Following Meg's diagnosis, health is at the forefront of our minds, so we decide to tackle the one big job we have been holding off on. We replace our badly ...

last time you were with us we showed you

how to do your own fiberglassing make

showed you how to apply medical

superglue then we took you for a journey

to a fun waterhole just outside of

Townsville

whoa Ronnie hi we're at it again this is

one of those nasty nasty jobs we'd have

been putting off for a long time because

oh it's just gross and difficult

we now because we are very mindful of

our health even more than we were before

we were just kind of ignoring it because

it's one of the hardest jobs ever we are

pulling out our old aluminium water

tanks and replacing them and the reason

we have put this off for so long is

because we have to pull up the floor in

the boat so anyway Darren's made us

start to see what's in the biggest tank

and to try and figure out how we're

gonna negotiate take a look again what

is going on here you're doing some

hammer and stuff yeah I was just having

a little inspection in a year in office

what's that that's the part that goes

into the tank oh my god that's uh that's

pretty terrible that is 20 how many

years of well it's 30 30 odd years old

that and rust what is that

it stinks it looks like Carl

well let's tank his well me this tanks

been out of service for quite some time

it but anyway oh my god

if you were wondering why as you pull

your tags apart and replace them there's

your number one reason that's disgusting

oh I'm so glad we haven't been using

this tank for the last few years but I'm

like goodness me

officially grossed out

[Music]

you

[Music]

yes you guessed it we're cutting the

floor out

what else do you do when you've got a

few months to chill oh do you I hope

this is the last big project we have

fingers crossed just thinking the other

day that there's my place on this ship

that I haven't paid but there is this

place

anyway I'm just about to have a look at

it cutting through our old

tongue-and-groove was the only way we

were going to access our tanks

these lids would be partly used later on

to close the tanks off again that was

just what was sitting on the bottom of

the tank I didn't have to scrape that up

or anything it was just just sitting me

so while Darren got on with the tanks I

attended yoga at the marina social room

there are a great bunch of your ladies

attending some of whom have become

lifelong friends

well day three

there isn't full anyone we got the floor

up we've got the tops of the tank set

and I'll just show you what's inside

well this is pretty much what was inside

of the tank there's all these little or

almost like oysters but I'd say that

some form of corrosion oh my god and

that concrete it's uh it's quite a

chalky at that break something really

easy but anyway that's what in our tanks

that we were drinking isn't it just from

that that particular era of tank this

this was in this two smaller

compartments but you know sport a bit of

oh my goodness

caught a bit of making me that's just

outrageous I want to perform it yeah

makes me feel so unwell

we've been drinking out of it yeah we're

doing all right we can still remember

your name that's the upside of it we we

did price up a plastic tank out of

curiosity we thought maybe that would

probably be a first option and I was

like gonna be best part of two thousand

bucks I

we thought oh well maybe we can do

something a little bit tricky with this

one and we're gonna glass the inside of

it and then paint it with a third grade

paint and hopefully that'll that will

fix you a little problem up that'll

reduce all of that people welcome to

what's inside your water tank it's just

gross okay I have no words for how foul

that is and how sick that makes me to

the stomach to look at that oh I'm

really glad we're actually doing this

project now in these two compartments

I've actually put a layer of this cloth

in there already

yep you can sort of see once you

actually paint the restaurant order it

becomes very translucent yeah and what I

did at the start of here's this ribbon

it's quite quite light and flexible for

getting in all around the corners of of

light up all around the edges and all

the corners of I've already pre light up

so you're just gonna lay the glass

straight onto the aluminium and then

build up a few layers from that yeah

pretty much okay

the night markets were down on at the

beach so we went to check out their

delicious food offerings okay time for

us to find a place to chow down

beautiful atmosphere here lots the happy

people lots of people selling them their

wares that they make

right right on the seat really nice

place to be please happy we got seconds

of nothing back at the ranch we find

Darren doing some prep work for the tank

boots okay so you may be wondering what

these little gadgets are that Darren is

injecting into the alloy of our tanks

and these clever little things are

called nut certs and basically they're

not inserts if you look at it from that

perspective so it's a little housing but

you kind of rivet in to a surface and

then screw your nut or bolt into it very

clever called a nut search handy to have

on board so these are all the little nut

sets and the lid will be bedded down and

screwed down into the nut suits look

what my clever husband has been up to

the tanks are looking bright and fresh

and you

yes I clever my honey

yeah well I'm really happy with pear the

tanks have come up with we've used this

product called Jotun tank guard

supposedly got all the green ticks it's

a it's a two pack enamel and yeah really
