    Born too late to explore the world. Too early to explore space. Born just in time to see Mads finally fill in the holes on the goddamn nav station. I've been watching since you were just patching up all the new work in the bilge. It's been quite the treat! Keep it up!

    It's New Years Eve for me! You must get some stick from other viewers over the Nav Station, I'm not so demanding, what you achieve is nothing short of spectacular... I've had some issues with water proof ply that wasn't, never again. That was a WPB grade which is meant to be waterproof (the W!) and wasn't and lasted less than a week in light rain and moist conditions. Like yours, our boat has no particle board and is all "marine" grade ply. I have an offcut left out in the open for 4 years and it's still immaculate, thank you Sweden! Athena is looking great Mads, so, Happy New Year to you both and looking forward to more DIY and sailing adventures from you both, all the very best!

    Wow, Mads! It's incredible to see the progress you've made on the aft cabin. From patching up the bilge to now finishing the nav station, you've shown an amazing dedication to your boat. The dust from sanding must have been quite a challenge, but it's all worth it to see the upgrades for Ava. Wishing you both a wonderful holiday season and a fantastic year ahead.

  • @robda7195

    Have a good year may I suggest you take the corner off the teak in the rear cabin as you'll either, end up ripping something you try getting out where it catches, rip it off when something catches it, or slicing yours or avas head open. Otherwise very spiffy
    Ps you might want to look at updating the intro as your cruising full time now and have started your journey

    The spiffied up nav station will quickly become unspiffy from being rubbed and knocked into over time. Maybe make the "leg" extend all the way up to the top out of hardwood or teak that can be re-spiffied with just some oil or varnish without needing to be repainted?

Thanks for the pleasure you bring me and so many others, may you have health, love, and time to enjoy them for many years.

    Hey Mads.... D'ya think that it might be time to update your intro. I would've thought that a cross-Atlantic journey would constitute an adventure in itself... Even if you're planning a journey across another ocean entirely most would say that the cruising upon Athena has already well and truly begun.... Oh and before I forget (raises goblet) Here's to you and yours during this Yule time and New years. Happiness, Health, and Good fortune! Prost!

  • @howardwoolley926
    @howardwoolley926 4 місяці тому

    Hi Mads
    Marine Ply main difference between other types apart from better quality woods and glue is the sheets all have matched weight per panel, ie your boat will float evenly on keel line as one side is not heavier than the other if you build it completely out of ply but this doesn’t matter if individually using it on your projects

  • @mikeskelly2356
    @mikeskelly2356 5 місяців тому

    A nice finishing touch for the Nav station pole would be to use that '77' spray to adhere some 1 or 1½ cm three strand synthetic rope wound around it. Besides 'spiffing' it up, the rope would give a much more secure hand hold in rough seas, and being synthetic, it should stay clean...

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to Mad and Eva. Mad, for a much as we all love you, your channel has migrated successfully to a partnership and we miss seeing updates from Eva. Don’t get me wrong, the fixing of the nav station holes is extremely appreciated, but a little balance is needed, in my humble opinion 😉. Again, all my very best for 2024 to both of you.
