Those wheels are works of art. Pure and functional, no need for anything fancier. Something you might consider though is wrapping the outside of the wheel in paracord that is uv stabilized, that will give a nice grip texture that does not have to be painted.
It is truly amazing to see two very skilled professionals working together so well towards the goal. That the relationship is father and son makes it even better. We wish you continued success.
More nice work and cool to see the old school winches. If I could make one suggestion, it is this. Years ago, I was part of a crew delivering a very well known offshore racing sailboat from the US West Coast to Hawaii for the Kenwood Cup. The person responsible for taking care of the boat, and also skipper for the delivery trip, put on board an old set of sails from another boat of similar size (including a spinnaker) so as to not wear out the racing sails. When we got to the point to hoist the spinnaker for the downwind run, the sail literally blew apart. We pulled it down and upon examination, almost every seam was rotten, along with the cloth. The sail had been stored for several years without being used or looked at prior to our taking off. Therefore, my suggestion is to examine every seam of every sail for thread wear and to also check the cloth to make sure you don't have any rot due to mildew or mold.
Seriously well done guys. Having owned, skippered and maintained two of my own 100ft schooners I truly understand the achievement. I also understand how much your positive and purposeful approach contributes the the success of such a venture. Keep it up. You are doing great. Can’t wait to see more.
I really loved it when you brought out the old winches and brought them back to life. The cast wheels are sensational and it’s fantastic that you repaired the one that broke. At some point in the future I hope you paint them a different colour, if it’s snowing you won’t find anything on the deck! 😅 Best wishes and good luck in Brazil, from Australia.
Hi! I watch your videos from Brazil. I admire the work you are doing on your schooner. It is very inspiring. I wish you all the best during your stay in Brazil.
His name is Peter :) He has owned the ship for almost 50 years and learned almost all his metalworking skills from working on the ship, converting the tugboat into a sailing ship
@@tigersharkboatworksCurious as to both your backgrounds - your father and yourself? Looks like the you, the narrator (young guy), was perhaps trained as a mechanic or maybe as a marine engineer? Wonderful work!
I am currently sailing on a tallship in Brazil to get my sailing days to become Captain all sailing ships. I hope to squeeze in a little update video with some updates from dad at home, but it's busy days so far. First week of December I'll be back home!

Your videos are ridiculous at the speed you present them. Why would anyone watch little men running around like ants, especially since you narrate at the same speed.

Thanks! I think once we start wrapping things in paracord, we will not know where to stop :)
@@tigersharkboatworks it is easy to get carried away with such things!
Your winches are a beauty!

Thank you, thats very good advice :)
You guys encourage me that actually everything can be repaired not only on ships but also at home. We live in a 170 year old house 🏡 😉thanks for that.
We kind of live by that rule 😁
Enjoy your sail in Brazil!!! and so nice to see Tijgerhaai become alive again step by step..❤ Moedig voorwaarts en zeil met de wind van vandaag..
Thanks a lot!
Nice description for welding cast iron. Enjoying your video's and seeing your progress on the boat.
Thank you!
Hi Gijs and Dad what an awesome Team. I am really looking forward to see you two sailing this ship.👍
Thank you! We're looking forward to it aswell :)

Thank you! That truly means a lot. You did spark our curiosity about those two schooners. Can we admire them somewhere on the internet?
Love watching you guys all the ingenuity and attention to detail. Great work! It's fascinating watching this lovely schooner slowly come back to life.
Thank you!
The older style winches add a lot more character and can be repaired anywhere in the world. Plus, plus 👍🏻
It's amazing how much you and dad get done in a short amount of time !!!👍

Hahah thanks! When we run out of jobs we'll start painting things in different colours :)
Fantastic!

Looks cool
What's your dad's name and how come you are all so good with metalwork?

Jullie zijn goed bezig wel apart dat ik het Engels moet vertalen naar Nederlands wat wordt gesproken door een Fries🤣🤣
Hahah bedankt :) We doen ons best😁
Welke primer gebruiken jullie en hoeveel lagen?
We smeren overal 2 lagen ijzemenie op als primer :)
Waar is julle. Ek is mal oor julle videos

Sorry, ondanks dat ik graag naar deze serie kijk is er echt veel teveel reclame tussendoor en ben ik afgehaakt. Jammer.
Jammer om te horen, ik zal een klacht indienen bij youtube :)

Thanks for your feedback, I'll try to slow down a bit
