@archstanton9206 2 года назад

I've assisted a couple of friends in building some small carbon fiber pieces a few years back...off road racing stuff...the infusion process is something to behold, and the finished product is about the best humans can produce. The carbon pieces were incredible.

@gbsailing9436 2 года назад

Forgive me if I’m wrong, but I was always under the impression that Carbon need to be “cooked” to has full strength? This is why F1 and large boat building company’s like Riva, Bennetti, and Azimuth have built their own huge ovens to ‘cure’ their Carbon elements once the infusion process has been completed. Are they doing this in this process?

The British people here will know about pork scratchings, a salty snack sold mainly in pubs, of deep fried pig skin. The Antipodeans in Oz and NZ may have them, too. You can buy a 'specialist' variety of pig nipples, though I've only seen them a couple of times in many decades. Lucy is fantastic fun

The infusion time lapse was very cool and made it clearer how that process works. Now, onto the night life meal...well, your much braver than I would be trying out those dishes. I can handle some unique dishes, but it appears that the two most unique ones weren't a favorite, but at least you can say you tried them. Looking forward to the next video on the build process. Will you two be staying in Vietnam until your boat hits the water and you take possession for good?

Boat construction continues to improve, there are a number of builders infusing carbon fiber with epoxy, while top of the chain construction techniques will use carbon prepreg for the ultimate build. As more high end builders come online, prices come down, or at least they should!!!

@LaughterOnWater 2 года назад

We laughed when we saw the original thumbnail and title for the video - so in keeping with the kind of stuff the EweTewb algorithm loves. Curious if this was an a/b test, or if it was just a snarky jab at the algorithm. That said, the current title and thumbnail are certainly more aligned with your content. This was a fun exposé on both vinyl ester infusion and Vietnamese foods. At 1:30, it's not exactly clear if the mdf is used only as a template or if it becomes part of the boat. If, as I suspect, the mdf is not part of the boat, do they need to make a new mdf template for every boat, or will they reuse the mdf template for another boat with the same layout? Orchestrating the vacuum and ester resin flow must require a lot of focus on Danny's part. At 7:47 - this time lapse was a _phenomenal_ explainer. Not a fan of gristly food textures either. As always, stay safe out there!

@sailingrubyrose 2 года назад

Hahah thanks mate. We did the original thumbnail to test the waters but it didn’t seem to be resonating with our audience who are clearly here for the boat building stuff, not the weird and wonderful street food! Thanks for noticing.

@william6526 2 года назад

I've found that Orientals can't waste anything and that is why they have dishes for things we would throw away. I draw the line on the variety of insects they consume on a regular basis. If it crawls ,flies ,swims or walks they have a dish they make. We as westerners have plenty of protein available in the choice parts of the animals that are raised in our countries. But when you have millions of people in rather poor countries compared to the western countries they must eat any protein that's available for the average person. So you end up with things like chicken parts and pig tips on the menu.

@enderdragoon 2 года назад

I had dreams of building my own boat in a garage, started researching all the boat building methods with fiberglass and realized I would never be able to build something as exceptional as vacuum infusion in my garage. The talent and experience it requires to pull it off isnt something I want to invest a decade of my life to sort out how to get it just perfect for my one boat, so I had to accept that the best boat for me will be one where at a minimum the hull is infused by professionals and SeaWind are top notch. The prospect of getting the infusion process wrong, wasting thousands of dollars of resin and potentially destroying a mold isnt the dice Im ready to roll in boat building. I will be buying a SeaWind when able in a few years.

@pmnfernando 2 года назад

build a kit then. its basically a big jigsaw and you would get a higher level of customization (than production boats) depending on manufacturer. you can also go the WEST way (Wood-Epoxy Saturation Technique) and get phenomenal hull by joining methods such as strip-plank and cold-molded together.

@gbsailing9436 2 года назад

EPIC episode. I also could have done with out the Pig Tit, but I thank you for considering us hungry souls here at home in Australia (and elsewhere). Great to how the infusion works, but don’t they end up with a rough surface where all the bagging is crimping upwards where it comes together? There must be hundreds s of tiny little flanges that stick up when they remove the bagging, surely? What stops this from happening? Or can they just kick them flat/off? Thanks for more of the night life this episode. ✅

@wjhann4836 2 года назад

First - that are always the non visible sides of the structure Second - yes they will be there, but I assume not so much - so some sanding an it will be OK. When I remember crawling into the "non visible" areas of European production boats - it itches also by the memories. For me hand layed wouldn't be better.

@capnfrankly 2 года назад

As the boat is being built in a hot climate as you often say /demonstrate. And as the boats accurate components are structurally supported by steel during their construction. Would there be hull shrinkage or alteration when you sail in colder waters ? Also do you have to adjust your rigging to allow for thermal differences in your sailing location ? Probably a silly question. 🤪👀

@sailingrubyrose 2 года назад

It’s a tonal language. So if you use the same inflection you use to speak European language words have different meanings. As I’m learning the whole process is made easier if you use a neutral “telephone” tone.

@campingboy9213 2 года назад

Very interesting. I am guessing that all the tubes and plastic is used once. What does Seawind do to reduce or recycle all the plastic and fiberglass off cuts? I have made a note to be the camera person when pig tit is on the menu. Take care.

@nickthequick 2 года назад

I am still a bit baffled about the whole "home garage" look of the infusion process. Despite its complexity it looks so primitive in a way. I found Ho Chi Min to be the most dynamic and positive vibe city of all I visited in SEA, better than Bangkok.

@michaelduncan2759 2 года назад

Okay, nerd moment. Instead of manually controlled valves, why not use different size orifices? Or, is the resin to thick? However, even that being said, when I worked for BOC Gases, I designed a system of positive displacement pumps driven via frequency inverters to control the amount of required flow and pressure to fill cylinders without the need for start and stop operations in regards to weight of the separate components.

@christopherhutchings9621 2 года назад

@imusuallycorrect 2 года назад

No, you may be thinking of prepreg. This infusion process generally doesn't need to be cooked. They might do a post cure, with is to raise the temperature so the resin can reach it's best properties.

@danmallery9142 2 года назад

Wow, your ability to speak Vietnamese so fluently is amazing! Most Asian languages seem to be the most difficult to learn. That must be incredibly helpful while living there and spending so much time with the workers at the factory. The infusion process is simply light years better than traditional layup but it seems so wasteful with all that Pex pipe and valves that I assume are one use? I imagine trying to clean them and re-use would take so much solvent that it would be even less green. I guess it is partially offset by using probably several gallons less resin.

@gbsailing9436 2 года назад

Yes surely it must be a one use only process. Man the wastage must be huge. Can it be recycled?

@btrotta 2 года назад

The tubes can't be reused because some resin will cure in them. But the process is much more efficient than traditional hand lay up. Far less resin gets used, and far less gets wasted. So, not only do you end up with a lighter, stronger boat, it also costs less because of the time and material savings.

@danmallery9142 2 года назад

@@btrotta Pretty much what I figured. Plus, if it is PEX pipe, even if you could flush it (which would be its own wasteful freak show itself) it is not recyclable either.

@gbsailing9436 2 года назад

@@btrotta Yes but think of ALL the plastic that has to be literally thrown away. If they had valves right down at the skin level which could be shut off once the pour is done they could disconnect tubes and push the ends into a barrel and then push a cleaning agent through the hoses and reuse them. Similar to modern concrete pouring techniques where the column going up through a building being built is shot blasted with a sponge to remove any concrete out of the pump tubbing and then it can be reused the next day. If I own the company I’d like to explore the re-use of the tubbing idea. Most likely it’s too much effort and not cost effective, but thinking of all that plastic going into the ground makes me cringe.

@btrotta 2 года назад

@@gbsailing9436 Agreed, it does seem wasteful, but the cure time on the resin is so fast there really isn't a way to do it. By the time they're getting to the end of the infusion the resin is already setting up. Unfortunately, like a lot of industrial processes, what makes it desirable from both a consumer and manufacturing perspective makes it an environmental nightmare.

@leesydneyharry7958 2 года назад

Did you know On any given day in the parks of Vietnam’s biggest cities-and even smaller cities-you’ll find groups of people doing the Falun Gong exercises. But even just a few years ago, Falun Gong was relatively unknown in Vietnam. Falun Gong (also known as Falun Dafa) is a practice of mind and body based on the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance. It was the most popular qigong practice in China in the 1990s, with an estimated 70-100 million people practicing. The Chinese Communist Party viewed its popularity as a threat, and in 1999 the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started persecuting the practice. Perhaps Falun Dafa’s slow start in Vietnam was due to political pressure from the CCP, as it is not officially allowed by Vietnamese authorities; nevertheless, in recent years it has become wildly popular, with some saying Vietnam has the third largest group of Falun Dafa practitioners - behind China and Taiwan. One volunteer has seen the dramatic rise in Falun Gong’s popularity firsthand. “Based on my knowledge, in 2000, Vietnam only had two practitioners: one in Hanoi and one in Ho Chi Minh City. In 2012, there were 4,000-5,000 practitioners. In 2016, there were around 10,000 practitioners,” he said. For security reasons, he wanted to remain anonymous. More recent estimates put the number at 30- to 50,000 practitioners, but it is impossible to verify. However FalunDafa is good In 2003, the first translation of Falun Gong’s main book, “Zhuan Falun,” was published in Vietnamese. A new edition was released in 2017 amidst the surge in popularity. Falun Dafa’s rapid spread in China in the 1990s was almost entirely through word of mouth, but there’s one major difference now in Vietnam: the internet. Like many, that’s how Tri Nguyen first heard about Falun Dafa. He started practicing in May 2016. “Dafa changed the way I feel about life. I understood more about what is right, what is wrong; then I modified my actions and attitudes about everything. My health has been perfect since I began practicing.”

Building a boat is not what it used to be. A screw here some epoxy glue there, sand to fit then do it again on another part of the boat. Now, No clue how to do anything, but can see the quality of the entire structures.
