I love the clip insert of Judea -- I'm a fan. Indeed, she is absolutely The Boss. In fact, you might become the Captain of that dive boat, but Judea will always be the Admiral.

Justin, I'm really impressed by the progress you and your crew have made on your boat over the last 24 hours. It was a complete turn around. I can't wait to see you guys out on the water.

Filipinos been building boats even before the Spanish arrived. Nice to see this craftsmanship shown live on YouTube.

This episode 'when the tide is high' and you are taking the boat back, is reminding me of an old Blondie song called 'The Tide is High'! Lol. Such hard work all this patching due to tides etc I hope the Dive Centre isn't suffering while you are there with the boat. Good luck for the morning tow team and well done all of you.

Great story, I cannot help myself but to follow along - you are addicting, man!....Best of fortune in your crossing attempt.

04:15. Hi Mr Justin. You are a VERY SMART YOUNG MAN. For a cheap extra $100 for you expert helpers, YOU solved your most immediate emergency problem EXTREMELY FAST. Great on you. With labor extremely cheap there, this is a wise choice. And.. You are extremely lucky to have THE EXPERTS only 10 miles away. In the US there is no way this could be done without spending big money. All of the guys helping in your first days were very great helpers and did a great job. Smart guys talk to even smarter guys, like the expert boat builders. The experts can teach you 30 years a knowledge in 5 minutes. Most of the time they are gracious enough to do it free or the cost of a beer. I would love to meet one of the experts around there and learn from they. Wishing you guys the best, great job.

Looking Great, whatever floats your boat 😂

Better bring along a small battery powered water pump just in case for the 2 hour crossing trip.

Look where your adventurous spirit and drive/determination take you, Justin. You've come a long way! Couldn't imagine what you must be feeling right now with all your accomplishments. Am just happy to witness your evolution. Judia, always a supportive wifey, you both make a perfect team. Glad you got help fr the experts and business running along smoothly. Hope the boat will stay afloat. See you guys on the next one and thanks for another amazing video.

Justin, I have tore into many projects just like you. Been there, done that. If labor was really cheap, I would have hired it out instead of learning and doing it myself. Everything you are doing will be very very valuable to you with your kind of business. Good on you and your crew. Great job.

07:15... my friend. Justin just gave you a little break from the REALLY HARD WORK. We still hard working guys for painting and sanding ☺

[jims]

Great job! Good call hiring some skilled labor.

[joet-jqyk]

I hope they hook all the barrels back up before they try to float it ? What about the wood on the bottom ? Is it good ? Don't forget a good bilge pump .
