What this video covers

Colin, skipper of Parlay Revival, undergoes surgical removal of a severely impacted, sideways wisdom tooth in Cebu City, Philippines, performed by Dr. Ian Lucero under local anesthetic for 400 USD — a procedure he describes as the most painful experience of his life.17:11 The tooth's root was wrapped around the jaw nerve and deeper in the bone than expected, requiring over an hour of drilling, cutting, and chiseling; the general anesthetic alternative would have cost 3,000 USD.18:19 Simultaneously, Parlay Revival undergoes a major flybridge enclosure refit in Cebu after seven years and 40,000 miles without one.0:29 Colin designed the full enclosure himself, sourcing 26 square yards of clear vinyl flown from Hawaii as checked luggage; upholsterer Marit quoted 110,000 pesos (roughly 2,000 USD) for labor covering both the enclosure and full replacement of outdoor cushion fabric with Sunbrella material.1:13 Flexorail bolt-rope track is installed at six-inch intervals, bent to curve using a heat gun.5:07 A fiberglass contractor accidentally bonds gel coat to the deck surface, and clear plastic sheeting left over surfboards creates a greenhouse effect that melts and destroys a foil board.8:04 A follower named Brian, who owns a Lagoon 450, hosts the crew for stand-up jet skiing between work days.9:26
