled a couple holes to help with the water accumulation. He unfortunately didn’t notice that it was already rotting out at that point. The holes that were drilled didn’t really help as they were still too high to let the water out

Not sure what camera you are using but the quality of the picture is stunning. My PC says 1080p but looks more like 4K. Would be awesome to know what camera .. cheers guys.

[@BarefootTravels]

We use a GoPro 9 currently. We have two of them that we swap between. We also sometimes use the insta 360

[@bensteel3944]

@@BarefootTravels ... Thanks for the reply guys. I have been thinking about getting the Insta360 Go3

[@geofferyrobertson6608]

shouldn't you have to put it on the hard to get it properly square and level ??

[@rastagrastag7784]

Where did you purchase your water holding tanks?

[@BarefootTravels]

Came with the boat I think

[@johnyalowica8423]

Hello Davie! Did you find a mast?

[@BarefootTravels]

Nope. Not yet

[@rayboucher479]

Can you not just do it from one side and just grind and cut bad the rotten wood from one side until you hit the Fiberglass on the back side and hopefully not damage it too much . Then apply Fiberglass to repair and strengthen the remaining glass and epoxy new fibre board and Fiberglass to finish . May be more work and a lot dirtier but might prevent you from having to go in from the rear matey ! Good luck I love watching your show and have not seen it for a while.

[@BarefootTravels]

It needs to be a double sided repair. From the anchor locker I can get the worst of the rot out but to add strength I need to chase any cracks from the inside and glass for strength

[@faircompetition1203]

No biggy , it just holds up the mast and the two hulls on - not like it needs to be solid - right Lagoon ? Plus this looks like the kind of thing any owner can do himself ........ If only they made a core material that did not rot ? The Builder could have used that for a spot that anyone with a mast knows would get wet . I also note that drilling holes to drain without then filling the holes with epoxy will also let water into the core and if you did that to my boat they might not find your body ......

[@BarefootTravels]

😆😆😆 love this comment

[@tjs0067]

I will never buy a lagoon to many bulk head issues. I do not trust lagoon.

[@BarefootTravels]

Same here.

[@DRB68]

Shockingly badly built boats. Aluminium is so much better.

[@johncooper3404]

Who n their right mind would buy a lagoon
