    Repair videos are like an elixir. Having damage like that, and Teal to fix it, is UA-cam gold. You ought to bang a few more chunks out. Maybe the bow? For me, it's far more interesting than watching you eating tacos etc. Anyhoo, glad all is well!

      Tried to pay as much as he could ??? Have to call BS on that ! He owns a boat, takes his friends out and has enough $ to buy gas and alcohol but not enough to cover the damage he is responsible for ??? Sounds like typical mexican attitude toward Americans ? Not all but I'd say a lot. With the marinas attitude, I'd have to put out a warning to avoid that marina.

    Hmmm not a bad repair using an Oreo cereal box template as your guide there Teal.
    Linh shuddered slightly as the sound of "Thicken epoxy" job filled the air. Upping the game once again.
    Emma is delighted with a week long stay with a pool to explore while her parents fix the boat.
    Compass is sorta like- Meh I've seen this routine before with the humans- just make sure you feed me later on.
    Cosmetic surgery while you wait for Basik. Such is life. Hurt but not injured beyond repair. It IS above the water line here.
    Glad you all are safe, the boat is still operational, just the principle of having this delay caused
    by a skipper under the influence in the marina. Beware of the bathtub helmsman when in a foreign port.

  • @peterpeek4831
    @peterpeek4831 2 роки тому +2

    I liked how you did the repair work. Although the visible damage was on the port aft, I'm sure you looked on the stbd side for scuff and cracking due to the impact of the other boat. I have to assume the side defenders took up the squish between the cat and dock. It would be a good idea to inspect your load bearing connections between hulls before going to sea again, and check it a few time after rough seas to see if the impact didn't stress your hull/create micro fractures.
    Thats the thing about collisions, impact in one area, can affect other areas of a boat.
    I know Teal would do a better job at repairs (from past episodes), I wonder what would of happened if the boat driver actually came over to do the repairs himself. Too often people are ready to just offer monetary repayment, when the right thing to do is to offer to do the repairs themselves.

    I have come to realize you are an ace at tackling most anything. The first project that I remember was the heating system you installed. But I think the hard cover over the cockpit rates right along side. I think you done a better job than the manufacturer or it would have been built that way. All three of you make a well oiled crew.

    Well that was a clever repair. I'm new to this channel, and also more into trawler type boats, but your approach to things and your outlook are quite inspirational. I'll stick around.
    Teal reminds me so much of Adam Savage from Mythbusters.

    Even if the entire boat was destroyed, I bet you guys could rebuild it if there was only a small 2cm piece left. Skills are skills!
