Welcome back to Trimaran Life. Last time we embarked on a voyage down the coast of South Carolina, aboard our friend's 47ft NEEL Trimaran. But, as with all seafaring voyages, we encountered our fair share of challenges and discovered more than a few issues with the boat.
Some of you were left wondering why this sleek and shiny new vessel seemed to be plagued with so many problems. But, as seasoned sailors know all too well, no boat is immune to the harsh realities of life at sea.
But fear not, we are not ones to shy away from a challenge! Today, we are joining forces with the owners of the Trimaran, Katy and Craig, as we set out to tackle some of these issues. But, as with any boat project, things are bound to go awry, and not everything goes according to plan.
Plus, we'll also dive into the reasons behind their move from their Nautitech 40 Catamaran to the NEEL 47 and whether they miss anything about their old boat.
So, gather your tools, roll up your sleeves and join us for some problem-solving. It's time to get this Trimaran shipshape again!

WE’RE JASON AND NIKKI WYNN. A couple of modern-day documentarians, perpetual travelers, and seekers of tall tales.
We’ve been chasing our curiosity around the world on wheels and keels since 2011. Why? Because curiosity is the key to unlocking life. It pushes us outside our comfort zone, softens our assumptions, and helps us embrace the great unknown. The more we let our curiosity lead the way, the more we discover about ourselves and the world around us.
Our home is also our transportation and we spend weeks away from civilization and sometimes land. Self-reliance and living a sustainable lifestyle are a must. It's all about managing our resources and we’re always looking for new and better ways to do so.
We've lived off the grid for over 10 years now in everything from a Van to RV to a Sailboat. And over time we have learned a lot about renewable energy, creating safe drinking water, and managing our waste.
Our journey is ever-evolving but the mission remains the same: #CultivateCuriosity

16:30 If it's a hard plastic piece just use a soldering iron on the brass insert nut. Just heat it up with the iron tip while pushing it in. The surrounding plastic should melt when you push the hot nut in and grabs it when it cools down . This is what people use on 3d printed parts when they need to constantly open up a project without risking the chance of the plastic striping out or cracking . They also sell a special soldering iron tip that's meant to heat the insert nut more evenly and faster but it's unnecessary unless you're doing a lot of these at a time and want to save some time . CNC Kitchen made a video about this if you need to check it out .

"We're in the US so it's easy to get them replaced" ah yes, the real reason to travel to the US...not to see national parks or Disney World, but to get spare parts 🤣. The ship horn censor at 2:59 is chef's kiss. Sure you ran into problems, but that doesn't change the fact this is still a neat piece of engineering. Yoshimi as in Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots by The Flaming Lips? GREAT NAME for a dog!! Yoshimi is so adorable! Wish I could put my arm through the screen to pet her! LOVE St. Augustine and all its cool history. I mean it says a lot when it was founded in 1565 and is still thriving today! The place may be touristy, but it wasn't always like this. For quite some time in the 1880s, the city was actually neglected until railroad tycoon Henry Flagler came in to build the city up. He built a large number of opulent hotels and promoted the town as a winter resort for the elite of the north to escape the cold. So St. Augustine used to be a railway destination! Atlantic City and Coney Island also became popular seaside places because of trains!

Love the Taping of the Screws idea. Another pro-tip. If you have a device with a lot of ports to plug things into, but only a few are being used, and you have to move or replace the device. Put a piece of tape over all the unused ports. Back when PCs had a variety of ports beyond just USB, I’d tell people this trick when they needed to relocate a PC. Made plugging it back together much easier, assuming you’re not an expert on what all the cables are for.

Really good vid, very much enjoy all the boat projects. When you repaired the hatch, that threaded insert is designed to be inserted under heat, use a soldering iron and push the tip into the thread then push it in with little force. The plastic melts around it and hardens making good mechanical contact with the knarled edges. They are used a lot in 3D printing projects. Hope this helps.

St. Augustine fun facts: St. Augustine's location was chosen by the Spanish due to it being easy to defend as well as having easily accessible freshwater. St. Augustine is not only the oldest continuously occupied city in the US, but it also has the narrowest street in the country! Treasury Street is only 7 feet wide! It connects the Royal Spanish Treasury to where the ships dock on the bay. This street was actually made to be narrow on purpose so thieves would find it too difficult to remove and escape with chests of gold from the treasury. The city's fort has had THREE different names as well rather than sticking to one. Castillo de San Marcos (by the Spanish), Fort St. Mark (by the British), and Fort Marion (by Americans).Congress restored the fort's original name in 1942.

If you're interested in Neel trimarans and what experienced sailors think of them, you should check out a KZfaq channel called "Carry On Sailing." The channel features a Neel 51 and the owner talks about pretty much all aspects of the vessel, taking it into really heavy seas, etc. Another channel is called "Sail Oceans," and features the first prototype Neel trimaran and the family who own and sail her. They've done just about everything imaginable with that boat, and are currently refitting it (in Poland, I think) to do it all again. A lot of people like to bash Neel for the quality problems they had early on (they're still a relatively young company), but Neel addressed those issues head on, made them right, and improved the following designs to make their boats even better. By comparison, people don't seem to talk about the thousands of people who've suffered catastrophic bulkhead failure on Lagoon catamarans (which have been around a lot longer than Neel). Doing your own due diligence prior to a purchase of this magnitude is a foregone conclusion. Just don't be swayed by people who like to talk trash without actually owning a boat of any kind. The Neel 51 has been kind of the sweet spot, design wise, for me, so it'll be interesting to see what the 52 brings to the table. So far, the pre-release pics look a lot like the 51, but will have to wait and see. Launching in September 2023, I think.

@@meadmaker4525 Hi Meadmaker. Thanks so much for your counter point. I was wondering about the bad rap that Neel was getting given how young they are and the completely unique design they are pioneering. There was also a 5 part series by Captain Igor who delivered a 51 across the Atlantic and had vey positive things to say. The new design will appeal mor to my Sylvia with it’s dressing room, larger head and better storage in the ama below the owner’s cabin. I also like the fly lounge. In the end I just love the look of this vessel. It’s a purely emotional reaction…but isn’t that half of sailing. Lol. Thanks for watching and especially for commenting!!

It’s funny that the people you meet sailing seem like my kind of people. Friendly, nice, well spoken and then they go away. I have a hard time with friendships. I prefer a lot of personal space. Getting together for a bit and then parting ways for a period fits me. My fiancée would take a road trip into hell with me, she is so committed to me. So then it’s became my personal mission to make sure the path I take is as smooth as possible because I don’t want her to ever question following me. I had dreams of sailing and now I’m not sure that’s a great idea for us. So I want to thank you so much for giving me a first hand look at the adventures I won’t experience. The repairs on the boats do not scare me since I’m very handy with tools. The sea does not scare me (for the most part) since I have many days and weeks commercial fishing on the Pacific Ocean, along with living for 50 years on the Oregon coast. I literally grew up where people come to vacation. Please keep sharing your adventures with us❤

In watching the latest Nautguys post I have a suggestion. I think you need to choose the place to sail to as the closest spot from where you take delivery of your boat to being outside the typhoon area. That means Borneo. From there you can either explore Borneo or move further into Indonesia. If you sail around the north end of Borneo you have a different set of options than if you sail down the Malaysia/Brunei side which would be the safer route..

Neel's are a lot of boat (like huge) for the price. That generally means quality suffers, whether its fit and finish or hardware. Neels wants to sell you the huge living space, that it sails well, and is reasonably in price. The saying goes that's three points of a triangle, you only get two. Most pick price and huge living space.

Nice boat, cute couple and great boat dog. We are lucky to also have a great boat dog (Sniff) and cat (Scratch) on board. Our cat hasn't left the boat except for vet visits in 2 years, but seems content to find a warm place to nap (he's 13 years old.) We noticed the bed was against the boat sides, meaning the person sleeping on the inside has to climb over the other person or shimmy to the end to get out of bed. That's how our Pullman berth is on a 38'er. As we get older we tend to get up in the middle of the night more often and it becomes more strenuous over time. It is not an issue for the younger couple now. But, they were talking about another boat in 5 to 10 years, so they might want to consider a walk around bed on the next one. I'm guessing that trimaran cost roughly 100X what we paid for our Islander. The bed issue would have been a solid "no go" for us, as if we would ever have a choice. Wishing you safe passages and fabulous adventures.

One little tip of my own, if people do not have that fancy tool yet on their boat: The siphon principle can be used just as successfully in reverse, by blowing into the tank, that you want empty. You need to make the hole airtight, for instance by wrapping a wet cloth around the tube and the neck of the petrol can or tank. I learned that by watching another KZfaqr, by the way. All, who has ever tasted gasoline or even worse diesel trying to start the siphon principle by suction, can see the value on that idea. Thanks for doing this one on boat problems, without making it a slander piece against Neel. I feel, that Neel is hugely underrated as it is, thanks to some catamaran review channels in the past, who talked very negative about Neel in their reviews. Neel is absolutely on my top list of boats, if I won the lottery, only shared most likely with Windelo 54 really.

Hey you guys are coming to China to pick up the boat, I hope that you are going to come a little early, I would love to see if I can make it there to say a quick hello, been watching your videos for some time now and love following what you are doing and how you got into this. I am planning to follow what you are doing myself but need a save up a bit before I can set myself free to travel

Don't worry about us in Minnesota. It's 19 degrees Fahrenheit today, so it's pleasant!

15:00 They are freequently ment to be driven in with a solder iron (Heat). This way, the plastic around melts and fixes it in place.

I think you’re kidding but I believe the singular is pronounced aahmah and plural is aahmaz. I think the term originates from the multihull designs found in the South Pacific. Always fun watching.

RVs are the same way, new or old you’re always going to have things you have to fix and adjust and want to improve.

This video demonstrates how there are always compromises in some small part or thing in place of something superior even on a boat seemingly where no expense was spared. There is even room for gadgets like an electronic battery operated device to assist in adding a spot of fuel.

Adding the diesel went perfectly! Except that was the water intake. 8^D

I would deff have a tap and die set on my boat and a variety of stainless nuts and bolts. Hopefully a manufacturer does their part to use only a few threads and sizes. Years ago was nice on my kawasaki dirt bike used 3 sizes for suspension and wheels

@20:04 The outrigger is an ama. Two outriggers are amas (plural). It's pronounced like the beginning of Amadeus Mozart. I was on a Hawaiian outrigger canoe racing team at one time and this is correct pronunciation and usage. I enjoy your content. Keep up the good work.

Next time use a soldering iron to melt that threaded insert into the plastic base.

Just ordered the fuel pump. On our Lagoon with the solar arch putting fuel in has been a pain. Espcially when underway. We have a jiggle syphon, but it is painfully slow.

While cruising, we heard a number of stories about Neels. The gist seemed to focus on inconsistent build quality. The live aboard quality is unquestionable though

Terrific video. Neels are high on my wish list too. There's a real opportunity here for someone with a wood shop. Make custom table tops for the various >$500k boats, ship them around the world. When I walked on the Seawind 1600 my first thought: "I want this boat" but most current performance multi-hulls are basically Ikea inside. (Maybe not the HH's...) My second thought was, get a sheet of that light weight structural foam, some really great veneer and make my own table top -- that has some character. It only takes a couple of nice details to take your eye off the Ikea.
