Operation Finish Burrito a success.

I'm pretty sure that was a Dorsett Catalina, Dorsett started in Santa Barbara California as a Plastics Company, they also had a plant in Bremen Indiana and Cambridge Maryland, the only reason I know that is because they make a sought after boat called a Dorsett Sea Hawk that looks like a Cadillac from the back. They actually made some of the best looking boats back then, that are pretty rare these day's.

Googled Dorsett. Company started around 1955. Thanks for your great vids. I live in LV . Be careful (from a nervous mom)😁

Boat is a great addition! I like the transport setup, it probably goes down the road better than a small trailer. Great idea

You never cease to amaze me Trooper, that boat and outboard gives me alot of memories of my deceased Father, he has explored the entirety of Lake Mead an we did alot of fishing, water skiing, snorkeling in our beloved Lake Mead, thanks again my friend.

Always, always, tie up your boat. Should another boat go by leaving a wake, your boat could be washed away and you'd be in a hurting situation.

NEVER walk away from an untied boat. One wave will wash it out. Seen it, done it been there. Great adventure !!#

The red shut off cable is a good idea. I read a story about a guy from NY rented a nice boat at Lake Tahoe. He went out to the middle. Set up his iPhone on a tripod and recorded himself jumping in for a swim. He didn’t have the boat totally out of gear. It was slowly moving away. The look on his face said it all. He drowned and the boat was found on shore days later. It was the deepest freshwater human remains recovery in history.

Always tie off your boat. You can never be too careful when you are alone. I enjoy watching your videos and I miss the Vegas desert. Don’t want to see you get stranded anyplace. I had 2 blowouts once in the early 1990s north of Vegas and it was an all day ordeal with about a 7 mile hike in 110 degree heat. Always carried 2 spares after that 👍😎

Was a hoot to be along(sort of) on your maiden voyage. Looking forward to more desert and lake uploads.👍

Is that Pam and Tommy Lee's boat?

Looking forward to more boat videos

That's awesome, you got onto the island. Did you notice the water level marks above the boat? That island was almost covered with water at one time, it's so sad now. You're pretty brave to go exploring out on your own as you do. Kudos! Thanks, for taking us along on your adventures. Stay safe and well.

Awesome content! That water looked deep 🤔 thanks for taking us with you on your adventure 😊

Hey you found the S.S. Minnow ( Gilligans Island you are not an old fart like me (58) , in case you are too young to remember that show, kid. Good stuff, I’m not a boat person, I’m a landlubber, haha. No lakes for me!!

Nice addition. Cool find. Nice transportation setup on the trooper.

Great video!!

Tether that motor with a safety chain. I've lost a motor by not doing that

Love what you do. Henderson is my hometown. I was wondering if the big "B" is still on the mountain behind Basic High School? Up by that "B", are caves, we used to ditch school in. Lol. There was also, a giant Peace Sign, on Sunrise Mountain. My Dad and his friends used to paint the Peace Sign every year and the graduating class used to paint the big B. I don't live there anymore, but, some of my fondest memories are from there. Love the desert. Thank You for taking us with you 😊.

Good times right there! Wow, the water is really clear!

Nice boat setup. Great that you don’t have to bother with a trailer. Good stuff. Excellent video. Thanks! 👍👍👍👊😎

Sweet, thanks for the trip👍🏻 🙋🏼

dorcett model 1960 15 footer, its a catalina . they were made from 1956 to 1964 15 to 22 footers, these boats are collectables now, the 15 footer in mint condition is worth around 12,500.00

Thanks for taking us on your adventure. 😃

It's a Dorset Catalina model made around 1960.

very cool setup, nice video. thanks for sharing

Paul from @FabRats had an episode today about a trip out there in Sept. finding a boat that he is going to retrieve and repair. I can't wait to see how it goes. Have you checked them out? His cousin Merlin also dropped an episode where he dropped a clip at the end and mentioned what they were doing. @Merlin's Old School Garage is from Lake Havasu. If I weren't 29 hours away, I would love to be out there exploring too. I've just started following you so I have a lot to catch up on.

Even though the water level is very low, it seems like a lot when you are in a small boat. That was fun. Thank you William.☮️💖🎶

Hell yeah boat trooper 🚀🚀

Hopefully the heavy snowfall will be some relief for Lake Mead. I just searched Dorsett boats. Those are nice! Take a look at the 1958 and 1962 models. The 1962 looks just like the one you found.

You did a nice set up on the boat and motor mount for the truck. Cool explore today to.

Nice MacGuyvering with the PVC pipe - smart.

07:11 Oh, ya goofball! That's how you silly willies lose boats and become apart of the collection!

The outboard sounds like my Yamaha outboard I turn the choke on first pull and shut choke off instantly it works on first pull

@remote trooper where did you get your boat and what is it? I like it, it’s neat.

Smart way to carry the outboard. Great idea to add a boat point of view, perfect to explore

Tie it up for sure

Thats a late 50s maybe way eary 60 ish Dorset later than My 56 Same general boat Mine has smaller windows by a small Percentage. They are Very rare today.

Nice setup bruh, small enough to carry on the roof😎 Don't get in that lake wen its windy😅

That boat's been gutted so that means it was sunk on purpose. Somebody was too cheap to pay the wrecker bill to have it destroyed. If that boat was sunk by accident there'd still be a motor chairs and all the other stuff in it.

Never seen someone so paranoid about a plastic dingy

Was my understanding the forest service said no more filming in the park

super cool find thats a old boat so sad to see the lake fading away and just a fyi dont get caught filming theyve made it illegal now soo crazy

Yes it is a Dorsett Catalina, I have a 1960 in my driveway, this one looks to be some where in the mid 60's do to the lack of hardware on the bow and stern, the upper windshield is gone or was never installed, they are a cool boat and always gets thumbs up from the guys with the 100,000.00 hot rod boats.

That found boat looks like it would be really beautiful if it was still in good condition. Design of it looked hot.

Cool lines on that boat

W was hoping you would go to the island with the building and whatever is at the top

Nice boat buddy

Cool content and you're soooooo easy in the eyes. Generous in the eyes actually.

boogieing is always better with a burrito, don't blame you for going back for it 😁

Great rig, still have all ur mobility and a boat for on the water trips. I realize ur still getting the set up the way u want, but would suggest u find a way to secure ur gear in the boat. A bonehead boater gets to close could capsize u!

Yeah your pretty smart not tie your only way home up

we just want to know if its going up? thats what most people want water, snow, rain, hale,drizzle

The last remaining unfound baldwin motion boat (of motion camaro performance back in the day), is in lake mead, it's on the cover or on the cover page of an article in national geographic, you can see the big block and the spot where the emblem would have been. You should find that , there are people looking for it ,will pay big $$ for it.

Where did you get the burrito ?

We're getting rain South of you today maybe it's headed your way. EDIT: Looking up your weather you're getting rain, too.

No call numbers or engine looks like it was dumped years ago and sank

Shouldn't need to remove the lanyard to kill your engine.Try pushing in on the red kill switch.

Hope you added extra oil in gas to break in your motor !! Thanks for the video !

I don't know where the Oroville dam water goes when they release it but they will be letting more water out as that lake starts filling more with the new storms in the north of Calif.

..should be titled, " I Found the Excellent Burrito."

you should find someone to restore that boat. That would be cool.

This reminds me of something you would find in fallout

Wet Burrito??

you are funny and you look and talk just like my cousin

Ya live in the stinking dessert! Ya get what ya get! 😑

What the hell are you out there for if your scared if everything

No ooo not the burrito

Got hammered with more rain in LA flooded out big time I'm hoping lake Mead gains northern California getting hammered with snow and rain And Sierra Nevada getting tons of snow lake Mead has to go on a rise here soon

Was a nice boat😂

Be careful bro, you are no longer allowed to film or take still pictures on Lake Mead and post them on Facebook or any social media like KZfaq or anything. They will fine you

So, what is it, like, low tide or what?

Looks like a case of save the motor, sink the boat.

That kind of looks like the Orca from Jaws just put a little corporate on it put a fly bridge on it painted black and red put it back in the water she can floats oh by the way if you want to you can ship that boat to me I live at 28 Morgan Lee Road I really want a little boat like that Poplarville Mississippi

You need a Red Bull man.

Learn the boating laws. You were throwing a wake in a no wake zone. Between the marina and the island is now 5 mph

Man! I hope that burrito 🌯 wasn't from Roberto's.

I would retreive à boat or two and engines too

That's Ben Gardner's boat.

A good battery and trolling motor in its place on the bow and bang... not so screwed when your gas motor malfunctions. Thank me later.. lol

It's a bird it's a plane nope it's none of the above because it's too damn fast!!! I'm talking about the thing flying toward you at 6:24. You can see it if you put it on pause. I catch these religiously in all kinds of videos!!!

Save the boat

Dude you are clearly not a boater.. I've spent my life on the water. Don't be so scared just be careful... got out more.... learn the water your boat your balance... You'll be fine ! It's just water!

Let me know if you find Hoffa!😂

First

That may be a glasspar del mar. 57 or 58. Very cool vintage boat

lol

I am surprised that the lake authorities have not removed debris or possible pollutants from the area, given this time whilst the lake is low. Pollutants will be higher when the lake refills due to the sun on the many fiberglass hulls left behind. Considering the lake is drinking water and fiberglass can cause symptoms like asbestosis. If anyone gets an illness later, sue the authorities. Just a heads up.

I have those Dorset emblems off a similar Dorset,not many of those boats around.

You think the boat will float when water level goes back up

Hopefully it dries up completely. More finds for the scavengers.

It's not glass It's lexan

Looks like a Skagitt

ATTENTION!!!!! Heaven and Hell are real!!! We can not hide our sins from God.. Jesus Christ loves US and He died for our sins. "REPENT and be baptized, everyone of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit". ACTS 2:38

nice set up for the boat

Mattsoffroadrecovery needs this

1958 Dorsett Catalina 17 🛥

Be careful they made it illegal to film on lake mead. If they see this video you may be fined. Look up the laws about. Sin city outdoors spread the word on this topic and why they don't film on it anymore

Maybe you should do some investigation on circular irrigation you should see the pipe work put in those I couldn't understand it I've been around Farm country all my life in irrigation I never seen it at 12 ft pipe need to be put in for irrigation these bastards were put in this water in there so bad guzzling up all the water all that circular irrigation look on the map they kicked out the old farmers and they brought in this underground water system where you can't tell how much they're taking oh I wonder how the lake got empty geez what am I five grow up googly eyes everybody's just googly eyes they don't want to do anything I've been fighting this stuff since I was five years old I'm 65 I give up I hand the Baton to you nothing left to save Fly Fast girl and I'm a pilot don't even fly your ugly Chemtrails Skies

I like that boat. $$$$. Good Times Ahead. 🫡
