Hi mate Yer quality job mate . Love the content, it don't matter how much it cost. As you can do as you please for what fits your needs, in comparison it's cheaper than a new boat. All the costings are negligible as you got what you want and strong and lighter than before. condensation it needs moisture, oxygen, its air tight I believe. Back in the 80s 90s as a small fast boat. In shore boat these where a good all round fishing boat, family day boat they just slapped a bit in a close sea. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🍻

Thanks, im glad you enjoyed watching, exactly it would be nice to have a new boat, but they're well out of my reach and thud way I'm able to make it how I want it. They're a good, stable fishing platform, so perfect for the family 👍

Surely you will get condensation in compartments. Cold sea ,warm day.

@LoCalFIshing_ 11 күн бұрын

Only from the air trapped in each compartment which will be negligible and its all completely sealed so shouldn't be any issues. If you took an empty bottle an put a paper note in it sealed it up and threw it in the sea it could travel around the world and the note would still be dry.

Amazing job, what's your estimated cost in materials up to this point and how many man hours roughly? Great work👍

It's difficult to say as I haven't really kept track of it but all the fiberglass etc is probably £5-600 and then a sheet of marine ply costs me around £70, I'll try and work it out as accurately as I can and pop it in one of the videos 👍

Hardly belt and braces as you put it Not sealing the bottom or edges of that ply to haunt someone else later , you can talk about messages in bottles but fibreglass isn't a plastic bottle .

Every edge of each board is completely sealed, there'll be no issues for anyone I the future. The principal is exactly the same it's a sealed container unless you introduce moisture it can't create its own.
