With the products available in Carriacou, an island heavily damaged by hurricane Beryl, I create a temporary roof on my hurricane damaged catamaran

  1. 🌴. Well Huub , it surly looks better than the busted up pieces that were on there , getting some stuff done topside and out of the way so you can concentrate on the massive repairs below is a smart move , we can tell your β€œjust itching β€œ to get that done πŸ‘πŸΌ I am looking forward to see how you tackle the keel repair and cracked bulkheads , just remember this is all sweat equity and the end result will have been worth it !

  2. @HuubVlogs you should do an episode on how to buy a storm damaged cat, who you contacted about availability and what you spent. Great series and I have watched since the beginning with Dirkje, who has gone missing in your video history for some reason!?

  3. Great job on the straightening of that metal bar ! Idk if you ever saw the show MacGyver but you remind me of him! Fixing things and coming up with creative solutions like you do is impressive πŸ‘ πŸŽ‰

  4. Hoi Huib, mooi project! Dit wordt een mooie boot om vele avonturen te gaan beleven.
    1 tip, je hebt plastic plaatjes geplaatst tussen het frame van de zonnepanelen en de moeren. Echter aan de onderzijde tussen het aluframe en de stainless frame zou ik ze ook plaatsen.
    Succes met het project!
