A week ago I downloaded the Kindle version of the 1944 Diaries, the diary was written by Frank Capstick who served on board what we know as Sirinda but back in 1944 it was a naval vessel supporting the fleet and took more than an active role in the D Day landings I believe Simon & Gemma have targeted having the ship ready to join the 80th anniversary celebrations. It really is a good read, yes there are lots of days just going to stores and cleaning but there were many days dodging the German mines and air attacks, all of which Frank captured in his daily diary. In the great scheme of things it not expensive and is a good way to support the work Simon & Gemma are doing in trying hard to renovate this historic ship…..so well worth either buying the paperback or downloading the Kindle version to support the cause as I understand all profits go into the project.

Hi Derek, thank you for the wonderful feedback, I’m so happy you enjoyed the book, it’s great to be able to look back in time from 80 years ago! It’s the history that made us fall in love with the boat. We appreciate your support xx

@madisonbusman7688 8 месяцев назад

I agree with Derek. I purchased the book as well. Fascinating read and after reading, I find that watching your videos has me thinking about Frank and his tasks as referenced in this. From the wheelhouse cleaning to painting chores amazing documentation of life aboard her. You both are doing an awesome job in this restoration !!!

@michaelfotheringham4940 8 месяцев назад

Yes please! A series of videos showing your shop build is a great idea. The banter you two have would be missing if you just did a single complete build or time lapse. We want it all!!!

@repairrestoreandrebuild8974 8 месяцев назад

I'd love to see the build of your new shop. Can't see people complaining, as you're working on milling for Sarinda in it when built, and saving money in the long run, so more money to spend on Sarinda.

@waskier4842 8 месяцев назад

Building the shop will be another adventure so, channel 2? Yes, definitely include it. Maybe throw in a "Live" every once in a while. Finish the build with a big 2 hour hilight bonanza. You have good content.

@alanwilliamson6769 8 месяцев назад

Excellent video! I am all for regular updates on the shop build. I love watching you two work together.

@bookman106 8 месяцев назад

Definite yes on the workshop. Definite no on wasting time filling the holes in the boards. It would be much easier to put up a very thin plywood, or the thin shiny stuff they put in bathrooms it's easy to wash off. You two are so wonderful. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.

@william.s.goodwin 8 месяцев назад

Simon, My Grandfather used to say, "Sometimes perfection gets in the way of 'good enough'". Make it strong, THEN come back and worry about pretty.

@tracybooth9665 8 месяцев назад

Prioritizing Sarinda is what makes the best content! Oh, and whatever Gemma says is probably the right answer.

@grahamrowland969 8 месяцев назад

As far as your painting goes - Simon is always striving for perfection,, one of my traits, but at 66 I've learnt that it holds you back from acheaving. The Royal Navy would say, "paint it, but don't fill the holes", it's a happy medium while maintaining maximum protection. Think about it, you'll do the right thing. 👍👍

@sdwelham 8 месяцев назад

Love watching Simons face as he’s watching Gemma ranting about hole filling and cleaning…………….it was brilliant

Long suffering spouse. Goes both ways.....

@johnmorrison1180 8 месяцев назад

Simon your work will be faster by using a set of drill bits, like a set of sockets, you can find the correct one immediately. So when one is broken replace it and keep the set complete, or like me when I leave a socket in the engine I buy another.

@simonkelly2339 8 месяцев назад

I got that too.!

@fat_biker 8 месяцев назад

I get that re-engineering the electrics in that compartment isn't repairing the structure in the engine room, which is the priority, BUT I suspect the generator will be a key enabler, because it will allow you to use power tools more on board, meaning you can work faster on other things, _like_ structure. So you can make a case that sorting the new electrical panel & getting the generator going IS the priority, because it make so much else on the boat possible...

@alstewart9915 8 месяцев назад

Sarinda has come so far since you guys bought her! I can see how proud you guys are of her! 72 feet worth of boat is a huge project. You're doing it the right way. Structure first. Watching you guys go from compartment to compartment. Seeing unique problems come up. Then applying your cool solutions is the content😊. You guys are very talented with your woodworking skills! Kudos guys!

@verdigo5892 8 месяцев назад

You probably won't see this, but been watching most all of this project. Got here watching sailing channels. I've pretty much quit those but still look forward to watching you guys. Seems like you two are very well matched for personality and work ethics. From the outside I see a great friendship/marriage/partnership and a really cool project that illustrates your talents. Being American, It was hard to understand through the accents and some of the terminology at first, but now I can turn the closed caption off and get along just fine. Thanks for including us in your journey! Best wishes, and keep it coming.

@ShipHappensUK 8 месяцев назад

I’m so glad you can understand us better now, as after 3 years we’re all like family now!

@miketaylor9921 8 месяцев назад

I look forward to seeing everything you do, no matter what it is you are doing. I love what you do. 😂

@marklawton5753 8 месяцев назад

Personally I think you have the right balance. Why do we watch? Well its all about you guys, funny entertaining and relentless enthusiasm. Yes there are jobs we have seen before but there is always something new and the entertainment value from you is immense. Just keep going the way you are.

@chazl7171 8 месяцев назад

Gemma, I’ve really started to notice that the top of Simon’s head is weathered and showing signs of rot! I think it’s ’Paint your bloke time!’. 😂😂😂

@carolsullivan2599 8 месяцев назад

You two can do a video of whichever project you choose. You are the best thing on RU-vid by far.

@barbaradey1790 8 месяцев назад

Yes, we would love to see the shed built in increments while taping. We love you guys!

@shadetreemechanicracing22 8 месяцев назад

This isn't about the work. It's about the journey.

@SamHarrisonMusic 8 месяцев назад

Weighing into the sanding holes debate - I think those bulkheads look amazing because of the way they’re aged. Filling them makes them less beautiful! :)

@Minecraft-pj4hm 8 месяцев назад

Absolutely right.

@simonkelly2339 8 месяцев назад

Definitely! Just clean then paint to preserve the lovely character of the planks and nails.

@michaelhovey8007 8 месяцев назад

Fill the big holes. It can’t always be about the practicality of a task. You need little victories of beauty to keep you motivated. Time spent making something pretty is how you build satisfaction. Gemma, you have the mindset of a contractor, while Simon has the mindset of a Craftsman. You need to balance both.

@kduke4169 8 месяцев назад

Yes on the shop build videos! Always enjoy the two of you working together. Also interested is some of the choices you’ll be making for the shop and how it will help on restoration work of Sarinda. “Ship Happens - The Shop Build” coming soon…we viewers hope.

@DEmma1972 8 месяцев назад

Workshop build: Little videos 10-15 mins long. Maybe a separate channel on youtube as and when you can edit them.

@stephennelson3950 8 месяцев назад

“Form” always follows function! Make Sarina structurally functional first, THEN make her beautiful. I so much enjoy watching your channel, I was NAVY and worked on an old yard boat very similar to Sarinda at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton, Washington, in the early 1980’s, so many memories! Thanks, in so many ways!

@lancemitchell7883 8 месяцев назад

I think the proper name for that new little sanding machine is a ‘Linisher’! Linishing is the tech word for sanding to an acceptable finish. 👍

@CJLeTeff 8 месяцев назад

It’s a ship not a yacht, fill the big holes and paint it! 😁 👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤘🏻🤘🏻 You guys should consider an exhaust fan to remove the dust out the portal windows.

@shelleyregnier6671 8 месяцев назад

Fabulous episode of Ship Happens, starting with the beautiful drone footage at the beginning. Welcome back, Gemma! So nice to see you again. Si held down the fort admirably in your absence, but it's nice to have the R-team back together. In answer to your question: The more Gemma and Simon I have during my week the better, so I think it would be terrific to have regular (mid-week) updates of your workshop build. I also had an idea for a (permanent) wall within Sarinda: how about a mural depicting key aspects of Sarinda''s history? Not sure if you will have some wall space to do it, but if you do, it will be a lovely feature.

One legged table...like a dart. Simon you are a funny dude!

@johnmarsh9259 8 месяцев назад

Love to see the shop build video weekly, always look forward to seeing all the videos you do.🙂

@scottsorby7966 8 месяцев назад

Yes to seeing the shed build, in whichever format suits you not us. As for that wall Gemma is right save time right now and just paint it to make it look fresh until you know exactly what you're doing with it

@iainwilson4744 8 месяцев назад

Guys, do everything to make Sarinda functional. The you can make her look beautiful.

@evertzaal1298 8 месяцев назад

No, no sanding. The wall tells the story of the boat. And the workshop is part of your journey, so can be part of this channel.

@MarkSteigerSolonIA 8 месяцев назад

Maybe a third channel that could: - cover the garage build-out and related activities - boat-related projects like the generator, lumber prep, etc - 'pet' projects that are interesting but not marine-focused

@johnbazaar8440 8 месяцев назад

@rolanddunk5054 8 месяцев назад

Hi,I would love to watch you build your workshop in whatever way you decide,because it is always a pleasure to listen to your cheerful banter while you work so well together. It is like a happy time. Cheers ,Roly🇬🇧.

Shed build in small chunks whenever any decent progress has been made

@AndyCutright 8 месяцев назад

I can't believe I've been watching this channel for three years. Another five years is going to pass quickly I imagine. Stay focused on her hull and core health. You gotta have her ready for the anniversary.

@evewilkinson9653 8 месяцев назад

I would love to see the build. You guys are so lovely to watch ❤️❤️❤️

@Houghy-8550. 7 дней назад

Yes it was great to see the shed build thanks .

@everist22 8 месяцев назад

I’m loving the build. I’m fine with what you call ‘repetition’. Each episode has different nuances, challenges, construction and banter between you both. Keep them coming 👊🙏

@stevenwade5189 8 месяцев назад

Ad to watch the smiley face for the second time. All this time and still having fun. Thanks for sharing those silly moments.

@Offutticus 8 месяцев назад

I would like to see the workshop built because I love Simon's explanations of the "why".

@AceRacingRocks 8 месяцев назад

WE WILL WATCH, DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO ❤

@billradford2128 8 месяцев назад

More of us are likely to build a new shop than restore a big boat so you get even more subs and we get taught how to avoid catastrophes in our build. Win - win! And we love watching you guys do anything so more episodes rather than less. 😊

@simonkelly2339 8 месяцев назад

Just proper lol'd at the smiley on Simon’s bean 😂

@georgecoffman377 8 месяцев назад

I’d take Gemma as a work partner any day of the week !! That young lady is not afraid to do or tackle anything.

@WimvdBrink 7 месяцев назад

It keeps amazing me you 2 have so much fun when working together. It gives the feeling of a well oiled machine taking on any task at hand. Simon alone is great, but when you 2 are together its so much more fun. It doesn't amaze me anymore how the work is progressing, when I started following the channel I sometimes thought this is a never ending story, but you keep progressing so good. 5 years in working order, easy peasy ;-)

@dwansbo 8 месяцев назад

Please don't forget to mention that you bring all those lovely power tools home with you when you are finished work. Otherwise Somebody may be tempted to break in, they need to know they are wasting their time. Nod, nod, wink, wink.

@Narrowboat.and.offgrid.living 8 месяцев назад

Nothing like wasting time talking about the job you thinks going to waste time you two crack me up 🤣👍

@stevenwade5189 8 месяцев назад

Little bites. Then we can appreciate the effort put into the additional works required to complete the boat build

@CJLeTeff 8 месяцев назад

Break the build up into different videos, not a single long one! All the videos you guys posts are awesome!

@stephencrumpler1419 8 месяцев назад

Love to see the new shop being built. Not at once but bits. Also, as a guy, I hate to agree with the opposite sex but she is right. Don't fill the holes until they are sure to show. One for them, sorry, Simon.

@deborahbaty3369 8 месяцев назад

I love your videos. Two comments: I'd like to see your garage build in segments rather than one long video. Two - Just paint the wall in semi gloss or satin. The way it is gives character to the boat.

@the.only.jquick 8 месяцев назад

Do not fill small holes and other injuries, it is the ship's soul that it shows!

@ericmartin5720 8 месяцев назад

Hello, I have been watching from the start, you guys are amazing, watching the challenges, and processes invented to solve for the problems is really cool. Wax paper is great for keeping tools from getting glued/painted. Keep it up! Cheers from California!

@sergepavlovich 8 месяцев назад

Work is repetitive, but the progress is worth seeing that repetition. Keep up the great work!

@davemaddock7164 8 месяцев назад

Absolutely I think everyone would love to see the construction of your new workshop 😀

@CJLeTeff 8 месяцев назад

Really excited to see the start of the forward rooms! 👍👍

@johnmitchell5351 8 месяцев назад

Perhaps with the shed at home build ,you maybe could make some episodes with the sections from start to completion, say the floor the wall framing ,the roof and then all the second fixes and then the finish it could all then be done in a voice over JOHN

@terencepriestman317 8 месяцев назад

Yes please! Paint your shed, the mini series.

@DaleGlassey 8 месяцев назад

i vote for watching the shop being built in several videos

@anthonysimonhough9691 8 месяцев назад

Yes I would like to see your workshop build from beginning to end . Thanks for your great show.

@ShipHappensUK 8 месяцев назад

The first video is on this channel now!

@nevilleberghofer6791 8 месяцев назад

mid week workshop build videos would be great

@GraceMar-ky8kk 8 месяцев назад

If it's not structural, the filling holes in the utility room to paint t it can definitely wait until you know what the walls are needed for! Regarding the shed build, yes, a summary episode of how the new workshop is built would be great - perhaps even more useful for those of us without boats 😉

@mikescammells1081 8 месяцев назад

Love to see your new shop as it happens. I like to see the reality of the effort that goes in to a project like yours.

@johnnelson6835 8 месяцев назад

I wouldn't worry about fixing ever imperfection in the boats aesthetics. I think its safe to say that when shevwas built, noone would have been botheted if a few scratches, dents or imperfections were made to look as though every part of the build gad to be 100% perfect. The rebuild is going great and adding time to a tight schedule is some thing you might regret. Dont want to take sides. But if your going to cover those walls with cupboards, electrical cabinets or anything else, is something id forget about.😊

@charlesfinerd6171 8 месяцев назад

Personally I'd like to see a condensed version of your shop build. Maybe in a few videos. I really like watching the continued work on Sarinda.

@kenthobbs9920 8 месяцев назад

Yes your hard work on the sole shows and is needed for work around. For safety for sure. I'm impressed with all the team work and the way you both problem solving on issues.

@Malana12 8 месяцев назад

Simon, get some non food grade silicon spray and put it on your clamps. It will help keep the epoxy from sticking. It also helps wood slide easier on your saw if you spray the saw bed and it doesn’t muck up your wood. Just let it dry first on the tool before you use it.

@Scampcam 8 месяцев назад

I think Simons idea has merit to just make something done and finished, so you never have to touch it again. And making something pretty just warms something in your heart.. Even if you intend to cover it in shelves.

@jimlangford7222 8 месяцев назад

Yes to shed video, do two one building it and the second fitting it out

@davepfizer 8 месяцев назад

Get it done and paint it. Keep the character as much as you can. If it was bare wood you might think filling it and making it pretty might be a lengthy process but then may be worth it but something that might have 10 coats of paint on it just give it another coat!

@garypollard8776 8 месяцев назад

I applaud Simon wanting to tidy up all the holes and cracks etc., but they are also the stories and the history of Sarinda. I think you should concentrate and carry on with restoring her and leave the finer finishing once she is seaworthy again. As usual it is great to see you both reason it out with each other and in the end you will always prevail to get Sarinda further fitted for another sailing. Great work as always and thanks for explaining for us as we cannot be there to see for ourselves. Cheers from BC in Canada

@johnthompson6656 8 месяцев назад

I'm sure most want to see the build as we are voyeurs living vicariously through you all's efforts !!

@SmallSailboatCruising 8 месяцев назад

It usually takes me a generous glass of Shiraz to get through one of your eye watering episodes. I know how much work goes into the videos, so personally I’d say keep focused on the boat with the odd cameo for the shed. Well done guys! Cheers Chris.

@richardtaylor7767 8 месяцев назад

Glad to see you back Gemma. You're both enjoyable to watch by yourselves, but you're a team and it's just not the same. :)

@ShipHappensUK 8 месяцев назад

@chrisf6876 8 месяцев назад

Yes definitely film the workshop build 👍

@KenDriggers-p3j 8 месяцев назад

first time comment tech tip as you know CLEAN YOUR TOOLS before putting away and they will last forever , and clean and paint the wall and fill in the holes later when everything is on the wall be

@1425race 8 месяцев назад

Any video you two do will always be entertaining and the more variety, the better so bring on the shed build. I'm with you on Narinda's resto needing to be logical. Priority on the hull, then the deck then I would investigate her bottom. A bit hard when she's sitting in the mud but must be done at some stage. I wouldn't even worry about doing anything to the interior until the exterior is watertight, strong and comlete. Then, draw up a floorplan and stick to it. This will let you know what to keep and repair, what to rip out and what to build new, easy ha ha.

@toddfryman6178 8 месяцев назад

I’m with Simon… but what Gemma says make sense. so do what makes you happy .

@marklapierre5629 8 месяцев назад

She looks so comfortable sitting there in her mud cradle. Watching you two build a workshop would be fun. Maybe I can get some ideas for my workshop. Sorry Simon but I'm team Gemma. I see Simon drinking out of Mason's cup. We haven't seen the kids in quite a while.

@churchofthegreenflipflop2436 8 месяцев назад

the whole build of the shed in one single episode :-)

@Galactic-Jack1978 8 месяцев назад

Saying hi from Cape Town South Africa - I can't wait till the day all the restorative work is done and that hull looks brand new. That's gonna be epic. Love the build and look forward to seeing how you build the shed. One can always learn new things from anyone building something. Cheers guys.

@FranklinNewhart 8 месяцев назад

When spring comes you need to do some work days where everybody turns out. Do this to keep the audience interested. Rivets and Web frames in every episode can start to chase the watchers away.

@kimratto271 8 месяцев назад

YES PLEASE!!!! The whole thing I don’t want to miss a minute! I cannot get enough of the Gemma and Simon show lol❤❤❤

@intefixLoco 8 месяцев назад
