  • LAHAKAI SAILING // ⛵️ S1 Ep45 // For the ultimate liveaboard life, we are installing a second hand Mini Electrolux washer and dryer into our sailboat for the ultimate boat conversion to home! However, even though this is the smallest washing machine we could find, it might not be small enough for our tiny 34” boat. But we want boat life and sailboat living to be comfortable so Fernando, our expert woodworker, and ourselves are up for the challenge as usual! We are about half way through our boat restoration project and things are starting to get interesting as the interior takes form! Check out all our refit videos for more small sailboat interior design ideas…

    This was a fun little challenge that we didn't know was going to be so challenging 😅😅 Are there any little luxuries you have or would like to have on your boat that you think are essential?? Be careful not to give us any good ideas or we just might try it out (can't help ourselves).

    Don’t loose track of the additional weight that is introduced…If you know the weight of the empty steel hull (including the keel weight) then you can calculate the ballast to displacement ratio..
    Can you still find the original specs as designed by the boat designer..?

    Really good job fitting the washing machine. Sometimes you have to think out of the box to find a solution.

    My question is how is the machine going to vent the heat from the motor running. It needs air circulation to the back of the machine to keep the motor an electronics from over heating.

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  10 місяців тому

      This little machine was designed to be flat against a wall so it doesn’t need back ventilation nor does it have an exhaust for the dryer. We will however put a some ventilation holes on the side of the interior of the cabinet to give the cabinet some air circulation. As you said, always good to keep machines at a good temperature.

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  10 місяців тому +1

      Ola Anderson tudo bem.
      Muito legal a sua ideia mas o problema maior na máquina de lavar é a centrifugação, ela vibra muito e acredito que o suporte não é construído pensado em uma vibração constante e forte.
      Mas adoramos a ideia.
      Sempre estamos tentando achar uma solução inteligente e funcional e ter comentários como o seu sempre são bem vindos.

    A máquina de lavar não precisa ter o mesmo nivelamento pendular do fogão, para funcionar, pois mesmo que funcione desnivelada isso não implicará desgaste maior de componentes?

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  10 місяців тому

      Não conseguimos ter um nivelamento pendular ( Gimbal ) com a máquina de lavar pois em uma centrifugação as forças são aplicadas em várias direções tornando a máquina mais instável. O ideal é lavarmos as roupas em situações de mar mais calmo ou atracados. Mas com relação a problemas nos componentes acredito que não será o caso.

    • @lahakai
      @lahakai  10 місяців тому

      Ola Sergio, tudo bem? Sim, o peso da movelaria, equipamentos, tanques, eletrônicos e eletrodomésticos foram calculados e distribuídos no Lahakai. Na viagem que fizemos do Rio de Janeiro até itajai foi importante para termos uma noção melhor de como o barco se comporta com a distribuição de peso. No caso dessa viagem estávamos leves e com peso mais concentrado do centro da embarcação.

    Hi! been watching your vids for a few weeks now, love how your dream is coming along! question I have is that I see the custom interior is all made in MDF (or what looks like MDF). Do you guys have plans to waterproof/resist the interior in case of water getting inside? I think the wood would swell/mold if you have any water or in humid conditions because its not sealed. anyway, looking forward to the next video!

      @lahakai  10 місяців тому +4

      We're glad you are along for our journey! How are you liking the build so far? The wood we are using is high-grade marine plywood. The wood is raw right now as it is just being modeled. But it will be treated and sealed soon. Stay tuned for that process! Cheers!

    hello from the Himalaya mountains . thank you for your inspiring contents ,preparing for the far away seas .i just subscribed and want to offer some thoughts : you chose a metal boat ,which is stronger and recyclable ,instead of the more environmental problematic 'plastic' boats ,something I would have done as well. a wash machine ,needing less water and giving more ease has mutual benefits .hopefully you research and store organic soap ,keeping to your more conscience oriented trajectory . you made previously a toilet content episode : what about using the common asian method of using soap and water, instead of toilet paper and could a safe stern seat be created ,where even women can use easily the outside in fresh air ,instead of using the inside toilet, since it ends up in the sea anyhow (away from shore ) ? .as an alternative emergency propulsion ,what about fixing a sliding holder for an outboard motor at the back ? personally ,I would try to avoid gas and fuel ,trying to use wind-solar-....energy as much as possible ,but an emergency outboard and emergency camping stove/heater might be good to have . in general ,once you are sailing ,dedicated content to environment preservation and healing might have mutual benefit for your channel and environment .you are an excellent story teller and more is needed in environmental activities on the sea and for visiting islands ,for instance concerning trash .
    one last thought : what about a sailing dinghy ,that can be rowed very good as well ?
    you are currently at an excellent wood workshop and that could be done in wood ,even as slide in wood/epoxy model (extending size and use ,by storing 2 halves into each other !?
    heartfelt greetings ,wishing you 2 and your boat and channel ,the very best !
