    Another beauty video. Love the excitement, enthusiasm as completion is near.
    Wow you have a lot to learn about the boat before you embark on the first lengthy voyage.
    Great the way you acknowledge the fine work of workers Mark.

    Looking good. At least you know you can get your washer and dryer out if needed. I am always amazed at how many boats have appliances installed during construction with no plan to remove in 10-20 years.

    Mark great video as always! On your tender straps, please make sure on your rachet straps leave them loose and then take up enough slack that the strap wraps around the barrel at least once. They are less likely to slip loose if you have strap on strap contact. Safe travels to you all!

    Looks extremely unprofessional and unorganized to me. That's what you call a rush job and why you will have to file a bunch of warranty papers the first month

    • @AwanuiNZ
      @AwanuiNZ  6 місяців тому +1

      They don’t rush anything here that I can see. Just lots of people in a small place. Agree lots happened in the last couple of days and more than usual as there was a deadline. Time will tell. One thing is for sure both Nordhavn and Telgeren stand by their build so any issues that come up will be sorted. Watch this space as my intention is to report what happens not just the good things!

      @@AwanuiNZ you have never built anything I guarantee it! That is what you call a cluster fck! I have been apart of a family owned manufacturing business for over 50 years. I can literally do every job myself from welding, painting, design and so on. That literally told me not to buy nothing from them.
