Never, ever, ever allow your autopilot to make pre-programmed turns for you. If you want to use it to navigate to a point, fine. Just set your point well enough ahead of your intended turn that you can either hand steer through the turn or punch in the turn yourself at the appropriate time. Allowing your autopilot to decide it's safe to initiate a turn, especially in restricted waters, is a recipe for disaster, as you experienced. I caught my crew doing that once on a Chesapeake Bay trip and, trust me, they'll never do it again! Props to you for "fessing up." Experience is the best teacher. Someone else's experience is usually less expensive!

I have seen that some newest Nordhavn Yachts are using a teak wood imitation instead of the real teak because it does not require any maintenance and still looks great, but it is even more expensive than real teak. Using a sealant instead of varnish is probably a good idea to make it easier to maintain in the future, good job!

All good ideas, but I use two coats of Cetol Marine Gloss finish over a first coat (on bear teak) of Cetol Natural Teak finish. Really brings out the beauty of the wood like no other method, and holds up (no flaking or bleaching) for years with no sanding between coats or when refinishing! Heart warming teak rails and next-to-no maintenance!

Should you ever go from Florida to the Bahamas you will experience a current of more than 5 knots in the Gulf Stream heading north. Should your boat only be making about 7-8 knots, your autopilot following a course will turn further and further south to try to maintain no cross track error until it is pointing due south against the current. As a result, your distance made good will go to zero and you never get to the Bahamas. Instead of following a route, you need to calculate the northerly set you will incur during the crossing using average boat and average Gulf Stream current speed.

That's it? my boat has lots of teak trim. The flat surfaces fare the worst. Get yourselves a Bahco scraper and you'll be down to bare wood in no time. Seal it well, and lay on 5-7 coats of varnish. I like Interlux Schooner or Epiphanes. Some make fabric covers for the winter and seem to do OK.

Should have the rail rebuilt with King Starboard. Never have to re-finish again. Can have it textured anyway you want it and formed any style. Can even get it in colors and could do something in gray or lighter color or even black if you want. I use it for a number of projects and works great. Worth a look anyway.

Agree that it is better to avoid wood, but if you have it, it sure looks nice varnished. My son makes a living refinishing teak on boats and says that if you gave your rails a light sanding and a coat of varnish every year, you would go five or six years between major refinishing. For the serious refinish, hire someone to do it. Rails like yours can be done while the boat is in the water and aren't that expensive to get done because you are not paying for skilled labor.

"Driving the magenta line" is actually a fairly common mistake many people make. Its common for people using auto pilot tied to their plotter, to just watch the progress on the course line, and not the water around them. To combat that potentially disastrous scenario (I ran aground once because of it) I am constantly checking and marking my location on paper charts using nav aids. Its the main reason paper charts are always next to me at the helm of ANY boat I am steering. Especially when using a plotter!. Glad you are sharp and aware, and did not hole that beautiful vessel!

Hey folks you should have taped off the edges of the hand rail before you re-varnished. Apply two coats then wait a half an hour to let the coating set, then pull off the tape. It will save you a lot grief and frustration in the process. Also work out of a 1 gal pail/can with an inch of varnish in the can , use a 2 inch pure bristle brush, let it hang in water over night if you need, it will keep soft and usable the next day. I am a professional boat painter. Heat guns wont lift the old varnish off on harden old marine spar varnish

I don’t know anything about boats but I am a pilot and an aircraft owner, when my autopilot « makes a programmed turn, » it follows a signal (in this case gps), any deviation to the programmed « path », caused by the wind or current, will be followed by an appropriate « correction » from the autopilot. The reaction time from the autopilot (any and all autopilots will react more or less with the same lag), will result in a deviation from that path. He reacted much faster than any autopilot ever could. Good job!

Tip: check the charts and understand the underwater topography to look for currents and how they could affect the boat. Deeper channels have more current because they have less resistance to tides, etc. Currents will flow around rocks, islands, etc. Also understand the tide tables to know whether currents are flooding, ebbing, etc. In other words, you can study and predict ahead of time where the currents will be, to a large extent. Good software like Navionics also calculates this.

My friend has a wooden 40ft or so Mathews. - It was like owning a helicopter. Fly it 10 hours work on it 5 hours. He always invited friends and associate on weekends so they could work on the boat in the morning and run it in the afternoon. Boats are labor intensive enough without spending more time fixing rot, soft spots, or scraping and treating wood. While wood is beautiful, running and using the boat is a lot more fun than being a part time boat-wright, the lower maintenance the better. Fleming yachts, for example, has come up with a cap rail that looks like wood but is a synthetic low maintenance material.

I live aboard Sea Prince.. a Norfolk Broads Cruiser built in 1946 .. Mahogany, Oak and other assorted wood... 😻 ... You could do with removing the hinge and other fittings and treat and use a sealant to stop water getting under there.. have some spare screw's that are slightly longer or use stainless threaded bolts.. Use PTFE under screw head to stop water and a scalpel to poke in or remove anything visible.. Chips can be repaired with waterproof UV stable cyanoacrylate... I would have taken them off done a full treatment and proper bedding.. I didn't like the seam of sealant, could be a water trap.. btw.. always 'moor' aka tie up a board or dingy even on land.. preferably to something that doesn't float but that log would have been ok..

A few episodes ago you showed us how to cook a steak and now I get to learn how they are made!? It’s too much! Oh and I cruised on my parents sailboat for a few years and it was covered in teak. Your video triggered me and I can smell the burning teak the way that a vibrating sander makes my hands itch and feel the blisters from the heat gun. Dragon is Teakless, cept the purdy parts inside

Everyone needs to relax, it was an innocent little comment about an island. Besides, I think Shawn and Elizabeth are based.

@@thereissomecoolstuff It's kind of a running joke. When/ if you say his name people freak out. It's like saying Beetlejuice. The other hint is how a group of certain people are going around demanding the names of everything be changed.

To advize people not to have a boat with teak trim is sad, you insult all Fleming, Sabre, Hunt, Vicem, and Tollycraft owners who love the look of teak and love the process of mantaining it. Its something that separates some of the best looking boats from the all gelcoat and stainless only look alikes on the water. Love your teak and learn how to put a good coat of varnish on it. You will enjoy the look and take pride in your work.

You could replace the wood and the ladder steps on the stern and the ladder steps with starboard. They make starboard in a gove grey color which would look great.

Can confirm, wood is awful on a boat. Growing up my dad fully restored a wood 50' Chris Craft. Lots of work.

TOTALLY agree! Wood is a pain in the UKW LOL!!!. I would have just SOAKED the teak with linseed oil - THE BEST treatment for wood. It just can't be done if your deck is teak. Varnish and sealers are not good for water ever.

Was wondering why you wouldn’t just use a heavy duty polyurethane to seal the teak rail? Polyurethane is almost indestructible when applied to woods. Just wondering. Thanks.

So I have been seeing people varnish their wood and than put a clear coat of epoxy over that- have you considered looking into that method?

Fleming Yachts have a fake varnish wood rail that apparently lasts a long time. Might be patented as I have not seen it offered on other vessels?

Fleming calls it burrwood. Named after burr yacht sells the Fleming dealer on the east coast. It's more expensive than real teak but is much less maintained than real teak but looks really good. Very hard to tell the difference

Some totally useless information for you, when a cow mounts another one if the one underneath walks away, it means the one on top is in season, if the one on the bottom stays still, she is the one in season. :) Thats my contribution to help your KZbin algorithm. :) Best wishes, from the land of dragons.
