Hi Atom Crew, I was wondering what length that berth is on the port side (the one that expands into a double)? Thanks for putting this video up, all the upgrades look really good!

I think the port berth was 6' 2" and stbd was one inch shorter. James

do you rebuild these boats or just this one? Nice job, you did all the basics that need to be addressed.

+John Beasley Thanks. I've also refit my own Pearson Triton and numerous other similar boats. You can see my own boat here: www.atomvoyages.com/gallery/video-gallery/361-pearson-triton-atom-refit-part-1.html

by the way I have watched your Atom videos about 10 times and borrowed ideas for my own boat. That is an absolutely beautiful boat. I see a lot of these Triton 28's on the market, are the hulls holding up well? They look like the perfect boat to me.

+John Beasley The hulls have held up perfectly. But these old boats at some point need the wood rudders, pintles and gudgeons replaced, and often a deck recore. Other issues come up that are similar on most other boats of this vintage.

Who is the manufacture of the flexible water tank? I am trying to decide between this and the configuration you did on the Alberg 30. My boat (Hunter 40) has a plastic liner and a flex tank would be easier but your whole A30 configuration is exactly what I ultimately want. Thanks in advance.

+Perry Hockaday I replied to the tank question somewhere earlier but missed yours. I don't recommend this Plastimo flexible tank any longer because some of them have leaked after a short time. The more expensive Vetus tanks are better but still have the potential to leak.

the plastimo's fail often.

how do the vertical supports for the mast beam tie into the hull? did you put any kind of a pad under the supports?
@atomvoyager9 жыл бұрын
+Gene Roll The added vertical and horizontal pieces of oak were glued and screwed to the existing beam and bulkheads. The bulkheads transfer the load to the hull and deck. Nothing else was needed and the original beam was still in good condition so this just added support to a potentially weak area.
