The start of boat projects, lots of boat projects. Hauling out the boat after 1,5 years of full-time cruising...
I'm hauling out the boat in St. Kitts at St. Kitts Marine Works, explore where to go to get materials, do preparations for boat work and start the first job, sanding the hull !
Limonada will be beautiful again :)
From buying a sailboat, to making it ready to sail, to sailing the Caribbean

365 days I crewed on sailboats from San Diego, USA all the way down to Panama, stopping in Mexico and Costa Rica. After Panama crossing the Pacific Ocean to New Zealand stopping at islands like the Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia, Tonga and Fiji
45 days I traveled through New Zealand from the Northernmost point to the Southernmost point, then
100 days I traveled by motorbike through Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, then
365 days I traveled in my self-built campervan from Kyrgyzstan to Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, then
365 days I traveled with this van through Iran and Pakistan, then
180 days I built an off-grid log cabin in the woods in Spain, then
180 days I restored an old sailboat in Guatemala, then
365 days I traveled with this sailboat from Guatemala to Honduras, Cuba, Jamaica, Bahamas, Turks and Caicos, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Grenada and more islands in the East Caribbean
Currently I am #haulout while being at #saillife meeting #madssaillife

Thank you for putting so much love into every detail of your videos. everything is so well filmed! That is certainly just as complex as the boat repair itself ;)

Put wooden bungs in your thru-holes to keep out mice, bugs, ants, etc. Consider putting some Bay leaves and/or Peppermint oil in/on the boat too.

Huub, a couple of things on the fiberglass work...that gouge on the bow wasn't that big so mat is OK in that application, but cloth is considerably stronger since it's a tight weave and not just chopped strands. Mat finishes out easier because it will more readily conform to shapes. A nice compromise material for you to keep on the boat is combination cloth & mat material; you get the best qualities of both for quick repairs. I saw you once use mat inside the boat to tab/reinforce around chainplate knees or something. That should have been pure cloth of sufficient weight. And regarding waiting for the honey-like consistency, you'd probably be better off just spooning in a tiny bit of cabosil to thicken instead of waiting for it to tack up. You'll get a better glue bond that way. I understand you not wanting the mix to be too runny and getting drips

If your going to do be doing any sanding/grinding with fiberglass "MAINLY ON THE INSIDE" Use plastic and tape and "tent" off the area your working on. Then use your vacuum with a filter and vacuum bag. The vacuum bag will give you a longer run time then just using the filter. keep the vacuum outside the tent OR outside the boat if you have a long enough hose. The idea is to keep a negative air pressure on the area your sanding if your doing sanding inside the boat. That will cut way down on stray fiberglass getting all over the inside of the boat. And clean up becomes more easy when its contained to the area you are working on using the vacuum. Working on the outside hull paint. You would be better off with a dual action orbital sander on the outside of the hull. On the fiberglass repairs such as the small repair to the bow, Mask off the painted surfaces with 2" wide tape leave the fiberglass to be repaired exposed. Take your matt and rip up the matt into shreds mix it with the epoxy and maybe some thickener. Then apply it to the surface and use peelply and some plastic over that. Use a plastic spreader to draw the air out of the fiberglass layup. TAPE the edges of the peelply and plastic if/as needed. Then you do the entire project in one go. If you mask off the painted area using the 2" masking tape, the resin and fiberglass does not get onto the paint and other boat hardware. It also cuts down on steps needed to be taken when sanding and minimal fairing there after before painting.

Wow! This is really my type of Huub video. When I read the title of the video I had a sense of deja vu, unfortunately for this haul out he does not have his boat buddy from the previous haul out. 😞 I always enjoy you showing the inside and merchandise of the businesses. I was completely surprised to see your boat being placed on the ground for this work. Take your time with these videos, I always learn something new.

The cans of food that have paper glued to them, roaches love that glue. Rip the label off and scrub the glue off, then take a black magic marker and write what's in the can. Once roaches setup house in your boat it become a disgusting problem to get rid of them.
