Just About Sailing June 2019 – A moving experience with my boat
As discussed last time; Serenity is moving to be near to me so that I can (hopefully) get back into the swing of getting her voyage ready. Lots of 'flying' in this one - shiny! Link to HJ Logistics website as mentioned in the video is https://www.hjlogist...
Just About Sailing May 2019 – Going backwards in order to move forwards
Just occasionally you need to take a step backwards and slow things down in order to get where you want faster. No, I know that doesn't make any sense - I guess you'll just have to watch the video. Check out Sail Life here https://www.youtube.com/user/mad...
Just About Sailing March 2019 – Installing a Chinese Diesel Heater, Pt 2 Fitting it and switching on
This video covers the actual fitting of all the bits and the initial start-up. There is nothing too complicated here - but do comment if you have ideas that might be useful for other people. I haven't done a full test yet - in fact I haven't read the inst...
Just About Sailing January 3 2019 – Galley refit continued, Origo stove, sink and fridge
This is the first fit of all the new galley bits into the boat - Origo Stove, Bearmach 32 Litre Fridge and Romesco Sink. Everything is still temporary as this was a 'proof of concept' exercise. Also, I need to figure out where the ducting for the air blown...
Just About Sailing January 2 2019 – Starting the galley refit and Nautical word fun
I wanted to get another video out in January as soon as possible. Lots of boxes full of fun DIY projects have arrived. First job is to rip out the old galley. And because my daughter enjoyed the 'fun with flags' episode so much, I thought we could have som...
Just About Sailing January 2019 – So what happened in the second half of 2018 then?
This video is a lot of talking to the camera to cover what went wrong in the second half of 2018. Boat projects really did grind to a near halt. I have included this video just for completeness to chronicle some of the things that happen when real life get...
Just About Sailing December 2018 – Christmas Special Musical Extravaganza
So here we go again. Back by popular request... well back by request... well back. So what can I say. At least you know that once you have watched this - there won't be another one for a whole year. Merry Christmas
Just About Sailing November 2018 – Slow Progresss and Filling in more holes in the Hull
Just managed to almost get this video into November. Things are trickling along quite slowly at the moment. But every step in the right direction is a step in the right direction. Here are a couple of links I mention in the video: Sailing Hunk of Junk htt...
Just About Sailing October 2 2018 – Hatch Removal, Refurbishment and Refitting
We will just take it as read that any comments to this video will start with, "...a blindfolded drunk giraffe on a rollercoaster could have done that better..." Anyway despite the mistakes, the boat is now waterproof when it rains for the first time ever....
Just About Sailing October 2018 – Southampton Boat Show, New Habitent, Fun with Flags
I thought I would get a new video up quickly as a bit of a break from the DIY ones. The Southampton Boat Show is always worth a visit and the weather was wonderful. I bought Serenity a present; a lovely new Habitent. I don't really need it right now, bu...
Just About Sailing September 2018 – Making and Installing a new Holding Tank, Pt 1
This is the first of a two part project. I decided to make a holding tank from glass fibre covered plywood. Partly because of cost, but also to make sure I can get the exact shape and fit that I want. Seemed like a good idea at the time.
Just About Sailing August 2018 – Checking for leaks in the rain, stern anchor locker, new water tank
Well it rained off and on for ages whilst I was fitting the windows. Then nothing for weeks. But today it is pouring, so I am checking for leaks before I finalise the gluing of the headlining. I have also found a spot for a stern anchor chain locker. And ...
Just About Sailing July 2018 – Putting the old windows back in, every silver cloud has a lining
I only really took the old windows (portlights) out because I needed to paint the outside - and fill in the old holes. However, as we all know, there is no such thing as doing one job on a boat. Every job is always accompanied by at least 5 more. Plus I ...
Just About Sailing June 2018 – Fitting new windows, Pt 2 sanding, painting, installation
Although the weather looks perfect in this video - it was a complete pain trying to get a few days in a row when I could do the epoxy work and then the painting. Still, I got there in the end. Paining is not my strong point - I already new that. Putting ...
Just About Sailing May 2 2018 – Fitting the Windows, Pt 1 Getting round windows to fit a square hole
Yep, a second one in May. Having received a lovely big box from Seaglaze just after I finished the rudder, and with good weather forecast for the long Bank Holiday weekend, I couldn't resist getting started. Only one problem - the windows are rounded and ...
Just About Sailing May 2018 – Rudder repair review, Projects to get Serenity back in the water
A bit wordy this one; sorry about that. But I wanted to get in a 'review and plans' video before I start the windows (Portlights) - I am really excited about that particular project. Hopefully there will be a windows video towards the end of May. Have a...
Just About Sailing Apr 18 – Fixing the Rudder, Pt 4 Sticking the two halves together, all finished!
Yep. It is actually finished. Normal caveat; this is not an instructional video, just a record of what I actually did. Please comment below if you have any questions or observations. I will have a short review in the next video (which I will do in the ne...
Just About Sailing December 2 2017 – Christmas Special, Musical Extravaganza
Can you remember as a child looking forward to those Christmas Specials on TV? Only to find that they were simply clips of things you'd already seen plus a supposedly 'funny' song from people who really couldn't sing and should have known better. Well, I'm...
Just About Sailing December 1 2017 – fitting a ‘new’ sprayhood not made for my boat, Pt 2
So here we go. Part 2 of this mini-series. The next step is to get the stainless steel bows made up, and try and get the frame and acrylic canvas to fit each other. A couple of links. The value for money tool for punching holes in the canvas was from: ht...
Just About Sailing November 2 2017 – fitting a ‘new’ sprayhood, not made for my boat, Pt 1
OK, so not on my list of things to do soon at all. But a cheap, brand new sprayhood appeared on ebay. Forget that it wasn't made for my boat, was not the right colour, and may not fit - a bargain is a bargain. This is part one...there isn't a part two y...
Just About Sailing November 1 2017 – Basic woodwork, reflections on plans & progress
Things are still moving forward, although the year has shown less progress than I would have liked since the haul out. Still, as long as the progress is in the right direction, that's OK by me - and my enthusiasm for the longer term remains unabated. And ...
Just About Sailing October 1 2017 – Rudder Problems and Window (Portlight) Solutions
Still slow progress, but gradually speeding up a bit. Definitely one step forward and one step backwards here. There is a good solution for the saloon portlights as long as I can find the bits, but the rudder needs some significant work. By the way, her...
Just About Sailing September 2 2017 – Holding tank plans and off with the rudder, almost
Fingers crossed. I saw a great holding tank from Tek Tanks that might just fit into some 'spare' space in the heads compartment. I made up a cardboard mock-up to test the fit. Also, I wanted t check out the rudder to see what might need refurbishing. One ...
Just About Sailing September 1 2017 – Massive fire at the boatyard, water tank and electrics
I am still slightly in shock at the moment to be honest. There was a very big fire at the boatyard which destroyed 8 boats plus a couple of sheds and a workshop. Very sad state of affairs indeed. Plus I have a measure up and a think about how to install...
