okay guys the moment we've all been

waiting for

we have a splash date now we are

confirmed with the boatyard and in two

days

we are going back into the water come

hell our high water

because this is something we have been

waiting for for so long

and our projects are finally coming to a

somewhat

end not really but the big projects is

almost done

everything we need to do on the hard

will be done

yes in two days but we have a huge punch

list of things that we want to tie

up so this next few days is going to be

super busy

and then we're in the water i'm so happy

hard to talk with a smile isn't it it's

yes

i'm just so happy heel this makes me so

happy

better finally after all these years

we're getting scuffers for the cockpit

we have scuppers we still have the

little flappers on it

this will keep your little feet dryer

this will keep the cockpit dry

because every time we have a wave slam

our cockpit will get a little wet and

that's

we'll see you know we'll see how these

work i'm just hoping all your hair

doesn't just kind of hang down from

these

i have a solution no solution you're

keeping your hair i'll pick the hair out

that's the solution such a caveman

make me have long hair that's how i drag

you around you know that

how do you like it you should know

better it looks really good i like it

okay so how many more

we're putting in seven i put in three

basic math had before

[Music]

last one last one

was it nice to just kind of finish up

all these little lingering projects

that one looks different where's the

flapper i took it off

this is the propane locker i just wanted

to put the trim ring so they all match

of course you did of course you did i

don't want to have the flapper on

because i want

the propane to be able to flow out of

here

but it looks pretty right that's all

that matters

you're such a symmetry guy

i am what i am

okay one more off the punch list

yeah so look at this

cockpit cockpit cockpit cockpit cockpit

that's one

two three four five in the cockpit

and

galley sink

i'm not putting one on this though i

didn't want to put one on the beam

yep we're good that's not going to

bother you that not at all there's one

that's

not the same well there's some up here

too on the beans

right here

i think we're good all the flat surfaces

have scuppers on that'll keep your

little feet dry when you're walking

around in your socks

socks i plan on being bare feet

okay on to the next egg

more

yeah so you know it worked out

so teal's been working on the sail

drives and i'm just gonna check to see

if he needs anything

because i'm ready to put on those props

teal teal

that is not part of the punch list

what are you doing you guys he does this

all the time look

i leave him alone for literally five ten

minutes

what does he do he starts painting again

it needed to be done you have a problem

when that log hit is i

had a little bit of just a little bit

right there i forgot to paint it when we

had the paint out but look at that

oh it looks beautiful i'm happy how many

times has he done this

well it's gonna be how many times too

many two more times today because i have

two more coats so

i can't wait to get back in the water so

he can't do this anymore

okay i'm back on the snail ready for one

more coat anyway

drives me crazy how many coats is that

now

that's coat 10 right there um

trilox 3 3 is ablative so we're layering

thin layers on and we get about about 10

coats out of one can you know we did

this last year well

15 months ago and it did wear through a

little bit but it's been almost two

years now almost two years now yeah

but we got zero growth so you know

whatever's in here works

just make sure we get all the spots get

enough coats on here

applying them every half hour there's a

little left maybe another coat out of

this we'll see maybe we got 11 out of

this

when we removed the rudder i didn't have

quite enough clearance

so i had to excavate a little trough you

were sneaky

why did i want to dig this twice so i

left it

left it here look at this there's secret

passages now

like a buried treasure yeah it's

probably gonna be filled with water

let's see probably see if my little

slot's still here

there it is looks good looks good that's

all i need to

get this rudder in okay i'll go grab it

over here

okay go out there walk this way

this way yeah

okay just perfect okay okay let's go up

with it ready to go

grab some blocks

so

oh we have two runners again

okay i've just greased up

the shaft here we're going to put some

loctite on here i do not want this boss

hub to fall off get this to line up

come on

[Music]

there it goes like butter

like butter

i like that handy little tool

a wrench

make sure all that is tightened up got

loctite on these

and these are the

little set screws that keep that

hub from ever backing off when you're in

reverse

so i'm hitting all the grease points on

our

kiwi props we do this every haul out

we use a marine grade lithium grease

it takes a specific tip just kind of

fill this up work it in there

put it back together

yeah i feel a lot much better dry

lubed such a dork dry

transducer paint

no more particles it doesn't go down as

nice as the

bottom paint but gotta have it who cares

remember we hauled out

that this was the only spot that had

garnered

so i want to make sure we get good

protection on this

we have to put two coats on four hours

apart

24 hours before launching yeah that

stuff is thick

yeah no it's don't look too close

doesn't go down smooth but you know what

i don't care if it's ugly

yes i do it's underneath the boat

you're crazy the barnacles can complain

i don't care

that's right

okay we're only applying two coats of

this though so another four hours i'll

put the second coat down

our punchless is getting shorter and

shorter

yes it is

okay two coats done

it looks nice i don't know what you're

talking about

looks okay oh i forgot who i'm talking

to

i'm so sorry

oh that looks good

okay i'm just putting together

the new fittings for the through hole

and was back from her walk

how was the walk people it was good

compost did you enjoy that oh

i'm in his ball

okay i'm just about ready got one put

together

one more to go and we'll have these

installed

emha was actually nice enough to

volunteer to

clean our fenders before we go back in

the water

little did she know the size of the

fenders that she had to clean up

that's two down two more to go

yep actually i'm done with this one now

so just this one much

[Applause]

yeah that's fine

okay here we are something's changed

we're up

on what is it a cradle a trailer a

trailer

yard has uh picked us up removed all the

jack stands

so that gives us an opportunity to paint

uh under the jack stands where they were

so we'll get going on that tonight

because tomorrow morning first thing in

the morning we're going back in the

water

so this is that this is a weird feeling

because

the boat actually does move sideways it

feels like we're on the swing

yeah but you know what i feel almost

safer on this than i do on the jack

stands

we had an earthquake the other night and

we we kind of felt it

just a little bit okay let's get to work

a few more coats and then we're all set

yep this is coat number one we'll get at

least three on here

and the weather cooperated so i am very

happy

i know here comes your son i know

so since we've been lifted up a little

bit higher we're going to

lower the dagger boards and just kind of

hit it

just hit the leading edge with a little

bit more bottom paint as well

got it okay

there you go

going into a haul out you never

anticipate how much work is ahead for

you

obviously we were optimistic about the

amount of work and how quickly we can

bomb through our projects

weather was a huge factor for us as well

as

well everyday life living in the heart

has many challenges that slowed us down

it was either getting sick not getting

materials to arrive on time

teal throwing his back out homeschooling

filming editing and maintaining a sense

of normalcy

we felt at times we were running on

fumes but somehow

when you make that final push and basic

is back

in the water where she belongs all those

hard days seem to melt away

and seem well worth it this was a huge

accomplishment for the crew of sb basic

hey excited nervous

i don't know it's pretty cool actually

going to the water first thing this

morning you know you run through your

head

have i done everything is everything set

did i miss something

i don't think so pretty thorough

of course i laid awake last night just

reliving it just in case

it's a big day for us back in the water

i will never forget my time in napa this

is now my second challah and both times

the one thing that stands out is how

nice everyone has been to us

the yard crew were always so helpful and

friendly to me

i'm usually the only kid on the yard so

sometimes i get lonely

but i love taking compass on walks

around the marina and saying hi to

everyone here

a few things i will never forget about

this hollow is getting to fly over the

napa valley

and the san francisco bay and all the

hot air balloons floating over our boat

but i'm so glad we're getting back in

the water

[Music]

so it's official we are in the water

we're

not sinking yeah everything looks good

it feels so good to be back everybody

turn around isn't it nice

sitting in the cockpit looking at shore

rather than being on shore

looking at the water and we have our

hard top we have

shade it's so nice so this is a time to

celebrate a little early

but i think it's well deserved to have a

little celebratory

bubbly

[Music]

okay people so cheers to all our hard

work

we're back in the water and now on to

new adventures
