This is my type of Huub video, lots of boat maintenance and boat living things that need to be done. This video once again highlights the effort and energy boat living takes that most of us take for granted, whether it is the difficulty getting fuel, potable water, or the simplest of hardware. Thanks for sharing.

That technique is similar to the old British house wives of the early 1900, when all washing was done in a dolly tub with a wooden pole with 3 prongs on the base. Which when pushed into the washing you turn the pole to agitate the washing, I’m sure there’s a video on KZbin to demonstrate this.

Laundry. Get a large strong bucket that has a strong clamping lid. Cut a small hole in the center of the lid, big enough for a bathroom plunger handle. Get a new bathroom plunger. Add water, soap, and laundry. Put in the plunger. Close the lid. Churn butter until your laundry is done. Repeat with clear water for a rinse cycles. Buy a laundry ringer / roller to drain the water. Hang to dry.

@@leecowell8165 I learned it from a warrant officer while deployed during Desert Shield/ Desert Storm. I think she found a bucket with a lid on it in a shop and went from there. The only issue with any of it was the incredible sandstorms. Our uniforms became the color of the dirt. The water became mud and took many cycles before there was any transparency to the water again. We rinsed and hung the uniforms up in the sun and my uniform was bone dry in fifteen minutes. But it looked clean and like a uniform again. I put it on and slapped my chest... and a cloud of dust billowed from the cloth. That was one dirty environment. The bucket was maybe a two gallons size and only held one set of uniform. That is why I said get as large as you can,

Regarding unfamiliar mechanisms in tight spaces. I use a selfie stick to get my phone in to have a look or a flashlight and small mirror on a stick. Pros have an endoscope with a light. Fairly cheap and photos of complex things so I remember. Also the magnet on a stick or string saves a lot of lost nuts and bolts

I often wonder why not many boaters keep a activated charcoal inline filter that they can just connect to the end of hose water feed before into portable water containers. You coukd even make some sort of generic connections on the end of water filter that would adapt to any hose by using maybe a quick clamp or normal hose clamps.
@HuubVlogs6 ай бұрын
We have multiple filters between the tank and the water tap. But don't show that every day on youtube hehe
@Useless_Knowledge076 ай бұрын
@@HuubVlogs Yeah, I was just thinking of filtering the water right from the source which keeps the container clean and prolong the life of the filters on the boat. It was just a thought. I've seen boaters ending up contaminating thier water system on the boat even after they confirmed the water tasted fine prior to filling the containers and transporting them to the boat or even when they bring the boat to the source. Some people even had cyst growing on their skin due to contaminated water.

Yes. Rosie Swale did it on their round Cape Horn voyage, as seen in "Children of Cape Horn" book. However, dishwash liquid formula helps breaks down the negative impact of salt water on clothes, and also does an ok job of washing hair with salt water. The big question is, why when you're in the tropics, are you wearing clothes anyway.? This is the 21st century surely. Don't look, if it embarrasses you.!! 😮 Very strange.!
