The title says "To Do List" but it is really just our "MUST DO List" there are about 100 other things on our to do list but as any cruiser knows it is all about prioritizing to get off the dock. If you wait until EVERYTHING is done on your To Do List you will never leave. Also, we kept this video a little more Raw with no music at all, longer clips, and less cuts. What do you think? Would you have preferred some music in there?
Better without the music, as for us older folks is easier to hear you both.
It was great content and congrats. So proud of your progress.
This was a journey in it's self! Wish I had my crap together like you guys at your age. Good luck on the main voyage!
I like it without music. Some channels make it hard for me to hear because of the music and I don't hear well with background noise/music.
Videos like this are better without music. In general, the less music, the better.
You two popped up on my feed a few weeks ago. Just want to say you guys are so adorable. Billy you are so smart. I’m watching a bunch of your videos and enjoying them so much. $$$$ Looking forward to many more new ones. This grandma is sending prayers you two always be safe.
Hopefully you guys got through this project without getting on each other's nerves too bad. Not easy to do, working side by side 24/7. What you guys have together is something special that not many couples have. Cling to that like it's a life raft in shark invested water. I hope you're enjoying the fruits of all your hard labor right now. Give Jetty a big hug too. She sacrificed as much as you two did, I'm sure. God bless and best wishes.
I'm sure you wish them well but why bring up all that mud. They're having the time of their lives.
@Inka anyone who's ever done a huge project like this with a spouse or significant other, knows exactly what I was talking about. It looks like there's at least 14 people who know what I'm talking about and at least two people who don't. All of us, I'm sure, wish them the best.
Note to self… don’t buy a $100 boat unless Billy and Sierra are there to help you out! You guys are the best. Good luck. I love watching the progress!!!
I agree
Truly not for the faint of heart!
Your puppy is so well mannered
B&S you guys are the best ! I’ve never been interested in boats until you two came along , nothing phases you guys what a team you are. ❤it
To Do... Must Do... love watching your journey to all done!
I just found your channel . Watched the refit of the trawler . Looks beautiful. I’m impressed by the amount of hard work performed.
Real work ! Congrats !
Jetty is looking older but just as happy as ever Give her some love she's a good puppy dog 🐕
I never thought I would feel excitement over a new anchor but unboxing the big Mantus was sorta cool.
I always consider it to be boat jewelry. LOL
Too funny! I love the communication between you two about who gets to cross what off the "To Do list". Doing that is so gratifying. (When you think about it, it might be enough to harm a relationship between two people if one of the partners was too greedy about crossing off too many items..
Great episode! Stay safe Tula Team! Keep rolling! 👍👍
22.06 Dog hears a wrapper coming off and thinks FOOD !
'Rub Your Balls With Grease' is the best way to remember the proper anchor colours. Red, Yellow, Blue, White, Green.
Amazing transformation on your trawler. I live in Sacramento and have done a lot of boating in the delta and SF bay. Not much out in the open ocean. I hope before you guys head north you will take it out into some rough seas just to make sure nothing is going to shake loose or cause a serious issue that could strand or possibly sink you. A good sea trial in the open ocean before your journey. I'd hate to see something happen to you wonderful people. Anyway you guys are inspirational and I'm envious of your lifestyle. You two our living the dream most of us are too afraid to try. Cheers, happy sailing and safe travels.
They went North and have already sold the boat.
@@FredB916 WHAT?
@@ChrisLee66 check the channel videos... they bought it, cruised it and sold it for 85k. They are waiting for a new boat to be built I think.
And did a ton of work on it.
So sweet Billy giving Jetty a cuddle bless her. You guys, the boat is amazing the people you bought it from must be so happy with how beautiful she looks. Xxx Xxx 😀🐬
3:26, Jetty is supper cute!
Lots of comments from new subscribers that are surprised and impressed with Billy’s technical knowledge and mechanical skill. If you think this episode is impressive go back in the Tula archives to a much earlier episode when Billy overhauled his old Diesel engine in his cockpit while on the hook-solo. That hooked me on their adventure. Who would ever dismount their diesel auxiliary lift it into the cockpit onto 2x4’s and then tear it down are rebuild it before dropping it back into place. Yup, that’s our Billy. Sierra, what episode was that?
Thanks for sharing the finishing task's before setting out for the PNW. (yes I know we are way past this in real time, but it is enjoyable to watch)
Well done guys!!! Just catching back up on your vids. Missed a couple months
My suggestion for the new name: Talula, daughter of Tula. Thanks for a great channel, Merry Christmas 😇
Can't wait to see the tour after the clean up. ✨🌊💨🛥🏝️👙🌞✨
Your dog reminds me of our dog Sam. Sam's no longer around but a great memeory to see your oup has the same personality. Attentative and sensitive. I called my Sam, Sticky, bc he stuck with me no matter what project we did, building a feck for the cottage, sitting me with me on our boat and he hated alarm noises too.
When using multiple wraps of safety wire, best to make multiple separate turns with the ends of each turn twisted together. That way, if one loop breaks, the others don't come loose.
Being I am an old guy it's more fun to me watching you give an old boat new life rather than a new boat being built. Don't get me wrong new is good but I'm not convinced that boats built today are meant to last as long as these made then. Time will tell.
Sweet. That anchor shackle is a work of art!
I’ve watched a lot of HVAC technicians, troubleshoot, simple systems that they didn’t know anything about and they often use a jumper until the function they are trying to fix works. Even if it wrecks another function. The stories I could tell. You always have to check for smoke and heat. Anytime you start up something that’s been newly worked be prepared to shut it back down.
Sierra and Billy, you've gone a great job on your "This Old Boat" series! :¬) Webhead USA
I used teak plugs to fill all the old mounting drill holes from old systems, and it looks great.
You three are the best! Congratulations.
One of my favourite episodes!
It always feels great when you get to the point of finishing off all the items on the to-do list...
nice job. love the rainbow zip ties and that you know the order. so cool
Delayed driving out to my jobsite to watch this and have another cup of coffee!
Thanks for spending your morning with us 🥰
Smart man Billy good job.
Y’all have done great work guys
Congratulations! Looking forward to seeing your new adventures!
You are both amazingly talented!😊
If a window gets blown out on the trip north the dash location might not be a good spot for equipment with emergency communications capabilities.
Pac Cup we also had a plan/system for covering blown out windows if that were to happen. Just thinking about your trip north.
Doing the I-5 route at 55mph is a popular choice even with commercial boats use to rough water. Just saying 👍
Awesome work you guys.....You are so fun to watch as you affirm and help each other all the time. It is encouraging....You should be really proud of yourselves for such a big accomplishment.
Lucky girl got yourself a real man confident, tackles all things with logic and can do attitude and takes pride in doing it right instead of some jerk off with to many tattoos wearing shirts to small with his chest puffed out and doesn’t know what end of a hammer to hold onto
Awesome. Love y’all’s videos.
Billy, where in the world did you learn about Diesel boat engines?? Wow! 😮😮😮😮😮😮
Absolutely more raw footage . Don’t make things look too slick. Cuts when necessary to reduce viewing repetitive tasks, Timelapse and maybe using a clock face spinning to indicate long repetitive projects better . Music doesn’t really add much to boat projects . Overall have really enjoyed the boat work series and look forward to seeing you use the boat solve new problems, and work out the the inevitable glitches .
On your last video I saw you steering from upper helm. It did not look comfy. My solution is a wired or remote control for the auto helm. I once had a simrad wired remote that was fantastic. In addition to the regular features it had a steering only mode where the rotary knob in your hand was basically like holding the tiller in your hand. Each click on the knob was one degree of rudder. It had a rudder angle readout, and you could easily steer in rough waves with this set up. It was like sitting anywhere you want and having tiller in your hand
Good work!
I would put some an old rug down under the anchor so there no chance of any scratching.
Hay guys I like it raw! That is just me, you are doing a fine job so far. Love your videos, a good looking lady an a smart man what a pair. You two have done a fine job on the Boat. Wish I had two smart kids like you.......KEEP up the good work and the videos OK??.......... Billy in Tx...
Yass you guys rock
Another great video 👏
Yayyyyyyyy! You are the best! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow! Beautiful progress on the Boat! I bet its your last rebuild. Maybe?
Almost time to ship 🚢 off. Great video
Curious what you're doing for heat? Diesel heater...wood stove?
garmin recently acquired vesper but the support isn't up to speed yet. if you have problems, well, good luck. The brains that created the vesper product line are not employed by garmin so you can expect delays with updates, bug fixes and such.
That's a lot of work crossed off the list. how about that Grand Banks across the way?
If there is an elec fire you just messed up insurance so sort that panel out. Love the Vids.
I would mount the vesper in the roof. Out of the way and not collecting dust and water safe
are those engine room acoustic tiles asbestos?
You must have been an electrician in a previous life. Those wires look like a dogs breakfast. I love it when she talks dirty to you Billy (you ding dong).😂
Are those zip ties going to survive getting pounded by the roller and chains?
That is so good.
Sponsor yeahhhhhhh
Did that beep, beep, beep of that alarm in the background drive you guys crazy???
iye!
It is super simple to silence it or put it in "harbor mode" so it doesn't go off so often
Warning: These LED bulbs inside a navigation light is not to code. The old navlights were constructed to that expensive funny special bulbs with the glow wire strict in the middle - only with that bulbs they show the light at the defined angles. Think: the navigation bulb sends light from a very small point 360 degree. The Chinese LED bulb only emits some 20 degree.
👍👍 interesting update
Jetty girl is ready to go
Luv-Luv-Luv u guy's vid's... have fun an B-safe... Luv ya!!!..👍✌️🆒🤺🤺🤺
Mount it upside down on the roof .. ( The IAS)
Ah, I think the grease was for the swivel. How embarrassing, And darn it Billy that ADS B transceiver can be installed inside the cabinet where it is protected from both the sun and the water damage present on the ledge directly adjacent to it so you're gonna end up having to replace that too.
The grease came with the anchor not the swivel
I've never seen a new anchor and chain on a boat.
Does LORAN still exist??? Walked in the tube that fired from Adak AK in the 70s. Huge electron tube.. needed to be swept out weekly.
No music!
Always turn off AIS alerts in port 🤣
I'm so sorry that Billy didn't put deodorant on for the camera footage. 🤺🤺🤓👍👍☮️
👍
how much did it cost to turn it from 100 to how it looks now?
Full cost break down coming after we have some fun ❤️😍🐋🧸🦪
♥️♥️🥰🥰
Crap dirty old boat!
👍🙏👏
OK great job! But the "100 dollar boat" thing needs to be cleared up. Don´t let us continue to believe that we can do it too. Because that is a bit of a little pink crime. Don´t you think? Exactly how did you walk away with a "100 dollar" yacht that you have now realized a gain of some 400% on? In some several months I will add.
Sweat Equity
Not to mention it also cost them a lot of money for parts etc. The boat is not the same $100 boat. Watch the series of videos.
👍👍👻
Billy what do you think you're going to be asking for your boat once you get ready to move on to your new catamaran damn I wish I had a woman that would help do something you're going to have a new catamaran my dream I'll never be able to afford one I'm on a 40 ft Bristol sailboat in Long Beach California
Jetty is so cute! He’s been with you through everything ❤❤❤
She is the ultimate adventure pal and best friend 🥰🦊
I agree,❤️, ❤️, ❤️
👍
I kinda know how you guys are feeling. I have an apartment I've been using as a warehouse for about 9 years now while I worked on other apartments. It's in the final stages of getting done. That's a really good feeling. I think you guys are probably feeling about the same way now. Keep the good stuff coming guys and looking forward to what the next project.
You are completely right about AIS.
For me AIS is like a social network - give and get.
Long time ago I went with friends sailing boat around England. We often had encounters with big ships. They all obeyed us and mad little adjustments to their course for us.
You can tell good people by the way they treat their animals. JETTY looks as happy as can be! Big kudos to you both for saving what may otherwise have become another hulk littering the landscape. The boat is amazing!
Don't use DSC calls too often. If you call a ship that triggers a very loud alarm and they are annoyed. They like more the way via Ch. 16 😆
1.7K+ desktop shipmate LIKE, 10K+ views already. Y'aller popular on UA-cam. FWIW: fine without music, if that makes editing much more simple. One advantage for us watchers/listeners is: using the cogwheel speed settings, the replay can be watched in much less time: you speak clearly, so it's easy to do a replay at 1.5 or even 1.75.
Doing that with music in the mix isn't as pleasant.
Sure is so many items to test, repair, replace, in-order to get your Trawler looks ship shape and ready to get under-way. Your skills now, could possibly land you a job in the ship repair / tech. support field, if ever needed, as a last resort for income. Was noticing, (what looked like), at least three GPS receiver connection points on your main deck unit, (that would be a luxury addition to obtain better / more reliable GPS location info.). Congratulations to you both! Wow is an under rated expression, for the amount of work and dedication put to this endeavor.
Safe waters! You guys are living the Dream! Enjoy the moment!
Liking the idea of fewer antennae, and less clutter - enhancing the fine look of your restoration project.
Dealing with DMV in California can be a pain, but one step closer, Yay!
Awesome job busting out the list!!! About time to do some adventure trawling!!!!
Okay I was impressed with all the knowledge of running the diesel engines. The electronics is a whole nother ball game. I'm way impressed. The battery conversion, the inverter, installing the AIS, just taking out the old electronics is a major accomplishment, refurbishing the kitchen, the master stateroom, the forward State room are all impressive accomplishments as well. Let's not even begin to discuss all the exterior work the two of you have done. Super impressive, not your run of the mill boat refurbishing projects. I imagine just the materials alone are in the tens of thousands of dollars. I'm very anxious to see a final tally of all the costs involved in the improvements. After that I I am anxious to see the number of man hours you both dedicated to this project. If possible try to add a dollar figure for your time. That has always been my downfall when trying to determine whether doing the project myself is worthwhile whether it is home renovation or boat upkeep/renovation. In the end you guys are doing fabulous work, far above any pay grade you may assign yourself.
Awh thanks Mike!! We’re going to have some fun first but then we will make sure to discuss all cost and hours and if we think it was worth it!! 🥰😁 thanks for being with us on this journey!
Congratulations ..good to see you both are doing great..
Every channel I watch where work is happening, there is an adorable dog as supervisor... love it!
I like the way you did it. No need for music.
This channel is getting more and more addicting as the days go by..... Good video, keep making them....
Hope you have gone back to the beginning.. watching. When Billy lost the keys overboard & had to dive at the dinghy dock, 😱😂
