    Hi guys how's progress going on your boat. Well, more to the point, how are you? I haven't seen you for a while & was hoping all is ok in your world. I can only imagine how this project could possibly get you down. I'm also trying to fix up an old steel boat. But I'm only putting bandaids on mine because that's all I can afford at this point. I really admire how you have tackled project & how you have fully coated the inside in order to keep the rust at bay. That is something I dream of👍. Hope to see you soon.
    Keep up the good work 💪 SV Kiwi Lady Opua Bay of islands New Zealand 👍🏿

    When you sail those "oddly inclined seats" will make a lot more sense!

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Місяць тому +3

      The angle of the benches would have been suitable during the most agressive heel. But since this is a liveaboard boat and not a racing boat, then the living spaces, including the cockpit need to be comfortable while at rest as well.

    Lithium batteries are not orientation limited due to "dry cell" technology.they have clearance issues for heat dissipation.free form the battery layout for accessability.

    We have an electric motor, basically we are sailing without an engine except for the last mile, loving every minute under sail, going old-school. Amazon Brazil has some amazing deals but foreigners should get a CPF online before arriving in Brazil.

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Місяць тому +1

      Ah yes, the dreaded CPF is quite annoying. Good to know you can get it online!
      Thanks for your electric motor feedback! Did you opt to have a backup generator too or are doing well without?

    • @rainfinger
      @rainfinger Місяць тому +2

      @lahakai We have a backup generator 2000w is best, but we are using 1000w, making do until we can get a larger one. A backup is necessary Toyama generators are available from Amazon Brazil.

    You need to have large drainage holes in the lower ends of the battery boxes in the hope never needed but we'll worth drilling out now

      Great suggestion! Good looking out! Cheers ⛵️

    Just watched a sailing video with 5 days of no wind where on a 34 ft boat are going to put enough solar panels to keep enough charge to run your boat.Well like everything else you have done on the boat you have a to do multiple times when are ever gone to lean

    • @allenwade6087
      @allenwade6087 Місяць тому +2

      More and more people are going all electric,first , always plan trips around weather patterns with multiple days of no wind , modern weather gear provides the capability to do this. Second, LI batteries are awesome,, Third , these two aren’t stupid, they got this..

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Місяць тому +2

      This is very true @allenwade6087 . Uma says this as well. Traveling with their electric motor is a different kind of sailing. There is a lot of planning to understand the weather and the boats capabilities. It has also made them step up and become better sailors so they can get the most out of the wind. Also, Technology has come a long way in a short period of time, and we're very interested in seeing what we can build and how it performs.

    Mais um vídeo incrível!!!!!!!!!!
    A cada vídeo fico mais ansioso para construir o meu! Vocês são ótimos!!!
    Principalmente a parte de marcenaria pois, o casco (alumínio), vou contratar um estaleiro para construir, achei melhor e que seria uma ótima economia de tempo. Mas o mobiliário e interior com todos os sistemas vou ter que encarar.
    Muito obrigado por mais uma vez dedicarem tempo para compartilhar com tantas pessoas informações sempre valiosas!!!
    Beijo grande no coração de vocês!

    Yes agree all videos need numbering so we can see them in order

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Місяць тому

      Ah interesting, we were thinking that people just went on our page and found the videos in order. Are you watching on a TV? Is that why it would help to be in the title?

  • @Grumpyauldman503
    @Grumpyauldman503 Місяць тому

    It’s all still coming together, well done. Can I commend the video editing. Just wondered who does it, how did they learn and what software is used, great use of graphics to explain things!

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Місяць тому +2

      Thanks so much! 🙏🙏 Luke and I do it all 😅 We use DaVinci Resolve free version and taught ourselves. It's really straight forward and its easy to find how-tos on YT when you want to try something new.The Pro version of the software also looks great and we'd love to upgrade one day (just a one time fee evidently) but so far the free version is working out just fine! Cheers!

  • @jeffreylord8172
    @jeffreylord8172 Місяць тому +3

    You are making a massive error, even with a big battery bank, you will not have the endurance of a conventionally powered boat, in the event of country winds, and tide , your battery's will not be sufficient for a prolonged run, I suggest you reconsider , it is your not only lives you place in jeporady , but those Sent to rescue you

  • @harveymcfaull1307

    Can you put numbers in your videos do we xan see correct order. Love the videos but finding it difficult. Especialky the ones were you are fixing the boat😊

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Місяць тому

      We can do this no problem! We had them in there before and removed them because we thought people could find the order on our video tab in our profile. Do you prefer watching our channel on the computer, phone or TV?

    • @harveymcfaull1307
      @harveymcfaull1307 Місяць тому

      @lahakai I watch them on my mobile. Sometimes I screencast to my tv

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  Місяць тому

      Thanks for letting us know! We have added the Ep# now to the titles. You can also head to our profile and under the videos tab, it default show you all of them in order from latest to oldest. Cheers!
