I can't wait to see her move under her own power. Y'all are doing great work.
what amazes me the most is you two have not hit burnout and needed to take 3 months away... Steady on, always making meaningful progress, wow, all of us out here world wide send our continued admiration.. Well done✔️✔️
Your sound quality is so much better. 😊 the new Mike's were a great investment. 👍 keep up the good work 👏
A good tip for pulling the small boat is to attach a rope to the stern and pull it along with that. The bow will want to go out so use the front rope to keep it under control. I pulled my broken down canal boat for miles doing that. Thanks for yet another great episode.

alternatively you can run the painter out through the jib-sheet fairlead. the boat will naturally turn slightly away and follow a course parallel to the bank.

Or even take a longer rope all the way to the slipway and pull it in from there.
The mics are great a lot easy to hear both of you , such a shame all those abandoned boats left to waste away such a sad sight, you are doing a wonderful job with the old girl , best wishes from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺
hello from France, I am impressed by your work. I use subtitles in French and I can tell you that with these microphones the translation is faithful whereas before I did not understand anything. A very good purchase that will allow me to better appreciate your work. Good luck for the future.
the mics are great, great to hear you both and have no wind interference
The binoculars look like a great asset. The removal work was well executed. The clip on mikes added greatly to the audio, and I swear I heard someone singing "I can see clearly now" might have just been my imagination. Good work, great progress, as ever. Well done.
So much activity today, going great guns, and engines sounding sweet too. Loved it XX
Mike's working great 🎉👍
I can say from experience that hauling stuff to and from the boat is so much work! Nice episode you two!
The DJI Mics are great! The sound level is much more consistent. I know you said you ordered another set of glasses, but as tonystanley says, strengthen them with a piece of wire. I'd drill a small hole in each nose piece and epoxy the wire and the halves together. MUCH stronger that way. Good episode!
Everytime i see this channel, the boat shrinks a bit more 😂😂😂😂
Your glasses are probably stronger than they were before to broke them 👍 and you quite right feed the parents and not the chicks, if you start doing that the parents will smell that you've been on the nest and abandon them. Love the sounds of those engines, both seam to be working really well.
Love the work you both do. Dont ever be disheartened from any negative comments because so many of us follow the work you're doing....me being one. Love your enthusiasm and being yourselves. Keep up the work, and you wiĺl be so proud of the finished project. So many of us look forward to the Friday post of the progress.....

Thanks so much 😊
The engine room is looking so clean and bright compared to how it used to be!
Please do more videos on your challenge. They're very interesting and informative and entertaining too. Cheers
Mikes very good. Hard work clearing boat, well done both. Another great video to add to the collection.
Thank you from Kentucky ✌️😎

Welcome!
Try pulling the dinghy with a rope attached to the rear of the boat and control the bow of the boat with the bow rope.
New sound is great. 🇨🇦
It's coming on nicely, fascinating watching the ship being reborn!
Both of you doing a great job on the bow, great to hear the engines start up again.
the epoxy works, you can also stick a paper clip wire along the top of the frames and strengthen it up covered in expoxy.. well done G, a good idea..
You should buy or make a 3x10 adjustable shelf that you can hang off the side of the ship with either ropes or u-shaped pipes that has adjustment holes so you can change the height all so you can work off the side as far as just above the mud or waterline that is at the time you are working to the top, that way no mater what the level of the tide is at the time you are working you can still do what needs to be done.Think of how a window washer works on a high rise building.

That's a really good idea!
You guys make me tired just watching you, I think I need a nap.
For your glasses a better repair is to add a small strip of metal or pin with epoxy, ideally top and lower front. Its less aesthetic but way stronger. You need to spread the load out over wider glued surface.
Simon a lot of the mechanic youtubers i follow hot glue a go pro mount on a peak of a baseball cap, its hands free when trying to work.
Cor blimey those binos would be great for scanning all your favourite steam twains … serious Thomas the Tank engine stuff… Choo Choo … ps a lot of euphoniums required here … chortle 🤭
You got baby bird's on your boat how cool.
And you two continue with the steady progression of returning Sarinda to seaworthiness! Great work again!
Drill a small hole in either end of your broken glasses, then fill with some epoxy and fit back together. Can put a toothpick in the holes to help keep them together. Should hold you over until you can get some new glasses.
You are getting there hope monster is ok Be safe guy's
Микрофоны не главное! Смотреть на ваши счастливые лица-это доставляет огромное наслаждение просмотром.
Nice Have a nice weekend. Cheers
good work folks love watching working together so well better than any soap opera
New mike's are very clear. Hope you check what class laser is on those binolulars before pointing them near anything that matters?
Having good audio makes a video better, more so than pushing video quality beyond a certain level. I have enjoyed watching your channel.
Love the videos and you are both stars. The nesting birds are swallows and they catch flies in the air to feed the chicks. Not a good idea to try to feed them, they just like to be left alone.
The mic's are a hit. They work great.
Mics are impressive, could hear you over the engines!
Another fabulous episode - loved it and as usual, the real deal 👍👍
Your dinghy looks like a cut down Bosun. They were designed as leisure deck cargo for the RN.
Amazing difference with the new mikes!
You could use a two disc stack block for lifting heavy equipment.
Well done with the temporary on the glasses, at least you can keep your boyo in check😂😂
CA glue works great to permanently repair glasses.
If the binoculars had some video stabilization the recorded image would be much better. Most modern sport cameras have that feature.
true hard work and looking good guys .looking forward to Tuesday episode 😊
19 16 Thursday . Just a thought you may be able to tow the sail boat Hull better if you attach the tow rope a foot or two from the bow on the starboard side . When walking the boat back to the ship
Looking really good.
From The Goon show (the guided naffi) "are you a spy?" "Yes" "Then why are you covered in mint?" "I'm a mint spy". Great job folks. Love to see the seemingly rapid progress now and the engines sound great.
Sarinda is not a piece of junk; you take it back.😂 I know it’s a temporary feeling. 🎉🎉 on the glasses, the wedgie bits and the trash removal. Tons done today, and some engine roar. Thumbs up.❤🎉
Piranha I think by Black & Decker do a decent counter sink with a replaceable drill bit. I've used them on oak and soft wood. They have a hollow hex end and an Allen key adjustment for the drill bit depth and replacement.
For repairimg glasses best to cure the glue that is cured with ultraviolet light as you can nold everything in position and cure it very quickly!
May be the name of the bow boards are stem boards, great work your doing , my late dad was a shipwright.
It's...Start your boat time! Sarinda sounded great!
Jemma made a " spectical" of herself.... again. 🤣🤣 Good episode as usual guys. 🇦🇺🐨🇦🇺
Seems like a pole to push the little boat off the bank while walking it might help.
Lots of my followers reminded me to check out your latest episode! I'm repairing a 1940 40' Seaplane Tender which is constructed of double diaognal mahagonay and oak ribs. We believe she was stationed on Lough Erne in Northern Ireland during the war. Love the work that you two are doing to revive a boat with such history. Fantastic work! Looking forward to seeing her cruising once again.
Great choice with the microphones. It really makes a difference and has improved the sound. Feels like you were able to catch much more of the banter and back and forth that way. Keep up the great work.
at 24:10, i remember replacing my boat batteries, those buddies are HEAVY..
Loved seeing the logistics and behind the scenes... some great camera angles too with your new tripod!! Keep going, you are doing such amazing work! x
Supplying and removing waste is quite a lot of hard work - sound was so great - excellent episode.
The mics were a big improvement ... almost no wind noise ... well worth it!
Your little microphones work great no wind at all sound great to me .
Great job.
She does generate a lot of trash. But that’s good because, out with the trash and in with the new. I bet you guys are feeling good with all that new timber at the bow. Looks good.
I'm always surprised by how much rubbish you keep removing. Love the work!
You'll always have some sort of wind noise depending on how hard it's blowing, but everyone that I've seen using those DJI mics have had a huge improvement in audio quality. If you build a zipline from the car park to Sarinda's upper deck then you can load/unload gear whenever you want! lol. With all of the spare time and money you guys have, you could design and build a 20 foot aluminium pontoon/barge for hauling equipment/parts and have it lashed alongside. Power it off an old 2 litre motor from a random Fiat/Escort/VW. Saves having to fight the tender on and off the mud lol. When the tide's out you can fall back to using the zip line.

You two guys are the most tenacious KZreadrs I watch or know, the work you do on the boat is awesome but just watching you guys get to her, derubbish her, get supplies to her and watch you work in your shit English weather really does make you extraordinary folks, hats off to you. Simon I always love it when you kick those big Cats into life and I can’t wait for the day when you have her out in open water under her own power. All power to you guys
What a team you two make what with the hassles of doing one thing at a time and or actually getting to an from the vessel . Allan
The mics are gooood, can hear you really clearly in any wind, great.
I was just thinking epoxy the glasses when you said you were going to!
You should look into installing preluber on those engines talk to some engines marine guys ask for details
I like the new safety standard with the batteries. "No one died"!!
Absolutely Fabulous does not cover it....... I love watching you two working away....always a smile, despite some of the difficulties you have obviously both faced. I'm watching from Chile.....and I am really envious of what you are achieving there.... when I was younger, that project was one that I would have embraced.... being Ex-Merch... But, as they say: Life Got In The Way. Take care you both...of each other....you are rather special people.
Hi to you Robins family! Just recently discovered your channel and it is really amazing what you are doing and have already achieved so far! You guys really tackle it well. I love it. Best regards from the Netherlands
I clean my glasses with an Aldi microfibre cloth. One is always in my work bag with others handy at home. So far my lenses have not got scratched or the frames fallen apart.
Thanks!

Thank you so much Wiley, hope you have a great weekend xx
Those mics are a GREAT UPGRADE! We can actually hear YOU instead of the wind!
I can’t believe how much work you have to do hauling stuff back and forth. Im jealous that you have such a cool project. Enjoy while you can because like me and a bunch of surgeries I can’t do it anymore
Hi Simon, and Jemma , Thank you for the great video I just love you guys you’re always put a smile on my face. Love your play around and have a good time around together. Keep up the good work surrender is looking fantastic Cliff from Logan city Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺 from the big island🏝️
Great episode. The new mics give a more immediate feel which is excellent
The Mics are much better.and its bad when you get your thing stuck in the mud like that. And i am glad to know that i am not the only one who Grunts when I work, it seems to Help!
I so admire the way you tackle every job and deal with all of the problems that come up, good luck !!!
Wireless mics really help sound quality, and sound quality is so important in a video, more than people realise. Have I got this right? The cross planking appears to be glued together along the plank edges, but one layer of planks does not appear to be glued to the other just screwed or riveted. No shortage of alternators 🙂 Spotted the Sailor Radio, all modern comms 🙂
9:53 catching on the bottom of the centre board casing and the bilge keels
hi beautiful people... i was thinking the same gemma 😀about the epoxy 26:40...Sarinda is glowing more and more each week...nice job guys!
I was just gonna say, you're gonna have to pull a Jack Duckworth! lol
according to my mariner friend the Wood you fixed to the front are called Bow Bracers
sounds great
You guys are brilliant. Your woodwork and repairing skills are really great to watch. Gosh those engines sound nice (I'm an engineer so I appreciate the twinkling fiddly mechanical bits). Love these vids. Love you guys. 🥰
The mics were an excellent improvement! 👌

Good to hear!
Hey u guys from michigan USA great job your perseverance is admirable
If you tie a rope to the bulkhead on your little boat and use that to pull it you will find it spends less time running in to the bank. Give it a try, what have you got to loose? Loving see how Sarinda is evolving and the new mikes are a 110% improvement.
Loving the wheel house tool storage !😂
Those new mics are the dogs 👌
Mics are great, they make the tool action very real
