- In this video we start varnishing the toe rail and make some good progress up in the v-berth. We also get to check out a really cool project. A group of friends are restoring an old Cheoy Lee sailboat similar to ours.
Thanks for watching!

really like the locker door!
You gentlemen do amazing work ! It has been such a pleasure to see your craftsmanship and attention to detail on this labour of love. I look forward to coming along with you, albeit vicariously. Thank you for sharing.
Hello i notice in 2018 you used cetol why the change to Varnish how did you find the cetol.
Hey guys- this is a wonderful series and a real inspiration. How did you finance to project and whose shed is that were all the work is taking place? Finally, to date, what has the boat cost, parts and labor.
Just a little tip when you're varnishing put a little can of varnish and put a candle underneath it because it will lay down a lot easier.
I found your site a week ago, and I'm caught up. Now what do I do?
Great while it lasted....
It's not over... Not yet
Where you guys been. Give us an update.
Keep a weathered eye on the horizon
I know it may be damn cold where you guys are, but checked in to see any updates. Really like your boat work, detail and videos. Cheers to more wind in your sails for 2021.
Will be posting an update soon. Thanks for checking in!
Went to buy a shirt to help support the project. Will you be restocking out of stock colors in XXL or should I find a different color?
Just looked into it! We don't control what's in stock so we'll reach out to the company that produces the shirts and try and get an answer. Sorry about that!
Hello, how do you like using that premixed epoxy fillet in the tube? I saw some reusable tubes for standard caulk guns but have not used either of them. I was thinking to beef up my deck to hull joint along with some 17 oz cloth on the inside where it is hard to get at. Saw your epoxy gun and thought that would be easier to use in that awkward location. Thank you for any feed back.
I would definitely recommend it. Kind of pricey but makes the work go faster and you don’t have to worry about the thickened epoxy going off on you during longer jobs. Good luck!
@@SailBros cheers man
just binge watched your entire boat restoration play list, now I'm jonesing for more content ;)
On the way sooner than you think, thanks for watching and sticking around!
Great progress on the V berth. I like the wooden door that came from the fridge.
Looking beautiful !!
I bought a shirt and it gave me +10 sailing ability and +20 bedroom ability. Thanks guys.
That V Berth is looking good. Really Nice Video Guys, Keep it up!
The part when you guys are joking about how long it takes got me, my partner and I bought a little 22ft back in January and I thought it would take me about 2 months to sand and refinish all the wood, ended up only finishing last week 😂
Took us a long time to learn that lesson haha!
I love Cheoy Lee's, they have nice classic lines. That is some project though! Did you have any problem getting that blue painter's tape off? Is there a limit on how long you can keep it on before it sticks more or less permanently?
Why not paint the anchor locker before closing it all up?
Nice work you guys! We just removed the toe rail on our Cheoy Lee and replaced it with a bulwark. We are stoked on it! Cheers!
Thanks for posting and sharing. I watched your boat from the beginning, and will have to go back and watch some of your earlier episodes. Hard to believe Corky was in worse shape than your friends' boat that you visit in this episode.
Why so few people use rollers when they do a better and faster job in every respect.Way to go.
hello nice job 👏. I am continuing to look for a good boat and no luck. saludos see 👀 you on Galveston Bay Texas name after a founding father BERNARDO CONDE DE GALVEZ. saludos
I just binged the full series of the restoration and the quality just keep getting better. She is coming along real good and you've been a big inspiration for me. Thank you so much and keep up the good work!
Great video. Being in Texas sunshine I would consider really building your varnish up. Like 12 coats minimum. I would hate to see your hard work fall apart down the road. You are doing great keep it up.
Yeah it's definitely something to consider. It's such a tedious process, but the effort to do more coats is probably worth it. Thanks for watching!
Corky is looking fantastic guys, good vid.
he could repair the masts by fabricating a new step, with a slug at the bottom to replace the damaged part, and shoulders around its top to support the mast base. I had to do that on my ally keel stepped mast on my Pearson, because the bottom was subject to corrosion due to electrolysis differences between the previous steel step and the mast. I think it was pretty much destroyed below about 80mm
Hello, must feel great to start putting things back on! I have a question..why would you choose hot glue over silicone? Thank you:)
to keep it in place?
Looks very nice. Great idea repurposing the cooler door.
Love your choice of colours that has really projected the boats sexy lines and well envisioned sheer, well done folks.🇺🇸🇨🇦
Thanks!
Nice job! Maybe you can put that rubber sealant all around the door over the chain locker - in rough sea quite a bit of water gets there..
That’s what I was thinking. I will definitely get a good gasket in place before I set it up as a legit chain locker
so much awesomeness since the first vid- great journey bros- thanks for taking us along-
Thanks for watching! More to come!
Y’all should sail the the Monaco Grand Prix, sure it’s quit expensive but ehh why not lol
goals haha
New sub helping you to get to 20k. Nice series. When will you splash?
Thanks! Hopefully soon. Don’t want to say a date. I’ve been down that road.
that hull shape has always been my favorite.
Folk boat?
Cheoy Lee.
I was wondering how this was coming along. I gotta thing about folkboats.
Great job.
Great video! The boat looks Great!
Thanks!
Loved it.
Great to see progress on “Corky”.
Loved the inclusion of another project.
Thanks! We like checking out other projects. If people enjoy that kind of stuff we might try doing it more often.
Looking good.
Before you buy a boat you need to learn about boats, you want as long of a waterline as possible, waterline length equals boat speed, yo have long unsupported overhangs instead = slow boat
That’s ok. I’m not in a hurry and I like the look. Thanks for watching!
the "overhangs" were designed to lengthen the waterline when on a heel for faster boat speed, while allowing better light wind performance. Great boat and pretty as well.
