- Spray foam is finally in and that means it's time to start putting things back in! Starting with aligning the propeller shaft to the engine :) We are getting closer to the water every day and can't wait to have the bulk of our sailboat restoration projects over with!

Nice alignments system. So much space to work it too.⛵️
Yeah it’s def not a bad space to work in!
Awesome job .We pushed back our sailing trip from Sooke Marine to Maple Bay till the last week in March now .Those here on the island know its been a little stormy and chilly latly .We do have heat on the Balderdash but yea,,,its more fun in nice weather .Packing 4 cameras with me when we do go and it will be the time of our lives . Lots of editing later . See you out there some day .
Considering the snow we woke up to this morning I would say that is a smart choice! 😂
Welcome to investigative reporting with Taryn, as she works to extract information from the subject matter expert. (very helpful BTW)
Haha you see me so well. Perfect explanation of the process 😂
3 thou ! Nice job on engine alignment 👍
Thanks!
YA, it won't be long now and you and "UNNA" will be playing with the waves. Lets hope the remainder of the overhaul goes exceptionally well.
🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Thanks guys..
Thanks for watching!
@@WaywardLifeSailing oh welcome.. we actually call them couplings “ Jacobs disks” and i never knew where that came from or even if it was correct, but the parts interpreters always understood what we were talking about.. i actually think Logan got it as perfect as possible,
& if it were me, and the back of the gearbox settles down ways, i would be tempted to lower the very front engine mounts which in turn should raise the rear slightly, (that’s if it needs any adjustment at all..
Hey Logan and Taryn. Nice to see things being put back together. I'm doing the same, and plan to be out on the water by June. I look forward to seeing you guys out there.
Sweet! Hope to see you out there!
Woohoooo!
😃😃😃
It's great to be putting things back together again. Very much the light at the end of the tunnel getting bigger and brighter. Replumbing the engine is rewarding (did that on mine) - putting things where you want them after having already used the boat before and seen what you don't like. Any approx timing to go back in?
It’s def a great feeling! Still hoping for late spring, but we just lost a week to COVID and are still recovering, so we will see how it goes.
Oh hey, use an orbital sander with 120 grit to level the spay foam. It saves so much time. Don't do it without googles and a respirator. Cover anything you don't want dust on with plastic.
Ah good tip!
❤
Poor camera! 🤫Sorry. Great to see the progress.
Haha no worries. It’s back to fully functioning again. I’ve done much worse damage dropping it 😅
Cool progress, what is the name of the flange coupler you put on? Very neat.
RND marine flexible couplings they are called 😌
