3D Printing: Prusa i3 pro b second layer failure


The Question: I just bought a 3D printer =＞ Geeetech Prusa i3 b.
I build it myself and I'm trying to print the famous boat, the Benchy one.
Here's my settings (I've tried Repetier host and Slic3r or Ultimaker Cura):

And that's the results..



Any tips about the settings? The problem seems to be when I print every other
layer but the first one which seems reasonable enough.
I used Slic3r with the settings taken from this video, www.youtube.com/
watch?v=p_YN8Q9r-Tc
Now the first layer is almost perfect but I still have problems with every
other layers, too much filament comes out and it's all messy, a bit like the
picture I posted above.
A video of the print can be found drive.google.com/file/d/

The steps per mm value for the Z shaft is 2560.
