Tack!

Best boat restoration on RU-vid, does not get more "organic" more original, authentic than this channel. Well done guys, keep it up.

looking good 😎💚💙👍👍🍺🍺🍻

Hard work! Stressful! It's going to be so worth it!!!! Cracking job A!! Love from Michigan USA

You are very brave to start such a grandiose project, and well done for the fact that your arms have grown from your shoulders. GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!!!

Hello again you two. Wow, great intro at the beginning. You've come a long way since you got that boat! Still a lot of damaged woodwork replacing to do, but it will look great when you get it done. Every week is a new adventure. Ok, take good care and enjoy. Looking forward to next week. Ciao, geo

That's proper team work. Great progess as usual well done you two !

Great work, love your show

Much has already been done over the last year. Congratulations!

You’ve got to have a big heart to take on a job like this and keeping going in the early days is not easy but here you are a year on, fantastic, well done!

Wow! Your bilge looks great. I think I'm feeling a bit of bilge envy.

She's looking good.

I can't wait to see you floating somewhere!

Funny a bit of paint makes things look a lot better better. The bilge nearly there.

WOW! Looks GREAT!

You guys have come so far. I can hardly wait till you put her in the water

Looking better each week 👍🏻 Keep on going, it will be a very nice boat.

It’s all starting to come together, you can really see the progress.

The intro really showed how far you have come! Well done! :-) Painting the bilge made such a huge difference too! Richard (UK)

So nice to see you two just making your future.

You guys are SO awesome!!!! Living my dream. Hold fast sailors

The holding tank needs to be high enough to gravity drain. If no direct outlet to sea from toilet (ie via a diverter) make sure it's easy to poke something into the tank right down to the seacock. The holding tank will block at some point. Everyone says it won't because they'll be careful - but it will. Consider putting a valve in the breather hose - so that if the holding tank outlet is blocked you can pump air into it from the toilet to pressurise and unblock (unless something explodes first!).

Hi Marina & Stu!! Just stopped by to say "Hola!" Looking better every week!! 💥🛥💥

Take the teak surround off the mirror and get a new mirror and flat mount it

It is looking great. The end results is going to be just amazing. Keep up the great work. I know it seems like a handful right now.

That bilge looks beauteous guys! All ready to receive clear blue water 🤣🤣 But seriously guys you have come a long way! Great watching it transform.

We are so proud of the work you’ve done on Seabird, but also on the very hard work you’ve put on growing your channel. LOVE you folks! 😎❤️😎❤️😎🥰🥰🥰

I had forgotten some of the beginning and it was really cool to look back and see where you started and how far you have come with SeaBird. Fantastic job you both are doing. Ciao

What a great intro - makes us appreciate just how far you’ve come! Nice work M&S!

Great video as always

Y'all should be very proud of how far you've come in this restoration, it's very impressive and we all look forward to your next video, keep up the good work, it will pay off

Fantastic progress, you two! You make my weekend every time!

Great progress this week! keep it up! :)

A good idea I have seen for tank vents is to run them into stanchion bases with holes in the stanchions. A friend's boat had that. The only negative was once when they didn't realize the tank was full, flushing turned the stanchion into a sort of poo sprinkler head.

I think you found a very good place for that tank.Your boat is really big so you find always options. The vent should be straight up i think. Keep it simple Stu!

It’s still hard work. Even so hard watching hing you two work feels like work (😊) . Off course. You two are really motivated to realise your dream. Keep it up !

Looks great!

I just realized that Marina is left-handed. How did I not see that before? I have been following for at least two years. You are both doing a really good job of bringing this boat back to life, and doing it properly. She will be a safe, secure, and comfortable home for you for many years to come.

Good things are happening!

Great work Team Seabird. Seems like you have achievef a lot since those early days. Keep going ❤❤❤

Your rollers and paint trays will arrive Thursday! Have a great week!

Lots and lots of work this year. Cleaning, fumes. itchy fiberglass, sanding, welding and so much more.

So impressed

Good work! ❤❤

Buen trabajo chicos! Ya va teniendo mucha mejor pintaaaa! Es genial ver un barco volver a la vida como vosotros lo estáis haciendo! Consiguiendo granito a granito como las hormiguitas! Y aprovechando toda oportunidad! No a golpe de money, money, moneyyy!!! Ánimo q vais genial! Saludos Marina & Stu!

Marina I bet you never thought that first time Stuart said come with me and sail round the world you never thought you'd be arse up in the smelly old bilge of. a 50 footer don't worry luv one day eh! All good guys cheers n beers Marty Australia

Really shaping up nicely! Before you know it y’all will be able to have a working head👍

Love watching you two just get on with it. It might not all work in then first instance but you fix as you go and its looking AMAZING.

Wow you guys have done an amazing job on that boat!! I quit watching awhile back and it s looking beautiful!!! Well done!!!!

No comment. Excellent work. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💪

I've watched from the start and enjoyed every vlog and seeing the progress. Well done so far, the finish line isn't far now. Most people would have given up but you both stuck with it. This shows strength and commitment. ❤

Hahaha righty tighty lefty Loosey. Is definitely the only way to remember that.

With the intro we can see the immense work accomplished. Marina and Stuart, you are a wonderful team. It is a great pleasure to subscribe to help you make this wonderful project. Very beautifull work this week!!!!😀

Probably don't want to add any length to tank vent, as maximum venting will speed decomposition and less stink.

Hi, my experience with the inline black water tank is very good: Easy handling and no bad odours, at least on the boat we chartered this May. We used it for 2 weeks. 2 factors are important: size and location. size: 25 liters volume seem very little to me, I would double that amount. location: as high above the waterline as possible. The location you chose may be too low in order to empty well ba itself. The outgoing hose needs to attach from below (that's "inline") in the deepest spot. There are conical upright tanks available that adapt to the form of the hull.

The bilge looks fantastic painted. Well done!

When you are working on the inside of the hull it looks like one of those old time 'coal effect' electric fires that I member from my youth. Nice to see it all gong so well!

awesome progress!

Great progress. 🎉

You guys are amazing. There is no project that want jump in and tackle it. Your dedication and hard work is appreciated by many of your followers. Keep up the good work. Cheers from Austin, TX

I think Marina could do with pampering like a spa or massage , her poor back working in small places. Good progress guys.

The bilge is looking 👌, I can only imagine how wonderful the rest of Seabird will be after you 2 work your magic on her.. people with money can buy nice things, the rest of us have to take what others have overlooked and put our hard work into it making it nicer than the one that's bought with money.. Seabird has improved greatly and so has the quality of content coming from Stewart and Marina... you 2 automatically get a 👍 as soon as I click on the video..

I enjoy watching your rebuild. I have been using an in line holding tank installation for about 30 years with good luck. Suggest locating the bottom of tank above your boat's waterline and plumb discharge line below bottom of tank so that it will empty completely. I use a pvc valve ahead of the thru hull valve so that you can do maintenance on the thru hull valve without having to clean the tank.

Yous look tanned and happy.

Bilge is looking great! Your Plywood is supposed to arrive Tuesday!

Its summer maybe try a lite jacket instead of all those coats...🤣😁 cheers keep up the hard work.

AH! At last moment some positive news on the brink of weekend, after a overall dreary and depressing day. You guys have come a long way already. Great job! 👍 Pity indeed, covering it up now it looks so good after so much work. 🤷

I LOVE you guys! You are one of my favorite boat renovation/building/sailing channels. I watch Sailing Seabird, Life On The Hulls, Sailing Liberty, Sailing Melody, Sailing Squalo,, Sailing Magic Carpet, Sailing SV Cuba, Sailing Dauntless, Lahakai Sailing, Alluring Arctic Sailing, Sailing NV, Wind Hippie Sailing, Sailing SV Delos, The Duracell Project, MJ Sailing In no particular order.

More solid progress. ❤

💚💚💚

One huge step forward. No the real refining from the cabin starts. The preparation is always the hardest. Good to see all the progress. 🎉

The bildg looks good

Que cambio está dando eh!!!

Floor its called a floor! The plywood you step on is called the sole! Driving me nuts here! If I had hair I would pull it out! 😂

The bilde looks much better. Nearly there. And for us to remember: Longer we work the sooner it’s over.😊

She’s looking better every show!keep up the good work. You should be proud of yourselves.

Your video title says it all. We can all, “see the light”👍Crack on you guys!

👍

Stu Marina looks like she pretty handy with that hammer. You keep in line or smack. Lol

I think you're making a good decision in eliminating the toilet in the head near your bedroom.. you don't want to be sleeping with those smells.. leave it a shower and wet room.. leave the toilet in the head in the front of the boat and not have a shower there.. less maintenance and simple is always better

The Battle of the Bilge meets the Incredible Bulkhead.

You can always drop a dry or camping flush loo into the shower room if you have the need later. Rigid ABS pipe with chemicaly welded joints never lets any stink out.. or leaks.. if youve got a waybto fit it... You can bend it to a curve.

❤ Wow what an awesome team! I'm refitting my first and it's so much slower alone... Inspiring to watch others transforming old to new 🎉 👍👍👍

Amazingly well done! You guys are an incredible couple and inspiration for listening to motivation and discipline!

Still hard at it! Looking good.

Really enjoying seeing you guys, We look forward to seeing you every week. ❤xx

Great work completed so far, the boat looks great and you shouldn't be so hard on yourselves. I totally agree that the work is best not rushed and deadlines only lead to pressure, you will feel much better knowing that you hadn't rushed the final stages of the fiberglass and paint. We are building a narrowboat for the UK canals and we have deliberately not set any deadlines as we wish to enjoy the build as much as possible. Keep up the great work.

Lykke til, det blir sikkert fint, finere og finest!

work, you to work much, remember to relax also. the boat is looking very nice and i am happy for you both.

Friend has 2 waste tank as you suggest. One I back of hulls in catamaran but remember tank must be above the waterline!( so it empties). Some of the French catamarans have tall ones behinds cupboards and that can drain outside when required ! A simple system .

An enjoyable episode she going to look great when you finish her

Well done both of you, as usual you keep plodding on making super content 😊
