Never knew these boats had such a thick amount of body puddy.

You are doing a great job! Your boat has now become your new lover! When you are not with her you are thinking about her! That what happens with a boat rebuild!!!!

Very nice insulation work in the mechanical room. Good week

I am beyond impressed with the amount you have learned through this project, I love that you not afraid to show your mistakes or even that your not a boat builder. This channel will give many people who want to do this that extra push because they can relate to not knowing a whole lot. All you need is the will to do it and the rest comes with trial and error. Thank you for documenting these.

I cannot believe the amount of effort you have put into this project. I have enjoyed each and every episode from the very beginning including the interesting and humorous commentary to the occasional music. I hope that in a new future episode you include a celebratory gathering of friends showing us all how much fun you will be having!

You've done an amazing amount of work...congratulations !!! With the sound insulation, you might want to tape all the seams with metallic air conditioning duct tape to make it a continuous surface. Noise can transfer through the small seams and reduce the effectiveness of the sound barrier.

I found you recently and love your work and videos. I’m addicted to all forms of boat restoration on KZfaq, you are among the best in my view. As for the suggestive pattern on the hull, it’s detail looks intact and correct from someone from a French speaking country! All the best on the project

I am glad that You Tube prompted your video as it is just the type that I like to see! Your calm narration and good videography makes for interesting, informative and entertaining viewing, and your choice of soundtrack adds to one's enjoyment! I particularly like your vessel, and an really pleased to see that you are investing the huge amount of labour, materials and finance needed to bring her back to a seaworthy condition. I shall enjoy catching up on your video archive and am pleased to subscribe to your channel. Whilst I usually can't stand videos which contain sponsored promotions, I wholeheartedly support sponsored promotions of materials used in the actual project and which may be of interest to viewers like myself, which this particular product is!

This is the best bost restoration on you tube..its memorizing to watch..you will end up with a boat better then it left the factory..I love your sarcastic humor ..its hard to believe the amount of work that has gone on in this restoration..your knowledge is incredible very few people could take on a project this huge ..I look forward to all of your videos..you make my day.

You have brought us an amazing project brilliantly done. This 'shitty' boat is outstanding in its perfection because of your precision and dedication. Congratulations for turning a 'rust bucket' into a prime example of craftsmanship!

It has been really good entertaining fun watching you rebuild this boat. Seeing the damage it had and especially how much of it was hidden would have been daunting to most people but you just tackled each job as it came up. Your ingenuity and coming up with ways to deal with it is just inspirational

I love the lines of your boat. Doing a great job, can’t wait to see it in the water.

I feel a lot better about my boat after seeing the amount of work this boat requires . You are fearless and makes me want to sort my boat out ASAP . You are an inspiration .

I can only say, I am extremely impressed at you attention to detail on this quest. Your insulation/ soundproofing was a masterclass on its own. You have turned this collection of issues into a practical, functional and beautiful craft, truly worthy of a proud captain. I can’t wait for splash day and subsequent adventures. Congratulations on your hard work.

You are getting to know everything about your boat. Every centimeter of it.

An amazing project. You've done so much.

Love the Yacht and the music!

Your new stylistic editing and running commentary is increasing in humor and overall entertainment value! Well done! :)) I came for the project. I subscribed for the creative videos!

Well Done, This is going to make a huge difference with heat and cold as well as noise reduction. It looks like an amazing product and you did a very good job installing it. Very nice!

This has to be the funniest episode you have done yet. It cheered me up after a bad day. Thank you from the uk 🇬🇧

with those adhesive insulation sheets, you may wish to consider using a roller to really press the whole sheet onto the wall, to ensure a really good adhesion!

Great job. The editing of the videos is spot, on. Really digging the whole build.

You said not to comment on the shape of the damage of your patches. But I think you should be changing the boat name to CakaDik

It's all starting to pay off, great work can not wait to see it on the water.

It has been a mammoth undertaking and your efforts are amazing - well done

Nice cameo role for the screw driver!

The insulation looks great make the engine room look so clean

This is a man on a mission. Great job. Can't wait to see it run

Very nice job installing the insulation on the walls, they look great!

I look forward to these videos every week now. Love the editing, humor, commentary, occasional music and the boat! I'd donate if I didn't just buy my own first boat, lol

It is really very nice and satisfying to see how, despite a lot of work and that not always everything is so easy, you still give everything to achieve your goal. I wish you all the best for the future, and you really deserve that beautiful old boat. And always a hand's breadth of water under the keel!

Love the reasoning behind the name change 🤣👌🏼 looking forward to following this build.

20 year boat builder here, great job.... 👏

HAND ROLLERS DOES MAGIC FOR APPLYING THIS PROPERLY. CARRY ON.

If not for the courage of the fearless crew, the Minnow would be lost.

I'm not jealous, I know what work you are doing. I'm staggered at the thickness of the various fillers and paints. I just finisher repainting my 16 year old yachts deck, third time, I only have 4-5mm layer.

Very good, you impress. Looking forward to the next video.

Great Video and your presentation was exceptional. Thanks from America. Seems all countries have boat yards and people that love living on the water. May we all share that love along with Peace !!!

Next time I start a project and then want to quit because it gets too hard, i’m gonna turn on your videos for inspiration. Man, I am impressed with your dedication to this project.

I started watching your videos yesterday and blitzed them all. Seriously great work done.

the word has many meanings when it is used in a personal sentence... damn a person. he is a brave person

looking forward too your next postings. thanks for the view.

Sometimes you have to make choices that may not be right but are right for you, You have taken on a great responsibility that most would walk away from, keep up the good work, forever forward. Hello from Milford Ct. USA

Great work and I'm glad so many chipped in to help you along. More channels should follow your lead. A lot people making a small contribution can make a big difference to a project. I hope that is what happened to you - given there were too many names to give us all a mention, I am assuming that was the case. Looking forward to the next video. Thank you.

I love the narration over the time lapse... I just caught these in the recommended column and started with this one. I find myself wishing we knew what it looked like inside... the layout... and I wanted some idea of what you want it to look like when you are done. You've probably done all that in earlier videos so I guess I have some uploads to check out.

That’s great what you’ve been doing in your project ! Great videos ! I enjoy a lot ! And you are right : put the boat on the water and fix later on ! Important thing is start sailing ! Congrats !

The first boating video´s with good music

Oh my... you have 1 hellava’ sense of Humor!!!!😂😂😎☮️❤️👍🏻👍🏻

Cockhull seems like a fitting name. 😀 You’re doing great work. Thanks for letting us follow along.

Doing a very nice job looks great.

the commentary just keeps getting better

This has been an enjoyable restoration to watch.

Amazing work, sir!! (Your name escapes me, lol) I cannot believe how far you have come this year!! Keep it up!

Doing great it looks real nice

A nice isolation product you found there. Very interesting.

Well done man, getting exciting for you now.

Well I think you have done a wonderful job on your boat, quite fantastic and hard work. Happy sailing.

So excited.....can't wait to see it sailed... And also later..... Full time lapse...

What you're grinding away is "fairing compound" Used to "fair" the hull... Or give it the final shape and smooth. Fairing compound is much different then just normal "filler compound" Investigate this and discuss it with your local marine supplier... From the looks of the trapped water you'll more then likely be removing all and starting from a bare hull.... When it comes time to do this find a local that has some experience with this. There's is a trick and process that will help a lot with your final result... You'll need a yard that offers blasting service. Looking good. Keep it up!👍

Interesting and the music was wonderful. I'm a sailor who used to play the violin. Good luck with your ongoing project. It looks good so far.

Just found your channel. Ive always wanted to restore an old boat.💸 Great job! Enjoying your sense of humor.

Every week your videos get better and better. Great job!

Deeply respect!

You have the best background music on KZfaq. Beautiful!

thank you for sharing!

You have a good friend, him letting you use his van.

Outstanding work.

-- Excellent narration! Thank you.

Wow that's one hell of a first boat

Well done!

Great work!!

Looks like you are going BALLS DEEP Into this build.

Wow. I’ve enjoyed this series so much. Can’t to see her in the water

man cant wait to see the final result, ive been following this channel from it 1st video

Looking very good, The soundproofing is a good quality item When you can see the boat better it’s got good lines and nice look, Keep up the good work But have fun👍👍

For all the spaces that are cut to big or just hard to reach you can get sound deadening paste to trawl in.

Probably the best video so far in this series. I laughed my A-- off at your commentary while you were grinding the hull, too funny. To date, what you have done with this project is truly impressive and I cannot wait to see the boat in the water! Great work as always. One suggestion, you should introduce yourself in your opening so we can all relate to you. I've been watching you do your thing for months now and I still don't know your name!

Good by Cakajo, hello Cockajo

Nice engine room nice and big easy to work around thats great 👍

I just bought that exact same sander to sand my boat. I attached my shop vacuum to the exhaust tube on the end and I ended up with virtually no dust to clean up. Just a little food for thought.

your neighbours will be so happy when they come to collect their nice clean boats and discover 5mm of grinding dust over everything.

This is a great video. It's amazing the different shapes, sizes and types that boats come in. I would really like to do something like this in the Bahamas. Lots of exploring to be done!

Awesome video and great entertainment. Even the background music fits perfectly!

I concur with Michael Franz. Very educational and enjoyable. Thanks.

im new to this adventure and im looking forward to this build !

Super bravo for this video, your courage, the thoroughness of your work .... your boat will be very pretty ... !! Big hello from France, Vincent

Love your project. I really enjoy watching.

Good work.

Love the music. Strangely fits so well with the project. A mixture of joy and tragedy!!

Love your videos. Keep up the great content.

Love the music, and ofcourse the great work!

Great video series. I have really enjoyed seeing your hard work and the transformation of your boat. By the way, "wall" on a vessel is called a "bulkhead". Floor = deck. Door (if watertight) = hatch. Stair = ladder.

Great job Swede, I don't know your name so we'll go with that. Looking forward to seeing you sailing.

1 week left until floating!?! How exciting for you! Congrats. Looking forwards to the next epidode of exterior patching. Good luck freind

Have to say for a boat that’s not being sand blasted, you’re doing a good job with what you’ve got.

Looking good

nice work, nice music.👍

For me it’s a perfect way to handle patching the outside of the metal hull, they’ve been doing car bodies exactly like that for as long as I can remember (60years), except yours is on a bigger scale, anyway, think of the positive, it will help with the ballast 😂😂 great job, take care my friend, 👍😃

Wow what a difference a from an ugly duckling to a Swan nice work loved watching you transform her

Ultimately, a strip and repaint would be best but understand that's not possible where you are. The thickness of the bog on the hull is incredible, this would add so much weight, also the bog being hydroscopic is where all your problems are coming from with the blisters.
