okay back out to the foredeck to get

more work done today it's a lot cooler

today so I'll take advantage of this get

it so excited to get the rest of deck

white I mean this is what it's chanting

up like and this is what it's starting

out like we've had this boat for seven

and a half eight years and this is all

we've ever seen so to get a white that's

exciting so now I'm gonna prep all day

day and hopefully Prime and paint

tomorrow we're not doing I took the

specs of our new hatches which are

shipping to us right now and Irish aped

this opening here and I raised the lip

up bared it all out used a wet system

epoxy and fairing compound so this would

be real close hopefully it fits exact

but I'll let you know there's that true

hole I had a fitting right here a deck

fitting I pulled that out there that

glass hat that's done so we're looking

pretty smooth up here one more day of

sanding and fairing and we'll be able to

knock it out

[Music]

everything's ready caches are off

everything's taped up I'm gonna paint

the next segment

the foredeck here

we'll see how this goes should go nice

and smooth it's a perfect day got a

little breeze temperatures about 70 okay

let's have at it

[Music]

okay next now that the front deck is

white

they started tackling this about 350

square feet up here

did you pull it off you can see where

I've started to fare when I was fearing

this I just ran it wild over this little

bit so this is the old deck and here's

the first skim coat of faring I did to

skim coats of faring a sub dividing a

sum of this out that's just too much to

do in one job so here's have skim coated

the first coat over here I'll sand this

out today and skim it one more time sand

it out do the same thing on the other

side and paint that way it only leaves

about 250 square feet up here to do I'll

just keep nickel and diming it out close

it's done

[Music]

[Music]

got the fire off so if you're working

time

just a minute or two if I'm doing it

early in the morning increase my working

head yeah afternoon you get about 30

seconds to work sometime no fun

even though starting to fire I'll still

get a little bit less

[Music]

[Music]

we're painting today one more portion

the boat

see we're kind of working our way into

the middle of the main cabin it's thick

and nice that ideal thank you so this is

just probably we're doing now and after

this I will go ahead and do our first

coat of inter luxe right side the rolled

tip method

ruining a couple of errands in between

our primer so we're gonna go get some

feel propane and then head over to

fisheries and grab another gallon of

paint because we are not ready for the

next phase so excited

it's amazing what it does to make you

feel like you're getting somewhere even

though we know that all these projects

is just kind of coming together the

paint kind of submits everything so

what's weird to me as you could sand and

sand and sand and prep and Fair for

weeks and it in ten minutes you'd throw

some paint on and yet we went over the

fisheries and somehow someone has bought

all of their white paint so we are down

to half a quart and fingers crossed that

it'll be enough to do the first coat of

paint

this is just kind of a quick first coat

we're not looking for perfection we're

just looking for little treatment

obviously we're anxious to go so we've

come to the conclusion that if there's

an area that we don't like once we're

cruising you can always go back and sand

and refine it but if we waiting for or

if we just keep doing what we're doing

we're never gonna leave at this rate

[Music]

so smiley peeking out

so we got to move fast as this stuff

likes to drive pretty quickly

next thing is getting this off of dad

handled

what I'm doing just took the traveler

off

I never liked all this look - anyway it

was too flat feedback hang and a pillar

of ice promising and I can see that

there was damage in the deck as well and

it just a little while get it clean sand

it out builded up glass over it and then

blend it into the deck before I paint

this whole area got a about a two-week

stretch of nice weather so I'll get a

lot I shouldn't get this whole thing

done so backhand it onto the decks then

skin coding preparing compound to squirt

beaded between one batch about two

square feet fires off pretty quick my

working time is about three minutes

let's see we're at

see I got quite a bit I do one skim-coat

then I'll sand it and do another the

travellers starting to take shape - I've

got an epoxy in place here next I'll

shape it with bearing compound now the

epoxy starting to fire off I'm gonna

harden for one day I'll shape it with

fairy compound then I'll lay claps cloth

about three inches out up over and three

inches out then I'll fare that in be

nice and strong

starting to strip some of the old stuff

off the boat here this hatch this things

glued clothes we've never since we've

owned this boat hoping the fact yes and

it's leaks there's tape there's blue

previous owners try to silicone it

obviously a problem we have a new hats

going in I need to prep the decks anyway

so we're gonna try to get this thing at

least open today

No when I start crying you start pulling

up on that side to get your fingers

right here right here

there we go

there we go never been open look at this

thing look at this thing losing out

beautiful and straight into the shower

[Music]

here we go nice day in Seattle it is 73

degrees out which is a nice day

here's what we're painting our decks

white everybody always asked why I

resent such a stark white well here's

why on a 73 degree day the deck on the

white 77 degrees we go to a little bit

lighter color here the old deck which is

this cream color ninety two point four

that's go to the darker color which I

haven't sanded out yet 109 so the color

of your deck really makes a difference

all that energy is just coming right

through the top cabinet and coming into

the boat so if we could keep the deck

30 degrees cooler it's going to keep us

more happy one so prepping this next

area for paint there was a lot of damage

on the deck here and it was very

anything so what I ended up doing this

layering glass pot and I'd layer a

little bit fare a little bit layer a

little bit there a little bit and then

after all that was all leveled out I put

one continuous sheet over it now I'm

going to sand this out bear it and cut

for paint should have paint down on this

whole portion and buy two days got the

hatches out new hatches coming in still

waiting for this hatch over here it's in

rat to us so I do not want to prep that

tug at the hatch physically here up skim

coated this whole section once sanded it

now I've skimmed it a second time I'll

sand it one more time so let's come

along

let's take a look at other things

looking right now starting to get white

real way

these three hatches and this window Bank

here is a pretty major project I'm gonna

finish the painting to here before I do

that okay good morning Seattle let's get

to work

so starting to get all the hatches in

we've got 11 hatches to replace on this

boat here's one right here I'll show you

how I had to pull out the old hatches

and these hatches are 20 plus years old

so I'm not replacing them with the

original manufacturer which came from

Europe somewhere so I've got a Vitas

replacement hatch that is slightly

bigger in each of the cases so I have

two so you can see what I've done I've

laid out my cuts here I'm gonna cut this

out and then I will sand and fare this

out right here and blend the decks into

here because the old hatches were that a

bigger flange so I don't want any of

this roughness to show then I'll prep it

all up and get this painted

everything with a 220 thread I went

through there was a couple of little

imperfections so I went through and kind

of built a few of those up figure if you

want to put a toilet paint on them just

get a little more more time

I'll go over the whole surface when 320

and then wipe it down with three three

three before I paint the Mexico so I'm

just concentrating on this area right

now because these windows are going in

Nick's about ten days from now these

windows being

as paint is cured for 10 days so it's

plenty hard to do a nice scuff sanding

right

[Music]

the second and third coats of the DAC

now that we're a hundred percent covered

so now I'm going through now that the

high gloss is on I can't see I'm going

back through and that goes into pitting

right through here build that then I can

dance and this out with 220 I want you

to hold that this way just finding any

little talk mark any little divot that I

don't know that I'm not happy with and

I'm fixing it before the second and

third toes so I'll put an extra coat

right over this area then put two more

coats over then one more coat of hunk of

non-skid so I said I'm working on today

on just this area up here so I'll go

through this whole thing hand sanded

prep it and get ready for paint tomorrow

take me about five to seven days to get

another coat on this whole boat 21st

2017 Seattle what are you seeing him

kind of cool skin dark isn't it in the

morning and it's gonna be dark in a few

minutes five more minutes

I know it's it's like dusk right now I

know it's almost gone let me see if we

can get this

Eclipse is over so if you read the

intellects painting instructions that

says eclipse days are the best days to

paint so I'm gonna paint today just

kidding but I've got everything I sanded

everything hand sanded everything with a

220 grit got everything taped off

everything's all set to go
