If you guys get this message, did you have some sort of indistrial/fiberglass shop prior to starting this endeavor? I can't help but marvel at the tent. Did you acquire that just for this project, too? Still binge watching. 7/16/24

So the tent was purchased at auction as a paint booth for the tanks that Whit’s dad paints. Covering the boat was a really nice bonus.

​@@aboardladyhawkHello from Texas. I noticed it's been several months since you posted your last video. Do you plan on doing any more videos relating to your boat? I just found your channel. I'll probably be binge watching today. Thanks.

Have at it, mom's tired of sanding I've just binge watched all previous videos (it's a 4 day holiday weekend here in Scotland) its great to see the kids help out but that made me laugh too much. Strangely this video appears in the playlist after your dad painted the boat and what a fantastic job he made of the old lady! No lipstick on a pig here, this is a well dressed lady with all the trimmings to go with her good looks.

Anyone can buy and own a lower maintenance plastic fantastic white boat . Try not to fall into “the low maintenance trap “ keep the value of the boat financially and aesthetically by not painting over all of the teak . You will regret it.

Crazy is right!! What a transformation! I just discovered you guys a few days ago and have been binging. Al 34 CHB is in my future and watching you change this boat is just what I needed to see! Great job! Question: What is the brand of paint that you used for the exterior?

@aboardladyhawk
@aboardladyhawk 6 ай бұрын
It was a bear of a job. The trick to squeezing it out of there was trimming back the forward bulkhead. Flush with the bottom of the floor that gave me an additional 2 inches or so for making the corner when trying to lift it out. Pulled it toward the engine and sucked it in as I squeezed it up toward the engine compartment hatch. Not a super fun task ha
