Tour and learn details of this 2019 59 foot Nordhavn coastal pilot. This boat is one of five that has been built so far by Nordhavn and is one incredible coastal cruiser. Most Nordhavns are built to cross oceans, this boat is designed with a semi-planing hull that will run up to 20 knots. It is a design comparable to other cruiser yachts made by companies such as Fleming, Grand Banks, and Marlow. 1000 mile range rather than the typical 3-4000 mile range of other Nordhavns Currently valued as a 2 Million dollar yacht. We caught this tour just before the boat is being taken out on a 3,500 mile voyage and did not get to tour all of the interior as we normally would to allow the owners to prep for their trip but tremendously kind owner took time to talk about and show off this beautiful yacht

Build and the functionality demonstrated of the dividing wall built of wood separating the van cab from the living space in the back of the van. Considering a van with a division between the cab and the living space? A van with a wall like this provides a few things and I have added several essential features that you may like to see! An access door allows for movement between the cab and the back of the van. Window cutouts allow you to see out the front of the van when living in the back and allow for visibility while driving out the rear and side windows. Fold up window covers provide privacy and keep in the light at night. A cutout in the wall allows for the 12v fridge to be stored away where the passenger seat once was located. Since this is a one-man van, a passenger seat will be needed very infrequently. The seatbelt is left in place for the occasional use.

Degreased the engine, replaced some failed gaskets, and diagnosed the stumbling idle issue. The biggest downside to owning a classic van for a live-in or camper is the old components like the engine. It requires the proper maintenance and some of the work can easily be done yourself. Like degreasing the engine! Simply cleaning up the engine can also help you do diagnose where oil leaks are coming from. Clean it up, drive it, and you will easily be able to spot what gaskets have failed. Take it to your mechanic if you would prefer but if you have a similar Ford Van or perhaps the same 300 ci straight six ford motor, I hope some of this content is helpful to you! The greasy carpet: Give a comment if you noticed the SUPER greasy carpet! I pan across the cab of the van as I go to fire up the engine after everything is reassembled and show the horribly greasy nasty old carpet. Not to worry - I replaced it! The carpet got SO greasy from scrubbing the engine with degreaser on it and rinsing the engine with water. With plans to replace the carpet anyways, this was a great way to clean up the mess easily! Fixing a stumbling idle I attempted replacing the MAP sensor, EGR valve, IACV (Idle Air Control Valve), to no avail. I also replaced any vacuum lines that were brittle or cracked that could present a vacuum leak. No luck. The issue turned out to be two vacuum lines both connecting to the front of the throttle body and they were full of what I thought was grease (as mentioned in the video). It turned out to be little pieces of the rubber vacuum lines as the rubber has deteriorated over the years. I see this issue searched and discussed on the internet and other youtube videos and perhaps you have the same issue and I recommend thoroughly cleaning the throttle body and replacing all vacuum lines. Stay TUNED for the next video covering this ultimate stealth camper van build. Now that the engine is running smooth, its back to the build!

Choosing and installing the right solar panel HQST Solar Panel Kit https://amzn.to/3oVsIUM HQST Panels are at least of the same quality as Renogy and have worked flawlessly for me. I recommend installation with heavy duty 3M double sided tape like this one https://amzn.to/3QdVoUk Rather than drilling holes into the roof. This tape will have plenty of holding power to keep the panels on the roof. Cable entry in the van roof https://amzn.to/3d6b1il This how-to guide shows how I did my installation and I recommend the panels that I used and the only thing I would do differently would be to use tape for the mounting. Good luck with the solar panel installation and any questions you have add them in the comments and we can all help each other out!

How-to including all the information you need for your own vent installation. MAXXAIR Mini Vent link: https://amzn.to/3SlyNaB I saved nearly $200 by going with the Maxx Air Mini Vent rather than the standard Maxx Air Deluxe. Hopefully this video answers some of your questions of how a fan is installed on an RV or a camper. If you are looking for the full size Maxx Air Fan Maxx Air Deluxe Vent link: https://amzn.to/3Spp174 This one comes with a remote so could be nice if you want to splurge! This is meant to be an easy walk through covering all the steps of the fan installation such as how to use butyl tape on an uneven van roof and how many amps the Maxx Air mini vent draws. Why I went with the Maxx Air Mini Deluxe: I got it for significantly less money than the Deluxe and it works flawlessly. The install process is the same and the major difference is a smaller motor. The mini will not push as much air and only has one speed setting rather than a few with the regular Deluxe fan. The mini has an LED light though and is quiet and easy to install!

Check out my other videos building the ultimate stealth camper van! Subscribe to see the progress! The stealth van plan: Layout is the number one task on your to-do list once you have your van. The smaller the van, the more precise your use of space needs to be to be able to live-in or camp in the van. Many build layouts include a bed across the width of the van. I chose to include a twin-size bed that can expand to a full-size bed oriented length-wise along the inside of the van. By not sleeping across the van, it makes access to the back of the van possible. By building the bed lengthwise in the van, I am able to sleep stretched out completely and can climb into the van from the rear doors. A bed set up like this maximizes the amount of living space in a live-in van. Easy camper van floor install: Reflectix insulation under ¾" plywood provides a cheap easy and effective solution to insulating and providing a moisture barrier for the bottom of your camper van. If you want to do the floor with as little expense as possible while still insulating and waterproofing the van floor, use reflectix under a plywood floor secured with screws. Attaching the plywood floor to the van with self-drilling screws, the plywood is secure and provides the best base for laminate flooring. Reflectix insulation is cheap, very easy to cut, thin enough to drill screws through, and is water proof. A common error I see van builders make is using thick solid foam insulation in the floor of their van builds. A layer under the plywood in a camper van serves three purposes: 1. Sound insulation. A layer of reflectix like I used will provide little to no sound insulation. But, by screwing the plywood securely to the floor with lots of screws, the floor will rattle less and less noise will transfer through the floor improving sound insulation. 2. Moisture barrier into the van. A small amount of effort to make the floor of your van last forever. Moisture entering through the thin bottom of the van. Moisture entering through the floor also has a great effect on the temperature insulation. 3. Temperature insulation. Hot air rises. By insulating the floor of your van, you will be building your van to withstand cold temperatures. One of the main areas that your van will let in cold temperatures will be through the floor. If you live in a temperate climate like I do, then a thin layer of reflectix will provide adequate temperature insulation. If you live in a cold climate, a thicker layer should be used. The best advice I can give to insulate the floor well is to be sure to cover every part of the floor, Patch any holes in the floor first, and I had to insulate the floor in a cold climate I would use two layers of reflectix and cover every inch and tie it together with tape. This will provide a better layer of insulation as thick rigid foam without losing the head room.

Affiliate link to the awesome very affordable LED christmas lights I purchased to string up: https://amzn.to/3Ql7jjy The Ultimate tour of my very small yacht! Although Catalina Yachts did a great job designing the boat many years ago, I found some improvements to make. Check out my remodel work done to the boat. I added a urinal in the boat which is a great alternative to a head with a holding tank. I built additional space for a mini fridge and freezer as well as a fold down table that doubles as a work desk. My custom boat mattress sits on a larger bed platform than original and I have shore power to charge my battery and power my fridge, heater, and lights. Water from the harbor with a Seaflow water pump, and of course the best feature of the Catalina 25 is the pop top. Easy to use, provides good air flow and enough head room to stand up in. I can't imagine living on a small sailboat any better than on this one! Hope you enjoy the tour.
