Banned By Sampson Boat Co? NAKED truth about Swinging in Boat Building (Ep71)
Рет қаралды 28,670
Күн бұрынAmateur Boat Restoration and Boat Building is about the passion for boats. It doesn't matter if you're restoring a fiberglass trawler or restoring a wooden sailboat! This week I talk about getting banned by Sampson Boat Co and what it means in the larger picture of my boat restoration and boat building projects.
Welcome to my boat building channel! This is my trawler restoration of an Albin 27 pocket trawler and a Skipper 20 sailboat. Every couple of weeks I post a boat building or boat repair video to document various boat projects, sailboat restorations, or boat repairs. And when all else fails, I tell stories of boat motivation. We do things a little differently in the Boat Werks. If you watch my channel you will see things you have never seen before on a KZfaq channel. Maybe that's not a good thing,! But we're going to have fun and I guarantee you will probably learn something. This channel is for real amateur boat building and boat restoration enthusiasts.

Joe, please keep doing what you’re doing! Many of us have sailboats and motorboats. These come in a variety of materials and having a channel like your’s where you show how to work on these different materials is very helpful. If other people don’t want to mix woodworking with fibreglass then they don’t have to click on your videos. I personally am very interested in the Albin FC27. I am also a larger guy and find the modifications you are doing very interesting! The head modifications especially. Thanks for your videos!

I’ve been thinking about that for years and had no idea others have been doing it. I fell in love with the look of the compac 23 pilot house. You will prove to be a great resource in the near future.

I’ve been a big fan and supporter of the Sampson Boat Company channel since its beginning. I’m familiar with the “friends” FB group as well. I’m sorry to hear about the negative comments putting down your type of boat work. There’s no place for that type of rude behavior. I also support your right to manage your channel any way that you want, subject to KZfaq’s guidelines. If people find your content or the images objectionable they can stop watching and following. By the same token, those who have created the FB group in question have a right to manage that group as they see fit, and can set the standards for what content they find beneficial. If you want to be included, all you need to do is change your approach. Or not; it’s up to you. Keep up your good work.

I saw that going on over on the SBC page and was disappointed…..it’s their choice to exclude what amounts to an advert for another KZfaq channel-for whatever reason, or no reason - it’s “their” page. I don’t have an issue with that, but the rude insults were unnecessary and disrespectful . I can’t imagine Leo acting that way- his fan base should take a chill pill! I also saw your explanation post and thought it was well thought out. - probably just keyboard warriors who have never restored anything let alone been to sea - you do you and don’t sweat them - they are not worth the time. Would be fun to see Leo pop up at the Werks though 😂

Joe there’s plenty of us sailors who fancy the east life of a trawler . The high speed crowd may not get along but they can learn from the process. Re Davit did you consider attaching the rig screw support to the top of the deck ? It would have more support being higher and the angle of pull would not cause flex . Keep up the good work I’ll get re started on my project soon too. Cheers Warren Ps I’ve been supporting Leo from very beginning when he was poor!!!

It’s not really talked about in the video but there is an angle for the support strut from the cabin top to the davit. The top of the cabin top is too tall and does not accomplish the same support. Thanks Warren 👍😁

I've been watching that other channel since nearly day one. It's been interesting to see the progress. To me, it was way beyond restoring. Now, with all of the modern upgrades, it's no longer a 100 year vessel. (I'm an old mechanic that loves a classic that's original and, since I'm older than dirt, I remember the original). It has become a visual copy. Other things I don't like, but I would like to see it sail. I have a list of boat channels that I like much better. I'll watch yours. Grew up centered around Saginaw. Gone since '77.

One trick that I have seen is to wet layup your glass on polyethylene, cover with poly, transport to your boat, peal off the back layer of poly and squeegee onto your surface and then peal of the outer layer
@motorcityboatwerks 3 ай бұрын
😳Gary: why didn’t I think of that 😆OMG that would have been the ticket 😁👍Thanks for the comment, I will be using that ticket next time. You can see me fighting the fabric on the bulkhead and I was cursing up a storm in time lapse. 😂
@CheersWarren 3 ай бұрын
Hi Joe , fiberglassing is my area of expertise, have been in the industry for 45 yrs. Using Polyethylene only works with epoxy like that as polyethylene wrinkles up with polyester resin , but epoxy is very sticky and would be hard to remove the plastic film . ( use cellophane with polyester). As you were using thin cloth that does not need much resin I would suggest putting the sticky epoxy on the surface first then putting the dry fiberglass cloth onto the epoxy . The stick nature of the material will hold it in place. Then add a little extra epoxy only if needed. But in this situation where you were trying to stiffen the panel I would have used simple polyester resin and 2 0r 3oz/ft chopped strand mat in about 12” squares , wet out on a piece of cardboard then quickly applied to the wall before the binder holding the fibers together breaks down. But it takes practice!!! For a smooth finish a layer of peel ply is good or a layer of dry fiberglass cloth that will stick and absorb any excess resin. Happily to chat about future fiberglass projects Cheers Warren

Also I believe you will remove the flex from your Davits if you can mount them direct to the deck. The intermediate channels you made between the davit and the deck are more than likely flexing as well.

Certainly possible but in video review it’s the deck and cabin top 😳
@chuckklima807 3 ай бұрын
I think it's a good idea to add some glass to that area, but I would have used 1708 instead of the 7oz cloth. It's a much stiffer fabric, and would build thickness much faster. I get about 1/8" with 3 layers of 1708 and epoxy. It looks like a pretty flat surface, so using 1708 wouldn't be a problem. It doesn't like tight curves too much.

I am late to this party but I will say it anyway if I may. First off the Davits flexing in themselves is not necessarily bad. It was difficult to see on the video if there was flex at the deck junction, of course the cabin top flex was clear. Anyhoo - on the reinforcement of the cabin top what you have done will certainly improve the strength but it will not improve the stiffness as much if you had incorporated two horizontal stringers (formed around closed cell foam. Too late now.😉👍

What? Swinging in boat building and there ain't no nudey ladies? Well that's just boring. Gees, I subscribe to Samson, and I'm going to subscribe to your channel too. Why? Well on the west coast, I have an old classic yacht to use for summer and right now I'm outfitting a 28' Cape Dory FlyBridge to use as a Florida boat. In 60 years on the water, the CD is the first poly boat I've owned, everything else has been wood, as I see advantages is both. So it's too bad the moderator of the Samson's Facebook page didn't like something. Who cares? We, your viewers are enjoying watching you do what you are doing and we're learning too.

I suspect that the weak link in the design is the eye strap: both the strap itself ( it is far thinner than the turnbuckle. It may be worth considering using a more substantial U bolt ) and the attachment to the davits. All the force is concentrated onto one flange of the davit. If the fixing were rotated 90⁰ then it would be fixed horizontally across two flanges.

Joe, what were your thoughts for selecting the mounting point of the turn buckle on the bulk head? --- Choosing a higher point would reduce forces in several places, also on the mounting point of the davits, though looking less elegant.
@motorcityboatwerks 25 күн бұрын
Great question. 👍It may not be apparent in the video but here is a limit to how high the turnbuckles can mount relative to the top edge of the aft cabin. There is an area within 2-3 inches of the top that is not flat on the interior. See the headliner videos. This effectively limits where turnbuckles can be mounted due to the sizing and placement of the interior backing plate. I feel the chosen position is the best of what’s available. Thanks for your great comment 😁👍
