Spot on financial advice, good for those considering a boat purchase. When people use the kind of clear-eyed budgeting you use for required future expenses lots of surprises are avoided. This kind of literacy should def be taught in school, thanks!

@scottoconnor3484 2 года назад

Please keep your subscribers up to date as the vinyl stripe ages. I am very curious about colorfastness, resistance to corrosion, ability to clean it, resistance to scratches, etc, etc.

@pavanatanaya 2 года назад

I love the new stripe. If there is one thing the PNW doesnt have enough of, it is Dark Gray

@majoroldladyakamom6948 2 года назад

Right? 🤣👍😋 I have lived here in The Great NorthWET since April 1960. I was six weeks old, so I can say that... lol. Especially these past few days. Woke up this morning, and there's a tiny hint of Fall in the air at 6 a.m. today. Yum.

Awesome breakdown! The boat looks fabulous. How much was it to do the interior cushions?

@hughmyers2072 2 года назад

Budget 10% of the replacement value of your boat. An older boat will be less expensive to purchase, but there will be more large expenses, engines & generators may need to be replaced, electronics updated & on and on. An older boat that is a 'good deal' may be the most expensive one.

@briankillian5248 9 месяцев назад

Environmental charges ARE TOTAL BULLSHIT. It's like a "doc fee" at an auto dealership.

@glennlepien473 2 года назад

Thanks for a great video Capt.Elizabeth. You always do a quality presentation, best on the Tube for boat owners, IMHO. I was glad you went with the "Prop Speed" coating, I'm curious to see how long it will last and if you need to reapply it the next time you haul out. Thank you for the breakdown of the costs too .. that could be a nightmare for some folks if they are not sure of what they are getting into. These last three videos of the haul out have been so helpful .. again fantastic work. Please give Martha and Mr.Sully a scratch behind the ear for me, they are so cute! .. Hope to see you if you come down the coast ... Take care and Fair Winds.

@edwardmassengale7988 2 года назад

Great information on cost, not many people will share that information. Love your videos, thank you!

@peterdodge6563 2 года назад

Wonderful presentation - frankly I was surprised at the very reasonable fees from the marina. You omitted the costs of the interior work though which was of interest to me. Love the gray stripes. Glad all went well and you are back off the hard.

@leslieq958 2 года назад

I always appreciate the "cost of everything" episodes. Not (yet) being a boat owner, I have no idea about these costs. Your channel lets me better understand what I would be getting myself into. Thanks.

@billdillard885 2 года назад

Good One!! Enjoyed Cost/Benefit analysis. Because of my fishing addiction I do a highly technical analysis of our cost/pound of fish captured for consumption…. Its somewhere between $3 and $5 thousand a pound that goes in the freezer… eating our catch makes us very happy but…. Clearly an addiction…. 😵‍💫

@w.nicholasgarifalakis4382 Год назад

Extremely informative! Thank you for the detailed breakdown. As a private pilot, I budget similarly for the annual inspections and TBO items that will eventually require major overhauls. What I found interesting is how similar the costs are, despite owning a small, but late model Cessna 182RG. Kudos to you both for your enlightening and entertaining videos!

@MTMyTails Год назад

Makes sense with your maintenance budget being 10% a year at a value of $600,000

@johnkroetch4559 2 года назад

Seaview has always been great to work with, and yeah, Shawn IS a machine. Good job to both of you for knocking out some hard work. Btw - I bet the yard gets their paint at wholesale and sells it retail - jus say'n - but the rest of their fees seem super reasonable. Congrats on getting re-splashed. Grey boot stripe? Really? That is so 2021.

@jerryfrost4344 2 года назад

The costs seemed really great and the way you two budget and prepare for the maintenance in general is rewarding to observe - it just seems Nordhaven owners are inclined to maintain THIER boats in a pristine manner- your’s always look immaculate- Thanx again for videos and sharing

@Exhale69 2 года назад

MV Freedom is providing a real service to to those of us who want to go to sea. My "Offline" cost us every two years over the 8 years we had her in line with your costs. We had to find a hotel and I did some small tasks not anything as big as you guys did. We lived aboard for 18 months and loved every minute. The Bahamas was our hang out and cruising ground plus up and down the East Coast of Florida. You are a very good story teller and your editing makes it even better. Good luck to you both and continue the adventure.

Heads up, storing those Botes inflated in the sun can cause them to fail sooner. Best idea is to deflate them quite a bit if you don’t have the room to fold and stow.

@davekimbler2308 2 года назад

Givin your climate there and it’s your house , year around living on the water is doable! Not having a house or vehicles is also a plus but you missed the cost of the vessel ( good deal or not ) bringing that back in line ~ cost of a house is around $450,000 + taxes and upkeep so you are saving money !

Damn, that doesn’t seem that bad! I agree that you got a great deal on the bottom paint. I switched brands of bottom paint on my Hunter sailboat to BlackWidow (I sail on a lake) and I don’t think I’ll ever do that again. Way more labor than I thought.

@davidstrickler6570 Год назад

Not a comment. More of a question. The boat was sitting on the jack stands and the cribbing. You never showed how you painted/treeted the hull in those unexposed locations. I know you two are nuts for details so how was this done safely?

@rickbazuin8188 Год назад

Also interested in that as well!

@jeffwisemiller3590 Год назад

@@rickbazuin8188 The boat is basically stable sitting on it's keel, the boat stands are to keep it from tipping over. Easy enough to raise the boat 2-3" with a hydraulic jack to move the blocking around.

@nwnapper2 Год назад

most are washed in the slings then blocked. When it is relaunched they relift in the slings and paint the unpainted areas. This paint dries fast.

@jamesmoore2267 2 года назад

When you are having the bottom of the boat painted do they eventually move the stands and blocks to paint the areas they are blocking or do you just paint that area next time with the stands and blocks in a differ7location?

@athommen1 2 года назад

In Europe we do arrange things during the last lift--up so we can add the necessary paint on the hull to those areas. It's not a good idea to leave a hull without that special needed antifouling, even on small spots.

@JCrook1028 2 года назад

When it's being hauled back to the water in the straps is when those spots get painted.

Wow, great job. I’m surprised how reasonable your prices based on location. We are in West Palm Beach with a boatyard in every corner and prices are a bit higher.

@pete.marshman 2 года назад

Does the yard charge by flat rate or clock rate? For instance, the yard charges a flat rate of 4 hours for replacing one stabilizer shaft seal. You are charged $520 if it takes the worker 3 hours or if it takes 5.5 hours. It is a common practice in the automotive industry and was wondering if the same were true in the marine maintenance world.

They look like the same breed??!! We know you adopted Martha but don’t remember the back story. Small and compact and they seem to be very quiet. Are they? Great lap dogs! Our little girl passed last year and now we’re getting antsy for another dog. But we’re not up for a ‘barker’! Or at least relatively quiet. So? What’s the scoop?? Thanks for any thoughts.

Thank you for allowing me to live out the final days and hours of my miserable life with your beautiful family aboard your vessel Freedom!. I live in SE Virginia and my home port is the Outer Banks of North Carolina in the shadows of the Wright Memorial. I leave you with the following poem penned by a good friend and fellow Sailor and Mariner, a ship builder from Newport News, Virginia, Dick Poythress Fair winds and following seas in all of your journeys! FRIENDSHIP Anyone can build a ship As strong and tough as steel It's easy to accomplish No secrets to conceal. Understanding is the blueprint And all you need for tools Is a bit of generosity And the Golden rule Lay the keel with kindness The frames may be good deeds. The plates must be welded on By tending other's needs There are many kinds of ships With timbers strong and tall But the vessel known as Friendship Is the greatest ship of all! Dick Poythress (unpublished)
