Camping up a Munro is a challenging thing to do and I would only do it in the right conditions. Even though conditions were perfect it brings other problems like insects, sources of water.

      Totally not my preferred type of music. But I loved it too. Such a complex voice needs a better mic, but the guitar was captured well. I found the performance vaguely reminiscent of a bootleg vinyl album I once had, of Nico singing with the Velvet Underground. What a breathtakingly beautiful boat, I had to press pause a few times, and gaze in awe. I never really liked full-length keels before, partly because of reputed issues with docking maneuverability, but that little gem looks like it would turn easily.

      @sssiman Рік тому

      Good question. Time and luck. I bought her unseen and with a survey that was 20 years old. I would only buy if the boat was in the water, sailing and with a good motor. Its better then buying a house and you'll see the world(well maybe part of it). But you'll know when you know. Good luck and see you out there

    Hi just an observation, why have you mixed calking both cotton and oakum I have only by preference used oakum but if I've had a loose softwood craft I would cotton above water only , but everyone has their own preferences, cheers for now

    • @sssiman
      @sssiman Рік тому

      Good observation Brian! Solid name also.. The reason for the strand cotton is that the seams where to wide to loop with oakum. So twisting with a drill you can get the right amount of cotton in without blowing out the back. Not ideal but I was done with planking

    • @brianshields7137
      @brianshields7137 Рік тому

      @@sssiman in that case I would have tended to spline the real bad seems and use untwined oakum yes you can get buldge out on the inside but always neat with a spline . I use a jig on the sawbench to knock out splines glue one side only and tape it in this still let's the planks move and if needed it still can be calked in later years
