Ep. 23 Peplink come on board - Reliable mobile internet at the lowest cost no matter our location 

Good on you Peplink for sponsoring the boat build. Our prayers have been answered, Lisa being on the boat. You beauty!!!!

lISA ???? OMG, WHAT A GREAT SUPRISE :) will be so great to see her again , Lisa Rocks :)

Lisa is definitely an incentive to follow your vlog.

Awesome progress! Will be great to see Lisa again!

It’s amazing you are managing this by yourself boot-strapping from one let down to the next yet winning over all!

It's going to be incredible to see you finally back on the water with this beaut.

Lisa's Coming back, this is great news, I think it's safe to say we all love Lisa.❤

Any sponsor gets the benefit that your technical explanations are truly detailed and really helpful from the viewpoint of the consumer.

Peplink's ability to keep you online in the most economical way is brilliant.

Great to see Lisa again. Glad to hear she's coming aboard! Woot Woot Peplink! 🤗💞

YeeeHaaa... LISA !!!!!ALL will be well in the world again. 🎉😊

Lisa coming back is bloody good news Peter.

Yes Plukky! The return, hopefully, of Lisa. 😊

all my likes on all your videos must have paid for most of it

This is Wonderful News!!! ✝️🙏❤️🇺🇸🇦🇺🇧🇻👣🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍😊

Oh Lisa! I think I'll go back and rewatch some older videos. Can't not mention GiGi, oh how beautiful!

Lisa’s prioritization pineapple, sailing, was Plucky in there? Crew❤

Excited that Lisa is coming back. Such a perfect fit. Sweet, well-spoken, but gutsy when she needs to be. Great compliment as crew for the new catamaran.

As an avid follower of your channel, a boat owner ( Adams 45) and a Boilermaker by trade…the quality of their fabrication defines their professionalism. And thank God they are sensible enough to leave the guards on their 4” grinders!

YUP GREAT CATTITUDE THE CLIPS AT THE END SURE MADE ME SMILE +++ LISA IS A FINE FRIEND INDEED +++ PEACE

Peplink sounds really cool - more cruisers should hear about this!!! Thanks ! :)

Made my week to hear Lisa is going to be back on the boat.

It's interesting that, of all the crew you've had over the years, Lisa is the only one that people are still talking about. I love your videos Plukky. I really want to see you back on the water. It would be nice if Lisa was there with you too.

Plukky you have just made my day hearing of Lisa's return I hope she is well and still likes pineapples

Great stuff the boat's looking good its gonna be awesome

Brighter days ahead. Great surprise with Lisa. Keep it up Capt.

Mr Richard Duerk seams the right person at the right time older but trouble shoot and able to find out things that may go wrong plus fully qualified not sure about the Bikini idea though. Now need young men and women not afraid to learn and be able to now what to do and when including any emergency like another boat in real trouble knowing what to do to help in any emergency. No going overboard or Plucky will glue feet to the boat maybe?

I had not heard pf Peplink .. it sounds awesome.

Peter, do some studies on, "Alum." Weld quality", I've noticed some "Flaws", "Anomalies", just looking at your videos, No.1) "Fillet-welds" cold-lap, not "tied-in" good. No.2) Putting a "Flat-weld" in a hull seam, then grinding most of it off? Does that weld have "Full Penetration" from both sides? 🤔

How wonderful, Lisa will be joining you once again. That is the best outcome of your build so far! PS There is no Peplink in OZ. Hangin there Epic project with on epic adventure unfolding. I hope you can get pineapples in Vietnam? SV Skoiern IV

Glad to hear Lisa will be back, but you had better have ample supplies of pineapples Plucky! And good on Peplink for being a sponsor.

Yay…Lisa! The only person you should have christen the new boat!

I am fascinated, and as an amateur garage welder, I may pick up some skills here. Cheers.

So glad your getting some Help from the best Like Peplink it seams to be the best of the best for extreme conditions what a great choice. I wish I could help but at this time have to look after my self.

🎉🎉🎉 I've been in hospital for 2 months. Great progress 👏 👍

I have one vital ability that you do absolutely need and that is as ballast. 185 pounds of ballast that can move around on command to suit the need at a moments notice. Requirements in food and beverage and a comfortable bunk along with entertainment and one mermaid.

I've been watching your channel from the beginning. I have a sailing channel inspired partly by you. After 6 years and 120 videos, only now am I seeing success. 14k views in one day. Mate just tell me what I can do!? As far as I'm concerned Plucky is a legend in the sailing community.. what can I do to help?

I can't wait to see you and Lisa Cave diving together., Lisa's aim was true!

P-man! Been waiting to hear Lisa coming back.🎉❤🎉 Skipper needs a first mate. Time, Put a ring on her finger and Sail into the sunset.🎉🎉🎉🎉

Lisa is the saving of this video! Top stuff!

Way to go plucky keep up the good work ❤❤

How weird i was just waiting for the end of the video to ask what Lisa was up to! 😂

Be good to see Lisa Back. She is my favorite.

So, are we counting the whole "fossil fuel free" part after the manufacturing of all the parts, materials, and boat? I see quite a large carbon foot print on those stands. Also, love the channel. I even watch all the ads for you (no skipping).

Looking Good PlukStar....

Oh that's really cool to hear about Lisa!

Dammit, Plukky! I did it again..watched that first weld, with no goggles.. Well..another damn cold beer again. Congrats on Peplink, I hafta say! Hope it provides the service you dearly need out there. Cheers, again, from Canada..🇨🇦😃

LISAAAAAAAAA!!! About time mate!

Plucky, gives me such satisfaction to see you achieving your dream! I felt horrible since you lost Long Reef now, years later, you will soon have an even better cat! Such a great situation where you are able to be on the floor every day during construction. Something that would never be allowed in the U.S.! And your great supporters, 12% taking the extra second to click the like button. Other channels are lucky to get 3%. Everything's coming together!!!

A lot of "tack weld" going on there ... How much full penetration and full seem welding is going on between the hull plating and stringers/ribs? AWSOME CHANNEL!!! FOLLOWED FROM THE BEGINNING!!!~ FAIR WINDS

More of Lisa, 😁😁😁❤️

Goodonya Plukky 🤙🤙⚡️⚡️🇦🇺keep the good work going !! I’m just helping with the algorithms 😁🌺🐝🐉🍄🐸🇦🇺🤙

Lisa Lisa Lisa... 😎🍍🍍

You still need a haricut Your comment that Canadiens have afunny accent cracked me up!

Everyone loves LISA… don’t muck it up PLUCKIE

Yay Plucky, We did wonder. Actually were somewhat worried. Looks like you have it covered. There are many out there with all the romantic crap about the life. It is good that you keep it real. They (won't mention the name) is copying your idea. Thats what happens when your a leader. Excellent

Lisa... 🎉

A work of Art ❤

Richard is very impressive, he's done a lot and has a lot of experience. If I were to do it, I'm very green in many areas. I'm a technologist in that I know radio and electronics. So, modern AIS and VHF cabling, and networking may be somewhat easy for me. I am a ham radio operator, vhf uhf hf and digital. I managed a satellite yard at a TV station. I've studied the hell out of modern sailing and own PV/LIPO systems. I make batteries, and like those best because I then know what is in them and can replace necessary components/ test the batteries and systems. But, I've only been on the water for short trips in Humboldt Bay and in the Pacific near there. I've tried to absorb as much about rigging/autopilots/shaft and proppellers/ steering / hull issues and zincs/ electric issues with motors / . From what I know of the Cell/Battery/Lipo issues world wide I'd think it would be best to completely secure all that equipment direct from the factories (China) and not try to export them . The times of shipping and those issues are terrible right now. They all come from asia but must be sourced directly (communication directly with factories) or there will be hang ups. Its a quickly changing market worldwide with , apparently, the sources in China.

_Iridium_ predates Starlink by DECADES!

This is great, Plukky. It is real exciting seein the skin.going on the hulls. Now its possible to see the boat better,. Even half done I can imaging the boat's personality starting to form as well. Pease and love, Pal💙🤘 Pineapple storages? √

The knowledge channel strikes again, first there was Star Link, now there is smart link! Way to go Peplink, woohoo. :o)

Ahoy Plukky!🏴‍☠🔱Have you ever been flashed Mate ? I don't mean a nice set of ta ta's but the welding kind?😜

Fantastic crew.

Looking forward to learning more about Peplink, good concept. Your hard work is paying off!

Peplink is great. I've been using their routers for many years. Wifi WAN is the shit for marinas.

Will be great to see you and Lisa together and causing trouble. Can't wait!

Everything is moving along rather nicely ! Way to go Peter life is good !

just a comment for the algorithm

Yessssss LISA!!!!!!!

Those wedges and dogs work together for straightening walls and are temporary tacked on then hammered off.. His dog template has all angles up, down, in, out.. nicely done worker man..

Your catamaran is not important anymore😉I want to see Lisa…. 😂 Grtz. from the Netherlands

Will be good seeing Lisa again she was bloody good value, keeping you on your toes lol. Great to see the build advancing. Thank you for the content. Good tea & coffee too 😁

Great sponsor Peter! let's hope many others will follow the coming months. Must agree that i was a bit nervous to see my video next but will show patience! 😂

24 metres (78 ft).... Wow, that's a biggen.

It is coming along nicely. I can only imagine if you had tried to put it together yourself. They amount of work they have gotten done is amazing.

Yes some of the previous girl crews seem to be awesome. Especially, since they put up with the Pluckster.

Yeah it's getting done!! Lisa is coming back Awesome!

Great episode Peter. Like the idea of telling us about the sponsors coming on board - well done to peplink.

Like, subscribe, comment you silly wabbits!

I like that peeling is on board. Very interesting crew so far

Loved the Phuc Long tea and coffee 🤣😂🤣👍🙂 Good Day mate

I liked now I am commenting again. Top stuff.

Lisa!!! ❤❤❤👍👍👍 Going great plucky. 👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪

Peplink for the pee-pole, nothing but quality!

I have no idea what to write so 😛

It is all coming together. An amazing effort!

Yeah, Lisa is still the main reason I watch your channel 🥰. Well, you're kind of funny too Peter.. but. Yeah.😉

Besides you and SV Delos, there's the couple in Spain building an Aluminum boat now.

I wouldn't have thought a dick would be a good choice for the crew but that one might be useful. And I can't wait to see Lisa again. Top stuff! It's amazing how fast the boat is coming along! I'm stoked for you Plukky. Buena suerte y cuídate mucho.

Great stuff Yeahhhh Lisa is backkkk Richard is a great crew to have on the bost toooooooo

Bikinis are good. Young smiling faces could be argued to be even better but you’re going to need skilled and ambitious crew. That is what I wish for you Plukky, young, skilled and ambitious bikinis.

Great news about Lisa coming back. I remember the episode when you said you were like an old married couple and she chipped in "But no sex" Ha Ha. Can't understand why Peter. I said I wished my Wife still looked at me the way she was looking at you that afternoon. Get the pineapples in and don't spill any beer this time.

Damn theres a face ive missed #lisa ........

lol imagen paying fore that where you can buy steal expidtion ship fore 300k lmao

Bloody awesome, "Go you good thing"

Peter, did you know star-link is half the cost if you buy it in the golf of mexico and get it shipped there, I bet you know somebody that could help you with that... I did not wanna say anything, Peplink will give you service (cell service) if you buy the equipment at an extreme markup? What? I have been doing networking and computer stuff since 1985, the more equipment you add to a system the more problems, simple... enough said..

Your really just an advertising channel, now beholden to people who want to sell there stuff, youve come a long way from being an independent cruiser

There's a loomin Umm in there somewhere...

what happened to all the nice lokking sand?
