Andy, you have accomplished an unbelievable amount in such a short period. Truly magnificent, your Parenting skills are second to none. The look on Jack's face, as he was introduced to his new desk was truly magnificent. Great job, everything fit like a glove, your an electrical genius.
LOVE your work ethic, lots achieved in a short time. Sometimes think you worry or over think stuff sometimes but I cant imagine the pressure you must put yourselves under with what you are doing. Small gripe, your comment about thinking the individual fuses to the batteries "I think would be best practice" I am sure you would check before doing it though. All you have done over the last couple of sessions is fantastic. The forward facing chart area and moving the switches radios and everything make SO much sense. Give yourself a big pat on the back. Great to see everyone's reaction too.
Andy the look on Jack's face must have been worth all the hard work you put into that renovation. He looked so happy. The nav station was again a brilliant remodel of space - well done.
Amazing job in such a short time Andy. I think we can say Jack's loving what you built in his cabin. And by the way, it's amazing to see him becoming a "little man", his voice changing and the way he communicates with you becoming more and more an adult way. There will be soon two men on board!
It’s absolutely amazing what you are achieving for your beautiful family. Don’t forget to spend time with them when they get back. Otherwise you will end up working so hard on your home that you will miss them growing up. Also give yourself time too.
last week, a new room for a future captain, this week a new cart table... it's gonna be a great family boat by the time you ready to go 🙂 well done kap'n dad, nice work, the woodcarving last week, was great. and this week, wow, woodwork, electrics etc, now the funn part... sanding ;-) wish you a good week , thanks for showing this
andy you’re a legend so much work and done so much in a short time wow andy did you get any sleep truly a real dad and husband wow let me say a great big well done you you really are a star 🤩❤️your efforts are none short of a miracle ❤❤❤
I love taking the time to do things properly. In the past we’ve always been on such a tight deadline for this or that so I’ve had to rush jobs. It’s nice now to be able to take a bit more time to do then
Andy, I’m massively impressed with what you’re doing. Brilliant work. Those teak slats you removed in the beginning are counterintuitively called Ceilings.
Absolutely amazing!! I am so impressies with your skills! Both carpentry and electrical!!! Great jobs and so cool what you did in a few days time!!! Congrats and well done!!! Jack will have a blast there!!!
Very touching and congratulations for your hard and nice work 👍 I remember having to work with my father on our boat, a 36', and it's one of the worst thing to do. You have to crawl in tiny spaces, you hurt yourself, every mistake can sink the whole thing, now or in the future, it's hot and hard to breathe, etc.. . Well, it's a nightmare, in my opinon. 😮💨
Haha, Andy, I can relate to your work ethic when you have no distractions from your family. But oh what a challenge you have given yourself. And once again you surprised me very positively! Brilliant! I think your perseverance and ingenuity make this channel a pleasure to continue watching.
@@SailingMelody Yes really, it was clearly a mix of passion, madness, craftsmanship and love Andy! I felt it haha! And that Jack, what a sweetheart of a young man!
Jack's reaction is absolutely priceless! Andy, you have worked wonders whilst Melissa and the kids were away. I wonder where Jack's Cornish Teddy bear came from? 🤫😜😅😘 big hugs and love x
Yet another great project. Just seen your families reaction must be worth all of the hard work. Do yourself a favour and take a day off and relax, de stress and get yourself ready for the next project. Super job.
Wow, to see Jacks face was fabulous. What a mammoth effort and task you set yourself. Well done managing all the separate aspects in such a short timescale. You deserve a rest now. Super Dad of the year award for sure.
Every time if you have to modified something, you have to move the stock pile for me it's the is worse than the job itself. WOW, you have the courage to remove the stock and put it back ... ❤🎉😮 Bravo!
Andy WOW!!! fantastic jobs you did on the boat. I'm impressed. Jack was extremely excited good to see. Hopefully Melissa comes around as she didn't seem 100% impressed at first. All I heard was hmmm we didn't talk about it what we talked about was not doing it. Well that's what I heard. I'm sure she'll change her mind. Can't wait to what more you've planned for Melody. Cheers catch you next week
That was just me teasing because of a previous conversation if you listen carefully in the background you can hear me thanking him for the hard work. I love the new layout!! 😁 We both agreed previously that we wanted to do it but we just weren't going to do it for the foreseeable because of the work load but I'm very happy. 😁😁
@SailingMelody Melissa I'm a man. I don't listen well, that's what my darling wife says 😏. And I knew you liked it as you like everything both you and Andy have done to the boat. If we were actually speaking this in person, I wouldn't have sounded so negative. Typing conversations is hard to make out. All good 👍
How wonderful. The look on Jack's and Melissa's faces when they saw what you did Andy. Bullseye or ONE HUNDERD AND EIGHTYYYYYY. No wonder you met Bully Boy (was that really him?)
When Jack sits on the end of the bed at his new desk it looks like the mattress compresses and the foot board of will push up on the calves of his legs. This looks uncomfortable and might reduce circulation to his feet. He might need an inclining board under the mattress to avoid this 'condition' or reduce the height of the back board. Wonderful work!
And the handyman award of the year goes to ..... Idk, I'm not eligible to give it out but you surly have my vote Andy. Considering available resources, space, time, you name it. Your ability us off the charts. Anyway, a comment for the algorithm to chew on. Take care.
Impressive piece of work. I suspect an awful lot of planning had gone into making it look easy. As usual, I suspect communication can always be improved!! well done.
Jeez Andy Lad I have meet some Grafters in my time but you go to the top of that list.😅😂❤ Man that's some work ya have put in outstanding and Excellent.😅😮😂vI don,t care if you don,t agree but you are definitely in The Master Craftsman class bar non 😂. Well worth the time and effort going by Jack and Mel's response.😅😂 Keep at it. 😮😂❤

Absolutely brilliant Andy and the look on Jack's face when he saw his new desk was priceless!
That’s worth so much to me 😊

Thank you very much. I’m definitely not though and regularly ask friends like Ian Poole and Andy Darlington and Ben Roth for advice.
You’re a great dad. Well done, it’s amazing work.🎉
Thank you!

Thank you. Yes people’s positive comments have blown me away!
Respect to your parenting skills. Jack is an amazing young man with impeccable manners and admiration to his parents.
Thank you that’s much appreciated
Fantastic job Andy! Jack was over the moon-Another great video.
Thank you yes he was delighted :)
Andy the look on Jack's face must have been worth all the hard work you put into that renovation. He looked so happy. The nav station was again a brilliant remodel of space - well done.
Absolutely, my family are my world 😊
Amazing job in such a short time Andy.

Yes indeed. I am looking forward to my son being a fit strong young man to help out when we’re on passage
Very well done Andy, you just keep getting better and better with your carpentry. Nice 👏👏👌
Thanks so much I do enjoy it
Jacks reaction is brilliant!!
Thank you 😊
Holy Moly Andy, you're a legend. That would have taken me three years to do!
Thank you. I pushed myself pretty hard tbh and burned out a bit afterwards
Everyone looks so happy! It’s great to have the family back again!
It really is! I missed them a lot!
The look on Jack and Melissa's faces makes it all worthwhile. Brilliant..!!
We were over the moon
That was lovely. Top dad/husband. Nice to see that smile.
Hahaha thank you very much 😊
Chapeau , Andy very well done 👍👍👍. 😎😉
Thanks 👍
Andy you sure worked your backside off to get all of that done before the family arrived back. What a great job. All the best you guys.
Amazing amount of custom work! Well done!
Thanks. It was a mammoth job
It’s absolutely amazing what you are achieving for your beautiful family. Don’t forget to spend time with them when they get back. Otherwise you will end up working so hard on your home that you will miss them growing up. Also give yourself time too.
We are certainly spending lots of time together 🥰
last week, a new room for a future captain,
this week a new cart table...
it's gonna be a great family boat by the time you ready to go 🙂
well done kap'n dad, nice work, the woodcarving last week, was great.
and this week, wow, woodwork, electrics etc,
now the funn part... sanding ;-)
wish you a good week , thanks for showing this
Yes it’s coming together nicely. Lots of detail work to do but that’s fine I can just chip away at that stuff over me
andy you’re a legend so much work and done so much in a short time wow andy did you get any sleep truly a real dad and husband wow let me say a great big well done you you really are a star 🤩❤️your efforts are none short of a miracle ❤❤❤
Thank you so much. I didn’t sleep much lol no
Incredible that you got so much MAJOR fitting out done, and even more incredible that you were able to record so much of it for us.
Thank you
Wow, super hard work pays off. That boat was lucky to find you all as owners, it will look like new. As a sparky, I appreciate tidy wiring 🎉
I love taking the time to do things properly. In the past we’ve always been on such a tight deadline for this or that so I’ve had to rush jobs. It’s nice now to be able to take a bit more time to do then
Andy, what an amazing job. Well done. It's great to see all those smiles on your faces and the appreciation on Jack's face, too.
Thank you very much!
Glad you enjoyed it Jack was delight which made all the work worthwhilen
Andy, I’m massively impressed with what you’re doing. Brilliant work. Those teak slats you removed in the beginning are counterintuitively called Ceilings.
Yes I’m aware lol. The wall is the ceiling and the ceiling is the Deckhead etc etc. but sometimes it’s easier to just for simplicity
Well done Andy I think the look on his face and reactions said it all a very happy jack and very thankful 😊😊
Glad you enjoyed it Jack is so happy yeah
Another great episode your family are so proud, well done. Your son is growing into a fine young man. Keep up the great videos 👍

I’ve seen them several times. Always a great live show
Absolutely amazing!! I am so impressies with your skills! Both carpentry and electrical!!! Great jobs and so cool what you did in a few days time!!! Congrats and well done!!! Jack will have a blast there!!!

It’s hard work but I truly love it
@@SailingMelody You do love it!? Did you see a doctor for that? 🤣
Haha, Andy, I can relate to your work ethic when you have no distractions from your family. But oh what a challenge you have given yourself. And once again you surprised me very positively! Brilliant! I think your perseverance and ingenuity make this channel a pleasure to continue watching.

You have an amazing ‘can do’ attitude Andy, brilliant to watch.
Thank you kindly
Jack's reaction is absolutely priceless! Andy, you have worked wonders whilst Melissa and the kids were away. I wonder where Jack's Cornish Teddy bear came from? 🤫😜😅😘 big hugs and love x
Thank you! 😁😁 The boys loves them
Great progress Andy. I got the Impression that they were all thrilled, hearing Jack was appreciation in itself. Stay safe.
Yes I was a bit worried Melissa might not like what I’d done without checking with her before I started

Every time if you have to modified something, you have to move the stock pile for me it's the is worse than the job itself. WOW, you have the courage to remove the stock and put it back ... ❤🎉😮 Bravo!
The stock? Which piece is the stock? 😊
The sound that drawer made at 13:10 made me think I'd misheard, and you were going to put some jaws in 😂
Hahaha no.

What a lovely episode. Watch all the videos and never commented before but that was so nice to watch.
Glad you enjoyed it thank you for commenting
Andy , some of the best work I have see you do ! Beautiful ! 👍🏻👍🏻
Wow, thank you
It's amazing the amount of work that happens with wife and kids away.
I miss them a lot but I confess I can work easier knowing if I save sharps or chemicals around I don’t have to worry about Ollie picking them up
i wish i could say more but everyone,s comments are spot on , amazing work Andy and the look on Jacks face priceless , very very well done
Thank you so much 😊
Well done Andy. You have a heart of gold

Jack is sounding more like a teenager. Congratulations on scoring dad points on his cabin improvements.
Thank you. He’s growing up fast
Magical transformation !

A massive amount of work! well done, looks great!
Thank you
How wonderful. The look on Jack's and Melissa's faces when they saw what you did Andy. Bullseye or ONE HUNDERD AND EIGHTYYYYYY. No wonder you met Bully Boy (was that really him?)
Haha yes it was Terry. He’s a great guy. Thank you
@@SailingMelody Terry Jenkins? I think I saw another dartsplayer.
When Jack sits on the end of the bed at his new desk it looks like the mattress compresses and the foot board of will push up on the calves of his legs. This looks uncomfortable and might reduce circulation to his feet. He might need an inclining board under the mattress to avoid this 'condition' or reduce the height of the back board. Wonderful work!
We discussed that and he said there was no pressure but I’ll ask him to tell me straight away if it becomes an issue
Hello. All very cool. You put a BIG smile on my face.
Hello! :) thanks for watching
Jacks voice! He's growing up! (Sniff tear sniff).
I know 😭
Super job on the nav station! Can't understand why anyone would want a rear facing set up. 👍
This was side facing so you could only stand at it.
And the handyman award of the year goes to .....
Idk, I'm not eligible to give it out but you surly have my vote Andy. Considering available resources, space, time, you name it. Your ability us off the charts.
Anyway, a comment for the algorithm to chew on. Take care.
Thank you very much 😊
Absolutely brilliant
Thank you kindly 😊
That was one really happy young man!
Very nice you could see it in Jack’s smile he loved it!
Yes that was lovely to see
Wonderful job, Andy! 😎🥰🤗
Thank you! 😃
Very nice - I walk past Ocean Melody a few times a month and always wonder how you are progressing!
Are you on the same pontoon?

Impressive piece of work. I suspect an awful lot of planning had gone into making it look easy. As usual, I suspect communication can always be improved!! well done.
Well thank you, but I was genuinely making that up as I went along 😂
You really know how to work Andy,well done!
Thank you 🙂
