The hull deck joint is 2 overlapping 2-3 inch wide flanges of fiberglass, each about 1/4 inch thick. The lifeline stanchions through bolt though both flanges, with the nuts and washer deep inside the hollow bulwarks. The teak cap rails also bolt to this flange. Water typically leaks in where the sections of cap rail meet (splice).and follow fastenings. I have no experience in freezing climates. But I "think" water which leaks in past failed sealants then freezes and expands, and this causes real damage that would never be seen in temperate climates. After a thaw more rain can and will then pour in. Repeat every year and my guess is this kind of damage occur. Of course, since the silly liner closes off all access to the hollow bulwarks it collects leaking water, and falls off. 40+ years of N. California rain and sun 35F to 95F hardly phased my 30 - although a previous owner did (wisely) remove all the vinyl liner. The aluminum framed ports in all old fishers will leak, and need to be carefully removed and rebedded with modern sealant. Corrosion may be an issue, but is obvious. The bronze ports also need to be carefully removed and sealed. in boats from any climate, due to age, sun .

With regard to polyurethane two pack paint with which you were painting you engine bearers,hand painting is relatively safe,but if you spray paint polyurethane the activator used is carsenogeric,so breathing apperatus must be used,and not in confined areas,just a heads up!

the engine now seems breathless as you have removed the air inlet. ugghe ugghe they used to say in Amsterdam in the sixties.

Helge 2 years later I am watching this again...as a NorthEaster has come up that needs love...so figured I better see what happens when they've really gone wrong.

When I worked with chop strand and woven fibre glass in aviation industry always used epoxy resin,often used Kevlar woven mat for extra strength,was an pain to cut and shape,

14:35 Please be careful, last time it hurt!

Very enjoyable video. I’m doing the same refit on my 30-year-old sailboat here in Tampa, Florida. Nice work!

Very fine video. Really like when you show the countryside. The progress is coming along very nicely. fortsett a holde, ha en fin uke min venn

Winter is a disaster for me. If it were like this all year round, I would look for a stable branch.

Es ist eine wunderbare Landschaft, wenn nur das Klima besser wäre... Im Winter zu kalt. Im Sommer zu feucht. Ich bevorzuge das warme und trockene Klima. Tendenziell nach Asien, nur nicht so feucht.

Ist es möglich, dass Ihre Tochter ein "Morgenmuffel" ist? Ich habe das Gefühl, dass sie nur schwer in Schwung kommt. Ich weiß das. Ich bin der gleiche Typ.

3:45 Der Turbo muss schon seit geraumer Zeit defekt gewesen sein; Die Ablagerungen entstehen nicht schon nach wenigen Betriebsstunden. 8:05 Wo ist der Ladeluftkühler? Es wäre genügend Kühlmedium vorhanden. Die Kühlbox könnte ein paar Pferde mehr mobilisieren und auch den Kraftstoffverbrauch senken.

0:36 The sealing cord is probably a PTFE combination. Teflon is self-lubricating and temperature-resistant.

7:10 This tool is called in English: Slide Hammer and in German colloquially Wichser (masturbator) because of the similar movement.

stick saw is Jigsaw in England

Thanks for showing all the details! Is it possible to travel with a DF800 in canals with the sidehulls tugged in?

Looks like such a good design all round, from the pilot house and deck to the protected prop and rudder due to the full keel. New build boats often lack one or more of these features and it makes hunting for the right boat a real effort.

Jig saw or saber Saw !

Oh, you got a haircut!! Another great episode, I truly think it doesn’t have to be perfect, as long as it’s strong and looks good. I have many repairs on my boat that are definitely not perfect but it would take a long time to find them! Nice seeing your historian wife, I love history too, perhaps some of those graves were my ancestors!

"Puttied" is fine and it's a jigsaw. I wonder if the hull is warped temporarily because of the removal of internal structures and being supported only at points?

Love the "new" T-shirt!

Hi. Loving your videos and you are doing a good job. Really liking your delivery style and humorous way. I am looking to visit Norway next year and want to go to a traditional boat festival if you can recommend a good place? I am a boat builder in western isles Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. All the best and keep up the great work. Regards Dave

Helge if you have levelled the boat externally to the waterline with a laser then ‘the interior is what the interior is’. I strongly suspect if cheap lasers had been around back then when when the boat was built they might have used them.😉 Good to see Sara doing the thinking while you were doing the grafting.The stabsaw is referred to as a jigsaw in the U.K. Keep up the good work and I am sure Sara has plenty to think about.🤣⛵️

just found your channel and am watching from the start . my goal was always to buy a fisher 30 but the 50 years of wood rot is slowly eating my dream away , one question ? your camera daughter speaks very good english , when i was at university in glasgow 1990 we had a lot of scandi student mates , was the camera daughter educated in the UK ? if so what region ? i am trying to work out her english accent , is it south coast england ?

This was a fun video.

Hi Helge! That mustard coloured Ryobi battery saw is called a Jigsaw (not to be confused with the picture puzzle of little bits which lock together to form a picture) Kind regards, Chris

It’s called a jigsaw and they are just called jigsaw blades mate

Thanks for the extra trips around Norway its beautiful and so is your family.. :o)

I had the same Vespa! Will that go on the boat?

Recirculating is better. We call it reuse here.

Very enjoyable videos, keep up the good work. greets from Scotland.

Keep camera from jerking around! Makes me giddy....

That tool is a " Jigsaw " in English. Tell me, do you have an overall plan or do you go go day by day?

I Feel your stress or it's my imagined stress I would feel doing this project. I do enjoy watching you overcome the problems you face and your light hearted jokes with your daughter.

Oh, loved the drive and walk in the country, Norway and British Columbia have lots in common. The boat is coming along nicely, little steps. I saw a perfect sign for you while I was out for a walk today. It read "Norwegian Parking Only, all others will be towed" So if you are ever in my part of the world I can point you to a parking spot

Boat man Dan ...haven't seen such skill in a long long time.

10 Kroner = 1 US Dollar? Saber Saw or Jig Saw. You should wear laser protective lens for the wavelength of lazer you are using... even reflected lazer light can injure your eyes ! Using the lazer is brilliant... as is making the templates using the glue gun. What is the template material ?

Another enjoyable video. Really like it when you allow us to come along on your little car and boat trip 😀

Haha, I love your opening scene in the shirt that won't retire, but which disappears when your wife appears. ; ). "Puttied" is good, "fillet" is better, although fillet is the same word as the verb to remove the bones from a fish or the noun for the boned side of a fish. Note that the final "t" is pronounced for the material that rounds off an interior angle; the final "t" is silent (as in French) for the fish bits. English is weird but you manage beautifully no matter what Sara says. Sticksaw = jigsaw, also weird because jig is a lively dance (a dancing saw?) or a device that holds materials in place for assembly. Makes about as much sense as "Ash Island" without a volcano. Boat level --> they were still "experimenting" with drugs in the '70s; we're better at doing drugs now.

I have been following you almost from the beginning, I love the side trips.

Looking like she is coming along very nicely Jon. Slow and steady!

Thanks!

Hi again Jon that was a quick reply, my Colvic has been sitting on the hard for 10 years so I have plenty of work to do before she goes back in the water but I'm not in a rush, I also see you have lots of motorbikes i like the black Yamaha is it a Bolt ? I also have 4 bikes all old ones 2 Yamaha's and 2 Honda's an xjr 1200 from 1995 and a Yamaha 80 2 stroke from 1968 2 Honda's a CB 175 twin and an SS 125 twin both from 1971. I love your little one man car 😊 Regards Paddy

Hi Helge and Mrs. Helge! As usual, my comments are in no particular order. 🙂The addition of music was soothing. I momentarily stopped the video to put my slippers on and make a Manhattan cocktail (with Canadian Rye whiskey) to soak in the whole experience. Your walk along the curving road was beautiful. You'll love a visit here as it will feel a lot like home. We would call "puttying" filleting" to make the radiused curves with thickened epoxy. 3000 Krone = $381 CAD bucks. I really enjoyed the outtakes of your time on the water and exploring with your wife. Another great video Helge. Thank you for sharing. All the best my friend.

PS. I would cut the opening and make the door before gluing it down. A lot easier over plan A.

Wrong blades.... I hate when that happens... I really, really hate that. Nice wife, I hope she treats you good. You seem a little special to me We (USA) call them "Jig" saw or "Sabre" saw. Boatman John knows his shit, looks like he'll do ya good.. I love your taking us on your trips. Norway is beautiful . As long as you are consistent, don't worry about messing up LOL.

Great video all the best from the uk

Content is perfect...dont change it...oh and the haircut...like the woodwork, not perfect but we can live with it 🤣🤣🤣

No problem this man can't grind off ❤ hero

Hang on a bloody minute !!! I thought you were tall !!! Then I saw your beautiful wife...you're a little person from the North !!! ...my dreams are shattered 🤣🤣🤣
