Hi guys!

Happy Friday :) This video is hot of the press. I only just shot the ending a couple of hours ago. The goal for this week was to seal up all leaks that are letting water inside the boat. Was I successful? As soon as we get some rain, I'll let you know ;)

The more I dig around aboard the catamaran, the better an idea of the work involved I get. Getting her back in the water will be a big job, but I'm excited to do the work - even in the blistering heat. Fingers crossed for the AdSense situation and the USCG paperwork!

Ava is still in Canada. After Canada, she will visit her parents for a few weeks and help her mother recover after foot surgery. The good news is that her flight back to Florida is booked (September 12th), so at least I know when I'll get my other half back :)

Have a fantastic weekend, and thank you so much for your support! :)

⛵️ Abandoned DIY hurricane catamaran project. No more leaks! 😱

This week, my goal was to stop all leaks that let water into the catamaran project. I think I got them all, but we won't know until it rains.

Someone suggested these disks to me for grinding fibreglass with the angle grinder. They are excellent. They have a really long life and cut quickly. Sanding Disc for Masonry, Ceramics&Composites, Arbor-Mount, 4-1/2" Diameter https://www.mcmaster.com/4751A51 I did try one of those dust collectors you first showed. It was crap. Maybe I have to look into the one you have.

Mads, have you visited the fine establishment known as Harbor Freight. It’s not for quality tools, but it’s perfect for budget tools and supplies. There are several in Cocoa / Melbourne. The big Blue and Orange box's can hit your wallet.
