What a beauty - looking back when she was in the US and how she looks today, my goodness me, what a journey you made us take part to. Thank you....
@@05stones I never doubt this paired with Swiss craftsmanship and unbeatable combination 👍😉
This boat is turning into a true jewel.
Still enjoying your work, your dreams, your channel, your music!
The chain plates with the bowsprit and the pulpit look amazing on the Cape George looks fantastic guys. Really really does.
MC II will be a head-turner wherever you go. Even without the mast and all the cables and tools inside her beauty shines through more and more with every step you take. What a reward for years of meticulous work! And she´s not even in the water yet ...
Your rare jewel is beginning to shine more and more brightly!
I really respect the Renaissance Man, Aladino, for taking his time and using optimal materials and techniques in his work. Same with Maya's respect for the durability and beauty of her finishing work and material choices. It's all too tempting to develop a 'Git 'er done' attitude and end up with a 6/10 finished project,. I admire and respect you both! Best regards from an airplane, car, truck, house and commercial builder AND sailor from Toronto!
This is great to see. Kudos for sticking with that drivetrain struggle. It was no surprise that you prevailed. Look forward every week to see what's new. Thank You both and Dad too.
What beauty and luxury becomes a sailboat because of a few meticulous wonderful people 😊
I've been following y'all for a couple of years. It's nice to see it finally coming together. The both of you should be very proud of what you've accomplished so far. The best is yet to come!
Best wishes....
Tons of progress , she’s looking mighty fine . Those chain plates are what dreams are made of , pure boat bling.
And well away from toes!😂
Fantastic work and with such craftsmanship. Beautiful
The shaft and coupling should go to a machine shop I can tell you when you put the coupling in the shaft there will be runout on the face. This is eliminated by dialing the shaft to zero runout in lathe and taking a small cut across the face of the coupling making it true to the shaft ,I also check and correct runout in diameter which happens when you tighten the setscrews. I have done this fir a few boats including my own...zero vibration
That’s the professional way! Good on ya!
I don't necessarily agree with a machine shop being involved but, I would have made the end of the shaft a sliding fit in the coupling face end. The whole point of the split coupling is that it easy to fit and remove. After a few years yours will be almost impossible. The way I have done many is to relieve the end with emery tape to fit the coupling face end, put a bronze fox wedge in the slot to open it, fit to the shaft with just firm hits with a copper or lead hammer. Remove the fox wedge and fit and tighten the bolts. The only time that will slip is if you get a tarpaulin wrapped in the prop. How do I know!!
To remove the coupling to service the stern gland , tube or other reasons just remove the clamping bolts and fit a fox wedge, to open the slot, the shaft will come out without huge forces. I doubt yours will !
Well done on the flooring sanding, that takes huge courage and care, lovely work M.
@@rl3898 Well I have been a millwright / machinist for over 40 years working within .0003 max tolerances and have done quite a few shafts for friends and have never had a vibration ,I also installed an R &D coupling on my boat that let's me check a and adjust alignment without coupling removal. Every shaft I have done when dialed in has had runout on face and diameter so I will keep doing it the correct way.
Truly brilliant, she'll turn heads in all the various harbors you enter. Thanks Aladino, you are a master craftsman.
Lovely episode again. Beautiful music. Great work. And it's really a beautiful boat - wow.
"...it's a carriage bolt..." Classic Aladino! 2 points!
Cabinet doors are beautiful! Everything is coming together now. Great job.
What a satisfying place to, where every little project makes a huge visual impact. More and more beautiful each week.
So good to watch the two of you working. Your standards of craftsmenship and attention to detail is exemplary and should be applauded - very well done, she is looking beautiful!!
This work of art is a reflection of you two. That reflection is amazing.
The Bowsprit is just incredible. I've been lucky enough to meet some dolphins on a cat, you'll have an even better view. You two are such an inspiration of aesthetics, detail and hard work it is almost too much sometimes.
Will be nice to see you sailing again when everything's done. Among other things, I watch sailing videos because it's something I'll unlikely be doing myself. One of the reasons your channel is one of my favourites is that engine troubles are extremely boring and you hardly ever have them.
Beautiful work on the shaft drive system, very nice, well planned and executed.
These final visual elements seem to make such a big difference. Well done.
21:09 Great work you all got a lot done. What are you going to use to protect the bowspirit? Varnish? Wood sealer then something else?
I almost always enjoy the sound design in these videos, but this is next level! Love it!
Your Bow sprint is a true work of art. So, looking forward to Miya's being out there and showing us your first dolphin escort. I appreciate both of your attention to detail. Your craftmanship is reminiscent of my husband and his approach to his woodworking, happy memories. I enjoy just looking at the many works of art that he dreamed of and brought to reality,🥰 bring me joy. Magic Carpet 2 IS a work of Art built with Love that will take you on many adventures.
Brining the magic to the carpet ride ! Amazing progress
A gorgeous dolphin viewing platform indeed! Triumph! 🥳❤️🎉
Dear Sailing magic carpet couple.
👍👌👏 Oh WOW, a lot of progress happened. The observation deck on the bowsprit looks awesome. 2) I always like to see Maya's Dad. He's simply a great guy. 3) Aladino gets better (if even possible) the more difficult the work becomes. Like me challenges motivate him even more. Maya has become a prep work and varnish expert. Everything looks really fantastic already.
Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and especially health to all of you.
Its always fun to see everything coming together. She looks great.
Beautiful bote! Even more beautiful Maya! 😍 Don't worry, Aladino, I'm old and I'm far away. 😃
The music is absolutely beautiful thank you for sharing
Your boat has exceeded factory quality. Nice work.
What a whopper of an episode! 🥳🎉 Engine ✔️ bowsprit ✔️ cabinets ✔️ floors ✔️ chain plates ✔️ rub rails ✔️ AND the head as well!!! 🤯🤯🤯 I'm all in my feels seeing how much is coming together! 😍 You guys are so close!!! Someday we'll share an anchorage and I'm going to fan girl so hard 😅 please don't be frightened, I'll get over it (eventually). Lots of love ❤
It would be amazing to share anchorage one day indeed!
All that HARD work is really coming together!!! Keep up the good work, gang!
A very groovy episode. Your beautiful sailboat is coming along nicely. Your RED engine is gorgeous.
So great to see it coming together! Can’t wait to see her in the water and back to sailing!
Thanks for the varnish leson. I have to do my floors so i will use the polyurethene as advised.
Paul
Loved this video so much things are taking shape now you will soon be in the water
When Aladino said that you were kicking this week off with a brand new feature I paused the episode and went straight to Spotify to get your new song. The doors are a brand new feature. He’s not wrong. Just a bit different than what I was hoping for. I am looking forward to more of your music. Love your channel and you project. She’s so beautiful. Can hardly wait to see how she sits in the water.
1st to comment! I'm always here for the very satisfying boat project craftsmanship and the music! Just happy to watch another episode!! 😸 And, Maya, ah yesss, the music!! 😸
Still with you after all this time.
Almost there!! Thank you Maya for another great video. And congrats to you both for getting this far! A real testament to perseverance.
Ooohhh Maya! Time for another Maya concert Please ❤ 😂 !
Your violin is good for my tired old soul! ❤
What a journey you have taken us on! Soon the Journeys will be yours and we all wait to take that journey with you as well. I am so impressed with the craftsmanship and the intelligent selection of wood and finishes that you have chosen. Simply a stunning transformation!!!!! Rob
This boat is truly a piece or Art!
Looks amazing, guys....its always the way when all that hard work finally comes together at the end, and you start to see the fruits of your blood sweat and tears
I love your persistence. Do the work even when you’re not feeling it.
Also those chain plates look nice and beefy.
The wood finishing looks great too.
Ever Onwards!
Cada vez estou mais ansioso em ver o barco velejando lindamente. Saudações do Brasil.
Beautiful inside and out, the boat and the people building it......
She turns out to be beautiful. Great job! Love it.❤
Thanks as always, great to see the chainplates go on and the cupboard doors as well. That coupling was a challenge but at least you know it won’t fall off. Enjoy your work together.
Maya is really doing such a great job with all that tedious refinishing! My girlfriend helped me a lot on our boat project and the amount that took off my mind was astronomical. I’m sure he is super great full. Keep it up, my girlfriend and I over last winter redid some of a 24ft 80’s powerboat interior from scratch. 90% of the fiberglass and epoxy skill set came from countless years watching you guys. It turned out wonderful! Us too had to take it out for a bit to get some real motivation for the last stretch but it does wonders for your motivation to keep going.
Your smiles speak volumes!! Congrats on making such great progress
I love the patience needed to do it right and the craftsmanship to achieve it. Well done, it will be something to take great satisfaction in achieving. Cant wait to see it emerge.
This is a whole bunch better than new. Thank you for the joy. Happy Happy!
I love to watch artists at work!!
Very nicely coming together. Nice job sanding the floor.
Finishing touches on a reassuringly solid foundation. Great to see
It's all coming together. Looking great. Well done to both of you.
Congratulations on getting the engine in place and the shaft installed! The boat really is progressing well and it’s as beautiful as was envisioned!
Wonderful music too! Thanks for taking us along!
It’s amazing how little things like chain plates and rub rails can make such a difference in the look of your boat, while installing the engine was a knuckle buster and back breaker without adding any visible difference. Well, it’s September now. I know your published videos lag in real time. I hope that you are cruising now as you had hoped several months ago. Looking forward to getting wet and filling some sails soon.
It looks like you’re going places with that beautiful bow sprit on. Launch date approaches😊
Nice episode! she´ll be sailing soon ❤🎉
Inscribe the door location under the hinges. You will only see it when you unscrew the hinge off the door.
I can almost hear the waves slapping against the hull and the wind in the sails ty for the content guys
I really like the bow sprit with the platform. I can see Maya out on the platform looking off into the horizon with the porpoises dancing down below and the sun disappearing down into the sea. Not long now, eh?
Aladino with the light on his head honorary minion! And the double degree wife .in Sanding and finishing ...oh what a team .. don't forget d.o.d. dear old dad . Just filling in the blanks .. dream team
It's turning into a work of art. Lovely.
Yes visually exciting, so good to see a young couple making it happen soon for around the planet.Shaft ahh Ahh ahh😅
Another great video. .. those couplings are not designed to be that tight. Thats why they are a split coupling with a key way. I think you will come to regret putting it on so tight. Just my 2 cents.
The chain plates and rub rail look beautiful
Such a beautiful boat, and it's so exciting to see her coming back together.👏🏻🍻
Looking happy and healthy Maya. Good to see.
Were your ears burning this a.m.? We were in PT visiting Duracell and our fingers were crossed you might be around for the boat fest... super impressed with your progress - she is really a beautiful boat...
Congrats to both of you. Although the work is not yet finished, she looks better than new. Regards from CH. Silvano
Great progress in this segment. Engine looks so cool with the red paint.
You have done a tremendous amount of work and it pays off now, not much left to do and sooner than later you will be sailing this beautiful boat.
Thank you for sharing this journey! Great episode you guys! Oh so close, I bet your tasting salt on your lips already. Enjoy your week ahead.
Are you guys getting a lot of work done looking really good great job
Gorgeous work! Your boat is coming out fantastically!
I really admire the attention to detail. It is very inspiring. I am following Sail life with Mads, the Tally Ho, Ran sailing and the Duracell projects as well but your boat is the most beautiful. And Tally Ho.
I don't think you truly realize the impact you have on people like me. Young Aladino has done nothing but create perfection in everything he touches. Maya, his incredibly talented wife with those striking blue eyes, is an exceptional violinist. And Brian, the engineer father, has quickly won the empathy of those who follow his daughter and son-in-law. What more can I say without sounding monotonous in my praise? But honestly, it couldn't be any other way!
What a kind comment -- thank you so much for being here with us
Nice work, guys, I love the fact that you guys do the job right no matter what challenges that lie in front of you. It will make cruising far more enjoyable, with less equipment failures... and a great job with these videos.
Love following you in this build. The one thing/we miss is Maya's opening musical that you had when you were in the US. Please bring back your talent with the Vio. Thx
Wow, what a week. Drive train done, engine connected, bowsprit, floors, chainplates, rubrail - actually I had expected at least 3 weeks/episodes for all that work. Congrats!
I have been following since you put this boat in the shed in the states. To see how far it's come is so cool. You guys have done an amazing job.
This is like the NPR of sailing channels
Love all the beautiful improvements!
Super progress guys, as always ,Thanks for taking us along from all of the arm chair boaters and the ones who fall into the old saying I spent most of my money on women booz and boats, the rest i wasted!🙃
Thank you for sharing all this with the world - I have learned a lifetimes worth from your refit, hoping to out all that goodness into a smaller scale one of my own sometime soon 🙏
This was, indeed a HUGE week, guys! The perseverance and long range planning you've poured into this beautiful - and soon to be floating - piece of art is not only inspirational, but heart warming. Congratulations for all that you've accomplished. You most certainly should be feeling a great sense of accomplishment. Wow!
Only master A can be buzzed by a carriage bolt. As usually a great video you guys….it’s looking mighty snappy!
So sorry I can’t afford to be a Patreon, but none the less, you two are amazing!!
Keep up the excellent work❤️
She is looking fantastic, great workmanship by you both.
I've been watching since right before C hit in 2020. I really enjoy how much byou all love and put into these boats. Keep it up!!
Hats off to you guys one and all.
Great job this week!! Everything looks great. Congratulations 🎉
You both have done an amazing job. I am getting closer to getting my own Boat. And you have inspired me so much.
