I've just binged 28 episodes in a row, All to do with the Re-fit. How ironic is it that I buy a yacht yesterday and I spend all Aust Day weekend Anti fouling my boat and when I get home the last video from you guys is your Anti foul job. Amazing job guys and I can't say I will be doing any refitting like what you have done. Thank you thank you. Now I start from the start. Ep.1

Watching Pascy upset had me wanting to jump on a plane and come help sand it back with you. I too had a 2 part paint mishap and it was very frustrating. My "Lil'Squirt" is not as pretty as Mirool but she's as good as I could provide being my first time painting in the hot Texas sun. Thanks for the raw emotion and the window into your experience, it feels good to know we share something so far away. Y'all are fantastic!

I have loved watching you Pascale and Troy. I look forward to seeing your new adventures.

There is something to say about doing a good job regardless of who knows, you know and that counts. I work wood and I strive to make the joint the best possible I can do. No one will ever see the joint (unless it's sawn apart) but I know...and that is what counts. I admired your effort.

If you haven't been watching Tips from a Shipwright you have been missing out on a really great resource. Lou is a no fluff do it right with the tools you have kind of guy. Truly simple methods but if it needs to be right it is about prep not the tools. He is also very good about supporting folks. A few of the channels I watch have at one time or another mentioned his help. Glad you guys are able to take a break and regroup. Teamwork and especially teamwork when you are in a relationship is so hard to manage but the rewards of figuring it out together and seeing the job as "ours" to do and seeing it done no matter what that is something! Thanks for keeping your sights on the important thing, each other!

Another interesting point. If you understand processes and best practice it takes just as long to do it once and get a show quality finish as to fix mistakes twice! That's where the expression 80% done only 50% more comes into play.

I greatly appreciate you both being eco friendly and rolling the paint job on your beloved Free Range beauty, I understand your frustration with the vendor not knowing their products intensely they are offering. This seems to be a more common problem as the masses populace seems to not care about any thing but taking your money with the least amount of work ethic. This is rampant here in the USA. Just like you guys I have to research products before major projects to educate myself before using them. Truly enjoy your youtube video channel. I know its a tons of work to produce quality vids. keep on producing them as it inspires me to sell my business and sail to world.

Thanks for posting guys! I’ve just spent the last six weeks in Tasmanian waters and I wondered on more than one occasion whereabouts you were. We arrived in Tasmanian waters in late December and managed a full anti-clockwise circumnavigation. Our passage down the West coast was incredible! 25-40 knot Nor’Easterlies and the temperature was in the high twenties! It soon changed dramatically when we reached Port Davey and I am so fortunate to have seen that part of the world in those conditions. Looking forward to catching your upcoming episodes guys and seeing the lovely lady in all her glory!

It’s like I am watching along and the video comes to Pascale in the car distraught 😪. I’m with Troy, painting can get me so frustrated, I prefer to go off and only talk to imaginary people 😂. Attempting to paint outdoors in the elements and various humidity is a challenge, I so identify... I learn something new with every attempt of a paint job and I am 62yo! The roller type, nap height, material of roller also has effects 🥴. So much to learn .. You two have put heart and soul into this refit and it looks awesome in the videos 👍

Honestly as much as I like the refit videos, it’s not quite freerange sailing without tuna being pulled onboard and noodles in the kitchen! The tape work on the hull was epic, well done.

I was stationed in Menorca, Spain back in the early 80s. One of our power plant guys had an old Seat (Spanish made Fiat) that was all rusted up. He fixed the body work and then took the paint they used to paint the diesel generators on the site and painted the car with it using a brush. I thought it would look like crap but it came out really good. If you came up and sighted down the body you could spot an occasional brush stroke but you had to really look close to see them. I used to love to go down to Mahon and watch the sailboats there and dream of sailing the Mediterranean Sea. So beautiful, f they had left me there I'd still be in the Air Force.

I follow another youtube channel for learning how to paint and do fiberglass work. The name of rhe channel is "Boat Works Today". This guy is very good. He tries out all different brands and compares them. Like fiberglass or paints. And he even explains the cost differences. Plus he even talks about the tools that he uses and different sand papers. I find him to be very informative. And if you text him he even texts you back. Not just for information but to basically communicate.

Hi guys! love your shows! I know it's late but I have been a painter with my own company and a couple rules for my crew of up to 13 was... 1- it's not how you put it on... but how you take it off. 2- always brush from dry to wet when "laying off". 4- don't "paw at it" but long strokes work best if possible... then don't touch it... let it flow out. 5- don't be cheap with your first lay on because you can take it off quicker than you can put it on. 6- Nylon for latex... china bristle is best for oil based otherwise it "ropes too much as it dries. Never china bristle for latex because it clogs and seals the bristles. 7- I always dedicate the brush to oil or latex never interchange back and forth. I hope that helps someone... you guys are doing a great job and I (an old dog) have learned some new tips. We have a lot more in common Troy... fun stuff... we could swap stories! Til the next one.

@yachtstargazer3148 3 жыл бұрын

Great video guys and it was nice to see Troy trust his roller and not overwork the paint with a brush. I've been rolling two part paint on my own 40 year old steel hull for many years and only use the brush for around edges and fittings etc.... We only use the 100mm (4") roller on my 65ft schooner as it is much easier to control the flow and keep an even pressure on the backstroke. Another point is we use a quality Foam roller (Stanley) and switch it out to a new one about every 5-10 minutes. The secret is to not let it get saturated with paint and let the ionization process when it starts to tack off flatten out any lines you first see. Most people think it is sprayed. Love your videos and have learned lots from you both... Nick and Zaida... StarGazer

Awesome workmanship you two! That’s how it goes, you have to know as much if not more when dealing with suppliers, it’s CYA, or you gonna have a nightmare on your hands sadly, it’s like we have to know everything today, because the skilled labor, and experience has left the industry for one reason or another. You both need to be real proud of yourselves, and I’m sure Pascale gets the girlfriend of the year award, particularly during those trying times 🤙🏻💕🙏🏻

I love your idea of raising the deck fitting attachment points by 10mm above the deck surface.People may not think too much of it unless their deck with its balsa core sinks in every time they try to stop leaks in that deck. (Like my 50 year old one) Naturally a little pond forms and adds to the aggravation. I have had to use two cans of spray gutter sealer on my deck to stop the leaks till I can install the fitting raising fiberglas escutcheons! Regarding your spiffy polycarbonate windows. I can assure you that you can resurrect them should they get un-spiffy by using a drill mounted polishing wheel and LIGHTLY polishing with Meguiars Mirror Glaze or equivalent. I performed miracles on my slightly mutilated Lexan motorcycle helmet visor using that substance. You two have a fabulous show. Very informative.
