The frequency of your videos is less than others, but the content is way better than most. Some people just pump out crap, and once and a while they have something good. Having consistently good content keeps me watching.
Man, you guys work fast. I'm doing nothing near as sophisticated and it has taken me all winter to do my Catalina 30 electrical panel. I need to get hopping. I'm like you, the mess behind the panel was something I could not live with. So I took pictures and drew out where everything went and bought new wire, switches, meters, etc. Bought a nice (but inexpensive) label maker and I'm replacing everything. Will send some pics when I'm done. BTW, there is a Catalina 30 FB page. Lots of good people, with lots of good advice. Have fun! I enjoy watching you guys work. I need to do the same!
Great to see you still have enthusiasm for detail on your project boat! Detail takes time, but the rewarding feeling upon accomplishment is worth it! Carry on, mate!
A trick I learned for epoxy from the “Tips from the Shipwright” channel is to cut the bristle length of chip brushes by a 1/3 to 1/2. Makes them much more useful for spreading epoxy.
Louis Sauzedde is the “Shipwright“. He’s a hellacious guy and he knows every trick in the book when it comes to working on and restoring old boats, especially wooden (and epoxy) boats. He’s produced dozens of amazing videos outlining tools, techniques and fixes, and has three series that describe designing and building a dinghy and a skiff as well as his recent trip to Chile to research boatbuilding techniques for their fishing fleets in association with a local Chilean university. Amazing treasure of a guy from a small fishing village, Wickford, Rhode Island on the Narragansett Bay.
I have an Alberg 35...also have the original boom with the roller furling on it... I tried it with mine, I think you'll find that it doesn't work well. Someone told me you need a sail specially cut for it but this is the second boat I've had with it, both times slab reefing worked much better.
I lost one of my corner pieces on my eyebrow and am trying to determine a technique to fabricate a replacement. I though even of stacking up some 1/8 wood layers, cutting one at a time and epoxying together, or using this as a template. Maybe even use a softwood since each to carve. Also, though at taking a piece of teak and jigsawing the outer perimeter of the piece and then use a sander to form the piece. Any thoughts?
What did you and your brother do for work? Bc you guys are like Jack if all trades its honestly amazing going through and watching every video. You have every tool and ask the knowledge lol. Great job im impressed you actually did it
We have done a bit of everything. Our main work for the last few years has been video production and photography. We don't come from a lot of money so if we needed something done we had to do it ourselves. I think that taught us to be pretty handy. But for the most part the boat has been our teacher
When you put plugs back in over screws, make sure you line up the wood grain lines. It adds that extra care people like your Dad will appreciate. Honestly.
I'M SOOOOOO Jealous , LMAO in a Good way, Would've Loved to have the work shop and tools you have at your age !!! Even NOW at my age 54 LMAO. Right on Little Brother - Peace !!!!
Awesome video. Lots of nice touches. Looking at your lake boat I see you have a British Seagull engine, is that a Forty Plus with a recoil starter (rope)? I have the same engine with the painted blue steel fuel tank. Starts on the first or second pull. That engine should run for a few more generations.
your Y axel is fucked that is why is inconsistent. I would replace all the wooden molds bits that you did try to save ,they just looking very bad mate.
I commend your efforts on this rebuild ! But the quality of your work, the knowledge you possess on marine carpentry, marine electric & mechanical work is so poor I will no longer subscribe to your channel.
We're all learning here. I never claimed to be an expert and am not. But I would be interested to know what was SO wrong about the work done in this video.
Seriously, if you’re so disgusted that you had to unsub, I’m damn curious what made you subscribe in the first place. Sheesh. Trolls take things SO seriously these days...

Thanks Tyler!
Pretty nice that you guys got the Catalina to cruise around on while your project boat is out of the water. Keep up the good work.

Thanks! We will check out that group. Good luck with project!
You should consider using a feather joint for the repairs to the broken pieces. You'd have a much stronger joint, and it would look professional.
Great to see you still have enthusiasm for detail on your project boat! Detail takes time, but the rewarding feeling upon accomplishment is worth it! Carry on, mate!
Nice work all round.👍⛵️
Advanced boatbuilding!
Epic episode guys!Thanx!
Thanks for posting I enjoy watching
Excellent vid guys, that CNC machine is pretty bad ass.
We had a Victoria. I enjoyed sailing that boat more than any other we have or had.

That would probably make it easier. I'll give it a try. Thanks

I now have CNC router envy !!

I tried it out a few times and it seemed to work well. It was very slow though.
You should do some teak decking for the deck
Very crafty.

Great video!
"Of course I dropped it though and broke this piece". That's some M Night Shyamalan shit.
Looks great dude! Great progress.
Thanks bro!

nice Seagull outboard :)
Should aligned the grain of the wood on the screw bungs! Attention to detail. :)
I know! I get a little lazy sometimes

... provided you mix the fuel and oil at the prescribed 8:1 ratio. Sounded a little dry in the video.
Thanks! I believe it is the 40 plus. Cool little motor.
Have you mentione what type of cnc you got? If so, I missed it. Thanks for the episodes.
It's a Shapeoko XL. Made by Carbide3D
Catalina? When did you get a Catalina?
Did I miss some vids?
Yeah check out the previous video! It was a pretty crazy circumstance.
@@SailBros Wow- dunno how I missed that, didn't get the notification somehow.
electric panel looks great! can I order one?
Sure! Send us an email. sailbros89 at gmail.com
You've changed your logo, and I've missed your last three posts. I did not recognize them.
Hey y'all is this Lake Conroe?
It is lake Sam Rayburn
Where can you get that material you cnc’ed?
I got it from invetables.com and carbide3d.com also carries it. It's called two-tone HDPE.
Thanks!
