    I have to say, using the hole saw to isolate a removable fiberglass plug out of the chain plate nuts was utter genius!

    I met them in Washington NC, and Jordan is a really tall guy. The fact he can squeeze himself in these small spaces is remarkable! In his past life, Jordan was one of those yogis who could fold himself up in a glass box!

    I feel your pain you two !

    When you put the battens back, use some trim washers with the screws instead of re plugging. You may(will) have to get back in there someday and you'll be thanking yourself for the foresight.

When you are making the crossing I am sure you will smile and say, “ it was worth it.” Also you were correct when you said, “ sometimes it does take a bigger hammer.” Looking forward to next week.

    • @clivestainlesssteelwomble7665
      @clivestainlesssteelwomble7665 2 роки тому +1

      Like houses with fitted kitchens and bathrooms..and newer cars everything gets done for looks or the assembly line sequence..
      The rest is what turns maintainance into planned obsolecence..and thats something we all need to see change for the future.
      A spray of light release oil once you remove the nuts will help them slide out when you start to drift them out..
      Coach bolts give a pretty finish but are a pain to get at. .. Trad hex heads are better to get out .. Allen and torex stars in pan head bolts can chew up...though this is more likely with smaller sizes.

    When you were in the back of that boat headfirst legs up with a red face due to blood rushing to your head, I was just thinking "some people think sailors are tough because they can handle that rough weather out there" but man oh man... then you can at least see yourself in some kind of romantic light. Kudos for your persistence and determination, 100 points.

  • @matthewsciarrotta2118

  • @joeaguirre3304
    @joeaguirre3304 2 роки тому

    Apparently I am over the top claustrophobic! I found myself getting anxious watching you wiggle your way around in that locker to get your stern rail bolts! Then in the next scene Jordan you were crawling in headfirst, I was like oh for effn sakes how in the hell is gonna get out of there!!
    I had to pause and step away. I really did. I could not nor would not have done what you did.
    That was spectacular!
    Not only am I claustrophobic but I’m not that bendy.
    Atticus II is going to look so good with the new stern gear. I’m happy for y’all. I truly am.
    But really please go easy on the tight spaces.

    Thanks so much for great video. It’s always a tense moment when moving a mast. A small suggestion. Tie the mast sling to a long line and pull down so the spreaders don’t take all the weight.

  • @richardsmith4187
    @richardsmith4187 2 роки тому +1

    WOW !!! Absolute fantastic videos of all your steps of replacing things during the haul out. Very interesting and we could watch hours and hours of these videos. Jordan it really looked frustrating trying to remove all the nuts and bolts. I think after this experience with the refit, you should have no problems staying on top of things as you pretty much know the boat and most systems from top to bottom. It will be nice to know you checked off all your items white sailing in bluewater and don't have to say .... we should have done that while Atticus II was out. You guys rock, stay warm and know it won't be long and you will be sailing away !

    I’ll be replacing/updating all my headliner over the next few months and I am so OVER pulling staples. I pulled my mast for the first time just before Christmas but it took me like a week to prep! I was so nervous the whole time the crane was there. I feel your pain.

  • @davekragness269

    Your perseverance is enviable. It's pretty amazing the places you can stuff your 6' 4" body and still be able to function. Having a camera on you probably is a good thing when doing these jobs...keeps you honest and forces you to succeed. Like many have said below...most people would have given up and hired it out. The boat is beautiful..and worth the effort!

  • @Johnsouthshore

    Taking the whole batten that the headliner was attached to was brilliant. Sure, if you only thought of that first, but the thing is, now you know.

    @meestahwah 2 роки тому

    I can SO relate to the theoretical planning vs actual time it takes. I started a project a year ago to replace my nav lights with new LED versions. The brackets turned out to be too small. I ended up making new ones myself, but then had to find someone to come to the boat to weld them. After a few failed attempts with flaky welders, I got them welded in place. Then to pull new wires as the old ones were damaged from the heat from welding. After a full 6 hours with my arm inside a 4" inspection port and a 10" x 6" bruise on my fore arm, I got the wire through the pulpit. The struggle continues, but man it will be nice when it is done :-) These projects are hard enough on their own but to also film them must make it that much more challenging. Thanks for the extra effort so I can know I am not alone in my boat project struggles. I can't wait to see the progress. Cheers buds!

  • @twidapate

    OMG do I feel your pain. You’d think removing the chain plates from a little PSC Dana would be easier. Not! It killed me to disturb the factory woodwork, liners and kitty fur. And trying to remove and re-install those top bolts above the wires and cables way up in the small bulwarks required a little bit of magic (and more than a few choice words) to accomplish. So glad that job is behind me.

Is that forever her name or will we see something else? Whatever the answer is y'all rock! It seems that automobile manufacturers have been taking lessons from yacht builders. Make maintenance as difficult as possible as an after effect of making manufacture more economical. I eagerly await the next opportunity to wish you fair winds and following seas.
