Man!! We need a David Shih Master Class on how to proper shoot transitions, how to shoot more creatively and the list goes on!! Your videos are just so good and we miss you and Mary!! 🥰

EXCELLENT EYE PROTECTION!! proud of you brother. I know it seems impossible but each day brings the dream so make every step count. You are telling a story for your grandchildren!

Keep going forward budy and stay strong soon you wil sailing again and on e much stronger boat ow yess

David, you became my favorite! Thats a lot for me to say, as I'm a Parlay nut (even bought the tshirt lol ). You're vid is creative and entertaining. BONUS to catch a glimpse of Jamie (really miss him), and always a treat to see Colin. But you!!! You're going to become a YT 🌟 ⭐ 🌠! Keep at it! Can't wait for the next one!!!

Morning David...this morning I have watched two lesbians in vanwives,Colin on Parley and yours is still.the most watchable channel..I'm sleeping in my van in the heat at the start of the wet season here in tropical far Northern Australia so can appreciate your situation. I spent 3 yrs rebuilding a catamaran in a boatyard that was previously a swamp in Port Douglas.mozzies sandflies etc...like where you are,amazing scenery but sweating like at Vatican choir boy in 42 Celsius and 95 % humidity..never ceases to amaze me how toxic boat repairs are compared to the healthy lifestyle at the end..your videos are so watchable because they are so easy to relate too..keep your spirits high and don't forget to enjoy the beauty surrounding you..best of luck mate...its all worth it in the end.

Great episode. One step closer to launch. Hang in there buddy, you'll be in the water soon.

Damn David! The amount of work and editing you put into your videos!! Fantastic! Thanks!

You are spot on about the power tools. I love Milwaukee.

Just loveing your videos on your bulkhead issue and life in Panama. Super cinematic and digitally creative. Kind of interesting to think about the entertainment value for your viewers but the chaotic, excruciating reality for you. You've got the intelligence, charisma and gift for gab to be an ultra successful KZfaq channel. Love your channel!

Blood, Sweat & Tears. Keep it up, David your an episode closer to your dream.

OMG I'm dying right now 🤣. Nailed the video bro

First off congrats! Every win is big win and you are so in the zone now! Second your video production quality has gone through the roof! Great video this week. A bit of everything and everyone and a compelling story to boot! Cheers brother! Grind on....

Well done David , I’m digging the rewatch , Thankyou Dude , so cool to see you and Colin helping each other .

Your attitude in the face of this challenge is the best! Next week's video looks pretty crazy. Can't wait to see to the rebuild. Quite a different kind of job from Parlay. Big respect!

Keep going, you will get there with your determination and belief and in the end have a very strong boat to enjoy with your family.

If Lagoon has increased the price of the boat by 10K and done the job properly, no one would have this nightmare. Epic video, your editing skills are super

Progress. Good going. I saw Jamie so this must have been awhile back. No matter, keep up the excellent work. We will continue to follow your adventures when you are able. 👍😎👍

Great video… The preview of the dust next week is breathtaking (pun)..

So when are you and Collin going to buy that marina and turn it into a destination? Bigger prybars and a sawzaw with a long blade would have done those screws in. Sometimes you just have to get mid evil on that crap. Get some sun on those legs to dry your skin up so the glass fibers wont stick in you. Also take cold (as possible) showers after so you don't open your pores letting glass in during a shower.

Great work, I’m itchy watching the video.

I was a bit puzzled, when I saw Parlay with no transom extensions. It all become clear when I saw Jamie ))

That pic of where you are - broken boat or not - BEAUTIFUL. XXX

I like whatching you guys. Im also a carpenter. Love the progress

Another excellent video from the Shih-di Master. The interior removal force is strong with this one.

That was a great night you had on Sophisticated Lady, Colin, Odd Life, and the crew. We now know you can sing.

Well done mate. Top episode. 👍

David awesome job on the video!! Loved the music and edit transitions you have stepped up your game big-time! Wishing you all the best and hope you get back on the water soon!

Your face when saying Colin's piece just popped out😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I usually laugh throughout your videos just because your luck is about the same as mine......apparently my life's moto is Never Take The Easy Way😂😂😂😂😂😂

Dave use talcum powder on exposed skin when suiting up and it will massively reduce the itch at night.

I would suggest putting the vacuum can outside. The filter on that will miss some of the fine particles and exhaust them back into the surrounding air. Also of you can put a large exhaust fan over one of the ports in the area you are working (seal it well so it is only drawing from inside), that will create negative pressure in the work area keeping dust from reaching other areas of the boat.

Hey David you are working so hard - it's going to be worth it in the end!

Panama Lagoon Adventure continues with the bulkhead repair! Smashing the uploads lately! Keep up the hard work! Looking forward to the finish line and splash! Cheers from the States!

I am a Big Tool Nut. The Number One Thing about tools. The cheep tools DON'T LAST! So you spend More Money in the long run in replacing the tool. I know it hurts to spend the money on the Best tool 🔧. But you will save money 💰 by getting the best you can get. That's why Mechanics change so much because of the tool costs. But get the best to save money 💰 in the long run. Ok Great Video this week! Until next week. Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii

These videos are starting to drop on a regular now, Dave is finally picking up the slack 😁 Love the content man, thanks for the filming/editing tips the other day.

Yes david ,a hell of a job but 3 guys more you can fix it within 7 weeks . Working 9 hours a day. . Keep up the good work.

Dudeee this is amazing, thanks for sharing!

keep up the great attitude and keep pushing forward.

Brother you are doing an awesome job…! You deserve a beer.

Do you just feel like Superman after preserving through all this? I want to quit like a dozen times in each video and I’m not even on the job. That looks terrifying. Like climbing Everest…in flip flops. You’re a hero dude! Great videos tho. Dramatic. Funny. Informative. Love the duct tape band aid. I saw a Tesla owner wedge a couple of oranges in his steering wheel fool the autopilot.

5:30 you need your Y down there, we car camp in ours lots!

I’ll binge watch all your videos this weekend thumbs up all wish the vids was longer

Keep digging David you be sailing the deep blue yonder very soon looking good JT 🇺🇸🇺🇸🐠🐟🎣🛥🌴⛱🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Great video. Glad to see the downtime enjoyment as well as the work.

Great video! The post production editing is great!

I've been seeing you in all the channels, Sophisticated Lady, Parlay etc. You're famous! Is everyone gravitating to Panama?

Wow lots of hard work!! Keep rolling looks like a lot of great progress!!!

Who you gonna call.......GLASS BUSTERS!!! Love your work...again. Wish I was healthy enough to come and give YOU a hand (can't sing as well tho)

Your videos spread energy and a lot more beside being very alive, ingenuity. Looking forward a series of video's

Amazing, doing all the repairs work and also doing video and editing and keeping the positive attitude. 👍👏👏👏

Good attitude man. Rock on.

Please do your best in protecting your lungs from fiberglass. Same goes for Colin to. All your hard work will be realized on launch day. Enjoying your videos. Aloha!🤙

Looking at yours work. 😅 I now that you will fix it! Thomas from Sweden, in Gran Canary now! 😂

Great episode

Watching this is horrific. What you are having to go through just to fix your boat! Someone should be accountable for the damage these boats have suffered and the suffering on the owners! On a positive note. It’s good to see a complete novice going about the repair in such a positive way. Keep on rocking man! You got this! Gonna be interesting to see how you are going to rebuild those cabins as well.

This might be one of the best Vids yet !

I don't know if you could get a hold of some fans to place over your upper hatches sucking the air out to help get rid of the dust.

Love this channel, your growing fast! Keep the great work. Have a knack for editing.

Good Times in the fiberglass sauna! Making progress! LOL 😂 Duct tape fixes everything!

Solid work.. I'm sure that will be better than new!

Awesome transitions!!!!!! Killer slow-mo !!

I like Rigid tools, and the warranty. Great work, keep going.

You really got "screwed" on that bulkhead. Nice to see fiberglass means you're getting closer. Keep going doing great

Next time you need to work with fiber glass , in the gaps areas that would be exposes apply NIVEA cream … on your skin and you’re set to work. After you’re done rinse off and you’re good as new. A simple trick i learn. Cheers for the fun videos. 😷

Your editing skills are fantastic. Now just make your videos 30min long 😁. Need my David Shih fix every week, FANTASTIC.

That is incredibly hard work. I'm looking forward to seeing things coming back together.

Wow David, I love that mask! It looks like it protects your lungs and your eyes from fiberglass! I do hope Lagoon is paying for all of these repairs, but I’m not holding my breath. Panama looks beautiful, but I hope you can make it home for the holidays with your family.

Your Editing skills are on the rise my friend. Great videos. I gotta give it up to you.

This cat should have been rated as a weekender for fresh water environment.... Shame on Lagoon and their so called engineer! The structure of this Lagoon is poorly designed and this company should have picked up the repair tab. Impeccable work from David, Colin & Crew on this project. You guys have now a sound structure for extended cruse ....

if you can't get the screws out of the bulkhead. just put a hole saw over the screw and drill it out.

Just binge watching old videos... love them all!!

Heroically well done. Also loved yall being on SSL with Capt Rick ❤

David you must be one of the most positive dudes I’ve seen Ito dealing with a shit deal. Reckon Milwaukee or De Walt should consider a sponsorship I hate ryobi it’s cheap sh@t. Between you and Parley you give a transcendent meaning to diy. Greetings from Cape Town 🖖

Oscillating saws are awesome in certain situations. That said, a reciprocating saw is much, much faster in areas open enough to use them.

Really looking forward on how you are going to rebuild all your cupboards. Also once the grinding has finished the fibreglassing starts. Shitty job but you got no choice. Best of luck mate. See you next episode.

Beast mode 💯😎

Holy Hell, watching Colin go through it was bad but man David it seems like yours is even worse. I pray you can find the materials you need in a timely manner. Looks like with next weeks episode you're going to have it all ground out and prepped? Honestly I truly wish you nothing but the best and your speech at the end about why you're doing it was spot on. Fair winds, following seas, safe travels and God Bless...

D, another fun video that brought us right there with you! Loved the AC / Car innovation and then Murphy decides to join the party and knocks out the power! Love your attitude and positivity inspite of all the challenges! Where are you in your videos vs real time? I see Jamie is still on Parley so you must be months ahead by now?? Looking forward to next week! Fair Winds from Boston

I feel for you man. That's serious work there. Jamie's still around so I guess it's delayed a fair bit. I hope your seeing some light at the end somewhere. Nice to see Colin giving a helping hand too.

Holy sizniz Dave u is tearing it up lol. And yes fiberglass dust does suckit large...lol Good progress though

Great job!!

Wow David, I've done my fair share of dirty jobs from hell, like sandblasting steel and even inside of a steel water tank inside a submarine NOT FUN!!! Considering I am 195 cm (6" 5in)tall, luckily then not as fat as I am today so I actually could get into the tank. Well all those dirty jobs I hated so much was in Sweden so there was not much of a heat factor even though you got hot but doing what you guys are doing down there in Panama in that heat!!! I am starting to feel that the job I did was a holiday compared with your job. I am impressed with your work ethics and still you take your time to do this great videos. Great work!!!

Hi DAVID; from south of France

New upload Me: 🤩🤩🤩

I would highly recommend using barrier creams to prevent glass itch, factor fifty works quite well if nothing else available.

Not sure how you did it, but the video quality was exponentially better on this release.

Come on Milwaukee Tools. Hook David up with some proper tools!!!!! He is going find more problems with this boat and will need them. Great video and editing. 👍🏼🇦🇺 #Milwaukeetools

Hell yah bro ! All the videos! Love the content ! Still waiting for the hair transition ha ha

Love the remote David! Next time that your home, we need to look at automating my house!!

Wow! I am speechless. And still no support from Lagoon? Man I love your sense of humor! Awesome job.

Cheers bro! I know this is nasty work [in that heat!] and in these videos you are RIGHT in the middle of it! But I admire your upbeat attitude towards even the setbacks despite working alone and not having a "Jamie" to work next to. Looking forward to the progress! Keep it up

David, when you have epoxy or polyester resin in the screw head, just hit it with a torch for a second or two and your screwdriver will go right in...

Dave I’m no engineer (dad was) but I’d guess that Colin’s having gone thru a hurricane was subject to maybe a little more strain and the reason his came out so easily .. and taking time to cover your skin from fiberglass will lead to much better sleep at night .. good luck on the repairs and like the rest of the sv vlogs - keep making content and I’ll keep watching .. eventually want to get out on the waves w you guys .. working towards that dream now .

You seem like a cool guy, I hope it goes well for you!

I watched you guys on the musical with Captain Rick...I am subscribing to your channel too!

Hi, how are you, greetings from Indonesia, good luck, cool video

Best luck on your hard work man, hope all went well. T care. ( loved that duck tape first aid transition I do the same...:)

Great video! How warm is it over there? Here in saukville Wisconsin USA it's about a cool 49 degrees! And that's pretty warm for November 21st! 😎

If only the bulkhead would have had three layers up to the top. Well, soon it will and there will be two seaworthy 450s out there.

If you have glass dust just hanging in the air inside the boat, just take a box fan and tape a hvac filter to the front of it and set it in the middle of whatever part of the boat you are in and let that thing run day and night. It will eventually cycle all the air through that filter and take most of the particles out. Bonus points for making a box fan "sandwich" where you put the filter between two fans, one pushes and the other pulls for stronger air flow through the filter. I think I already told you about the "lint roller" hack. Take that roll of duct tape, pull some out, wrap it back around the roll in reverse onto itself then roll it on your skin. Once it loses its stickiness just rip that piece off and re-wrap another length. Makes the best lint roller in the world for pulling fiberglass right out of your skin like magic. If you want to cover large areas, just reverse wrap duct tape around a paint roller. You may laugh but besides pulling out fiberglass its amazing at keeping your sanity when you need to pull dog hair off you comforter or couch or whatever. Over time I end up with a paint roller that has so much tape on it that it weighs 5 pounds and is big around as a loaf of bread. Oh well, just more surface area, haha..... Glad you are making progress friend, hope it's all going well. Hang in there!

I've been benchwatching your video since las night ! love your content !!! Notice you got a lot of new subs overnight to!! congrats !
