Great job done! I love the analogy of a heater being a 'she'. Made me laugh out loud 😂😅😂

Hope Carly and baby "Dom" are doing great and Hanks nose isn't too out of joint. ❤ Where you gonna put the baby when you go sailing? Have to build a small Cadoha to put him in 😉

Great to hear all is well.👍 How good is it to fix stuff! 💪.

you've had an old guy in tears !! love to all three of you 😘😘

Hey dom. great to see you back fixing up the boat. Love to Carly the lil man & Hank.

well done Dom!

All the very best with your family

Wishing you are all well!

My guess is that that is what we've all secretly been waiting for 🙂.. congratulations and thank ypu for making the world a little better!

Good to see work resuming. It's well worth making the repairs, doing the maintenance, and certainly the upgrades too. I can't remember if you have a washing machine and dryer on board, probably requires some battery/solar/charging, etc. upgrades, but so important for the things that need to be washed and dried in any conditions. Hope Carly and son are doing well. I'm sure Hank will soon be over all the upheaval and be ready for the baby's testing and tugging.

i owned and refitted a vagabond 42 during hurricane katrina in new orleans…she was one of 2 boats that didn’t get blown onto land and was still floating …can’t imagine how many other yachts banged into her after the water rose and they all broke loose from the docks…i found her on the other side of the marina with not one part of her hull that wasn’t scraped, but she was on her own bottom…and i’ll bet that this one will be floating again… this must have been a very terrifying experience, by feeling so helpless during the height of it…good job keeping it together mate! cheers!

Best wishes for all of you. How has hank taken stress?

I clean my woodburner window with a damp newspaper dip it in the ashes an clean the window.. works perfectly for me.

That looked exhausting, really hot work.

Hiya Dom ...you've just inspired me to sevice mine! Keep safe ..pray your family is getting stronger with every breathing moment...! Mark

Great to see you back, best wishes to mum and baby

Really enjoyed watching!

Good job Dom. Try running it on kero or paraffin every now and then to keep it clean. Works a treat.

It's that little hole air port next to glow plug that clogs up easily 😊

Best wishes to Carly and your little man, hope both are doing well? Also, look after yourself Dom as you’ll be dealing with a lot of anxiety when your loved ones are recovering from such a traumatic experience. Don’t forget about your health. 👍🏻🙏⛵️

Internal fan broke on mine and by the time I’d fixed it ( time /parts ) decided to buy a spare as (a) cheap (b)contains a full list of all possible spares and (c) if the heater fails it’s a 30 minute job to swap in the new one before my good lady has time to check the bus timetable home 😂 PS Feel for you and Carrie as you must feel conflicted through pressure to put out content on KZfaq (as its your bread and butter) but you have so much more important things to think of ... I would keep anything short and your supporters will continue to watch / subscribe etc through challenging times

What was that inspirational message on the wall of the shed - if your dreams don't scare you.. or something like that.

Good man, I put same one in 4 yrs ago for £89 after my £1200 mikuni burned out after 10 yrs mmmmmm🤔🤔🤔🤔. Great deal. Good luck with the familam stuff, it’ll work out, my goddaughter had same, now she’s in uni playing rugby👍👍👍👍

We all like nice simple repairs. Best wishes to the family and hope the little one gets fixed just as easily.

Ho Dom, Thanks for the update, best wishes for everyone. Just one thing you could have do e to the heater, there is a mesh screen around the glow plug that will be probably plugged with carbon, this also stops the heater from igniting. Easy to replace with the glow plug removed...there are plenty of videos you can watch to get the best method of removing. Keep up the good work.

Good to see you back. Warm regards and good luck with the bub.

One job at a time, my philosophy entirely. Doesn't matter what you are doing, as long as you are doing something. Only problem for some reason that list on the fridge door never seems to get any shorter 🙂

Wishing the 3 of you all the best.

Best wishes to You all from Sweden! //PO

Best wishes to the little man and you both, great video. Keep looking after yourselves.

Wishing you, Carly, and your baby a good future, Good work on the Diesel heater.. Heres one for the dog. Ok a break from the football . . So I'm at Pets at Home buying a bag of dog food for my dog. While in the check-out line, a woman behind me asked if I had a dog. Why else would I be buying dog food, RIGHT??? So on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Dog Food Diet again, and that I probably shouldn't because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in intensive care with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms. I told her that it was essentially a Perfect Diet and all you do is load your pockets with handfuls of dry food and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.) Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stepped off a curb to sniff a spaniel's backside and a lorry hit me. I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard. Now that you've read this I have to confess, I copied it. Now make someone else laugh 😉 😂😂😂

Great to see you hope her indoors is doing alright as well as the wee man. Just need to remember every year service the diesel heater. A lot of people would just chuck it and get a new one. See you soon.

Looking forward to watching you again

Best wishes to all four of you. Love to get an update on Carly & Hank

Awesome channel showing the best of British South Coast cruising, definitely worth a thumbs up and subscribe, best wishes to all. Would love to see you in the Bailiwick of Guernsey at some point fingers crossed.

Good to see you back. From one seriously premature baby (me) to another. Hang in there mate! You have the best parents a chap could wish for.

Welldone Dom. That saved a few bob by doing a simple overall yourself. Gladthat Carlyand little Dom are doing better.

Hi great to see you back and moving on

Four years is pretty good! Nice job on the servicing, may "she" keep you all warm and comfortable for at least another 4.

Best wishes to you, Mum and baby. I can't imagine the kind of stress you have lived/are living. Be kind to Dom!

Never seen a chinese heater misgendered before.

Which is true for many mechanical devices. The electronics can be nightmare at times.

Good job Dom - One thought. Heaters from the main brands do like to be run hard from time to time for a while to help them stay clean - the same idea as a diesel engine running hard v idling. Might be worth trying it in future to extend service interval

Ah yes, I remember the video of the install. Four years between services sound reasonable for a ‘cheap’ Chinese heater.

You do a great job prayers and good vibes for mom and baby

good to have you back Dom, you might not be a licensed technician, but you really do have an innate understanding of machines and mechanical systems

Fantastic, thanks for sharing.

Good to see you again Dom. Hope mom and baby are doing better and hopefully we'll get another update soon.
