by all svt patches we've built in a a

cruising sailboat and we're trying to

record that build week by week most

weeks nearly every week we get the video

out showing you that the build for this

boat and I'm building this boat mainly

on my own earth bit of assistance from

the kids from time to time but mania

mode part time doing it my evenings and

weekends and as I say that the purpose

of these videos is really to record that

build build them and show how we'll go

about it

[Music]

[Music]

we're sort of a builder and inverse real

roads not an anniversary it's two and a

half years since I started building this

week a few days ago it's two and a half

years from starting the building so

maybe it's a good opportunity to have a

quick look around the boat before we get

into what's been going on this week some

of you seen this before but there's been

a number of new subscribers recently and

actually haven't looked back over the

old ones and quick look around the boat

see what we've done in two-and-a-half

years what's been achieved maybe useful

let's do that Kerry have a little scared

of the hull she's basically 32 foot long

hold they bent for design sailing dory

you may notice there's no peel as yet

Akhil still calm cable comes on towards

the end of the build in fact the kill

will be fitted when we move up to the

boat after prize a long but I'm going to

go up on the for neck okay so if for

deck looks like this we've got a whole

front of but mass thinner into the

partners it's oversized but um that's

the mass partners from she's gonna have

two masts that's the forward last

obviously bow fitting in place this bail

pump it is only sat there at one but it

will fit I was looking around at the

other Dahlia I'm confident with very

little modification or fit comes with

the nav lights this off offer Hallberg

recipe 32 that'd be nice on their happy

with that

we've got a couple of big bronze pleats

at the church we've fitted at some stage

and I'm setting this little doghouse

with that with a deck hatch in it then

hook it up on the main deck you can see

this the experience with which a

structural in position tyrella position

another deck hatch perhaps turtle you

can see it back from her for the main

compelling way entrance hatch

so that's all done basically speaking

the woodwork the vast majority of the

woodwork on this boat is is done in that

two and a half years I've got I'm

working on the heads right now in terms

of woodwork I've still got a shelf that

I want to put in the engine room and the

letter H will also have some some

shelving storage fitted but that's about

it for the main woodwork of this

construction sir in that time would work

has been done obviously this summer

coming it would bring a lot of finishing

repainting or repeating hardware that

sort of hardware that can fit and still

get the boat out of the shade

bigger Harbor will be fitted once we've

hauled her out but I swear we are for

day and what you can see are the main

deck let's go and have a look at the

Arctic just before we go off on the off

deck is the aft end you spit dark under

here is canoe right above my head but

you see the stone post line officers

stood and I'm not obviously but it will

be a stern hung rudder going on here

with a large tiller would be the

steering so that still to go that would

be another thing that's fitted once

we've hauled her out the shade off

actually will be fitted in the boat yeah

but we made lots of holder out of the

shed got these black locust rub rails or

the face peaceful rock rails in position

running around the curve of the boat

looking nice I think we'll go up on the

aft it now

they are take cockpit nice protected

filters are effect with these big

comings

coming serve various purposes the diesel

filler will be in there some storage

boxes in these areas and there is a

quarter berth below there they make the

cockpit February safe

nice big companion white with sliding

hatch the Lazar end he says yet mainly

untouched but we've got the basics of

the lazarette hatch in place in his

hinge unum capture big old tiller will

come up to here for steering some

instruments and compasses to go in but

as a safe would work wise were pretty

much done one thing that that look needs

still doing is a cap on these bulwarks

so be a hardwood cap on the bulwarks

fore-and-aft that's one of the last

pieces of work as I said storage in the

lazarette and the engine will come in

and well we go inside it's a bit of a

mess in here what going on I've just

started working in the in the hitch this

is the heads area bare at the moment

I've sanded it up

[Music]

cut a hole here for the Fed it's going

to have a composting toilet but as a

bench with a small electric fan in it

the bed's going out there so cut the

hole in there

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Applause]

if it sounded officer size up we're

thinking about some work surfaces in

here and getting it painted up but in

the main boat the clutter laying on the

head itself there after the forepeak

here all this way Jerry we've got two

functioning LED lights with wiring in

position and tidy this week I did a

couple of evenings this week some tidy

wiring the terminal blocks

up in these these if you lean through

music covers either side but up in the

top end of those covers a couple of

terminal blocks with the wiring

[Applause]

so that's enum working which means a

4-peat it's planed it out and basically

basically done you don't finishing real

finishing off in the saloon but pretty

much we're now we're completely painted

out the varnish on the bare wood still

to come but these hatch walls are

painted last week and they'll dry enough

that but in position it's nice for the

class or as I say but coming off this

week one major thing they did was to

work on this area under the nav table

[Applause]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

the other thing is that Allah under the

nerve table all glossed out looking good

so in here again the saloon is really

for finishing varnish that table things

of the sand and the varnish fiddles

still got fiddled to go down there but

fiddles ready for but she's just about

done cushions to come to this where

we're after two and a half years behind

you there carry as the galley area this

rather cluttered at the moment bottom

also essentially there still some

shelves storage to come sinks need

fitting the water pumps need plumbing

but and a good sand up and paint out in

here the raw wood work is done I'm

pleased with that

moving into the heads this week behind

you carry two things to see it's a

little dark in there but there's at the

corner of up there which again is to all

intensive purposes down these knees

painting good sand and paint and once

the the galley of the heads are finished

we'll be moving in here into the engine

room first then back might help the

light a bit you see the engine in

position engine bed engine imposition of

a Penta with so drive the the 2010

Rossella drove in position past still

nice completely hooking up wiring fuel

fuel tanks annoying but the edge is

basically there but a reinforcement to

that to come as well but interim still -

still to be worked on once heads are

down which will should be in a week or

two short done we'll be into that engine

so that's what to another of years is a

treat so it will poke around

remember this the old trusty old Volvo

Penta MD one which as I told you what a

old back then is progressing very slowly

but we've done a bit or I've done a bit

more to the point as you can tell it's

mounted up on the stand now I've got

these brackets welded on both sides

there aft engine mounts which which are

yeah still not fixed up I've got a bit

of a bit of angle iron here that'll be

going across the effort the aft engine

mounts but I'll pop the gearbox on for

now already I just I'm really to line up

the engine melts so I'm going get that

mounted properly and just come around

this week Harry I say well did this

bracket on for the forward in Gmail on

this bolt here which is the moments just

sat in there that was that was rather

seized up and I had to to apply well but

the little grinder on it and then a cold

chisel hammer and culture heater get it

out and I should be replacing it with a

bit of this for this stud I should cut a

link for that to go through there

[Applause]

[Applause]

[Applause]

let's just enjoy about

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

you

isn't that lovely

as progressing and in house of zero

have a look at it maybe also spend a bit

of time to enough an initial clean-up on

this barrel so I took put the airline in

there and blew all of the water jacket

ways out being about there's a lot of

rust scale in there so clean that out

being up the barrel a bit and that's

just about ready to go on I think that

the piston rings probably need a clean

put and yeah we've written with that in

our spare time a few weeks ago I

mentioned some charity or charity effort

that my brother's doing set up a YouTube

channel climbing Kilimanjaro for net

and some of you ever look some of you

placed some money to his charity there

he's raising money for cancer care

basically speaking and Heyman is my

robber our training they want to walk up

Kilimanjaro in May the training for that

the video in videoing that the training

process and this week they went up the

walk up snow dome which is that hi

speaking wails videos out gonna look and

and watch them getting snowed on and

Snowden perhaps one last thing to say is

that all monies that they raise are

going to them the cancer charity

none of it the actual costs for their

travel and all of that they fund in

themselves so any any pledges go into

the charity the cancer charity for yeah
