He's a bit of a jack of all trades so he will appreciate your ingenuity and skills as a multi faceted engineer! Your uncle I'm sure is well proud of you recommissioning his boat! Amazing how much better alloys hold up in salt water compared to the old steel wheels!! Great video mate! The boat turned out AWESOME! WHAT a fantastic boat! That engine so quiet! But PROPERLY powerful especially on that hull! (Boat looks bit like an old Shetland Cabin Cruiser!? I've ALWAYS wanted a Shetland!) A couple of my mates had them years ago well popular in Britain, but might just be cos the windows and cabin style they often had a tri hull design aswell) love that you get the wife and kids involved in the projects too! (I bet the kids have learned/are learning alot more than you realise even at their young age!) Great catch at the end aswell, just an idillic place to live!! Well done Great Job!! We need to do more of this kind of stuff 100% both for the environmental reasons, also for the purposes of regaining and learning new skills in general for the population and also the way the "world is going" who knows WHAT'S going to happen next!?? (we may ALL need these kinds of skills that you so expertly possess ALREADY!) I've been following you a few years mate and CANNOT overstate how much I'm impressed by your engineering/design execution of ALL your projects from machines to boats off Grid electrical solar water and thoroughly entertaining! I'm interested all sorts of things also just don't get the opportunity to put it into action, but if the SHTF with what I know already and learned through watching you mate I think I'll be bit more prepped than most lol 😂🤣😎 (I been building am extensive tool kit and about to build a workshop to get started want to start with off Grid solar set up totally DIY even the batteries from cells if financially still cheaper) given gas electric gone through roof in ENGLAND over Doubled in price last month!!!

FWIW the air voids under the stringers would have been intentional. When a boat is smashing through big head seas, the stress distribution across the hull concentrates into the stringers. If the stringers are in direct contact with the fibreglass skin then they form 'hard points' relative to the relatively flexible fibreglass skin, and that can tend to cause stress cracking along the junction between the glass and the stringers. Boat builders would thus often elevate the stringers around 1/4" - 1/2" off the hull such that the only points of contact between the two were via the longitudinal tabbing, which (in theory) should have been a nice big fillet extending 1.5" each side of the stringers. That detailing allows a bit more flex in the stringer / hull joint and minimises the likelihood of stress cracks along the junction. The issue is that it does leave the underside of the stringers susceptible to rot UNLESS you 'glass them all around before installation, which was too much work for most boat builders and thus they just slapped them in raw. Hence so many older boats being horribly prone to rotted stringers. Just for background. Your stringers are solid as and most rebuilds are done just like you did.
