1. what david said no big issues

2. Looks Good! I would say you have at least a year on your bottom paint. It looks to be in the same condition as Southern Cross when we had her hauled out. We have a diver that cleans the bottom 1 a month and gives us a report each time. He said we are good for another year. That will be 2 and like I said, yours looks to be in almost identical shape.

3. At long last. I bet you guys are excited. I hope it all goes well.

4. Your surveyor is very thorough…I thought my surveyor was picky, but your guy has him beat.  Attached is a write-up by the guy who discovered the cause of gelcoat blisters.

5. so far all seems superficial nothing to bad , looking forward to the rest of the inspection thanks for sharing

6. So cool guys you are on your way !!

7. Enjoying the boat survey. Good stuff for boat Geeks.

8. Exciting stuff. It's a used boat and like buying a house there is wear and tear and decisions of what you guys are willing to accept or reject. Good luck and hoping for better news on rest of survey.

9. Great episode!! Thanks!

10. Looks like you found a good surveyor willing to go through his explanations. Good luck on the rest of the survey.

11. Thanks for your videos! We're 2 years behind you guys and love seeing in advance at least some of the things if not all that we'll be facing. Thanks again!!!

12. Wouldn't gravity tend to wear the bottom of the bearing out first? Looks good otherwise. It will be a pain to have to strip it off to the gelcoat but at least then you know its done right. I've done it on two boats I've owned. Are you planning on doing the bottom and seacocks yourself or have it done?

13. So the hull looks ok… But what about the decks, the chain plates, the engine and everything else???

14. Rather than soda blasting maybe you should look into "wet sandblasting" ,, you can remove all the bottom epoxy on a boat this size in about 2 hours blasting with crushed glass. Many people in the business are mobile and can come to you.

15. What fun! You guys already know the outcome, but we have to wait… !!! Oh well gives us something to look forward to. Don't be afraid of DIY work. That's the nature of boat ownership.

16. Finally! how long was the wait? What about the deck, cabin, mast, and systems part of the survey?

17. good job u guys ! 🙂

18. I'm not sure why, but I'm excited for you two. No mummies on this boat?

19. I think I mentioned early on that full keels were encapsulated, and did not suffer from a lot of these anomalies.

20. Hi Guys,
    Your project boat is getting interesting…
    I don't want to rain on your parade, here are some comments based on 'do it right, do it once'…
    I read the article from Smith and Company as seen in the Bill Bruce comment.
    Even if the hull gelcoat is only removed in a spotty manner, this will be an expensive endeavour. Add new thru-hulls and cocks and maybe plumbing,etc Several thousand dollars I would estimate…

    You will have to redo the anti-fouling bottom paint as well, $1500-2000 for 'coppercoat'. It lasts for 10+ years as opposed to 3-5years for regular bottom paint.

    Throw in the new shaft, bearings and glands plus a new feathering prop and there's another $2500. All these costs exclude labour, and assumes DIY!!!

    I can't wait to see the end result. Sounds to me the surveyor is giving you grounds to walk away already…

21. Great video! I loved the music to start it off. Great topic for people to see the process. A good survey will save you money and I like to think that this is your last opportunity to get someone to fix your boat for free! Cheers and good luck. -Robb

22. Is it the sellers, or buyers responsibility to bring the boat unto the hard for the survey?

23. and that's just the first 15min…….. are you worried yet?

24. looks like a nice big hole in your pocket lol

25. Very good survey so far, he has pointed out quite a few items you need to address. Nice that he let you film the process. 🙂

26. Another amazing video

27. Great video, a very thoughror survey thus far. The guy knows his stuff, I don't know that a sandblasting is necessary to fix the hull however. Just a bit more attention and grinding on her next haulout. She has a nice shape to her hull. Looking forward to next episode.

28. this is so exciting!

29. If you decide to go with a composting head, some through hulls can actually be eliminated, saving the expense of buying new ones. The less holes in the boat, the better!

30. Keep good paint on the bottom (Petit Trinidad SR) and cosmetic blisters will not grow, mine didn't in 10 years at all. But you got to put paint every two years or so! Typical of gel coats of this vintage

31. Make sure you have the keel bolts checked and tighten to spec, I did mine 4 years ago and one broke so I had them all replaced with stainless 316 (more Molly in the steel) rather than the 304 that existed at the time of these boats constrction (80's). Stainless 316 is far more corrosion resistant. You definitely do not want to experience loosing your keel. Depends where it happens can be deadly

32. this guy has said nothing good/positive about this boat

33. using a flashlight while wearing sunglasses.. lol

34. Informative! Thank you! engine alignment easy fix, common sense .. which direction is the wear? tweak the motor mounts , and get a spare bearing, you will need eventually.

35. and don't forget, that's the bottom…..thru hulls make perfect, top leaks will destroy anything worth saving! chain plate leaks to bulkheads can be fixed…if the deck is soft to many places… donate for target practice reef.

36. There was such great info in that vid. I learned so much. Thanks for filming it.

37. this guy is good..needs a bottom job..but it will float…

38. …..Did you know you were going to have all these problems? Did you inspect for these things? How long has it taken you to fix everything? I wouldn't have the guts to go through all this…God bless you two.

39. Surveyor flashing a light outside in daylight wearing sunglasses…..

40. I have used Ken Henry for every purchase/ins survey for the last 30 years. He is the best!

41. Very informative I'm going to watch all your videos thank you very much for your knowledge

42. Thanks for the learning experience!
