And so do i my friend . The Privateer was always a gorgeous looking craft . What you have done , has made it 10 times better
Nice work.
You have turned a pretty standard old poly weekender into a precious small yacht. Fantastic job! The Privateer always was a rather interesting and nice designed boat, only let down by the rather crude and seventies idea of finish. Gone are the 'van style' carpets, in came a great wooden finish.
Thank you 😉
This looks amazing. Great job.
Superb job, and a great inspiration for my own slightly tatty Swift 23.
wow you did an amazing refit of the old boat ,could never under estimate the amount of work and time its taken to get her to such a high level of quality ,i,m half way through every single item and thing you had to do , now you can enjoy sailing her for years without any need or worry about things breaking and repairing
Cheers!🤘😎
Beautiful
AWESOME!
Beautiful... this is
Was für eine wunderschöne und bemerkenswete Arbeit. Sie haben Ihr kleines Boot wirklich in eine Schönheit verwandelt.
Running water? Lol, OK the fridge is nice, a small vented heater, doesn't take much and being nice and toasty is really great. A cockpit table, with a awning would be great to take advantage of those nice evenings.
Owning a small boat = much fun, and easy on the pocket book.
20 is a bit tight, but you did a really nice job, she looks very swanky.
Bravo Monsieur! A splendid job! Better than new.
very nice thanks for sharing and fair winds , cheers Paul
thank you Paul, what an honor, i have been watching many videos of your channel, great!
Wow, doch viel mehr Arbeit als ich dachte. Nice Job!
Better than new.
Very well done.
Super klasse.
Viel spass.
Gruesse aus Alicante.
right outa the gates with a classy video! Promising! what fun!
Absolutely beautiful! Well done.
Amazing transformation! Wow. There are so many good old boats out there, just takes a willing hand to turn them into goers. I know; I own one.
Very nice job. I have a 20’ Cal 20 that I am in the process of fixing up. This video gave me some great ideas!
Great Video. 10/10. Keep Sailing.
Thats a sweet little boat, you did an outstanding job! Beautiful
beautiful boat
Indeed a 10 out of 10 -- beautiful work!
Thank you!😄
@@sailingjosefine I've fixed up 7 sailboats over the past fifteen years, from 20 feet to 33 feet. I had a Cal 20 that would have benefitted from your type of restoration, I loved that sailboat. Your restoration has given me inspiration for my next project sailboat, if I have one.
I enjoyed this so much 😊
Really great job! I'm just beginning mine now. I finally found the boat I've been looking for, for years...A Balboa 26'. I have her stripped down in the backyard and am doing just about everything that you just did. Thanks very much for the inspiration. Fair Winds!
Wow! Now that's an impressive make over.
Awesome! Congratulations! Very good taste!
beautiful job!
That has to be the nicest Privateer 20 in the world!
What a beautiful boat! Really nice work. I think she could be even more beautiful as a cat boat, or maybe with a junk rig, but that's just me, it's a lovely boat as it is.
You have done such good work. She looks beautiful and graceful with the new ports and bowsprit. Well done, you have the perfect sized boat, now enjoy. :)
beautiful boat. you can be proud of that vessel for years to come.
Very nice job and a very nice looking boat
Harika 👍
Eso es amor a tu barco.
Precioso.
Gran trabajo.
Felicidades.
gracias!
Well worth the time and effort. Very well done. Cheers!
Good job and boutiful music😊
Very nice job.
Thank you! There is a sailing video with her coming up tomorrow (:-)
very nice refit
I have the same boat! You are a true craftsman! My refit will never match yours, but that s Oke. The fun is in the trial and error and making it better and more beautiful as you go along!
Absolútne krásna práca !!! Prajem veľa šťastných míl !
Very nicely done 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Amazing
Bravissimo
Very nice work, cute little boat. Thank you for documenting the process and putting it all together in a video. I will be attempting to renovate a somewhat similar 20ft trailerable boat soon, mostly for lake use. Can you maybe recommend a sail workshop in DE?
Life without a compass🥺
That boat is waaaaay bigger than twenty inches.
Oh dear, that will take me hours and hours of watching youtube videos and learn how to get that error fixed🤣
You have done an excellent job.
I am also busy restoring a 20' Vivacity, and yes, it's a lot of work that people don't realize, but the reward is absolutely marvelous.
I have finished the sanding of the hull and deck now, and I was wondering what specific paint you used on the upper hull and deck?
Hope she gives you many hours of excellent sailing 👌🤙
I used Hempel Brilliant Gloss 1K for the deck, the lighthouse red (brown) color is from Epifanes, the new International Toplac Plus is also very good.👍
@@sailingjosefine Thank you for the info. 👌
A friend of mine also recommended swimming pool epoxy paint. Wondered if somebody have tried it before...
@@mikejansen1515 Oh no, please use only marine paints, (UV-protections, adhesion, ect.) Unless you sanded it down to the original gelcoat and have a garage/shed to paint in, I would only use 1K paint. Not forget the ease of use with 1K.😁
@@sailingjosefine Noted, thank you👌
What paint did you used inside and how long did it stinch. I used some cheap acryd paint in bildges and it still stinks like a hell after two years
Impressive for a 20 inch vessel
I don't think he got it...!
Women agree.
Oh dear, that will take me again hours and hours of watching youtube videos to learn how to get that error fixed🤣
lovely
Looks real nice but I must say that you've added a fair bit of weight to her, how does she sit now on her lines?
It might look like a lot of weight, but it isn't. I used 3mm and 4mm ply under the top and sides, the support under the new cockpit floor is light palowina wood (like balsa), so I guess all in all not more the 20kg. Therfore I use a 2.3 Honda air cooled outboard, the lightest you can get, also a 80 amp very light LiFe batterie. The boat was designed for 2 adults and 2 children at the age of 13 (as stated in the manual). The designer even recommended to use sand balast in the bilge under the cockpit to get her level, when you sail alone. So on longer a trips, I carry addional four 15l watercans as ballast. She weighs around 850kg loaded, (with fuel, water, equiment, food, ect.). So no problem here. I do also have my concerns once in a while regarding weight, when I see people on youtube fitting out their boats with heavy stuff and for instance putting on a washing mashine in their boats.😆
I give the video the name Odyssey
I'm guessing you're not a boatbuilder, like all the folks saying how wonderful a fitout this is.
Why paint all the interior then line it with ply AND not insulate?
Where did you study yacht design? (yes I noticed the misuse of spiling weights) I suggest you ask for your money back with regards length of bowsprits, sail area and its effect on balance and speed.
WHAT?? You've got to be kidding! You're actually going to sea in that? When I saw what you were doing I immediately thought oh well, he's only going to be day sailing in sheltered waters and drinking a lot, a true weekend sailer so all the weaknesses he's built in won't matter. Hope you don't get caught out in a severe blow....
An you're being a bit harsh, look at the non such, or sailing wings. More sail area with the longer bow sprit is common and preferred as it keeps the center of gravity low, increases sail area.
Adding all that weight though, is the speed killer in light winds.
Nice little gin palace, where 2 foot itis will kick in. Pretty comfy little spot for shelter from the rain.
Thank you for your concern! Let me insure you, I' am well aware, this boat is not a Flicka 20 and it is not intended for crossing oceans! It is a truly weekender for sheltered waters or river estuary's (as stated in the manual). Well, the previous owner crossed the English Channel with it, what I probably would not want to do.
And yes, I am a designer and a boat builder (where is the problem?);
You can see my latest design here: ua-cam.com/video/Omigh-gM6MA/v-deo.html
Eh, I am also a pilot, watch here: ua-cam.com/video/vxTupUUNsF8/v-deo.html
But mainly, I am a sailor having fun: ua-cam.com/video/w_hQXJtmk04/v-deo.html😁
This video is only showing how I did it for my personal needs and preferences. It is not intended to be a tutorial in boat restoration, or a how to, nor a lecture in yacht design and I am not perfect either. For this, I recommend watching Andy's videos from boatworks today. I spend many hours watching them and learning a lot! But what worked for my boat to get her faster, was to increase the sail area. And as a budget boat, the easiest way was to put on a longer bowsprit (sails down- 0 kn, reefed- low speed, all sails up- normal speed, gennaker up- top speed). So tell us your solution, how to get more speed out of that boat, in an area, with prevailing winds around 6 - 10 kn? Also, if you compare the design, for instance with the pocket ship, you will notice, that the pocket ship has it's centreboard aft the mast, the Privateer 20 has it in front of the mast, which looks bit odd for me. Anyway after the changes I made, she now sails very well balanced! So what's wrong with that? 🤔
Excellent video!, you have done a beautiful job with your sailboat and this inspires me a lot. I think 20 ft is the right size for trailer. Enjoy your sailing!
I have a Privateer 20. Great little yacht.
Oh yes, she is great fun!
Absolutely gorgeous. Have to transform mine now.
A beautiful boat you made a masterpiece lovely workman ship gone into her 💯👌 yes there money pits but should out last you if you keep her maintenance up , but the biggest problem is dont get that bug and want a bigger boat 😮trust me wish i never sold my small boat a 22ft and went bigger that stuffed me i got out and bought a caravan and even they need maintenance 😢😂safe sailing and fair winds 👍 im new to your channel i don't sail anymore but i will watching you and your adventures 🙂
Absolutely beautiful. Well done. Health to enjoy 🎉
Truly incredible transformation, outstanding craftsmanship, sense of aesthetics an functionality, oh, well... just look at at the flag. I just learn the important... how to turn old, tired, small sailboat into sailing jewel. Thank you for posting. Hope to see you on the french coast sometime next year. Fair winds.
Thank you for your lovely comment!😁
