    How Do They Expect You To Pour From This?

    Childproof packaging.  Try using a proper paint can opener instead of a flat screwdriver. I've put about 9 quarts of Perfection Plus on my boat and never had a problem pouring the catalyst from that little spout.

    inexperienced couple buy a p.o.s. catamaran

    I was wondered the same thing.  Maybe that's why she doesn't mind painting so much? Still curious about the label on that paint can.  No where in the video do they reveal the brand.  Maybe in a past video?  I personally can't see them dropping the coin for a gallon of legitimate anti-fouling...

    inexperienced couple buy a p.o.s. catamaran

    I'm really curious where the hell they got that blue bottom paint? Home Depot latex? Leftover from the houseboat refit, I suppose....

    inexperienced couple buy a p.o.s. catamaran

    I personally appreciated the hull-to-deck joint repair.  Half-ass is better than no-ass, right? Creepy giggles and whispers aside, I'm following this one all the way to its tragic ending... ...which should shortly follow.

    Cleaning soiled inflatable

    We've used Barkeepers Friend soft scrub cream with success.  Also, teak cleaner with oxalic acid works incredibly fast, but it tends to run all over the place due to the viscosity.

    Coffee

    Oil funnel and a PAPER coffee filter?  You're living in the Stone Age man. These have the filter built in, and they're available in multiple sizes. I've found that the non-food-grade plastic combined with hot water gives the coffee a wonderful flavor profile....

    Direct lead acid to lithium replacement batteries

    +1 more for Battle Born drop—ins. 500 Ah for two solid years and getting ready to add 3 additional 100 Ah units to the system.  Can’t do that with lead...     I still think reliable electric propulsion for any significant duration of time is a thing of the future, but thanks to those of you...

    Does Replacing Teak with a Substitute Wood Devalue a Boat?

    Wow, two inches wide by half inch thick eh?  That's quite the score.

    Greta Rides Again?

    Been away for a few weeks.  Looks like I didn't miss much. Still pretty fucking cold where I'm at; we could use a little Climate Change as far as I'm concerned. I live on a sailboat.  I give less than two shits if the sea level rises a couple feet over the the next decade, or eighteen months...

    Does Replacing Teak with a Substitute Wood Devalue a Boat?

    Depends on how you like your boat to look while you own it, and if you ever plan on selling it.  Do you want it to look like some Home Depot low budget Melamine and white Latex paint DIY kitchen remodel from a Saturday episode on HGTV, or do you want it to look like the rest of the boat did 40...

    inexperienced couple buy a p.o.s. catamaran

    Can't we all just sit back, watch, and enjoy the fact that we've done everything we can to keep OUR boats seaworthy? That's what makes this rookie shit show so much fun. Too bad there was no internet search function available when these two fuck-tards made this life-altering decision, right?

    In that case, I present you “Douche-knob” Bimini: Anyone know the name of that guy’s canvas maker?  I need a new dodger

    inexperienced couple buy a p.o.s. catamaran

    I felt that Man Bun throwing in the $1.95 wax toilet ring was a nice gesture. With a vessel like that who needs a $5000 life raft anyway?

    inexperienced couple buy a p.o.s. catamaran

    I just watched their "Gut the houseboat" episode and the guy actually says that he filled up his MOM'S garbage can, and all his neighbor's cans. Maybe she IS his sister....
