1. We plan to make a Q&A video soon. So now is the time to ask us anything you want to know! 🤓 Just leave your question under the pinned comment. 👇

2. That's what you get when you buy a crock and skinflint on not getting a survey ha ha

3. Hang in there. Best of luck 👍

4. I'm thinking of creating an award for the silliest boat restoration project on YouTube.
   I keep thinking of Tallyho, that has used about 4 square metres of original planking, and 5 tonnes of original lead.
   I suspect you have a bit more left on your hull, but do you have the sponsorship, and the infatuated wooden boat enthusiasts for support ?
   I have never heard of a boat repair facility what wasn't enthusiastic about a long, expensive restoration.
   Its like asking a dentist if you need work on your teeth. Its only you that have to suffer the pain.

5. We are left hanging! What of the hull!!! 😬😬😬I am so looking forward to the next video ….but with some dread. Fingers crossed from the blue mountains, australia. This channel is the best.

6. Without a group of helpers, you two are going to be at it for years to come. I’m afraid you’ll burn out at this task. I hope you enlist help. Good luck.

7. 💪👌✊✊

8. Just think, you could be sitting somewhere with your feet up relaxing with a bottle of red wine but think of the fun you'd be missing out on😀 I hope the report comes back ok for you. She'll be a fine vessel if you can get through this battle 🏴‍☠️🍷🍷

9. Hello from Siesta Key Florida

10. A sledge hammer would be a lot better than a pry bar

11. Wondered where you guys were… You need a bottom less pit of money… Stripping is the easy part…. Wait till the refit….. Good luck

12. Did you keep the wooden 'floors' as templates just in case you wanted to restore the old cabin sole height etc 😉

13. There are two possible outcomes of this story:
    A:) The ship gets scrapped in spring due to lack of motivation, or
    B:) The whole mid section interior gets ripped out, and the inside is sand blasted, then the ship is scrapped late summer, due to lack of motivation and funds.
    Bending and installing new frames and stringers alone for this big mofu will cost an arm and a leg, if not done in some southeastern european low-wage country.

14. Best wishes from the uk, love the videos it's too big of of a job frorm .

15. Hello, just came across your channel and find it very interesting.
    I was wondering if you could add to your about us section where you are repairing your ship at?
    It looks like quite the challenge. The good news is that you will be able customize everything to your desires.
    The nice thing about a metal hull is that you can cut and weld just the bad spots.
    Be brave, dam the rust and full speed ahead, cheers.

16. This is a very old ship. There is definitely another material used for the hull plates than for the frames. The frames are typical rusting away in layers. Once started, it's almost an unstoppable process. The frames – I think – are made of 'puddel-iron'. That explains the typical (delaminating) form of rust. The hull-plates are a different sort of iron…you almost could name it 'steel'. It's still difficult to weld, but an experienced (older) welder knows how to handle this kind of 'steel'. These plates are quite resistend to rust but have a problem with 'putroest' (pitting). The Eiffel-tower is also built of 'puddle-iron' and is still standing upright. I think the building of your ship started in 1902-1905.

17. I’m not sure I have the emotional capacity to come on this journey 😂

18. W0W!

19. Wow, it's amazing how many comments you are getting now! THAT is something to be proud of!
    The insulation, I think caused the rusting on the interior of the hull and on the "bones" of the ship. It trapped condensation.
    As several others have said don't be discouraged by a few damaged ribs in one local area or another. Those can be fortified or replaced. I've done a lot of welding myself. As long as 75% of the "ribs" are good, I think it's doable….moneywise. I guess it depends on how tough you guys are….your "metal", doesn't it? I think you are up to it! AND when Coney sails again, we'll ALL be proud. (I like the beam width on this old boat, Soooo roomy). Merry Christmas!💝

20. all the problem I have seen up to 12;28 is a couple frames that have rusted away, but they are easy replaced, if it is endemic across the whole ship it would be time to sit down and think. if you decide to scrap it, what would you get scrap value against how much it would cost to repair, and then compare that to the cost of replacement. If you repair you know you have a good ship against if you buy a new ship it could be exactly the same as "The Coney"

21. Your both amazing people. Thanks for sharing your lives an your journey with us… ✌🏼💗😊⛵

22. Good luck to you both I hope it's worth all that herculean effort you're expending.

23. Sailing melody did something similar with a steel hull
    They had a X-ray done to measure the thickness of the hull
    And new pcs if it was to thin

24. I hope youse guys didn't pay a lot for that boat, if so, you'll work pretty hard to make it worth it…to each his own, I'll sit and watch if it helps at all…

25. Some did look like brand new, hopefully she is fixable. Wish you the very best

26. I'm wishing you the wisdom to know what is in your hearts and the strength to act on your knowledge. God bless you Dears. I believe the Lord loves a dreamer.

27. Horrific!

28. Where the frames have disintegrated, some of those hull plates also look awful… expect lots of bad news on top of more bad news with any steel or wood boat restoration. 🙂

29. Does anyone know what the second song in this video is? The ballad with the girl singing. I have heard it before but can't id it.

30. The art of everything is knowing when to start and when to stop. Happy you're getting a third party evaluation from an expert, I think that's the very best thing you could do at this point. Also I would be careful about zeroing out the value of your own time. Time is basically all we humans have on this planet. Good luck with your "calculation"!
