Part 21 - Boat Window Replacement - Canvas Boat top with old cracked windows
After a VERY long break from this channel, I'm back. Starting with replacing the dried out, cracking vinyl windows in my canvas boat top. Sometimes referred to as "Eisenglass", it's not all that difficult to replace - and I show how I do it in this video. The sewing machine that I use is a vintage Singer 15-91 gear drive unit, using a leather needle to punch through the window vinyl.
I also give a short update on some other plans for the boat (including possible plans for an engine/drive upgrade), and a quick "life update" of why I've been away so long!

    Find me a video that's right to the point and it's actually really useful great job. I'm doing one of my son's car. I've done these before but I thought I'd review it anyway. Nowadays they sell the whole housing so you don't have to just replace the pump portion and because the cars are over 20 years old that makes sense just to get rid of that old plastic anyway. Like you say, the plastic is brutal and pulling out the lines. I've had things break and crack so great idea to be super careful

    I'm currently redoing the interior on a '77 220 Cuddy. Have been picking through your videos and haven't found much about the flotation foam. Did you pour in new foam? I've been trying to determine if Searay engineered these so that the foam was part of the structural integrity of the boat, since the stringer/floor support system don't appear to be designed, or built, with that intent.

    Excellent video. Only complaint is you didn't show the actual removal of the assembly. It appears that your lines are oriented the same as mine. The angled relief in the lower tub does not seem to be providing clearance for one of the lines coming off of that T. Just going to cut it, I think...

    • @zero_to_floating8338
      @zero_to_floating8338 Рік тому

      It's not free - or super cheap - that's for sure, but the materials cost is nowhere near to what a new boat would be. I wouldn't be able to afford the cost of a new boat... If I had to pay somebody to do the work for me, that would be a different situation (or if I put an actual dollar value on my time). It simply wouldn't be worth it.

    • @zero_to_floating8338
      @zero_to_floating8338 Рік тому

      I used exterior plywood. Nothing fancy. Many people will tell you that you need to use marine plywood. If I was building a wood boat, that would be true. As it is, the real difference between marine plywood and regular exterior plywood is the lack of voids in the marine ply - important in a wood boat, not an issue being the “core” in a glass boat. Both types of wood use waterproof glue, both will rot just as fast if left exposed to water.

    One drawback to epoxy is that it is not U/V resistant. Used without a top coat to protect it it will start to break down in a year or two. So it is not a good coating for wood that is out of doors unless it is coated with a U/V resistant varnish or such for a clear finish. Like any clear finish it will require a lot of maintenance.

    You should wear a mask working with rotten wood like that. You're breathing spores and who knows what else. I have a '77 SRV 240 flybridge, bought for a project. Plan on rebuilding the transom and changing to a higher horsepower outboard (will free up a lot of interior storage and be quieter - and more reliable). I don't have your kind of rot but I'm expecting a lot of work.

Thank you for this explanation about the different kinds of resin. I did a small boat already completely inside and outside with unwaxed epoxy (now i know). With this boat i have to do now i used a lot of west system witch is very expensive compared to the normal expoxy. I wil use this for the stringers and waterproofing the wood. Thank you!
