But 3 years ago, so a rather late suggestion.

It. it turns out the engine has to go, you may be able to recover some value by parting it out. Yanmar spares are expensive.

Hey looking at one of these, glad to see you somewhat standing up, cause I'm trying to get a sense of the headroom. You said you're 6"1" looks like just under that huh? I'm 6' and so many 28' range I cant even stand up in . . . Are those setees under 6' long too, do you know? Thanks, and cheers whatever you're up to.

This boat is a total POS. I love it.

Sam Holmes would approve of the hole drilling 😁

I love how you use peaceful, chill music for such an astronomically pain in the ass task. 😄

My friend, it seems you don't like to make plan in advance so your work seems to be chaotical. It's a pity cause in the end it's you the one trying to find where the disassembled parts are and which one fit where...

Hope you were able to continue with the project, the SC28 is on my short list, a really beautiful boat. Aloha 🤙

Amazing you’re doing it alone. Props!

I've heard of that keel design, a full keel minus a chunk in the back referred to as the "Brewer bite" Ted Brewer was apparently the first to start removing parts of a full keel or long keel boat. I could be wrong, but either way some people call it the Brewer bite! Very nice boat btw... Are you aware of Kevin Boothby, a fairly famous UA-cam sailing guy? He sails same boat but gaffe rigged and no engine. His channel is called how to sail oceans, he's good!

I’m not a sailor, which is something I want to do with my retirement. I’m very impressed with using the boom to hoist out the motor. Is this a standard practice when removing your engine?

Still working on the boat?

Gave up eh?

I would have used a hose and siphoned it.

You’ve got one hell of a project on your hands buddy…but she’s a fine yacht…these boats are deserving of the love you’ll give her…i love the “ brass” dorades…I believe you’ve got a good one for this undertaking.. looking forward to watching your progress…have you discovered “starwhite” UA-cam channel?…beautiful westsail 28 refurbish …the guy did some very cool things to his…

I am considering this for my Westsail 32. Glassing the edge over once the caprail is removed. I know what it's like refitting by yourself. Kudos. Can't wait to see more episodes.

sitting on the fence about buying a 31 SC. I looked at it and it appears in good shape. It's just small. I plan on spending months at a time on it. On the other hand it would be easier to manage and handle then something bigger...what are your thoughts, SC owners?

Just binge watched all 16 episodes and subscribed. That's a huge amount of work you've done! I really like the boat too. Look forward to new episodes. Thanks.

Always amazed me why people selling a boat don't spend time washing it up before showing.

Loving the videos! Hope you get her for either free or really cheap!

I'm will be buying one this spring I will be sailing it back to va then going to haul for refit not to bad off shape she just made the trip south

Did you ever consider taking the mast down before taking out the bulkheads and removing the deck to hull fittings? I would be worried about the potential damage to the other boats least not the strain on the deck from being unsupported below.

Just finished all episodes, looking forward to your next. Know you must be strapped for time as you work. Loving what you're doing.

Never heard of the colour 'Creepy Pink' before 🤣 loved it. Know about things dropping in the bilge. Under my Yanmar, it's almost an irretrievable zone. Ingenuity with a variety of implements required, so prevention is my first task whenever I'm working on it - cardboard, rags, etc. Fun times.

Even watching this made my stomach turn. Did you expect a total gut of the interior when you bought? Cudos, and keep posting please. Thanks, Elaine

🤣 your surprise when the cabin side shelf came off 🤣 wow, so much rot, hope you have lots of ventilation and masks.

Thanks for this. Im buying a 1981.

Hah, 500th subscriber 👍 along for the journey. I own a S&S30 built 1979, similar to Yankee 30. Interested to see what you do and change.

Hold onto the tank you can use it to make a mold for a new one plus the way it sat in there you might be able to drop the floor plus not loose any water storage capacity

Посмотрел все Твой выпуски, Удачи Тебе , терпения и денег на восставленные яхты. Важно что корпус целый, остальное можно сделать. Что с двигателем ? Поздравления из Москвы

I can see you don't know the price of wood these days!

I just finished binge watching your whole series of videos. Very interesting. From the end of 2004 to the beginning of 2006 I did a major refit on a Cape Dory 28. It is a boat similar to yours in some regards. My interior did not have the extensive rot that yours had but I wanted to rearrange the it into what I thought was a better layout for my purposes. My deck rot was problematical but not insurmountable. One thing you might consider is bonding the hull to deck together on the inside of the boat. Then you could remove the outward turning flange on the outside and bond the hull to deck together on the outside as well. A monumental project but what the hay, you're already doing a monumental project. I did this on my boat and was very satisfied with the results. 15 years ago I did not have a digital video camera and my early digital camera had only limited capacity. But I did take a whole series of digital photos. They are now on my website and pretty much show the entire project, beginning to end. You might find my interior layout of interest. As for your Yanmar. I think they have wet liners which would make rebuilding the engine pretty easy. As for the trans mission ???. The problem is the cost of parts and labor invested vs. the cost of a new motor and trans. Even so the rebuild would probably be only around 1/3 the cost of a new motor / trans. And your labor is free...right ;<} Keep it going. May your trouble melt like lemon drops.

Typically there are two type of bronze used on or in boats. One is silicon bronze normally used for fasteners, screws, nut and bolts. This is the stuff that usually shows the green patina or in other terms Verdigris. It is the common name for a green pigment obtained through the application of acetic acid to copper plates or the natural patina formed when copper, brass or bronze is weathered and exposed to air or seawater over time. The other type is manganese bronze. This alloy is used often for castings like portlights, gudgeons and pintles and other types of hardware. It usually shows little or no verdigris. May your troubles melt like lemon drops.

I have a 10K electric motor from Thunderstruck Motors. I drive the motor with 2 48v batteries I made from Nissan Leaf batteries. Every time I need to use the electric drive I wish I had a big ole stinking diesel. I wish the very best for you.

Dude, I am refitting the exact same boat !! Not quite as rough shape but same water damaged floor and berth bottoms!

Great Content bro!!👍 Keep up the awesome work!❤️🙌😊

Really enjoying your UA-cam channel, do you have any concerns about the hull becoming malformed with all the interior stripped away and no supports?

Going to have to get creative with this repair! **the wind was *blowing* the dust way from my neighbor....

Thanks for sharing, I agree best place for that tank is in the bin, no rot bulkhead material is the go if you can afford it, saw "Spoondrifter" make a hard bimini out of PVC sheeting and it turned out fabulous, didn't even have to paint the thing, all boats should be build so you can dunk the whole thing and just dry it out and go, ie no @#$% timber it all rots unless meticulously sealed, great job, all the best from Aus, Al

I wasn't sure if my hull was strong enough to completely strip the interior like this. That's why I did one side at a time. In hindsight, I think it probably is. Nothing moved, not even a little bit when I pulled the starboard side apart. Striping the complete interior seems like the way to go, I would go this route next time if I ever get into a second major refit. Love the videos ceep then coming!

Very impressive - you're really going to town! I give you a ton of credit, I've done lots of rehabbing but I could never totally strip something down and start over from scratch. You must have great vision. One question I have - were you worried at all about cracking the gelcoat on the exterior of the hull when you were hammering and prying out the old tabbing? Thanks for sharing!

Leave a comment!

You should quit while you’re ahead

Get a bilge pump

Nice bronze portlights. Maybe the only thing worth keeping in that old boat.... but you know with her being so much lighter now that sailing will be better than ever and you might want to refit to minimal weight standards. Epoxy and foam boards help in that regard...

Oh yes, leaky chainplates, I've been there. It's looking good! Are you planning make some adjustments to the interior space? Or just put things back the way they were? My project though I might get creative with the interior layout, but nothing is set in stone yet.

Awesome work! The fun part is done. From experience. Cheers!
