Looks great 👍 but you may want to have them teach you how to weld aluminum with a small welder you can have with you in the middle of nowhere just in case 🤔⛵️
Sebastien seems like a solid dude. Probably be a good addition to your crew.And he is a good video editor!! Top Stuff !!
Sebastion seem like he could be a good fit. I like the problem solver part of him.
Sebastien seem's genuine and like able and the fact he can edit video's should make him quite an asset to you as we all know how you loath editing lol
That's quite the aluminum jigsaw puzzle Plukky. But it's going together incredibly quickly. I'm impressed and stoked for you. Buena suerte, cuídate mucho amigo.
Sebastien seems excellent... Keeper.
Sebastian seems solid and honest danger board progress looks great.
Yes to the straight-up Quebequois.

Sebastian can probably add better food choices and video than the Pluckster. Lol
Mate, the amount of work that’s been done is crazy!!!!! Quality! 🎉
Great stuff nothing but quality.. The boat's looking awesome
Hope everything is going well Plukky, your boat's looking more like a boat and less like a pile of Aluminium every day. It will certainly turn heads when it's on the water. All the best to you and all the best to the marvellous team building it.
5:34 those are good welds.
ok, while Sebastion can't apparently run a spell checker he seems like an ok bloke!
Keep it going build build the fastest cat. Out there
Nothing but quality design, execution and future crew. Impressive! Thumbs up for Sebestien.
It is coming along real well. Those dagger boards are tricky to install. Great progress.
Sebastian would appear to be a good addition to the team Peter. `great video
Looking good Plucky 🤙🤙🤙🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲⛵⚓⛵
I can't believe how far along the build is already, wow! 🤗💞
3rd applicant is solid
Love it, Love it. Love it!
THANKS FOR BEE🐝ING YOU
Your first good hair day plucky. 😂🎉❤
Well I vote for beard guy! Hah ;-) Sebastien would suit Freedom 2 quite well, good application, though I would want to see him eat sea cucumber first. Or even a fish head, duck cheek, sea cucumber stew or pie.
Wow. There's a lot of detail in all those details.
Amazing progress with the boat. Great building crew. It is going to be a glorious boat. Lisa will be happy, everything will be working on the boat. Thanks for th video captain.
@8:50 something...that would be a cool Stealth access/egress for undeesirable/barnacle removal..!
Top stuff..an excellent video..and kudos to you Plucky..you continue to surprise me. This enterprise is all your own doing and its like a perfect example of how you can do amazing things if you have a dream and enough energy and versatility. Quite how you chose this shipyard I do not know but that was a good decision.

That's not quite right. There is Odisea, Adonis the builder...my part is small
Hi Plucky, thanks for the update - progress of the chess board looking looking good! Sebastian looks nowt like Lisa but I agree appears to be a top bloke!
Sign up #3, he's wacky, he might have some friends to join the party boat, just see it now plodding along with clouds of dope smoke coming out the windows 😂😂
Anyone who gets a finger in the eye especially from a teenage daughter is defiantly top stuff and do a background check top stuff
love sabastain,seems to be a nice addishion..canadas my neighbor
he would be a great choice!
can't wait till splash day and see this boat in the water. keep up the good work Plukky
nothing but quality
Hi mate! you are using aluminum honeycomb.....you are REALLY ON THE NEXT LEVEL!!!!! you guys are pushing it aren't you!
By the way Plucky, pick people that are articulate, pleasant, easy going and just Shine !
6am even 5 am, no prizes for guessing what I'm doing at that time. Messing with the bracing, try that at sea I dare you 🙂.... that's a thought are you taking a TIG welder with you on your voyage? and some sheet aluminium, various shapes and sizes (I've seen your videos I would take a few - girl crew and all - whoops now I'm in trouble).
Still apologizing for my comment about your lack of comments Plukky. I do hope you get to see some applications from adventuresome young ladies in the future. You have aways had great success as a sailing tutor in those circumstances.
I like your boat; if I win the lottery, I will definitely buy one. I'm looking forward to seeing you sail it.
Ahoy Plukky!🏴☠🔱
Can u do a segment on the welder they use thanks
Plucky, let's gooooooooooo!!!!! ..... I've been waiting as per usual and literally just got home from the beach down here in the keys.... I've been waiting to see some progress bud 👍
Theres strictly no bodge it n bash it here, nothing but quality people 😂
Is my boat finished yet so I can stop smashing this button
Amazing progress Pluky.
Fine building continues and some possible crew. Standards
Sebastian seems like a great candidate for sure but the shut down part Idk if that'd be a good thing comes Emergency time .a 7 out of 10
Good job Plucky
An excellent video
Still waiting to see how they attach the inboard bow plates. 😮
Looks like it will be underway by Oct 1.
Looking good !

Looking good there Plukky, keep an eye on them.
Pert near retired Pluck. Sailor and electrician, will travel. Ps i fly drones.
Timing! #1! I have been watching trying to work out where the dagger boards will go or if they are already installed. It is really getting close to systems installations.
Plukky, I have the time and the money and the experience but I don’t think I’m a team player anymore. Wish I could.
Hmm i would keep with all girl crew mate cheers from OZ
I’m ready I don’t even wear clothes I’m a45 years old man lol let’s go plucky

Hello Plucky,Any chance of you putting a mic on your collar so we can hear you talking.The grinding and other noise is masking your speech.
Nice space for hanging lockers behind the dagger board housing. Is it possible to loose the dagger boards? Could they slip through the dagger board housing?
Sebastien looks like he could be a good fit, brings some skills, and world travel during COVID wasn't easy. The family's back in Canada and he needs to rebuild the kitty. How much are you paying?
Yo Klebs!
I don't understand how they can do so many welds and make sure they're all watertight before they put the boat completely together and put it in the water.
Hey Plucky Are you using L shaped dagger boards like Nahoa to give the boat some lift while sailing.
@SAILINGintoFREEDOM

They are using mini keels
Hahaha....Neanderthal wears flip flops to ride a bicycle........I'd be bearfoot...oops...barefoot skulking around the workshop!....
Sebastion gets my vote but will he miss his family ??
Yep, top bloke indeed is Sebastian. Strikes me as self aware and, yeh, got some skills. Old mate cotton mouth Joe seems confused about where did he come from, where did he go so…. Yeh nah yeh: prolly not, hay?

So much work, so many welds, amazing to see something so complex go from paper to reality. Are there any female craftsmen in that shop?

Plukky can you get Elon Musk Company to install a GPS automatic pilot system so you can program the boat to come to New Orleans, then up the Mississippi River to Baton Rouge and pick me up ? Thanks Mate.
❓❓PLUKY ❓❓ Do you have a "COIN" to place under the MAST❓❓

Using dagger boards instead of mini keels, are you able to beach the boat?

Yes, when he raises the dagger boards up.
So, just curious, what’s the total cost for this build?
Plucky what do you think of Brian from Sailing SV DELOS building a cat as well aluminum hull cat ??? Hes doing it himself i dont think he relizes how much tig welding is involed on the Commercial scale ???

He knows what he is doing
So it almost looks like they put the dagerboard in then they weld the dagerboard case around it ? If I were patient I'd wait and watch lol. Or, that is the case ? sorry
Cap'n, My Cap'n. Sebastián should start the list, at least for now! Your Welcome! ✝️🙏❤🇺🇸🇸🇭⛵👣🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍🤗
What are the main differences between your new boat and Delos2.0?
@SAILINGintoFREEDOM
Ай бұрын
Delos boat is very heavy. No cats should be heavy. Don't trust me, talk to any catamaran sailor. Expedition boat is code for sail slowly and poorly. Crazy what people decide.
Also their probably gonna make these first few boats to such a high standard to set the market...... it's just genius to be there and film it to make sure as well.... you lucky 🤬 wish i could hear them in English what their going on about, meaning how their critiquing their own work....

Non to the non Canadian!
"To sail the world fossil fuel free" In an aluminium vessel welded together - have you any idea how much power it takes to smelt aluminium in an arc furnace? Up to 14 114 kWh of energy to smelt one metric ton! Plus TIG/MIG welding takes 3 to 4 kWh per welder. Fossil fuel free, I think not!

Sebastian has unfinished travel business. Any guy who admits he is a hot head when tired and just needs time out to recover is a too bloke. Do u think his wife and kids know he is applying. Surprise 🎉🎉🎉
