Sam, your channel inspired me to learn how to sail and buy a bluewater boat. Just signed up for my first lessons and got a job to save for the boat. Smooth sailing!

Hey Sam, I'd advise a locking carabiner on that ascender. Love the channel.

She floats!!!! Good to see you back on Pickle the first night she is back in the brine. Thanks for sharing Sam.

I would have printed the urine funnel with the glow filament. 😄

For future reference, if you use a lot of the glow in the dark filament, you'll bore out the brass nozzle surprisingly fast. So if you start having bad quality prints, remember that nozzles should be considered as a consumable. Thats a hard issue to troubleshoot

Nice progress Sam. You are an inspiration. One note: The ball or other fitting on the end of a whip antenna is called a "corona ball." One purpose of this ball is to dissipate static electricity which can damage your radio. I'm not sure if it would make that much difference on a sailboat with the other stuff that generates static electricity. Just thought I'd share the info.

Sam the boat looks great, so impressed by the way you've done all this work,and the positive attitude you face whatever problems you encounter. Good luck in the coming weeks.

Consider adding a layer of tape around the antenna just above the windex to keep the windex from getting blown to the top of the antenna. At 30kts the windex can go to the stopper at the top of the antenna and waggle around enough to quickly fatigue the metal of the whip antenna and break it. Sounds crazy but it happened to mine.

Yo up Sam my dad was Sam Parsons , I never new him he left this planet early at 24 years old . I was 2 years old . Hey Sam I’m praying for you man your cool and brave . Ready for gods challenge .

Wow: Cleat Bulkhead Hangars, 3D printing, tutorial on CAD, and courtesy flags. One word description: AWESOME!

Awesome work! Cant wait to see you on the open water again, Keep it real and stay safe man!!

Nice to be on the water! No boat is ever really finished, right?! 😉👍👍

Nice!!! Love the list!!! Man I want to go sailing!!! Thank you and it looks great so far!!

Sam, instead of mirrors to watch your bow movement, have you thought about mounting a bow-cam. Blue-toothed to your phone or a small monitor in the cab. or both. It would cost little money

Put the proper bolts in the guard rail station as you only put temporary screws in it.

Love the cleats-as-hooks-idea :)

What an interesting mode of transportation, sailboat fuel=wind, you don't have to worry about running out of gas.😊

Why would you not do a thorough detailed cleaning within all of those repairs and upgrades?

Hello Sam... Stay safe and God Bless 💗 you

Looks like things are coming along nicely!

My favorite channel

The boat looks amazing!

Looking good!

Make sure that carabiner is rated properly, a lot of those are just for keychains and not supporting lots of weight.

happy to see the progress!

re sole boards,etc... imagine your boat at 90degrees or upside down...and then what needs to be held down...

Awesome Sam 👏👍 take yr time gettin ready pls !!😊⛵

Love your videos. I’ve never sailed, so I don’t have any unsolicited advice for you

make some kind of glow in dark thingy so you can see the compass at night since there is no light in it, like a half dome shield over it

9:50 Oh man! Looks like you might be sailing to the Azores! I'd love to see that voyage! :]

So you are planing to sail up to us in Scandinavia. Looking forward to see you in Stockholm :)

Great job, Sammo!

Sam I’m learning life lessons from you brother completely inspiring. When will you set sail?

I see a nice Croatia flag there. We've been here for 3 years and will be here for 1 more. Hope you make it here before we leave.

that flag collection is awesome

Famous last words: "I put them on temporary and switch them later"

Always put a screw gate karabiner on your harness......

Almost ready hell yeah !!! ⛵❤👍

Welcome in 🇳🇱😀

6 Months of Work to do in 2 days....................All hands on Deck.........

Back on the water! Lookin great apart from that carabiner, please swap that out for something more suitable.

Any plans to stop by Poland? There is a Tall Ship Races event being held in Szczecin, right at the border with Germany from July 31st to August 4th.

I am big on all these new videos!!

I wish I could move that fast when fighting my mainsail back on the boom......

Looks like unwrapping Christmas packages! How cool is that?

Your videos really are the best! Can't wait to see you back on the ocean 🤍

Looking great 👍 ⛵️⛵️😘

Sam...was that a keychain carabiner?

I’m looking to purchase a westerly bilge keel . I hope too meet you in the wind someday .

Do you bush the holes where the wires pass into the mast?

Your boat's looking really nice Sam stay safe always out there on the water you do have people out here that care about you and you have a lot of fans I'm one of them good to see you doing good hope to meet you one day that would be awesome anyways take care and God bless I'll be here waiting for your next video. Watching from Roseville California USA Ray Garrett

About the end of your stay on public dock, where to? SailPack replacement? Bilge covers float? Latch held them down no? Glow in the dark filament nice, start labeling what to print next. Edge of hatch WindVane ends Table corners. Was thinking mohagony v. PlyWood pipe berth: it's the epoxy resin as much as cross grain... I was reading on salvage, prize, etc and false flags during war time (started from Trafalgar and booty term caught me eye) if ask for assistance and get some may be giving ownership lien of boat, to rescuers... I'm still not sure she will stay afloat, but I'm a depressive, therefore pesimist (sp?), Opposite optimist, aka realist. Like the task board, with some nautical terminology makes more sense. Been several decades since I sailed, and taught a little. Newer tech came along, foils, d* materials, sailpacks, solar became more affordable, etc. Transition to shop was a jump 🦘... Lookaround from mast head may have been fun, see neighborhood, as it were, few drone shots since moving boat with truck.

I so wish I was at this stage. See the stage I am at if you dare.

Nice 👍

Another Nice one. Did I see the Norwegian flag there? ETA?

Sam are you brining the 3d printer with, in case parts break

Where abouts in UK you headed for Mr Sam

Shiter in the front love it

did you get a new impeller and an impeller removal tool wtf

You sound tired and stressed, to me. Take your time - there's always next year. I think the two things every solo-sailor needs are 1) crew and 2) another boat.

Hey Sam can we come see you off on sail day?

I keep Telling you Never Sez coumpound on your bolts

Rather than cutting that thing for the rope...why not 3D print a a rope guide?

At 1:49, you forgot to include sleep! Get some rest before you embark on the big trip!

Sam secure those hatches they good be lethal in a roll over. Take a # 12 screw grind half of top off leaving the slot. Screw in cent

please get a locking caribener. don't want ya falling from that mast.

Come on, Sam, I'm looking forward to raising the Croatian flag.

Hey Sam why didn't you do the majority of this work when the boat was still out of the water? It seems to me like it would have been a lot easier to accomplish most of this list while the boat was in the back of your shop. I'm sure there is a logical answer or maybe you just dying to get back on the water. LOL

I love you. Please stop eating next to the mic :p

THIRD COMMENT YAHOO!

Hey Sam when you're ready to sail away let me know if you're going to rent your sugar Shack out

I see you have a Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 flag Sam get your ass over here so I can buy you a beer 🍺
