In response to people who say that "you make videos to make money" ... and why not! We all get a lot of value from watching your videos: I hope that you do get some return for all your hard work!
This is a brilliant job. I like the fact that the doomsters have been dealt a body blow . They have no idea how much work and expense goes into this major project . Hats off .
The awful mess made by “professionals” in 1980s is probably why the doomsayers were so negative. Almost anyone else doing this project would have failed long ago.
Absolutely...they are doing a fantastic job...I'm amazed at how they work together working out each problem as it arrises and just get on with it and have fun while they are doing it....👍👍👍
Hi guys, First of all, ignore the negativity from trolls, some people are just born miserable. Secondly, I'm originally from Widnes, on the banks of the Mersey, where i grew up, on, in, and around boats, and as I'm sure you'll know, boating gets into your blood. I love your show, it is the week's highlight for me. I miss boating and your show takes me back to some happy memories. Anyhow, keep up the good work, keep the laughs coming, and let's watch your various boating projects bloom. Good luck guys, all my best wishes going forward .
You know, I fell terrible that some of these comments bother you. Ship Happens is a fun, insightful and educational (heck, I've learned things) channel and rebuilding Sarinda is very much worth the effort!! You guys are awesome!!
We are human, and some comments do Hurt, when your working your bollocks off, pouring all your blood, sweat, tears and money into something and then some idiots try to pull you down all the time, it does hurt! Simon doesn't read any comments on here as it really effected his mental health at the beginning, some people only get joy by making others feel like crap!
@@ShipHappensUK That is totally terrible to read, I think he does a great job, I think the few idiots making bad comments don't add up to all the people making nice comments or giving their best suggestions and loads of people who watch but don't comment. Sometimes I do wonder why you 2 are doing things a certain way, but learned by watching your channel you do everything with a plan. And seeing you creating the deck beams no just proves you are going forward with steady steps .. While you were doing the front stringers and stuff and I saw the tops of the planks it scared me, but that's also proved to be repairable .. its soo much fun seeing you 2 work, making fun of each other and still get all that work done. Its a total inspiration.
@@ShipHappensUK The people making bad comments about what you are doing should try restoring an old wooden boat!! I think you are both doing a bloody good job, wish I had the money to buy and restore Kupara!!! Greetings from Mark in New Zealand
Negative people are so darn negative! You two are a breath of fresh air! As Simon once said, if someone built it, someone can fix it! Or words to that effect😊
Ignore the dissenters, they can never see just how much effort you put into this project for little, comparative financial reward. In any case, what does it matter? You are entertaining us every week and slowly but surely bringing Sarinda back to her former glory, if not better than original. Keep up the good work. ❤
You don't have to explain yourselves to anyone, especially those who are so obviously jealous of your lifestyle. I love your videos because you touch the realm of boating I used to be a part of.
Gday Crew... Great episode guys , cant wait to see it all fitted up...nice job. To the money complainer,,, Im guessing you pay the boss to let you work . Respect....!
I have learned a lot about scarf joints and lamination from English boat building. In the U.S., when I need a bigger piece of wood, I go out back and cut down a bigger tree.
Youse guys are truly an inspiration, I never found a counterpart the would work with me, instead of against me,( married twice ) that is really worth it's weight in gold...Sally forth-carry on and 'pip-pip- Tally Ho!
You two are certainly industrious.👍 Just one other comment, before laminating the beam, a stronger ‘join’ would be achieved if each strip was ‘primed’ with epoxy.😀👍
A suggestion from the extreme most cautious person following your project. I would take that beam out to Sarinda and find a way to thread it through the hull at the widest beam and lift it up against the deck. We know there will be sag in the existing deck beam - so there won't be a perfect match. But just for peace of mind given the great cost of both materials and labor - I would want to make that field check to confirm that the new deck beams match up with what Sarinda's original builders had in mind. 👍
Big beams making your shop feel small. I know that feeling well! Now that’s a nice jig setup. Running it through the planer and watching it come out all beautifully laminated on the other side is one of the best feelings. Good job guys!
I just not try to imagine the smell of that fresh wood, my uncle had a workshop for his company with loads of woodworking machines, I always loved the smell there and made some small money cleaning out the machines of saw dust :-) brings back good memories from my youth
Fantastic workmanship Simon & Gemma!! That deck beam would look amazing Laminated for sure Simon. You guys are doing such an awesome job with Sarinda. Wish I could afford to do more than just subscribe but the old age pension doesn't stretch too far these days.
The fact that you are restoring a great example of Britain's maritime history is amazing. Coupled with the great personal expense is even more amazing. It's a shame that you get negative comments from jealous and bitter people. Ignore the haters and be so proud of what you are achieving.
What ever you make from you tube ,you deserve. I'm amazed at how you've worked your way through the various processes. I look forward to a new episode ,every Saturday morning.
I agree with most others! You should be paid for supplying us with free entertainment! Not sure I understand what people are worried about or why they would even question it? Earn away! And if folks are willing to support you on other platforms like Patreon etc. All the power to you. It’s called business and commerce. It’s what makes the world go around! Good luck. Love the channel.
Fantastic first deck beam. Missing Gemma's hair but I understand the reason and it will be mostly grown out towards the end of the project. 100K subscribers is around the corner. Comment people...
Wax paper. Where you used parcel tape. I used wax paper with forms and epoxy. But I must say if the parcel tape works, you converted me to it. I so enjoy your videos and the woodworking. CHEERS
I wouldn't care if you were making millions out of these videos ,its just marvellously satisfying to see you two doing this work and saving Sarinda .And it is great entertainment
You are doing the correct method which I did not use. I got two methods on is using African mahogany solid planks and cut the radius only on the top beam. But I have also used very long Balu 10x10 6 m planks that are straight and I found that I could brace it in the center sufficient to make the radius. Good luck with your method
How dare commentor(s) acuse you of trying to make money off videos? They have no concept of how much the equipment and time is takes to produce a video. I wish you make a small fortune of money from the videos, because the two of you are top entertainers. I enjoy your style and personality. The videos are both entertaining and educational. And your work is going to be historic restoration of a notable motor vessel. Thank you.
I have been watching you since the day you bought Sarinda, and I love it, what don’t like is that nearly every video you feel the need to have a dig at people, or feel the need to retaliate against people for their negative comments, that just feeds that type of behaviour, I would really suggest not raising to them, your above that and all the people that don’t participate in negativity and there are thousands of us that love this channel, just ignore those people and don’t give them a platform.. ❤
Definitely keep the wood natural with just a couple coats of varnish. The grain is absolutely lovely. Besides, you can show others how much work the two of you have put into Saving Sarinda.
I truly look forward to your weekly submissions where the two of you demonstrate, explain in good detail, and educate us viewers about each step as you repair Sarinda, the new boatizza and the fishing derby boat. You continue to project a loving couple with a great sense of humor trying to tackle to huge undertakings which are well beyond our capabilities! Those "Debbie Downers" who criticize your motivations and make jealous snipes all the while you are entertaining people all over the world should have no place in your forum. JMHO... Keep it up and I will keep on supporting you the best that I can.
Wow! Stepping through the process of making all the right measurements just to make the proper form is mind-boggling. When Simon set the first laminated beam down on the ground, it 'rang' like a single piece of wood. Brilliant, guys!!
Definitely varnish those beams that one looks stunning. The variety and contrast in the wood will enhance the whole boat whilst showing the care and love you have put into every part.🤩❤
Fantastic explanation about the radius of the deck beam...didn't understand any of it 😂😂...and it went straight over my head ...maths and pattern development was always my weakest subject.. thankfully you both know what you are doing and making a fantastic job of your boat...thanks for the updates...👍👍
People who make such rude comments are people who are usually lazy jealous folks. That haven't realized if they put their hands to work and made an effort themselves they too can follow a dream but instead they'd rather be a critic and not give encouragement to others who work hard to follow their passions in life. I love what " ship happens "does to share their vision with us, I enjoy your videos every week. So please, keep them coming!
I'm well happy to see the progress and methods used to overcome the daunting tasks Sarinda's decay has set you with. It's become a "how to save yer boat" made for TV pg rated series with plenty of comedy. Keep up the good work, and the nay sayers can just bugger off elsewhere. 😊😊
Damn! I was hoping that you were making big bucks. You provide a steady source of enjoyment for 81+K subscribers. And it is no small task to film and edit everything. My advice to you is to keep enjoying what you are doing and don't feed the trolls. They just get off when you acknowledge them. Many thanks for all that you do.
Awesome job guys, that laminated beam turned out brilliantly and will easily distribute any load on it without any problems. Money, I thought you did it because you love tramping in mud, working on wind swept decks in howling gales and driving rain frozen to your bones….. silly me. Keep the faith guys, you’re videos are just down to earth and great value
The busiest talent you guys have is patience! Well maybe not. You have many other skills too. I just am amazed at how patient you both are in picking away at the renovation.
Ship Happens, use parcel tape, solid foam insulation and aerosol foam to make copy patterns of the parts that need replacing. Transfer the pattern to timber and the job's done.
From our brief meeting at the boat show I realise just how this project has changed your lives. I watch many videos of sailing, be it restoration, cruising or boat building. I’d love to be a Patreon to all of them but that’s just not possible. Following our meeting I’m now paying a monthly due. It’s not much but lumped in with all the others I hope it helps. It certainly is a small price to pay for the entertainment you bring. Keep up the good work.
Há anos não vejo a hora que chegue sexta feira, para que eu possa assistir o vídeo da semana. É mais que diversão, é também terapia , é remédio para as dores e sofrimento da vida , é muito bom poder acompanhar a evolução do seu projeto vibrar com suas conquistas se emocionar com suas dificuldades e alegrias e se sentir parte ainda que apenas como espectador das suas aventuras. O que vocês entregam não tem preço !!! Muito muito muito obrigado por nos proporcionar a oportunidade de poder participar dos seus sonhos e de estar junto com vocês nessa jornada. THANK YOU SHIP HAPPENS !!!
Not only am I fully entertained I am learning a lot about how to do what you guys do. If you can make money in the process more power to you! I like to watch … Keep up the Great Work!!
You could probably reduce the spring back when remove the lamination from the form is you left it a couple of days before removal. I used to laminate archery bow limbs and despite the epoxy being hard after overnight it definitely has not achieved its full cure which would be more like 48 hours at 20c. Most high strength lams are cured at 60degC for 8 to 12 hours and the cure times get exponentially longer as the temp reduces. You are doing a fantastic job and all the glue lam parts you are making are orders of magnitude stronger than the the originals.--- Graeme
You wouldn't think that it would be possible to be impressed by a wooden beam but I gotta say that is a really nice beam and I'm very impressed with the way it looks. Excellent work.
Simon added a new meaning to hair brush - so funny. You guys are great but Jemma definitely has the better hair between the two. I could care less if you both made a ton of money because y’all are restoring history and great effort and cost to you. In addition the entertainment value is priceless.
I love watching DIY refit/restoration videos of many subjects, but the videos I most look forward to are Ship Happens! You find creative ways to solve problems and have the best “can-do” attitude of any UA-camrs. But most of all, you’re so much fun to watch! Lovable, entertaining and funny and your husband/wife dynamic is just the most wholesome thing that I see on YT. Keep up the good work and we’ll keep watching out here in UA-camland!
Hi Guys, Great watching you do this work it brings back many memories of doing this type of form work in the past myself. Please please put the riving knife and overhead guard on to your panel saw. There is a lot of internal pressure in man-made boards and timber which can cause the material to pinch the blade and create kick back. I was a cabinet maker and it happened to me, even with the riving knife the kick back was enough to dislocate my left thumb so that it pointed back up my arm. As for the overhead guard well that speaks for itself. Be safe please! Your doing such a fantastic job on Serinda moving on so fast. Thank you for such interesting content.
By the way, good on you for doing what you’re doing there’s lots of people sit on their backside doing nothing. It’s only people like you getting up and doing something that keeps things like this alive so don’t worry what they say. Just keep doing it Michael for Hampshire
Well guy's another step forward in the process of what seamed an almost impossible task, and each step you make brings you closer to achieving your dreams
That looks great and reminds me of when I laminated my cabin top beams. As far as finishing (paint/varnish) the beams goes, it is much easier to paint/varnish them before you install them. A suggestion to improve mold release as you make more beams. Hair spray is polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), which is a very good water soluble release agent. So buy a few cans of cheap hair spray and spray the mold down between parts. Or you can just buy a jug of PVA and spray it on. One other suggestion is to use a notched trowel when you put the epoxy on. That will give a more uniform layer of epoxy and will also save on epoxy.

You are making entertainment, I think you should be paid more than most of the people on TV as you guys make far more watchable content.
Not to mention its education entertainment, not mind numbing amarican football where players get 100k to stand on the sideline 75% of a game
Not sign of sticky-back plastic or sticky tape.
I fully agree.
Agreed. This is far more fun to watch than most of the crap on live tv is, where people are actually paid millions!
In response to people who say that "you make videos to make money" ... and why not! We all get a lot of value from watching your videos: I hope that you do get some return for all your hard work!
Who says that? So ridiculous.
Wow people are idiots 🙄 I watch because I enjoy watching..if you didn’t make money then progress would be massively slower…more money the better 👍🏼
a great point.
I totally agree

You are so welcome!
I for one am not interested in how much you make from UA-cam. I'm here for the love of boats and the entertainment! For which I thank you both!
Gday Crew...
Great episode guys , cant wait to see it all fitted up...nice job.
To the money complainer,,,
Im guessing you pay the boss to let you work .
Respect....!
I have learned a lot about scarf joints and lamination from English boat building. In the U.S., when I need a bigger piece of wood, I go out back and cut down a bigger tree.
It amazes me how much the both of you are capable of achieving! Laminated is going to be your middle names!
those two are already laminated, you couldn't get a couple who are stronger together :)
Youse guys are truly an inspiration, I never found a counterpart the would work with me, instead of against me,( married twice ) that is really worth it's weight in gold...Sally forth-carry on and 'pip-pip- Tally Ho!
You two are certainly industrious.👍 Just one other comment, before laminating the beam, a stronger ‘join’ would be achieved if each strip was ‘primed’ with epoxy.😀👍
Each strip was primed with epoxy and them thicked epoxy was used.
@@ShipHappensUK Apologies - missed that.👍
Considering the interaction that most of us have with you guys, you make less than a cup of coffee a week. Here's to success.
A suggestion from the extreme most cautious person following your project.

Fantastic episode. The incredibly hard work going into these beams and the whole project is mindblowing but it will be so worth it in the end. X
Fantastic workmanship Simon & Gemma!! That deck beam would look amazing Laminated for sure Simon. You guys are doing such an awesome job with Sarinda. Wish I could afford to do more than just subscribe but the old age pension doesn't stretch too far these days.

Keep the faith! Remember this ... In order to have haters you have to be doing something! Otherwise they couldnt have an opinion on it!
You are doing the correct method which I did not use.
I got two methods on is using African mahogany solid planks and cut the radius only on the top beam.
But I have also used very long Balu 10x10 6 m planks that are straight and I found that I could brace it in the center sufficient to make the radius.
Good luck with your method

He is so practical and just works stuff out that baffles everyone else!
Great job on the former and first deck beam! You guys are the best! 👏👏
Thankyou to all the donators for making all this possible..Legends 👏👏
I’m impressed by that little planer. More impressed by what you guys are doing.
That beam looks fantastic

Any thinking person understands this is a labor of love of boats and each other. Keep up the great work
Some people wouldn't know where to start love, I wouldn't have a clue lol.
Ship Happens, use parcel tape, solid foam insulation and aerosol foam to make copy patterns of the parts that need replacing. Transfer the pattern to timber and the job's done.
Laminating your deck beams is a very sound plan far stronger system by far 👍
well done guys! a fantastic looking first beam!!
If you would clean up the squeezed out epoxy when it is still uncured it would be less sanding. You guys are amazing!
From our brief meeting at the boat show I realise just how this project has changed your lives. I watch many videos of sailing, be it restoration, cruising or boat building. I’d love to be a Patreon to all of them but that’s just not possible. Following our meeting I’m now paying a monthly due. It’s not much but lumped in with all the others I hope it helps.

Absolutely fantastic job on the beam. Will look great vanished I think,
templates that leo would be proud of, awesome job
Nicely done, Simon & Gemma! Your beam is a beautiful bit of nautical artwork.
Thank you! Cheers!

Bloody hell that template really gives one an idea of the beam of Sarinda.

I donot care how much you make it is worth it to me entertainment you guys work hard and deservr
The pony tail sweep🤣🤣🤣🤣
You could probably reduce the spring back when remove the lamination from the form is you left it a couple of days before removal. I used to laminate archery bow limbs and despite the epoxy being hard after overnight it definitely has not achieved its full cure which would be more like 48 hours at 20c. Most high strength lams are cured at 60degC for 8 to 12 hours and the cure times get exponentially longer as the temp reduces. You are doing a fantastic job and all the glue lam parts you are making are orders of magnitude stronger than the the originals.--- Graeme
You wouldn't think that it would be possible to be impressed by a wooden beam but I gotta say that is a really nice beam and I'm very impressed with the way it looks. Excellent work.
Thank you, we think they do look pretty good!
Simon added a new meaning to hair brush - so funny. You guys are great but Jemma definitely has the better hair between the two. I could care less if you both made a ton of money because y’all are restoring history and great effort and cost to you. In addition the entertainment value is priceless.
So right! I wish they could make a load of money! Too sad that they cant!
The Beam looks like a piece of art, well done.
I love watching DIY refit/restoration videos of many subjects, but the videos I most look forward to are Ship Happens! You find creative ways to solve problems and have the best “can-do” attitude of any UA-camrs. But most of all, you’re so much fun to watch! Lovable, entertaining and funny and your husband/wife dynamic is just the most wholesome thing that I see on YT. Keep up the good work and we’ll keep watching out here in UA-camland!
Bugger the wingers Emma. Don't worry about them.
Trolls,LOL. You are such a positive inspiration to many.
Hi Guys, Great watching you do this work it brings back many memories of doing this type of form work in the past myself. Please please put the riving knife and overhead guard on to your panel saw. There is a lot of internal pressure in man-made boards and timber which can cause the material to pinch the blade and create kick back. I was a cabinet maker and it happened to me, even with the riving knife the kick back was enough to dislocate my left thumb so that it pointed back up my arm. As for the overhead guard well that speaks for itself. Be safe please! Your doing such a fantastic job on Serinda moving on so fast. Thank you for such interesting content.
You guys do so much you deserve every cent you get and more
Thank you!!
By the way, good on you for doing what you’re doing there’s lots of people sit on their backside doing nothing. It’s only people like you getting up and doing something that keeps things like this alive so don’t worry what they say. Just keep doing it Michael for Hampshire
Well guy's another step forward in the process of what seamed an almost impossible task, and each step you make brings you closer to achieving your dreams
That looks great and reminds me of when I laminated my cabin top beams. As far as finishing (paint/varnish) the beams goes, it is much easier to paint/varnish them before you install them. A suggestion to improve mold release as you make more beams. Hair spray is polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), which is a very good water soluble release agent. So buy a few cans of cheap hair spray and spray the mold down between parts. Or you can just buy a jug of PVA and spray it on. One other suggestion is to use a notched trowel when you put the epoxy on. That will give a more uniform layer of epoxy and will also save on epoxy.
I never knew that about hair spray! Thanks!
Wonderful video
Youare agreat couple. I miss seeing the Kids
