Ep 30: The Last Days on Concrete: Get us back in the water!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 сер 2024
- The week has flown by and what we thought was going to take three days, is now dragging.We are getting exhausted. We are sure some grogginess came from our fun excursion the day prior, but we still have quite a number of boxes to check off. So it's time to gear up and get to it!
As we get back into the air, we can now paint the spots where the stilts were holding the boat up, and finally get the rudder out, since the rudder was blocking access from being able to change the cutlass and prop shaft. But thats not all folks, thru-hulls were prepped and dry fitted, so now is the time to actually install them!
So stressful....do you know this is a hole that either intakes ocean water or where you have a drain from out of the boat...so yes ladies and gentleman, it's a hole in your boat! Not something you take lightly. We hesitated to go forth, since it really is an important piece that you do not want to do wrong. But no matter how high tensions are, we work well together. One breath at a time and one project at a time we keep working through it, trying to "FIGURE IT OUT."
Always trying to have a good time, making each other laugh, especially on the hard days. Boats a mess, we are a mess, and we sit at the edge of our seats as we get put back into the water.
Will there be any leaks?
Did we do a good job?
Watch to find the surprise that knocks us off our feet and really gets our hearts pumping...!!
Can we get through this?
Still staying a couple through the rough road?
You tell us!
Enjoy :)
Seas the Day,
Connor, Malwina & Alivo

You said it. You either got money or time but never both it would seam. Honestly to me "time" is more valuable then the money. After all time is the one thing you can never get more of.
We so agree with that. Feeling so blessed to have the time to do this. Time is priceless. Life is short...enjoy the ride!! Cheers!
Projects tend to always take so long - glad you're back on the water again! Congratulations!!
Thank you!! Feels so good to be back and not sinking hahaha We are getting closer to departure! Woohooo! Here we go!
Brilliant job Guys! attention to detail excellent!!
Thank you very much! Appreciate you! 🙌🏼
Good job on the boat and the video.
Thank you so much! Appreciate your support!
The boat looks great. I'm getting ready to replace all my sea cocks also so it was nice seeing how you did them.
Thank you! Nice!! Let us know if we can help and support you in any way! Good luck! It surely is hard work, but so satisfying to do it yourself! Cheers!
Good job yea I recommend the Milwaukee carbide saws all blade not cheap but last longer.I did mine with a side grinder and a Metobo metal cut off blade.my boats been back in the water about 10 days, nerve racking day for sir even after many times.
Thanks for the tips! Such hard work. We are happy to be done. I am sure it will be nerve racking each time. Nice work!
Looks beautiful! You guys are working so hard. Grab another happy hour as soon as you can. Till the next video ☺️
Thank you! We sure are, but feels good to watch her come together. We plan to leave the slip by September so we are hustling! Happy hour waits until we finish! Then it will be a big celebration on the water!! WOOHOOO Cheers!
Awww sweet Y’all worked hard. Have some dang drinks
Yessir! Cheers!
She's looking good, great work.
Nice job not having any leaks.
Were there any zincs that needed replacing?
Thank you! Yes we did replace the zincs, totally forgot to film that, it was one of our only easiest quick fix! We had one on the prop shaft, one on the rudder gudgeon, and a main house one for thru-hulls and such!
