Great video. I loved the innovative problem solving techniques you come up with.

I ran Lewmar Marine in Canada years ago and used to visit Havant frequently. I loved the place and also enjoyed the local pubs in the area. Why not call Lewmar and have one of their service engineers visit Florence to service all the Lewmar gear and check the cable connections in the new pedestal? You’re loyal Lewmar clients, local and it would be to their advantage to spend 1 day offering you some TLC and customer support. Just drive by the factory and ask…. They shouldn’t hesitate to say yes!! There’s nothing like a satisfied client!!!

When yo9u are bending tubing wrap a coil of wire around the tube (think of a spring) tightly, and then apply the pressure. Talk to some old fashioned machinist who might have vastly more knowledge than I do, I was but a wee apprentice when I saw this done. And we had access ro a lathe to make the winding easier and very accurate.

The new Lewmar steering station is absolutely delightful, so convenient having the factory so close. This refit has taken on a whole new dimension, the ability of a team is quite apparently here as was your episodes around the world on Florence. We all are inspired with the attention to each detail, not cutting corners, and your ability to exhibit a product well done.

I was a boat builder for over 20 years. One of the things that we made sure to do was to bed in a non-adhesive sealant any hardware that might need to be removed. This included cleats, rub rails, toe rails, and the like. We never used adhesive sealants on windows and port holes.

That looks a bit like the boatyard where GRP Versatility range of fishing boats used to be built. I did some windows like that on a GRP cabin and used two M6 stainless washers on each bolt to give me the clearance for the sealer to form a gasket and stop squeeze out and they were ok.

Since, you already have the toe rail in place, this is just a fyi, a UK company that also supplies extrusions to outfits like BAe would also have been able to bend the toe rail. Your toe rail is just like an extrusion that is in a variety of places in an aircraft, except in an aircraft they can have any stresses bent into them(you did) because stress cause the extrusions to fail. They first pull the extrusion to yield and then bend them to shape. I would imagine that there are a variety of shops in your area that could have formed the rail for you. Just a FYI.

If you were to sail the Great Lakes instead of the Artic it would ease corrosion problems. : )
Also please remember to check the keel bolts.
Also cotton trousers are more comfortable to work in than jeans.
Great work you two !

Your attention to detail and not cutting any corners at all, is a testament to the integrity that you both bring to everything you do, and have done, on your sailing adventures. That takes a whole lot of discipline and determination indeed. Well done for all of that, cheers!
