Man, I found your channel because of your tractor. Then your whole way of being spoke to me. Now you’re teaching me about sailboats, which have always baffled me. Would you guys like to adopt me? Haha.

though I'm not a sailor, I enjoyed your video very much. I could have listened to the soothing music and watched the beautiful sunset for much longer. I had no concept of sailboat maintenance before this.

Your Enthusiasm on going places fascinates me... That is myself to a T... Thanks for the video.. I learned alot.

Thank you for this video. I recently purchased a used P18 that I sail single handed. My biggest fear has been capsizing my boat. Watching this has been very reassuring!

How are you finding sailing alone? I'm worried about my ability to handle this myself! I only have a year of sunfish sailing experience. That little thing was actually scary in heavy winds. Never capped it, but never pushed my limits or the boats limits.

I have never seen anyone do cleaning this way. It was also interesting to see how this boat wants to stay upright.

Thanks for this video. I own a Precision 18, and always wandered about the stability of it. Now I know.

Great to know - I've had my P18 since 1990 and I was glad to hear this. Awesome boat!

That 'desire' to right itself is amazing. The open topped dingy I learned to sail in had no sealed cockpit, so when I capsized it while learning the ropes I could not just clean the bottom- I could clean the interior LOL. Thanks for the well presented and interesting video.

You guys are a real cool couple enjoy watching your videos you know how to get the most out of life

I want one! Seriously, that is a really nice looking boat, and I subscribed to see more videos. Great video, and thanks for posting.

I did mine like that by accident. The launch site was in a little cove with pretty good sized hills surrounding it. I sailed out and got just past the hills and got hit by about a 25mph wind and immediately got knocked down (I was 90 degrees to the wind) it put the lifelines right in the water and I was standing at the base of them. I released the sails and it immediately righted itself and I set up the sails to be able to sail again. It was a freak wind and the rest of the day was a good sailing day. They are fun boat for the day or a weekend camping trip. Extremely low draft and great to get into little places and light enough to “manhandle” if you do get stuck somewhere. They sail like crazy in the lightest of winds.

Holy Cow! I was thinking of getting into sailing. I've only dealt with a little sunfish! This is a giant upgrade. But, after seeing you cap this like that and how just sits there? Amazing. I was super careful to never push my little sailboat. Even in super heavy winds, I respected my limits and the crafts limits. Great video. Great Sailboat.

Very comforting to know what a stable little boat this is!! We sail ours with a 135 jib all the time and it makes a marked difference in performance for us.

Really cool! You guys are an awesome team! Its nice to see how you enjoy both the land and sea lifestyle. I'm a country boy but into trailer sailing adventures too.

Great videos. On this one I couldn’t believe the mast was able to take the strain of pulling the boat over.

5:32-5:36, so awesome... best 5 seconds of video I've seen a long time. You've created a really impressive and unique video and I can't wait to see more of them! Thanks for putting it out there, hope y'all are still at it!

Last time you two popped up in my feed you were trying to flip a tractor. Now you pop up again trying to flip a boat. 😂 Seriously cool channel though. Good content.

Thanks for sharing, looks like a very comfortable boat. Not having the mast in the way really opens up the cabin nicely. Great that you are able to pull it over to scrub her bottom. I would rig up a small pulley or come along to make that a piece of cake, especially with my crappy shoulder, lol.

Thank you. It's the first time I've ever seen that done.

thanks much. Great video and information. i picked up a nice precesion 18 in NJ and trailered to my NW Florida beach shack and hoping to get in the water soon. Gave me the needed confidence in the boat. thanks again and be well.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I enjoy the videos!

Good video. Love your sailing exploits. You've got to have confidence in the condition of your chain plates and shrouds to attempt that ..... and property sealed windows. 👍

Great video, as a fellow P18 owner, I'm only in freshwater, but this technique could be useful for any bottom repair and it had not occurred to me to do it this way. Thanks, look forward to checking out your other videos!

That is a really nice boat and safe. If I were in the market I would definitely consider a Pricision 18. Thanks for the video.

Awesome video, you two!

I used to have to clean the partyboat by myself with a hooka rig I made from an oil less nail gun compressor. That boat has a lot of surface area and it took awhile to clean. And the thing I noticed about time is that the difference between cleaning every 5-7day's was cleaning with a scrubby sponge and in as little in just 10 days was cleaning with a stainless Brillo pad and 14 days cleaning with a scraper and all of the above. On a boat that size with so much surface area the difference in cleaning time was emence. Like 45 min for every 5-7days to 2 hr for 10 days. I could never get the crew to help.. They'd just put life jackets on and play along the water line

Great video, thanks. I have a Sirius 21 swing keel. Same righting powers. Test your boat. It will give you confidence.

Thanks for sharing! Take care and GOD BLESS 🙏!

I can see how that little boat can turn into a Trebuchet real quick! LoL instead with a little careful guiding you just Tarzan a little bit 🤣.

That's it straining to get upright again, even with the keel wound up fully. We got a Sailfish 18 last year. Having lots of fun. It's been out the water for the winter but will be going back in soon.

GREAT TIPS!!! I FOLLOW YOU

This video was useful to me. Thanks

You've inspired me to try this with my 22' trailerable. I might even make a video for owners of my model. (Your ablative bottom paint seems to have... ablated.)

Water must be warm to grow like that . Must be east cost in thous warm bays.North West cost clean ones a moth. No clue were Chesapeake Bay is . Thanks for your videos. Be safe".

Wow. That could be a game when you get bored. Ride the rope!

Nice Sailboat

hey guys even cleaning the bottom of your boat you seem to enjoyed yourself never own a boat but it does looks fun but there is the maintenance part that you showed us in these past video tells me that you don't just buy a boat and throw it in the water and ride there is other things to think about that you have to do to help your performance on that boat by the way check your email if you got a chance if you are coming south to St.Augustine let me know you got the info you need in your email have a great day

Just curious why not bottomed paint it? I have a Capri 18 and I'm not sure my bottom is that dirty after an entire season. Although I do put on a fresh coat every spring. On another note, I totally disagree with one of your previous commenters. Keep your lady in the thumbnails, lol, she's what made me click on your videos long ago. She's very pretty. Now, I come back for the content. Either way, I'm subscribed. See you on the water!

Try that with wet sails 20 knots wind and 6 ft seas. A strong wind can hold a boat over if sails are still cleated.

I if you can just clean it like that you don't need antifouling at all. But I guess if I was going to attempt a crossing to Hawaii or a similar trip that takes about a month I would use antifouling. But with this boat you can tip it and paint half at a time.

Use the main halyard and crank it over. We did many times on a venture 26

This is where the phrase overhauled comes from

Great demo of righting capability. Just bought a P18 and have seen some recommend putting 80-100# lead ballast in keel/bilge area. Do you think this is necessary?

Is anti-fouling not allowed in those waters?? great video 🙂

All that writing motion with the keel up imagine with it down

Is your whisker pole adjustable? How does it attach to the mast at lower end?

I need the plan of this boat

Wow hard to believe boats get that grimy under water, makes me wonder what big ships do they usually dont up-right them self's that easy.............

Does it reset itself like that if someone is in the cabin sleeping? You should try that as a surprise/safety instruction video just for research some lazy afternoon. No warning. :)

LOVELY.................

Why don’t you antifoul the hull - no more scrubbing every 10 days!

you sold me on this boat, but thats only ten days growth? you need new bottom paint.

Draft dow 4 foit 6 inches

You do this on 10 day or less intervals? Wow

👍😎

I always use anti fouling paint so I didn’t have to do that .

👍👏😄

What are the odds you can do the same thing with a Precision 23?

I used to do mine once a year! hahahahahaha

For real when you say 10 days of growth?

On your way back to the Ozarks, if you need a place to crash, I'm in a St Louis suburb, right on Highway 64. Not sure how to make anonymous contact, but lemme know if this would be helpful...

Draft 18 knch searay 260 sunder iter up

Did you clean all your Anti foul away

Is there any chemical or paint that is semi legal to paint at the waterline to fight the plant growth.

If it had some anti fouling paint on it it would help .

@@CarvingAPath Ours is an 87 as well. I can't wait to show this video to my wife. She always freaks out when the sailing gets good. I keep telling her that's how a monohull sailboat is supposed to work and that this boat is almost impossible to capsize. And if for some reason, the impossible does happen, you just get a little wet.
