Hydrovane Windvane, Part 3: Installing a Fibreglass Mount for the Upper Bracket | PFS Ep. 17
Adding a Hydrovane to Paragon is turning out to be a massive project. First there was the unboxing, next the mount was made, and now it’s time to adhere that mount to Paragon. What could possibly go wrong hanging off the stern of the boat with a heavy chunk of fibreglass while at anchor? (Don’t ...

New Channel Trailer 2022 – Plus change of Channel Name
It was time for a new Channel Trailer. The old one is well over 4 years old and there are now over 130 videos uploaded. I also decided to change the name of the channel. The old name, "Just About Sailing" was based on a joke when I sent a video to friends and family the first time I raised...
Just About Sailing February 2020 – Coating the Washboards with Epoxy and Varnish
Lots of people have suggested that I should try a combination of clear epoxy and varnish on the washboards. Epoxy is very waterproof and hard-wearing, but not very resistant to UV, hence the need to coat it with varnish. Lots of help from my daughter who will be in charge of varnishing the interior....
Just About Sailing October 2019 – fixing a foot long crack in the hull of my boat
This video covers the structural repair of a rather large crack/split/gash in the hull of Serenity. It happened two years ago just before I took her out of the water...and it was 100% my fault. Still, who doesn't like the chance for a bit of extra fibreglass work?
Just About Sailing September 3 2019 – A very quick look at the Southampton Boat Show 2019
I prepared this time! I actually wrote out a specific list of things I wanted to find out at the boat show related to forthcoming projects. I questioned a few technical experts from different companies and received a lot of valuable information. And saw three very special boats. I can't believ...
Just About Sailing September 2 2019 – Enjoyable, Achievable & Connected Boat DIY, done slowly
A few odd jobs in this episode; Lucy finishing off the 'mock' Holding Tank, me finally gluing up the rest of the headlining, plus fixing a broken TV - but is there anything worth watching? The moral of this short video is that anyone can fix anything and also have a good time doing it.
Just About Sailing September 2019 – DIY Holding Tank Pt3 – Thru hull & Seacock install
This video went on a bit longer than anticipated, but so did the install process. First a bit of an update, then a detailed look at fitting the new Forespar Series 93 2" combined thru-hull and seacock for the holding tank waste outlet. This is how I did it - I am not suggesting it is how you s...![98. DIY Sailboat Companionway Stairs [Part 2] Learning the Lines](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/X4j1O1HMssI/mqdefault.webp)
98. DIY Sailboat Companionway Stairs [Part 2] Learning the Lines
We're back to working on Freebie, but we've got to be a little creative and choose our projects wisely because until the construction of the home she's docked behind is finished, we have limited access.

60. Filling Holes in Our Boat & Changing the Cutlass Bearing | Learning the Lines – DIY Sailing
In this vlog we replace our cutlass bearing in a very unconventional way. We really wish we could have done it the "right" way but previous galvanic corrosion of the strut really made us feel as though we shouldn't remove the old bearing jacket for fear of damaging what little strut w...

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 up lining is also not my strong point - I di...

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 the cut-outs in the boat are square...M...
