The Joker ain't joking (Patreon)

There are two versions of this video. A Patreon version (the one that's linked to from this post) and a regular YouTube version. There's only one difference between the two. Absolutely no Ads in the Patreon edition. This is a small experiment to see how much extra work there is in publishing two versions of the same video.

Turns out this video was a pretty good test case. I ended up mentioning a list of my favorite sailing related audiobooks while mentioning that Audible sponsored the YouTube version of the video. Of course, I don't want to include the sponsored message in the Patreon version of the video. On the other hand, some of you guys might be looking for sailing audiobooks. I'll add the list below :) 

I'm relieved that I now know the true state of the structural members under the cabin sole. I'm excited about getting the chance to modify the layout of Athena. The only thing that has me a little worried is that I don't know how exactly I'm going to pull off this repair. In particular, brasing the hull so it doesn't sag. I've got a few months to figure that out and the rest should be easy-peasy work :) Have any of you guys done or seen anyone do a repair like this before?
