Any time engine mounts are changed or adjusted you should check the transmission output shaft and propeller shaft coupling for alignment. Nice work tho
agreed, although i wouldn't be surprised if the engine alignment is still at factory settings. these cruisers don't get a lot of hours, and they don't have a lot of power anywho.
As a boatbuilder I strongly advise a alignment even if there is inly a half millimeter hight difference it will wear both of the bearing sleeves down and that will get expensive. Are you still in Germany, let me know I can help you
The old mounts may be ugly, and may have sagged a bit, which forces an alignment, but they are still functional and will not come apart or transmit much extra vibration. All they need is some rubber protectant and that alignment, since they are guarded all around by metal and will not come apart. Most rubber protectants also prevent rust.
Hi, to remove your fourth engine mount you can remove the four studs on the mount by loosening one nut a quarter of a turn then remove another nut screw that on to loosend stud and lock the two nuts together with two spanners,then put a spanner on the back nut and the stud will come out.Keep up the good work,your you tube channel is very good.
Your efforts to restore this vessel is amazing the next summer I'm looking forward to you puling it out and restore the hull. It's starting to look like a true yaught so to speak and your craftsmanship is amazing too. Thanks for sharing.
Hey, it's wonderful to see your progress on this. Congratulations on this milestone! I may not ever realize my own desire of building/restoring a boat however, following you along this journey helps satisfy that desire even if only as little bit. Thank you. Wishing you continued success on your journey!
Having changed a lot of rubber worn and perished suspension bushes and mounts ... I would have looked for some Polyurethane replacements. They last and perform better especially if theres heat fuel and oil contamination issues. Save the details and the best of the old ones as a pattern. Do not get WD 40 on your rubber ...if you do wash it off straight away. Or they will start cracking in months.🤦🏻♂️ I made that mistake ...
Great vid, tip for getting studs out that won’t come out with the nuts, put the nut back on then add a locking nut, I.e. the same nut on top of the original nut, lock them off against each other, then using a spanner, hit the inner nut to free up the stud. 👍
Now I understand why I found your platform boat to sell at ebay Kleineinzeigen since last Sunday! Good luck for selling soon! Though I believe it is a pity to you. It surely was a great time behind you at this beautyful place, easy to get it from your stories. I count 2 and 2 together with the recent news about the trouble from the local city authorities with the water residents on lake Rummelsburg, that they all have to leave, alas. So sorry for that! But as you told, don't look back but forward! Will you give us also the story what will happen with your other two motorboats? I suppose you will sell them, too, due lack of place to stay. You was lucky to find the new place for your 1st boat, because in those uneasy corona-times it is crucial here in Germany! Too many boaters around. Congrats! Me myself will also face this question when my boat is ready from the refit and I want into water again. Pressing thumbs...✊✊ Well, new times, new luck! Seeing forward your next videos.
Thankyou for a fabulous journey from day 1 to now I've have really enjoyed every episode, your very talented and thorough with all your projects, I've also learnt a lot from you. Can't wait to see her after the new paint, I will miss the floating dock it was great. Thanks again🇦🇺💜😁
Another nice update and progress, those motorcycle rubbers have indeed seen better times, luckily that is now arranged. I couldn't see well in your video recording how the connection between motor and propeller shaft is composed, it is only advisable to check the alignment between motor and propeller shaft after replacing the motor rubbers. Having said that I am looking forward to the next movie and update cheers .
So iconic, the bridge with the two towers! My wife and I stayed in the hotel near it. Great view. She ran the Berlin marathon twice, so we saw a lot of the city. Thanks for the images!
In order to remove the rust from the barge I recommend an electric magnet on a bracket to stay off the hull. This will also get the fine particles making the air quality better.
It’s always, or at least 4-5 times for now, that I come home after a night out drunk and high, go to bed wanting something to watch and chill, and you dropped a video :)
Thanks for the upload bro it's nice to see all your hard work being paid off I imagine you're very pleased with the outcome. Looking forward to finding out more about your next project. Love from the UK and the Philippines.
Sorry to say, you have made a complete hash of that job. You should only have 2 nuts on each mount exactly as you had originally. That will give you the adjustment required to align the engine which you did not do but should be done when changing mounts. Usually the top nut is nyloc to alleviate the need for thread lock.
Nice job m8, some of the Arcitecture was amazing. Looking forward to your next vlog, bettin however, you'll head back to the original spot, when you finish here. Thanks, you and yours stgay safe and well Eh!
I see that crane in the background of your new dock space. I am hoping you will be fixing the paint on the sides above the waterline for such a beautiful boat it’s got to have perfect paint.
Hey i would definitely put a jamb nut on that mount, if you don’t have any room for one you can drill a hole through the nut and rod and use a cotter pin to secure that nut.
permission to come aboard captain, Thats easy to take out 4th motor mount put back 2 nuts back on one bolt tighten bolt together then put wrench on the back nut to remove it, luck. the last old mount will case premature wear on the new ones, and if I come visit, may I have permission to come aboard. for a cruise around the country?
Its possible the gearbox has too much oil. Check with warm engine and running. Oil level when engine running should be between the high and low on dipstick.
Hello, I,m English. I Didn't Know Berlin had a serious water way Network. Do You Have to Pay some type of River Tax Licence ? If Yes, How Much & How is it Calculated Please?
Guten Abend mein deutscher Freund, Ich war schon regelmäßig in Berlin, wusste aber nicht, dass es in und um Berlin so schöne Wasserwege gibt. War auch überrascht, wie detailgetreu es dir gelungen ist, die Motoraufhängung auszutauschen. Schade, dass die vierte Motoraufhängung nicht mitmachen wollte, denn ich denke, wenn das so wäre, würde der Motor noch leiser laufen. Ein weiterer Punkt der Aufmerksamkeit ist, das Motoröl frei von Lecks zu halten. Ich denke, um beides gut in den Griff zu bekommen, das nur geht indem du den Motor komplett abklemmt, damit du alles gut erreichen kann. Auch im Namen meiner Frau WIlleke wünsche ich dit viel Erfolg bei der Restaurierung des Bootes und schicken wie ❤️. Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Willeke und Dick de Graaff
Hallo, Berlin ist eine fantastische Wasserregion. Vielleicht gefällt euch ja, was diese beiden netten Menschen veröffentlichen: ru-vid.com Alles Gute, Jens
First off, why did you leave? second, will you be returning to your patform and if not, did you just leave it there for others to take or did you sell it?
Man, you are killing us with the suspense! I thought at the end of the trip you were going to say you would sell your first boat, or something like that. Best wishes regardless of what the big new plan is and kind regards - always enjoy your videos a lot!
Nur eine Anmerkung: Die Ziegelsteine die die Sonnepanele beschweren könnten bereits genug Abschattung erzeugen um die das ganze Panel tot wirkungslos zu machen. Ansonsten: Ich überleg ja immer den UBI zu machen, aber wenn ich den Gehalt in Infos so sehe:" In die Kammer fahren wenn Licht grün" - hab ich etwas Zweifel wegen der Sinnhaftigkeit.
