Back On The Tools
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 лип 2024
- With the Lynsey B back on the water the plan was to some sea trials and then get back to work. However, with northerly winds producing some heavy swell off the East Lothian coast, the plan had to change. Also Barry had made a bit of a 'Boo-Boo' when he fitted the new deck wash pump, he forgot to fit the earthing straps. So it was back out with the tool kit once again!
Barry also takes you for a walk around the harbour. - Навчання та стиль
I can appreciate how much work / maintenance has to be done with a boat. One needs to stay on top of it. Well done.
Hi Jim.
Thank you for your comment and support. 😁👌
Yeah, it's a lot of cost and time, but it's definitely well worth the doing, especially at sea.😁👌
All the best,sir.😁
Good work Barry, just another episode of never ending maintenance I guess. 😃
Hi Bob.
Oh, it never ends🙈🤣🤣🤣
The thing is, it's all cost too, not that handy when we've spent all winter ashore.🙈
All the best, Buddy.😁
Hi Barry it was nice to meet you at the harbour a couple of weeks ago, good to see that you managed to get all your jobs done! In Holland we use Linseed oil with siccative as a preservative on metal parts of engines etc. as it is enviromental friendly and easy to use.
Hi Sander.
It was wonderful to meet you too.
Sorry I couldn't talk any longer. Everything that week was time critical 🙈🤣🤣🤣
Oooo, now that's a handy tip, thank you, I do love using environmentally products as much as I can when you own a boat.
I'll certainly look into that.😍😁👌
Thank you so much for this lovely message.
Have a great week
All the very best.😉👍
Hell of a lot of work Barry, hopefully the weather changes soon, was up in Dunbar other week never seen so many creels 😢back in the water soon 🙏
Hi Danny.
As always, thank you for your comment, we really appreciate your support 😍😁👌
Yeah, that's nothing. You should have seen it after Storm Babet. You couldn't move on the pier for gear.🙈🙈🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣
All the very best, bud.😉👍
Barry the maintenance never ends when you own a boat let alone a working boat 👍.
Hi Richard.
Thank you so much for your comment. We really appreciate your support 😍 😁 👌
You are also quite right. It does never end. It doesn't stop a grumpy Scotsman complaining about it because that's all like he feels like he's done since the boat went in the water the 1st time.🙈🙈🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's just boats, bud, always wanting and needing the attention of the skipper/owner.🤣🤣🤣🤣
All the very best.😁
Great vlog Barry 👌 you will get there m8💪
Thank you, bud. I'm sure we will.💪🦞🦞🦞🦀🦀🦀🤞🙏😁👌
Barry "your a man of many talents" is there anything you can't do! "Apart from changing the weather" lol
Another enjoyable watch and hopefully the weather will be kind to you sooner rather than later and you'll get out to catch some lobsters 🦞
Take Care Skipper 👍
Hello Peter.
As always, thank you so much for your kind comment and your support. You certainly have a way of bringing a smile to my grumpy face😍😁👌 so I really do thank you for that.
Yeah, the weather's a subject in itself just now, with more sea winds coming any day now🙈🌬🌊
The men are totally fed up with it, which is really understandable.
I hope you have a wonderful week ahead.
All the very best, sir.😉👍
Thanks Barry for this latest Vlog. Maintenance and jobs so important. Pity you didn't get out for sea trials - we'll all just have to be patient ! Anyway it gives those lobsters a bit more time for growing ! Those ones that are a couple of mm's out will be just ready !
Hi Peter.
That is a wonderful way to look at this scenario that we're stuck in. Love it, bud.😍😁👌
Let's hope you're right, and after this really long winter, we get a bumper of a summer.🤞🙏🦞🦞🦞🦀🦀🦀🤪🤪🤪🤪😁👌
Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend.
All the very best.😁
Hopefully the weather gods will be nice to you and you can get out and get your cereals in the water to start getting some of the money back in your pocket.
Hi Ivor.
Thank you so much for your kind comment and support. It means the world to us 😍😁👌
Yeah no change for this week, all easterlys instead of northerly, which is still bad for us.
I think it's going from winter right into summer this year🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's still only 5 degrees here🙄🙈🥶🥶🥶🤣🤣🤣
Enjoy your weekend.
All the best.😁
glad i got brass pipes lol ;-) nice Vlog mate enjoyed it.
See, bud, I knew they should be brass.😁😁😁🤪👌
Do you think Beta is cheaping out on parts🙄🙄🙄🙈🙈🙈
They way of the world these days.🙄🙄🙄
@@onemanandhisboat like modern cars mate they make parts to be replaceable and to wear out so you need to buy from them. you can prob invest and get them made in brass if you keep getting issues. :-)
we have a ford kuga and the read diff failed a second hand unit 2k+ all parts are from Ukraine. i went to landy place and they made the tools rebuilt it for £600 good as new
@technicstim I'll probably go that Rd.
Maybe try and make them myself.
I have the pipe, all I need is a bender and a flair kit😁👌
Gday mate i was wondering if the seal on your filter had let go sometimes to much pressure can destroy the rubber gasket but your saying you have found it so that puts that theory to bed . Anyway maintenance is a never ending job we are coming into winter here so it will be disconect batteries top up tanks with stabil fuel and covers over until we get some good weather again take care .
Hey buddy boy.
Yeah, I am full of useless information, bud.🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣 sometimes, I wonder if it makes sense to me, never mind for you guys to interpret 🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oooo, winter...terrible time of the year.🥶🌬🌊😞
Good luck with getting prepared, bud.
Hope you have a great weekend.
All the very best.😁
Lucky you 'forgot' to earth that or you might not have noticed that paint coming off. You seem to have everything but a portable 'tent/canopy' to keep you dry.
🤣🤣🤣 yeah, I got away with that 1 just.🙈🙈🙈 phew 🤪🤪🤪🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, it's all my own fault, too much in a hurry🙄 with age, theirs supposed to come wisdom.
Not in this case🙈🤣🤣🤣
Hope you have a great weekend.
All the best. 😁
Hi Barry, does the harbour dry out on all low tides or is it just on a big set of springs, you must need to be time your days work carefully if that's so, your getting better weather now than we are down in the southwest, soon be time to get the girl working !!
Hi Rick.
Thank you for your comment and support 😍😁👌
Yes, the old harbour dries out every tide. The new harbour is nearly dry in the spring tides, so timings are critical. You should have seen it when I had the bigger boat. 2.5 hours after the bottom of the tide, before we can get back into the new harbour 🙈🙈🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So yeah, I'm glad I have the GM21 now. It doesn't draw as much depth.🤣🤣🤣🤣
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
All the best.😁
Baz what will happen to all those busted creels.
Hi Laura.
Thank you for your comment and question.
The damaged creels will be repaired, and the ones beyond saving will probably get stripped down and then taken to a disposal site.
I hope that answers your question 😁
Have a great weekend.
All the best.😁
Barry I may be wrong but I thought you had to use tinned wire on a boat for electrics 🤔
Hi Robbie.
You are quite correct, tinned wire all the way for running your electrics, however earthing you can use normal earthing wire ( the thicker the better), but it all depends on preference and how deep your pockets are as tinned isn't cheap.🙈😬😁👌
Thank you so much for your comment.
All the best.😁😉👍
could you do a video on how to wrap the steel creels with rope and rubber , i see the video on jeffs channel but its far to fast for me to see how its done clearly
Hi bud.
Unfortunately, we'll be building wooden pots from now on, bud. So doubt we'll be doing a vlog on that....but you never can tell, I might do some steel ones down the line to sell, so I can never say never.🤣🤣🤣
Sorry if this is not the answer you're looking for.😬🙈
All the best.😉👍
@@onemanandhisboat when will the videos of the wooden creel making be uploaded?
Just a surgestion do you think it would help to coat all non coated parts with wax oil that stuff stops rust
Hi Steve.
Thiers a possibility that may work, that that stuff it sticky and when the engine bay warms up, we'll, you'll going to be in a right old mess just doing your engine bay checks.😁👌
Good suggestion, though, bud.😉👍
Yep if it's not SS/Brass/Bronze/Copper/Plastic then paint it. If you've got some paint to spare then paint the SS/Brass/Bronze/Copper/Plastic 😂😂😂😂😂
All this for a few lobsters 😂😂 bless ya. I live on a Narrowboat and I've had to dislocate a few joints in the engine compartment.
Oh Baz that last sequence was so good, what a great community the sea fishing community is busy preparing for the new season. Bless you all, fish and chips especially lobsters and crabs can be expensive I just hope you all are justly rewarded in your efforts.
Hi Mike.
Thank you for your very kind comment.
Yup, you're so right, especially when folks are near the sea.
It's amazing how quickly things get corroded when at sea.
Hope you're having a good few adventures on the narrow boat.
Love watching the usual suspects for that genre.😍❤️😁👌
All the very best.😁
