Part 2 of our DIY soft top to hard top bimini conversion. In this video we add the fiddles, hatch and sand and finish the hardtop. We definitely underestimated the level of difficulty adding the fiddles would be. I guess theres a reason you don't see many boats with them! That said, so far, they work really well. Join us as we finish off this 3 month long project!

What a lovely daughter you have. My 29 year old son will not clean up his mess. Great video .

@billylallen2662 2 года назад

Saw you guys on SV Basik and did not know you were friends. I was thinking of them while you build your hardtop.

@dougmarder 2 года назад

Through the magic of RU-vid I got to see you today in CA with Linh and Teal and then watch you in SC and NJ. I hope we get to find out more about your sail north, as well as your trip out west. Great job on the hard top!

Hey Ryan and Jessica! I’m next to you in Biscayne Bay here in Miami. We are on our way to see Gary Fritz who you bought your boat through. I’ll try and stop by this morning if you are still here.

Very nicely done for an on the boat job!

@svZia-Switch51 Год назад

Nice project, I enjoyed your documentation of it. I'm curious about one choice however and that's the hatch. Why didn't you simply go with a standard hatch from Lewmar or similar? Seems like that would have provided a nice site window to see the mainsail and a clean installation look? Thanks.

Looks great!

@ricbailey170 2 года назад

Great to see some of your handy work posted again. Outstanding results!🥳😎

Mucho Hombre for taking on a huge project and doing so well.

@rickcreel3657 2 года назад

Good job, and catching rain water is very good, because a water maker might break down. I saw GBU make a top like this, and they used pvc foamboard, and glassed the top side only. I didn't know that pvc foam board existed until then. I told my brother so he used it to repair his dash in his truck. He found out that pvc cement just melts the foam. He tried gorilla glue, so you were right.

when's the next one coming? Looking forward to it!

Great job Ryan!!!!!!! Any more pictures of the new baby and Jessica?

@jandradventures 2 года назад

Coming soon!

@davidwood4427 2 года назад

Great video, thankyou for sharing. I would have liked to have seen how you did the hatch slide.

@Hardtimes57 2 года назад

Nice job, but I kept waiting to see you polish the frame while you had the hardtop off. Would have made polishing it a lot easier. Still turned out good.

@mandmmilling3716 2 года назад

Just make a temp rain collection system. Couple shower drains, some 1 hose, a single 5 micron filter, all dumping into s 5 gallon bucket. Would work until you install a perminate system.

@jandradventures 2 года назад

We did sort a do a trial run of something similar! It worked well enough as a prototype but its not something I'd wanna do regularly.

@JustMe-pp1mp 2 года назад

OMG Ryan - Just caught your picture on todays Basik posting. I've never noticed the height difference in your videos, who's responsible for that 1 1/2 ft spread? Trust you and the l'il uns are having fun. :-)

@jandradventures 2 года назад

Everyone is good! We split the difference height wise. Jessica is maybe a little shorter than average and I run on the taller side of things at 6'4".

@TheEarthwinders 2 года назад

Awesome project! Your courage in diving into a project of this scale is inspiring. Learning a lot about the possibilities of working with fiberglass through your channel and finding it very interesting even though the only fiberglass thing I own is a corvette. lol.

@LODOG419 2 года назад

Glad to see y'all back.

@johnlowery7684 2 года назад

Great job on the Bimini. Your children are growing up fast. I saw your daughter was helping you paint. 😄😄

Great job dude. Way to power through a scary big project. And I learned from your mistakes, which works out very well for me as I will now NOT make your mistakes... :)

Another nice job, Ryan and crew. ✨ 💯 ✨ ✌️

@chucknorrisjr1000 2 года назад

I am very curious to see if the fiberglass will bond to that gelcoat where u added the rain shield most gelcoat has wax in it so i feel like it could have a weak bond. To get a proper bond new glass needs to be laid over old glass that has been properly prepared threw sanding and dewaxing. Be sure to keep an eye on that it may start to delaminate over time

@niwachien 2 года назад

Great work. More videos please.

@alphasxsignal 2 года назад

Wonder if the frame was made to hold this new weight of the fiberglass then just canvas.

@Kevin15301 2 года назад

I am glad to see you guys are posting more. Great project and well executed. Isn't water just going to lay on the bimini? The fiddle is going to stop water from running off?

@jandradventures 2 года назад

It would, and we didn't explicit show it, but there are two drain holes on either side. So all the rainwater gets redirected there.

@brianswanland5466 2 года назад

Looks great! Just curious why you didn't use your mold with fiberglass as you did the hatch. Wouldn't have been easier,? Lighter,?

@jandradventures 2 года назад

We did consider it. The biggest downside to wood though is it can rot where the coremat material cant. So if any water works it way into any of the through bolts in the bimini the wood can rot and make a weak spot.

@davekimbler2308 Год назад

Are you intending to enclose it at a later date ?

@MarkLawrenceKiefer 2 года назад

How are the stainless pieces holding up so far?

@tucsonev2062 2 года назад

Nice build. Did you put an isolation layer between the existing alum structure and the new SS brackets?

@FtLMale1 2 года назад

Good point, still can be easily added.

@traveller9625 2 года назад

That really came out great! Where about in NJ did you stay?

@jandradventures 2 года назад

Toms River area, via the Manasquan Inlet

@traveller9625 2 года назад

@@jandradventures Interesting, we live in Waretown just down the bay. Again great job on the hard top, not a simple task

@PyeGuySailing 2 года назад

Do you remember how much resin you used approximately? I'm going to do a similar job and would like a starting point on how much resin I need. Best guess is good enough
