Okay guys, so
0:02
in this video You'll see us You know preparing a little bit for this storms. This is a storm round
0:12
to 50,000 so storms have been awesome and Then a horrible winner. Yes
0:22
And then the cruise ship over here wants to make all kinds of noise
0:27
But we also go over getting our game talking about how they it's dinner time dinner time and
0:36
And their battle thrusters are gonna rock us even more than we're rocking
0:41
so But we do we go over getting our dinghy ready So the Coast Guard if they decide to pull us over we have all the equipment we need in there
0:49
Tell me if I'm missing stuff because I might not get all right
0:54
More to all the issues, but this is a Yeah, it's a it's a continuing saga on this boat and
1:06
We go over inventory Danielle find something very interesting in inventory See y'all stay tuned we'll get into this so we're preparing our dinghy
1:21
Us Coast Guard safety equipment tell me if I'm wrong though, but I
1:27
Have an anchor in here. That's not us Coast Guard required but I'm gonna have an anchor also, I'm gonna have a
1:36
Extension handle for our outboard not us Coast Guard required, but still more convenient
1:41
Things that I am by us Coast Guard required is a little whistle and I have a depth sign sounder
1:47
But in here Not us Coast Guard required, but it's a need to inflate the damn thing
1:55
Put that in here Maybe away from the anchor so it doesn't puncture the bellow
2:02
the hose for the inflator some flares probably going to replace these because
2:08
Leave the right today. Let's see here December 2022 yep, they're expired. So I have to get some new one of these
2:17
All my stuff to of course Keep the dinghy inflated with the air pump and also a new seal and the seal replacement tool
2:28
Put that in there some patches. This has patches and blue patches and sandpaper
2:37
And then finally some life jackets not the coolest things in the world, but keep getting a ticket
2:46
I Put that in there two of them because I Of course want my baby to ride with me
2:54
See if I can fit all this in here Life jackets may have to go at the bottom so I can access the anchor. I'm just gonna string string these all around
3:06
Every time I want to get full length Wow Safety kits a little big and there's no first aid in here. That's not required by the Coast Guard
3:21
but I Like to cut my feet on coral, so I may have to include some band-aids. So I'm not bull shark bait
3:31
There we go, everything's in the bag see how much does my bag weigh
3:47
And I can store a stir and I can store this under the sea. It's toast. Oh, I can't talk
3:54
so this is a US Coast Guard plus some personal crap safety bag
4:02
Gotta keep your balls inflated. I've already got the big ball inflated. Now. I got this fender right here
4:09
But Constant maintenance Checking lines expecting balls and fenders You won't leave your fingers and balls
4:32
Little squishy. Yeah, so you Throw that down there and pretty much all our lines are pulling about this way
4:41
So that way we have basically about six foot eight foot to the other boat this way
4:50
We don't have much and this is where we go on and off so our lines this way will keep us off that boat
4:57
These lines on this side will not keep us off this wall So we have a lot of cushion here
5:05
Here's our fuse panel and our front head or bow head is right here
5:11
And watch that DC voltage or amperage It just pigs all the way up
5:19
and then it continues to flip so Let's go see what's going on in here
5:25
so in the our bow bedroom in the back of the boat right down here and
5:33
Looks pretty easy to get off and it's a blip It's above the wire line. It's above the
5:40
Black wire tank So I shouldn't have too much trouble Okay, excuse that board, but it's keeping the
5:48
Mattress from falling on me. It says do not screw around with the factory presets
5:55
So there's only one screw in this One point there was two everything's missing screws on this boat
6:05
And that's my wife up there she's taking care of that chrome
6:10
Screwdriver head is too big It's fun messing with things they say don't touch
6:21
So This looks like our pressure relief if the pressure gets too high
6:29
And This is our pump So I'm gonna have y'all tell me if that turns any
6:38
See here's our wiring There's no pressure on it So
7:04
Let me take a look at what y'all saw okay, so This is a cutoff relay for
7:11
the motor Go see if I can Make it move a little bit I
7:25
Didn't get to move at all Think I got to move a little bit
7:33
Go ahead and see if I can add some lubrication in here
7:39
This is dielectric grease who it's hot See if I can squeeze some of this in there
7:49
I Say cheap, but I'll have a special grease right now and there's dog hair in there
8:11
They all tell me if it moves now Oh
8:25
Yeah Okay, now you see it running and We're
8:35
almost hitting 20 So a lot less power. I'm hoping once that lubrication starts getting in there. It'll even go down more
8:46
But yeah, just get some lube, okay, I'm gonna flush the toilet
8:52
And it's pressured again, okay, my baby's out here doing maintenance on the boat
9:01
It's been about three months since we put teak oil on that probably didn't bring enough on the first time
9:08
I Just soak it It doesn't look great and here's what that teak looks like if you don't
9:18
All that just turn the gray Okay, now my baby is cleaning up this teak and you can see the gray
9:31
Teak oil just it's gonna take a few coats, but it just soaks right in
9:37
I Don't like things looking gray Like like my beard my goatee
9:54
And when you get enough oil in it that is what it looks like right there that looks beautiful
10:03
Yeah, my baby got that teak looking good I want you to clean the back down there
10:23
Always and the blue tarp is because We don't like to get cold at night
10:37
Oh What happened I know oh I get
10:49
Okay, don't worry. It's in the middle of the pillow babe in between us
10:57
There we go Look at all clean and stuff I
11:21
Baby got all cleaned up. Look at that. Oh my gosh Still needs another scrub down. It was pretty dirty. You'd use that deck stuff. Yeah
11:32
There's Non-skid deck cleaner by star bright. Mm-hmm. That's pretty well and getting into that grooves and stuff. Oh
11:43
It looks good. It smells good out here too now Stains I have to work on getting off. These are nasty
11:56
Want me to take him out to the deck and spray off
12:02
Off Okay guys, so she's got This looking pretty good really good, so
12:12
yeah, and Excuse the tarp. It gets cold here in Florida. Actually, we had it up because it was really really windy and cold
12:22
well, it was like 65 but that's cold. Hey, it's cold But yeah, so it's looking really good round two cleaning this fiberglass
12:35
well It's got a layer of chalkiness, you know, like go back and watch those boat videos of our
12:43
motorboat Mm-hmm. It's got a layer of chalkiness on it And these are my work clothes
12:51
But they're my work clothes and I'm not gonna dirty up my other clothes So it does seem to be giving it a shine
12:59
Take this and buff it Definitely gave it a shot. Oh, yeah, if you want to contrast that
13:09
Yeah Hopefully you can see that but this is What's plastic fiberglass
13:24
Be polishing the chrome with it, I mean the stainless stainless with this too
13:30
I just wanted to see if it got these marks off because when I was cleaning yesterday
13:36
the Soap must have ran down and hard to see on it. Yeah, you got it like
13:44
Yeah, like um You know drip lines And I don't feel like scrubbing the entire boat again, so I'm just gonna see
13:58
Yeah, see mm-hmm it came right off And it looks shiny It does look shiny
14:07
My work though Yep And
14:17
I'm back here working on the dinghy engine It's uh, it runs
14:22
but like Decker over at Dick's water adventure. He said he probably gonna have to rebuild the bottom and a
14:34
Shaft and I think he's right So I'm out here working on the dinghy and now
14:41
Noticing in this fuel line right here on the side here. I'm getting air bubbles
14:46
So this little piece right here. I see is it's leaking a bit and
14:52
I think I might have some o-rings that can put on this connector
14:57
For a fuel line, but this thing's supposedly brand new. I don't know why it would be leaking already
15:05
But Also, I have some o-rings to fix my wife's hose because she's cleaning
15:12
Now my wife pulled out mr. Clean sponge But mr. Clean will wipe them right off it's abrasive so it's basically sand in the gel coat
15:30
Get this one right here you get down Oh Yeah
15:45
And then we Leave that and then we have this black up here, but you take that off too. Oh
15:52
My gosh, it makes it look so shiny. Oh Wow Mm-hmm. You'll take y'all
16:01
Oh, but it looks so shiny mr. Clean sponge is magic on
16:22
My ship's gonna demonetize this video Oh
16:36
Nasty right there. Okay early in the morning. We got our our fridge
16:43
Shut it off overnight It's empty. And yeah God you frost just like every month on but
16:52
Here's what it looks like now. So Get nice and clean As clean as it's gonna get but and my
17:02
Freaking hydraulic quit working so I'm not getting you one of those so me and Danielle are just in here inside hunkering down during this windstorm and
17:14
Hoping not to get blown away Okay So we're out here and get a really hard blow we're seeing
17:28
winds upwards of 50 knots actually over 50 knots The biggest thing I could record was 40 knots a little over 40 knots but
17:39
read our lines and Just go ride this out. It's supposed to be all day
17:45
So as you can see I put two lines on the front here
17:49
This is where the majority of the wind is coming from now on this side. We have a slack line
17:53
So we really don't have to reinforce it, but it's all on our port side that we really have to mess with
18:02
Okay, we're going all through the boat found these brother filters We're gonna buy one just because we have five filters Oh
18:15
Yeah, a six-pack You guys show him your other device you found
18:37
And I'm throwing away I mean, you'll be good I don't like
18:54
filming this hopefully y'all can help me out. I need spare parts. I miss but we're gonna go through our inventory and
19:02
I'll write down some things. I think we're missing But your help would be greatly appreciated
19:08
but on spare parts on this boat This macerator is the old one you go back to see that video where it was a big crap fest
19:17
but I'm probably gonna throw this away because it won't pump up and I'll just replace it with
19:23
Probably a sea flow or something like that but We have the old water pump
19:32
Which it still spins doesn't feel like the bearings are bad, so I'm gonna keep this around
19:37
I may clean it up later because well, we'll clean up later because I want to make sure it's good before we leave the US
19:46
but Yeah Plus I can see what size Impeller we need because we don't have any of them. So
19:55
This is a raw water pump And I'll just do a dash one
20:01
I'm gonna do this on paper because I could just scratch out and add counts as they change through this
20:12
We have this is a engine starter I checked it is new
20:20
So we have one Two this is a new one. It's just a bag
20:29
Connections with brand new things like that. So hopefully it works I'd use that one first
20:36
engine starter Purdue dash to scratch out and change it we have a this is a
20:46
60 amp alternator. It's I opened it. It's new So for the main engine will I have one of them
20:58
This is For a water pump. It's a basically a pressure sensor
21:04
so we got one of these and this goes to the Basically our house pressure now for
21:16
The I Want this So this is basically the
21:30
Sureflow is what? Pressurizes the whole house five gallon per minute And we have one of these
21:41
Start stacking up over here Okay, and then we have This blaster pump
21:50
it could be used as in a pinch as a water pump or
21:55
maybe a To look up see if they'll handle a salt wire because I could use it as a wash down for the anchor chain
22:04
And then we have another Water pressure pump this is a this could be used also in the
22:13
replace our five gallon per Minute and this is a 2.9 gallon per minute. So
22:22
Okay This is not a spare part. This is a This is a record fuel filter for the dinghy so I guess it could be for the dinghy
22:36
Because it comes with this little hose right here But then it comes with it has these filters. These are for
22:45
big record Filter for the main engine, so I'm going to install this on the dinghy. It will keep the water out of the fuel and keep everything nice
22:56
But this is not a spare part. But of course these filters are we have three
23:03
Record fuel filters for main engine. Yeah, it's for the main engine. So
23:12
I'm gonna print record filters and we have three of those So those are gonna go
23:20
I'm moving all these I hear because I'm going to use this space for something else
23:26
Okay, so I have three floats for our Bilge pump and three and I have two these are brand new bilge pumps
23:40
Nice to have These are the 1500 gallons per hour and we got two of these
23:50
Okay, so I have my inventory I'm gonna put these back here. But
23:55
Look at this. I need Probably just macerator pumps. That's what I'm thinking
24:05
And Then well I do have oil filters find them Got two. Yeah, I'm our oil filters
24:17
And oh I need So we need macerators and I'm guessing we'll probably need two of those
24:28
eventually, but we have zero right now and And then we need the
24:36
Oh shoot what's that It's a little wheel on the for the raw water pump
24:43
Yeah, I can't remember. Tell me in the comments. We have zero of those
24:48
Probably need some more plumbing fittings and things like that. But I do have a plumbing container right here
24:53
I'm gonna go through but all these I might go these are gonna go back where my
24:58
Macerator that I replaced in the the after this boat There's a whole line of space up there so I can free up this space because it's pretty tall cabinet
25:07
And it's more usable for other things Okay, so I have all the parts back here this is where our macerator resides and
25:21
That part I was I need impellers That's what I was looking for I've got my plumbing drawer out and so
25:32
But that's a whole bunch of duck valves right there So we bought four of them. I
25:39
Have quite a few of them here. So we got plenty of spares. I
25:44
Told him he's not allowed to buy anything until he knows his inventory We've been we waited
25:50
four days for those When we had him on the boat And
25:58
Guys if you know what this is Tell me I I don't know
26:04
It's got these it looks like it's for definitely a toilet or something, but I don't know where it goes so
26:11
I'm sure someday. I will repair something and I'll say oh, I've got that
26:17
Yeah Yeah, don't know where it goes But it's a lever pump. I don't even think we have vacuum pump
26:26
So I don't even know if we can even use these but we got we got two of them right here. So
26:32
I'm gonna hang on until these are for the Hatches are the
26:40
Lockers back there. This is a This is for the vacuum pump. This is a compression
26:48
Pressure switch to turn off and on the pump. This is a old one. I can see it's rusted. So
26:55
Maybe it works. Maybe it doesn't see The switch works So
27:07
That's good, this hose is best to sit over here I've got a big old thing of seals
27:15
Right here So save that Don't know what this is it goes together like that and I have this piece
27:26
This looks like it might go to something out there But don't know what is
27:32
Spray head nozzle Kissing, uh, whatever it's that hose I can use spray head nozzle
27:45
This is steering arm parts This looks like it goes to our dripless, this is the old one
28:00
And the rubber feels pretty good But Have that one back there
28:10
Not to take out back there someday and see if we need to replace that
28:16
these are for the The Seacock filters, these are all raw wire filters definitely want these lying around
28:25
I have some plastic ones in here too. Don't know what these little things are. They look like little handles
28:34
But I'm at a loss This looks like a plunger plug a hose in I'm thinking this is what you use to clean out the vacuum toilets
28:49
That seems like a logical solution I Have a whole bunch of hose right here
28:58
so This is ready to 120 psi 100 psi
29:11
Definitely gonna hang on to plumbing hose. This looks like it goes to a shower nozzle
29:19
Yeah, so it looks like these are just straps, I don't know what these are but
29:28
They look like fittings for Holding something together These are
29:38
Dip caps What they look like to me Tell me what you think that's for one of my power cords. I'm gonna put that and this is looks like a sink connector
29:51
this is this is all my odds and ends like plumbers tape and
30:00
Why I use cable to tie things down and this right here is just a bunch of That
30:10
Looks like for a house store right here Magnetic catches And
30:23
Copper plug Miscellaneous crap and that whole bunch of whatever these things are
30:30
Look like some kind of latch system. Yeah. Yeah, that's what it is. These are clickers
30:38
So this is all that flashing stuff These I guess are the hooks for it. It's a pretty cool
30:49
And my earrings Okay, well My earrings Okay reduces sediment premium filters
31:17
I'll have to give me something that fits these filters These are my record searches put these in my engines it's going
31:37
More record filters Wow
31:52
More filters Record filters winch parts Luma winch maintenance kit see
32:05
Definitely gonna have to use this Yeah Look on the old Luma is out there
32:15
Sending block gonna be doing a lot of sanding in our future
32:19
Here's a putty scraper sandpaper small pump template paid off Something ah
32:28
This is how we test the toilets right here This piece I'm gonna put this over with the plumbing
32:35
But this is what you you basically pull a vacuum The toilet and then you make sure it holds
32:46
The showerhead needs to be with the plumbing So hopefully you enjoyed this video and
32:50
You tell me all the crap I'm missing Because I'm probably missing a lot of crap
32:54
But minus in the crappers I don't know we just bought a bunch of crap again Yeah
33:00
There's never any expenses. I know everybody says oh, that's boat life. Yeah, I I get that but why does it have to be
33:04
You know You know You know You know You know
33:14
Why does it have to be In the first Four months of owning a boat. I mean why
33:20
Yeah, the next video is gonna have a little bit more of what we're spending money on
33:26
So y'all stay tuned for that. That's gonna be fun And uh Yeah
33:33
No, it's not Also y'all guys check out this girl's recipes Oh the corn she just released Delish
33:41
So y'all check that out Make sure I continue making it Um
33:49
Having a little struggles with our kitchen But we'll get that up and running here soon
33:53
So y'all look forward to Seeing that video as well And I know y'all out there
33:59
Who said you shouldn't turn it into an electric kitchen There's a reason why we turned it into an electric kitchen
34:05
Well propane's a heavy gas A lot of it had to do with safety reasons
34:09
And also um I do a I do a recipe blog That has proven to be
34:17
Financially beneficial to us So we wanted to Actually continue doing that So
34:25
And most people don't have gas in their house So we Most people do use electricity
34:31
So I try to keep it with electric You know Hopefully I'm not shaking so much
34:37
But yeah so That will also show our kitchen Once I get it all figured out
