    Hi Finn, right from Day 1 and building the shed, every follower has your back, and we are all so appreciative of every one of your videos whenever they arrive. I just wish I wasn't 12,500 miles away here in NZ, or else as a retired joiner/carpenter I would be giving you a hand , even if it was just to sweep the floor, sharpen the chisels and make the tea! Thanks also for sharing your other works, and whilst I know you're too modest to admit it, but I bet you're an integral part of the boatyard.

    Remember Finn: a good boat builder makes mistakes, but a better boat builder knows how to hide them. Excellent video / video work. The short breakaways to sailing, other boats in the yard, and goings on is nice and makes the videos more interesting. Very well done and good camera work.

    If I can give a tip as a 30 yr professional carpenter/woodworker- use anti-vibe gloves when sanding, and use knee pads when kneeling. If you do this before you notice issues, you’ll thank yourself in 20 yrs.

    Finn do yourself a favour. Buy a cheap laser level. One with cross lines. They are incredibly handy for boat building. Sure water levels do an ok job, but having used them quite a few times, they don’t win any convenience awards, and fall way short of what a laser level can do in many situations. Like projecting horizontal and vertical lines etc. They make excellent reference points where nothing is flat, level, or straight on a boat. Keep up the good work. Cheers

    Knott a problem, Finn. You gotta do what you’ve gotta do.
    Always good to see a wherry under way, as usual you’ve knocked the music right out of the park and hey, your boat’s progressing.
    Take care fella, cheers from Cornwall. 😎👍🍻

    👍👌👏 Very well done again and as always (video and work). Working five days a week, restoring a big sailboat and all the filming/editing effort is quite a big challenge. So: Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.

    Well, fife days a week grinding, keeping up the work on Your own trough *_and_* filming/editing is quite the task - so, getting a video shared on UA-cam every once in a while is a treat. Nothing to be worried about. Nice little boating infrastructure surrounding You, obviously. That helps in sourcing payed work and spares/leftovers alike, I reckon.
    Thanks for the work put in and for sharing!

    Nice progress on the rebuild. Wish my hand woodworking skills were as good as yours! (Chopping mortises is my bane-wish I could make sure nobody could ever open them!)
    The _Silver Lass_ is a beautiful lady, and your camera work is exemplary.
    Wow! Wish that kind of display was available when I was a crane operator! (Previous century.)
    Nice to see the primer covering the stern. My, those fair lines are becoming visible, what a fine yacht that will be!

    What a beautiful yacht Silver Lass is. Which port was she sailing to in the video for her fitting out?
    Also, when you showed the leaking joints in the final boat you had craned in, was that the normal situation whilst waiting for the planks to 'plumb-up', or was it a bit more serious than that. To my untrained eye, it looked as though the water was coming in from multiple gaps.
    Thanks Finn - I think you like boats!

    • @knotfinnishedyet9170
      @knotfinnishedyet9170  2 роки тому

      She really is a stunning yacht. She’s gone to Ramsgate marina for the final stages of work to be carried out.
      The leaky boat was expected, it had been sat on dry land for a good 5 years so all the planks had shrunk considerably, a few hours after sitting back In The water she had taken up and swollen enough to stop all the leaking.
