Great video! I have seen a few negative comments on your project but what I think people don’t understand is that Uma is one of three characters of the story! I don’t know what it is but I loose interest in other channels when they trade in there boats for so much more expensive yachts. So from a fan that has been with you since you purchased her in that boatyard keep up the good work!!!😊

[@johnherleman9732]

Agreed. Way too often, some of the other channels seem to have become the “problems with new boats” channel. I suspect the analytics will support my concern.

[@lifeasafanpodcast9529]

I've been watching delos build their new boat so boat work is kinda interesting 😳

[@LostYogi]

I totally agree, but then again I did get into sailing video by watching Mads from Sail Life do his "somewhat extensive refit"

[@ottigreenisgo]

@@LostYogiIm so glad he’s doing another one!

[@LostYogi]

@@ottigreenisgo Me 2, now I got 2-4 more years of Mads doing boat work to watch 🙂

[@doppler3237]

your kidding right?

[@Q_The_Rabbit]

Whenever I feel unmotivated or lean towards slacking off, I get a Uma refresher.

[@balaenopteramusculus]

It really is a big motivator for daunting projects, isn't it?

[@JohnRushworth]

Weep holes you say - us ex Royal Navy pedants call them - “A limber hole is a drain hole through a frame or other structural member of a boat designed to prevent water from accumulating against one side of the frame, and allowing it to drain toward the bilge.”

[@scottcates]

Such a good idea, those.

[@Gottenhimfella]

@@scottcates Indeed. A particularly good idea (especially in, but not just in, wooden bolts) is to rig a synthetic line fore and aft passing through each row of limber holes, with a short piece of suitably small (plastic) chain hitched to it where it passes thru each floor (the proper name for the frame reinforcement under the cabin sole) to keep the limber holes free of debris. The ends of the line are tethered to lengths of bungee cord, so all the holes can be cleared at once from any point.

[@scottcates]

@@Gottenhimfella Fantastic idea. I've seen LOTS of older sailboats with rotted soles that would have benefitted from such a setup.

[@knightime14]

Well done, you got so much done this week. It really showed. This week's episode was fantastic!

[@jamesmyers3773]

I am anticipating a future episode when Uma is sailing again and Kika stops and says, “Listen how quiet it is!”. Everything is coming together so well. Happy for you both. Your hard work is paying off.

Congratulations. That is a big milestone you have reached here. Being able to start painting. A new chapter begins in refitting Uma.

[@johngeda1634]

I believe that you are adding hull windows so that the vertically challenged member of your crew can look outside while inside the cabin.

[@jimmyallen2245]

My two cents is NEW FOUND METAL ports are best there is. Great company to work with. 😊

[@atlestoraker4812]

[@DanielDinsmore-i3l]

amazing job , it will be the strongest possible. My family built boats and your attention to the details is truely impressive.

[@Birkguitars]

I am guessing the extra foam is for mounting the forward facing photon torpedo tubes. You do have photon torpedo tubes in the design don't you?

[@martinpugh9700]

Boat too small for Quantum Torpedoes?

[@Birkguitars]

@martinpugh9700 They may raise issues with the Geneva Convention. Liable to create wormholes or undead cats.

[@pegwhite6533]

Another great video! I'm way too old (78) to be crawling around anywhere, I even have to have a plan for getting up for the rare occasion I get down, but I surely enjoy watching you two very talented wonderful people do it. Keep up the good, and so precise, work. 🤗

[@jessiebrader2926]

Thanks for the video. I feel for you working all this time in the 'itchy and scratchy'... the paint will help that a lot! I have built surfboards in the past, I know this is different, but when I see you working with resin I am screaming "faster, faster before it sets up".... the old days in me!! I have sailed a lot, I try to imagine how I would change the layout of a boat given the chance. Loved the custom quarter berth, best place to be in a blow. Keep it up, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Awaiting next week, another step closer to the ocean!

[@YaBoySkinny]

So excited to see this project finished it’s come such a long way and you guys will enjoy it for years to come

[@seanmolony-redstickastro238]

These are my favorite videos of the boat build. Just to watch and go along with what you’re doing and think about how I might have tackled the issue. I had a loot of those moments when building the camp. Great stuff. Sean

[@echothegoodwolf]

I’m constantly impressed with that too! Not just that they’re still civil and still working as a team, but that they still crack each other up and find joy in working together. That can be so hard on frustrating projects, when nerves are wearing thin and exhaustion has stolen some of the joy. I love seeing them be silly and make each other laugh.

Always push sealants into place. Even in the state compounds are found in tubes, we are stretching the material when we pull the nozzle along.

[@markarmitage8376]

Quite the milestone! Well done.

[@Tomm9y]

You guys are such a good team, that is wonderful thing to have created. Sure it must be challenging to work and live with the constraints, but you both have the fundamental design skills to really engage in the process. The absence of external work, really keeps it as a beautiful partnership. Along with your years of experience sailing and living on Uma, it is a very powerful combination to develop and realise this project. You make great videos too! I'm surprised you are applying the Sikaflex 291i on open joints, are these not more suited to being glassed? and the 291i used to make vibration resistant joint seals? Apologies in advance if I am missing something.

[@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017]

I like how you explained how you normally wouldn't use nails in the boat but given the seal they definitely should be fine. Even if they rusted the remaining bond would be the same.

[@thommeyer6356]

This entire refit of Uma is absolutely riveting...well done. I'll be very curious to see how the reconstruction ultimately affects the waterline. Keep up the great work!

[@jemckee]

My guess for the reinforcements toward the beginning is to give a strong base for something outside, maybe connections for lines that hold the mast in place. or maybe a bracket to hold lights or instruments outside, or a garden. .

[@Ibh111142]

She certainly is going to be much stiffer making her a better boat. Well done! 26:24

[@magnar7150]

So cool! And I'm guessing the reinforcement is for a new type of rig! Keep it coming - loving every step along your journey!! And please come back to Norway ❤️

[@i_am_am_i]

Love the opening track, sanding and cutting sounds sync’d to the shoegaze music. Good stuff.

[@faraway5828]

Firstly, it's irrelevant for use of nails ... but the real issue with ferrous metals in oak is not specifically the damp, it's the manner in which oak (and other acidic hardwoods) eat ferrous fixings. Its similar to the damage from anaerobic corrosion in stainless - you experience significant loss of material deep within the fabric

I always felt if the hull was strong with bulkheads and all you guys are doing then like a bottle floating in the open sea and no matter what the conditions are as long as the bottle cap (companion way) is secured you should never have to worry about sinking. Nice job guys.

[@johnrussel4483]

Great! I can.t wait to see the look with the primer on !

[@zenmark42]

It's kinda funny how you're glassing in all these cabinets and tertiary things so much better than the main bulkheads were glassed in when the boat was made. It seems like if you had just rebuilt the cabinets the way you're doing now the boat would have still been 1000% more rigid than new. I'm excited to see how your new rigging stuff figures in, I forget if we've seen your preparations for that yet or not but I'm sure you guys will have some fun making those sufficiently overbuilt to go with the rest of your work. I think it was a no brainer for you guys to jump on the opportunity to do this DIY rebuild not just because obviously we all love seeing all this work, but you're also getting the cheapest boat made this well you could possibly get, and as you discussed in the previous videos it would be hard to find anyone to do this level of work for any money. Also, personally, this is my favorite phase of the channel, I got into you guys because I loved watching you do boat work, and seeing you travel the world is cool and all, but finally seeing you guys tackling the final boss of boat work is a sight to behold. That coat of primer is going to be magical... (and as a bonus it'll finally look like the renderite version on the screen!)
