Yes, oxalic works wonders, but following up with a two-part bleach eliminates all the staining. Two-part is also handy if you are wanting to colour match all the different types of wood on your boat. A good solution to your woodwork, if you don’t mind the input, is to apply a teak veneer, rather than building everything up again from scratch. Veneer is great for hiding a multitude of previous sins. Using a two-part finish will give you better protection, and ensure that you don’t have to bother with the brightwork again for a number of years.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Thanks, some great stuff there. The oxalic worked a treat.

Okay Peter. I have been talking about building a cedar strip kayak for years. Well, I have ordered the plans and yesterday I picked up an older table saw that I am in the process of restoring. Going to need lots of 3/16X3/4 cedar strips. I have my son placing an order for a canoe and my daughter placing her kayak order. Starting with the canoe first, just a touch easier for a first build project. Darn good thing I have retired. I think I will be scrapping and sanding a whole bunch for the next year. Just to let you know, I get a pretty good shot of inspiration from watching you and a few other choice boat building youtubers. I do believe it will be a major effort to persevere through it ( can I use that word instead of perseverance?) (beers might help, or possibly rum)

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Yay! I'm so glad. you'll have a wonderful time!

[@todddunn945]

You have your work cut out for you Peter. It would be easiest to build a new house, but that requires hauling out and working inside. Expensive, plus you would need a place to live while doing it.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

So true. But I'm not ruling it out.......C'mon, I could do it at the marina......

[@53Peterbilt]

How about running your mahogany piece from the stem all the way back to the hatch, instead of stopping it? I think it would make your whole front deck much stronger, and give you a really nice center trim piece. I'd be inclined to have all my deck fittings bolted down to this, like the windlass treadle buttons (seeing how the new windlass will be under the deck), the Sampson post, and the anchor chocks. I think it'd give your front deck nice symmetry. I did something similar kinda in the overhead in my Peterbilt's headliner. I ran a trim board from the overhead counsel, to the roof vent I have ,which is also trimmed in mahogany. In this trim board, I have my countersunk map lights and control knobs, and a panel of interior light switches. It gives the interior a nice rich feel, much like an old boat. :) Another winner Peter. Keep 'em coming! Cheers!

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

You know my original thought was just this. But I'm not sure how to detail against the windshield. Might just end with the hatch as a circle like a big thermometer. Your truck sounds freakin' nice.

[@53Peterbilt]

@@TravelsWithGeordie you could always extend it, so that it flows from the stem, all the way through the hatch, and merges into the windshield. If you wanted to be picky enough, you could always make a band to go around the hatch to connect the 2 sections into one. That would look beautiful, and create a great seamless flow. MMmmmmmmm....love me some polished mahogany! oh, and my truck is a trip. it's definitely a ship of it's own Be well

Fluid Film; yes great stuff, I use it for corrosion protection for my small classic Britissh care collection. You once questioned if available in the US; yes it is, I buy it in Lowes. I use Dielectric Grease for many of the same things use the FF for such as sliding on rubber hose connections. It'ss the stuff used to prevent spark plug rubber water/dirt protection sleeves from bonding to the sparkplugs. Love your videos; you blend just about the same amount of perfection with practicality that I do on my car and boat work (have a C&C 27 sail boat; lot of balsa core repair). Aim for perfection but sometimes compromise is necessary. Years ago I heard a story about a shipwright taking great care making temporary supports for a wooden boat build, the apprentice wondered why bother? The shipwright said, well; every day when we come in to work we will see that stuff and the good workmanship will give us a bit off a boost tor doing the real work of the day.

If the glass thickness comes level with the surface behind the framing it seals really well varnish, 8 coats ... this is gonna be long ...

You might want to try a varnish called “Le Tonkenois” It’s from South East Asia, it’s available on Amazon It builds quick and lasts. It does not require sanding between coats Its very easy to add a coat. It’s truly magic A tip, you decant it into small cans and store the one you are using upside down, to avoid the tough skin it forms.

Hi Peter, I've been re-watching the videos on making the cockpit locker thwarts and have a possible solution to your having to use ratchet straps. Please refer to the drawings I've attached links for - that will make much more sense when reading this. You could take some ratchet strap-type webbing that was long enough to lay under your wider jobs, and wrap up onto the top sides, with enough length for loops - and have the loops sewn to secure them. Then you could put your normal clamps in the loops and tighten away. That should give you quite a bit of variation in width you can accommodate. I'd love to know what you think of the idea - and you won't hurt my feelings if you think it stinks - I promise !!! If you like them I'd be chuffed if we could call them Geordie Straps.
