Have you ever dreamed of
Have you ever dreamed of fixing up and restoring an old sailboat to sail around the world? In this video I share the back-story as I start a multi-year refit of a classic fiberglass sailboat.
I quit my 9-5 job to chase after my dream to buy an old fixer-upper sailboat and go for it.
Restoring an old sailboat will not be an easy diy boat project. We found our Liberty 458 cutter, Antidote, in need of a fairly major sailboat refit.
I love boat work but this is the most extensive sailboat restoration project that I have ever attempted and I have asked myself on more than one occasion if I have lost my mind.
Stick around for a packed series of fiberglass boat restoration videos as we rebuild this old boat together and enjoy the sailboat transformation before and after.
If you love sailing, restoring old boats, or just want to learn about how to repair an old fiberglass boat then I hope you will enjoy this series.
Stay tuned into the channel for future videos about:
-Removing and repairing an old teak deck
-Investigating and replacing original encapsulated chain plates
-Inspecting and rebuilding an old rudder
-Replacing all of the underwater metals
-Fixing an old rotten teak cap rail
-Designing and installing a brand new electrical system
-Rebuilding an old Lehman 90 diesel engine
-Fixing an ancient 180 gallon steel fuel tank
