Billy and Sierra; Looks and sounds like a Lehman-Ford to me. Preparatory maintenance hint from a guy with 40 years experience with a Lehman-Ford in his trawler. I noticed in the pics of the engine when you were filling coolant that you don't have a spare alternator belt led and cable-tied up out of the way for the day the existing belt fails (it will - they all do at some point). If that happens now, you will have to disconnect the coolant hose to put a new belt on, and go through all that involves. Better to get the replacement belt led before hand and tied up out of the way. Then, when you throw or bust a belt at the worst possible moment, putting the backup belt on is simple. I loved watching you work on the trawler. Hey, wasn't the video of the waterproof shoes you were repping at the beginning taken in the San Juan Islands? We're located in Friday Harbor.

the Napa Valley Marina owners are old school Sicillian family, Tula crew work ethics surely won the heart and minds of the Harbor master and owners. Best of luck getting a covered slip while your stay there in the marina. The marina deli has day old salads and deli sandwhiches for a bargain. There's a 1987 35' Grand Banks under the cover slip also resides Humphrey Bogart African Queen. The motors of the Grand Banks are up in Oregon and freshly rebuilt last season and are same motors, they may be for sale at $3000 for both. I have the phone number of the Grand Banks owner and so does the Harbor master. New power plants may up the value.

Uh-oh! Water is needed through the engines and not needed inside the boat. Very interesting exercise of apparent frustration that appears just around the corner of a sinking sensation but Billy appears to calmly restore everything together for the good and success of a great day in the annuals of sailing a fixer upper that needs to stay a upper above the waves of the mighty ocean. We get to see the serene call of Billy's sweat wife Sierra who is over 100% backing her laboring husband onto a joining of fellowship and caring success. Thank you for a wonderfully great video. Very entertaining with a whole bunch of learning curves. Now's the time to continue on Tula's Endless Summer!

You kids did an amazing job of bringing the outside and mechanicals of that old girl back to life. I have no doubt you will do the same for the interior. This truly was a project of epic proportions that you decided to take on. You've shown that yes it can be done but it takes an almost abusive amount of effort and solid determination to make it happen. No one should ever take on a project like this or even smaller if they can not or will not dedicate the time and resources it will take to see it through. I'm so happy for you kids and hope that while remodeling the interior you take the time to enjoy finally being able to be off the hard. You did say one thing that made this old man's ears perk up though. I apparently need to start looking at marinas and yards to find something someone else simply gave up on that is within or very close to my comfort range to take on. Who know's I might find a $0.50 boat or one that they actually pay me to take off their hands. Then maybe I can start making my own dreams a reality. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication to this channel to teach us as you yourselves learn new skills and prove that, yes it can be done... Fair winds, following seas, safe travels and God Bless...

I am a gear head/go fast boat guy and have built several cars and a couple of boats. You are right. Ya gotta be real, and ya gotta stick to it..and keep at it. And you'll get there. My first boat experience was when I was about 10 my Dad and uncle went partners on a 31 (?) ft Owens cabin boat that had been neglected. This boat taught me about sanding, and Mahogany, and Teak, and varnish. I spent weekends and summers busting my tail on this boat, under close supervision of my Dad and uncle who were rebuilding both engines. When my work was done my Dad took me around and showed me what I had accomplished. This was the first time I saw it as a total project, and I could tell he was proud. I learned an incredible lesson...and every time I smell the inside of a Mahogany Teak Boat, or see a Can of Man-o-War Varnish...my mind goes back, and I smile. God Bless both of ya.

Thank you for adding your good advice to people watching your videos that this really is possible but takes a lot of time and relentless commitment. That may be the most valuable thing you have done with your channel. I re-newed ALL the interior teak on our 1976 Pacific Trawler last winter (that's a LOT of teak), and even went so far as to do a French polish finish on every piece of wood. Probably 400 hours required. I knew it going in. But a lot of people underestimate just how much time and effort is required and then lose their motivation half way through. Your good counsel will help them stick with it.

I recently turned a school bus into a nice house and I've also restored a couple of boats now and there's just a huge underappreciation I think for how insanely difficult and unpleasant the task can actually be. Instagram and sometimes KZfaq can make everything look so easy and glamorous but in reality things always take three times longer cost three times more and are three times more uncomfortable than you guess. This stuff is not for the faint of heart, and if you do embark on a journey like this, you have to know what you're getting into. Or expect that you're going to find out

I have dabbled in boat repair work for decades on my own boats and this summer I have been working for a guy sanding, painting, fiberglass repair, wood restoration, (and more sanding) etc., of customer boats. CAN your average DIY person tackle a project like this? Sure, but be prepared for endless hours of sanding, lots of patience, confusing and difficult chemical reactions, (why isn't that epoxy setting up?) and so many dirty days. Part of the difficulty of their work is the size of the boat. Some of these same jobs on a 20 or 25 coastal cruiser are FAR less intimidating. On a massive trawler like they have, everything takes 5 - 10 times longer. Also be prepared for a long learning curve as you dial in the techniques for making your paint and repairs look professional. It took me two tries to get bottom paint done properly. The first time I didn't sand enough, so the next year I had to start completely over, and it took 2X more sanding. It IS satisfying, as fiberglass boats are almost indestructible, and it feels good to "recycle" an old boat and bring it back to life!

Well said! Couldn’t agree more with your final thoughts and reflections after tackling this massive boat project. Super impressed with how it came out.

Congratulations! from another deFever owner, I once spend 5 years building a 43' catamaran from scratch so I feel your joy of floating again.

I can only imagine how frustrating that must have been trying to figure out that leak being so tired and after all the stress of the launch. You handled it so well! It pleases me to know you are having a great time enjoying the fruit of all your hard labor! 💪👏👍

Both of you have worked so hard on that boat, but it is looking great!

I don"t want this to end. Entertaining without humor that makes fun, entertaining without violence.. This show could go in so many positive directions for their audience. What a wonderful example set by the unassuming co creators genuine and obviously real the opposite of Dr. Phil. Call Warner Bros they are in trouble and need content. At least take this to a trawlerfest where they make new friends and show the trawler around. No generational riff for a change like Archie cause making progress is fun and enjoyable to watch. No politicians ripping up someone elses script did I mention cooperation actual cooperation.
