    Hey Rosco, a random idea for your davits. My mate has a 65 foot Azimut motor boata d the best thing on it is a hydraulic platform. The tender sits on a removable cradle on the platform when underway and at anchor it can be dropped into the water as a swim platform. It is awesome and something that I would love to install on my Lagoon.
    Your davits should be able to hold an Alloy platform plus Tender and would add a lot of convenience to your boat.

    Doug from SV Seeker mentioned you this weekend, first I'd heard. Watched your first video and your last, got a lot of catching up to do, looks like a really interesting build. Looks like you've done amazing work so far as well.
    Thank you for sharing.

    I love the pace you are going. There is another build channel that has been fairing for more than two years. You definitely are doing things the right way, and it all looks fabulous. I love the custom bit you are putting in all over the place. Great stuff.

    The small aft locker you are already refering to as an icebox. Sounds like that spot might warrent insulation and a fridge unit before you spray???
    Just a thought???

    Yes, most Kids (families) don't like to be "micro-managed." They feel like you don't trust them... I know I felt that way when I worked with my dad!

    Hey Ross. I was just wondering if you have a drainage point in the bottom of each locker. It is very important as water will get in there.

    • @LifeOnTheHulls
      @LifeOnTheHulls  7 місяців тому

      Hey mate, each lockert had a direct drain to the sea with a skin fitting.I expect every compartment to get water in it, one of the lockers will be for propane so direct drain to underneath the bridgedeck is critical. Thanks for following.Rossco

    • @LifeOnTheHulls
      @LifeOnTheHulls  7 місяців тому +1

      I could calculate it I guess, I know the hull was over 1500kg of vinylester, and gelcoat.Lost count after that.
