Just binge watched all 16 episodes and subscribed. That's a huge amount of work you've done! I really like the boat too. Look forward to new episodes. Thanks.
I am considering this for my Westsail 32. Glassing the edge over once the caprail is removed. I know what it's like refitting by yourself. Kudos. Can't wait to see more episodes.
Thank you! I have a bunch more footage to edit. I have just entered the busy season for me work-wise so it's been tough to edit and get up to the boat. Hopefully I'll have some time soon
Did you ever consider taking the mast down before taking out the bulkheads and removing the deck to hull fittings? I would be worried about the potential damage to the other boats least not the strain on the deck from being unsupported below.
I just finished binge watching your whole series of videos. Very interesting. From the end of 2004 to the beginning of 2006 I did a major refit on a Cape Dory 28. It is a boat similar to yours in some regards. My interior did not have the extensive rot that yours had but I wanted to rearrange the it into what I thought was a better layout for my purposes. My deck rot was problematical but not insurmountable. One thing you might consider is bonding the hull to deck together on the inside of the boat. Then you could remove the outward turning flange on the outside and bond the hull to deck together on the outside as well. A monumental project but what the hay, you're already doing a monumental project. I did this on my boat and was very satisfied with the results. 15 years ago I did not have a digital video camera and my early digital camera had only limited capacity. But I did take a whole series of digital photos. They are now on my website and pretty much show the entire project, beginning to end. You might find my interior layout of interest. As for your Yanmar. I think they have wet liners which would make rebuilding the engine pretty easy. As for the trans mission ???. The problem is the cost of parts and labor invested vs. the cost of a new motor and trans. Even so the rebuild would probably be only around 1/3 the cost of a new motor / trans. And your labor is free...right ;
@@refittingreverie7992 The universe was smiling on me at that time in my life. I finished a solo circumnavigation on my CD28 in 2009. By chance, it would seem, on my final leg of the journey I met a man in Puerto Rico. He was boat shopping. I helped him out with some insight and opinions. When I made it back to Florida shortly thereafter I had an e-mail from him. He wanted to buy FeNIX, my CD28. The deal was done quickly and easily. I sold Fenix because I wanted something a bit bigger for long time live aboard use. That I now have with SunShine a 36' S2 11c.
She's been sitting 10 years! She was covered pretty good but it got in from some stanchions, cleats, the opening where the chainplates come through the hull, basically any through bolted fixture! Luckily my bulkheads are good but the sole was absolutely soaked and the first 5" of plywood on the berths were toast. I'll send you some pics.
Посмотрел все Твой выпуски, Удачи Тебе , терпения и денег на восставленные яхты. Важно что корпус целый, остальное можно сделать. Что с двигателем ? Поздравления из Москвы
Спасибо! Это медленный прогресс, но я этого ожидал. По одному понемногу. Я не думаю, что сейчас стоит вкладывать деньги в ремонт мотора. Я просто продолжаю просматривать объявления о доступном по цене двигателе. Рады российскому зрителю! В колледже я изучал русский язык, но все забыл. Придется полагаться на гугл переводчик :)

Hope you were able to continue with the project, the SC28 is on my short list, a really beautiful boat. Aloha 🤙
Just finished all episodes, looking forward to your next. Know you must be strapped for time as you work. Loving what you're doing.

Going to have to get creative with this repair!
**the wind was *blowing* the dust way from my neighbor....
Great Content bro!!👍
Keep up the awesome work!❤️🙌😊
Still working on the boat?

Thank you for the insight and encouraging words! I love the CD28, they were definitely on my list. Do you still have your CD?

Dude, I am refitting the exact same boat !! Not quite as rough shape but same water damaged floor and berth bottoms!
Awesome! which hull# are you?

@@JimmyOnions1 Definitely send over some pics. You didn't happen to buy her in Connecticut did you?

Gave up eh?
Really enjoying your UA-cam channel, do you have any concerns about the hull becoming malformed with all the interior stripped away and no supports?
Thank you. The hull has held up great without any bulkheads. If it was a larger boat I would have been concerned.
