Thanks bro I appreciate it! And the trolling motor flip makes sense especially on a boat your size.. I would even try it on mine but I can’t or my windshield wouldn’t open all the way.. glad you liked the video.. can’t wait to knock out the next project!

@@ReelLifeFisherman I'll see ya on a few weeks buddy.. off striper fishing for my bday! Don't work to hard today sir!

It’s been a few years. Still got the boat?

Awesome congratulations on buying the boat! It is a lot of work but worth it! Makes it look brand new again! Thanks for watching!

Jason Oleson thanks! I really appreciate you watching the channel! They actually just called me back into the shop this week.. guess we’re essential now ! 🤣 lol hopefully everything can go back to some kind of normal soon! Hope you stay well through all this!

Awesome glad it helped! Thanks for watching and commenting.. I appreciate it! Have any questions ask anytime!

Those are a good all around boats! I’d actually like to have one myself.. a friend of mine has one.. I had a super guide v16 sc before I bought my thunder jet and I wished I would have bought the laker instead.. they are the same hull pretty much.. well if have any questions about it don’t hesitate to ask.. thanks for watching

Awesome glad you liked the video and found it helpful! Thanks for watching and commenting.. let me know if you have any questions

Hector M Dardon thanks man! I appreciate it.. and thanks for watching!

Awesome! Glad the video was helpful! That’s why we make the videos so guys can see what they are in for beforehand. Then decide if it’s worth paying someone or doing it yourself! I’ll pass the kudos on to my brother in law who does my camera work and editing! Thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it!

Awesome glad the video was helpful! Thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it!

Awesome! It’s worth the effort if you have the time! Thanks for watching! And let me know if you have any questions..

Thanks I appreciate it! It’s a awesome upgrade and update to older boats.. it is definitely a bigger job .. so it’s something a lot of shops don’t like to do.. or if so.. they will definitely charge you for it! Thanks for watching and commenting

Nomad thanks I appreciate you watching and commenting! I really hope they get this under control soon.. and i hope it doesn’t get any worse.. they have had me comeback to work.. but no customers are allowed in the shop.. and the bass pro shops part is still closed.. we are just staying put at home and barely leave the house for supplies if absolutely necessary.. hope you stay safe and healthy! This has been one crazy year.. especially for you with the fires on top of everything! Hopefully they don’t put a full ban on fishing.. I have not been out in a long time! but it looks like they just might.. they have most boat ramps closed already..

Yes definitely want to do it inside or in a cooler time of year.. and worth it to save money for sure.. thanks for watching and commenting

Thank very much! Glad you like the channel glad it helps people out..

Just make sure to get vinyl with some backing it will stick and hold much better.. and use some good adhesive glue.. thanks for watching and let me know if you have any questions..

@@ReelLifeFisherman Great video. In one of your comments you posted the link to the vinyl that you bought on Amazon. So in hindsight, you would have chosen a different vinyl with a felt backing? Thanks again.

Thanks I appreciate it! Thanks for watching and commenting

Scott Oleson thank you! All is good they just opened my shop back up .. but no customers are allowed in.. drop offs and pick ups only.. but at least I’m back at work.. hopefully they get this thing under control soon and we can go back to fishing and life as normal soon! It is sturgeon time! And time I start hitting the bay for halibut too! Thanks for watching and commenting.. I appreciate it! Tight lines 🎣

Definitely going to not used the fake Elmer’s glue. Going to go purchase a bunch of 3m spray adhesive. Thanks for the tip.

Yeah the glue we use from the factory is more like the 3M .. I would definitely use that.. I have a spot to fix on my buddies boat now it came up on the front deck.. and I will just be using the 3M .. I work at a boat shop and do vinyl and carpet jobs from time to time.. but we sublet a lot of the work out due to how time consuming it can be ! Thanks for watching and glad you found the video helpful..

Thank you glad you liked the video! So they both have their advantages.. vinyl is easier to clean, stays looking new way longer.. but can be slippery when wet without the right footwear.. and feel much hotter to your barefoot.. not that you should be barefoot on a fishing boat really.. lol. Carpet makes compartment lids fit better and is softer to walk on etc.. it really depends on the style of boat and fishing you do.. some boats it’s better to do carpet on the front and rear decks and vinyl on the floor.. thanks again for watching!

Thanks glad you liked it! It’s not all that bad.. just takes time..

Thanks! Appreciate that! Yeah it can get nasty quick if you’re not careful.. thanks for watching

Thanks I appreciate it! Glad the video helped! Thanks for watching and commenting!

Johnny Andreasen thanks I appreciate it! Thanks for watching..

Thanks I appreciate that! I really hope they don’t I haven’t gone out in forever.. mostly my fault for being too busy before all this.. and I’ve been staying at home because that is what they have been saying to do.. but I’m about over that now! Lol..They have called me back in to work but no customers are allowed in the shop.. so I guess I’m glad I’m not at home all day anymore! thanks for watching the channel and hopefully things go back to normal! Sooner rather than later! Tight lines 🎣

Thanks! I appreciate it! Glad you liked the video and thanks for watching.. and commenting..

And hopefully you have or will get a new boat soon and some of my other videos will help you in the future.. sorry i was 5 years late to the KZfaq thing.. lol thanks again and tight lines!

Yeah it’s always nice when you’re putting everything back together! Glad you liked the video and thanks for watching and commenting!

reece adams thanks I really appreciate you watching and commenting! Hope everything is going good for you right now during these weird times ..

Awesome! It turned out great! Absolutely you will have to let me know when your back in town!

@@ReelLifeFisherman Yeah man, due to the covid we canceled our May plans for Cali but we are going to shoot for August! Hopefully we can fish together then!

Thanks ! I would make sure whatever vinyl you buy .. make sure it has the felt backing.. it really helps to hold to the glue..

@@ReelLifeFisherman I started with vinyl then I went to EVA design now I’ve been looking at vinyl all night. I think I’m going with infinity tundra it has a 10 year warranty and specifically made for our type of boats. I have a Crestliner 19’6 Sportfish

It’s a lot of work.. but definitely worth it.. thanks for watching and commenting!

The Piscatorian thanks man! it all depends where you get it.. but you order it by the foot just make sure the roll is wide enough.. and the 3m glues holds and sticks fast .. thanks for watching !

Thanks! I’m glad you like the video! I would imagine it would be fine to do on a glass boat also.. I have never done a glass boat floor.. some of the older ones had carpet on a plywood deck laid on stringers .. most glass boats I deal with are all glass .. or use snap in flooring.. if it’s glass under your carpet you can use acetone or paint stripper to loosen the glue and. Scrape it off.. I will try to re - use the same holes unless they are stripped out.. thanksfor watching .. let me know if you have any questions

That’s awesome! Glad you liked the video hope it helps you out! Thanks for watching and commenting!

It does get kinda slippery when wet.. that is a drawback of vinyl.. thanks for watching!

I might think about some diamond plate or possibly some seadek.. you could Bed liner spray the diamond plate also they have many different colors..if you didn’t want it shiny.. let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for watching the channel

We use the 3m for small vinyl repairs at my shop.. what glue they send us from the tracker factory I’m not sure .. it’s in a pint with no markings.. but we pour it into the hvlp spray gun and it sprays just like the 3M.. but definitely get vinyl with backing.. I didn’t realize this vinyl had none.. the foam around the bow was to take up the room and any unevenness in the cut hidden buy the carpet.. it is not always necessary .. thanks for watching ..let me know if you have any questions.. and good luck with your project!

Thank you I appreciate it! And thanks for watching..

Hey thanks! Yeah if your deck is bolted down you will have to do it that way.. depending on how much vinyl you’re doing.. I would say about 5 cans to start.. only need to spray the deck side with the glue.. and for his boat with the sides and seat box and stuff .. we ordered 30’ at the width of the roll.. better to have too much just in case there is a mistake.. or need it for repairs down the road.. we had plenty left over though.. thanks for watching.. and let me know if you have any questions anytime..

Well you want to make sure you get marine grade plywood.. then it’s already treated and will withstand all the moisture much better. The vinyl will protect it some but it will still get moisture. Thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it!

I would recommend testing out a small section with the glue and see .. then 3m will most likely be better on the aluminum.. cutting circles is one thing wrapping them without the edge looking messy is hard.. just make a lot of relief cuts and cut off any over lapping ones in the back side .. thanks for watching and me know if you have any questions..

Thanks glad you liked the video! I would only use marine grade plywood it’s all we use.. and it’s rated for the marine environment.. and you won’t have to epoxy anything.. it would be the right way to do it.. let me know if you have any questions.. the wood is more expensive.. but it’s always better to do it right the first time.. thanks for watching and commenting..

Thanks!! Thanks for watching and commenting

Thanks I appreciate it! No I didn’t see any mold or rot on his boat.. mold I would let dry out and clean.. rot the wood should be replaced. Thanks for watching!

All vinyl boats have exposed screws .. I wouldn’t hide them under the vinyl in case you have pull it up again for any reason.. you can use oval head screws and they sink in a bit and sit flush.. if you don’t like the pan heads.. thanks for watching let me know if you have any questions about it..

You should always pull all the old stuff off and clean the glue off and put the new on.. if you don’t have to take much off to pull the deck off and if the deck isn’t too big of a piece.. it shouldn’t be that hard.. let me know if you have any questions about anything.. thanks for watching the video.. sorry I just found your comment..

It’s not necessary to spray both sides you just need a good layer on the boat decking and lay the vinyl down and smooth it out pressing down as you go.. thanks for watching

In a boat like mine I would definitely do something like that! Maybe not in this guys boat.. thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it..

Thanks! So you can get it on amazon.. but like I’ve told other people in the comments.. make sure you get vinyl with backing material.. it helps stick and hold better then the vinyl with out it.. thanks for watching and commenting..

Thanks I appreciate it! Thanks for watching and commenting!

Thank you I appreciate it! Thanks for watching the video!

Nautolex is a good Material and I imagine their adhesive is too.. with vinyl flooring just make sure it has the backing material.. it helps the glue stick and hold.. the vinyl in this video had none. Didn’t realize that when we picked it out on Amazon.. the thicker the vinyl the longer it will last.. but the harder it is too work with.. thanks for watching the video! Let me know if you have any questions ..

I am going to pick one from allvinylfabrics.com it has felt backing Ordered two samples, 34 mil and 80 mil to see what to go with. Planning to replace the plywood. Thinking of getting toughest sealer home depot or lowes has, and apply extra coats on the plywood. At the same time it has to be something that will work with adhesive. I have plain plywood, and laminated again st water rot plywood May be just using laminated is all I need. Lamination is on one side of the plywood though. Might still use sealer on the other side to stave off rotting. That lamination is quite thick, makes that plywood real heavy, that's where the minus is. My boat is Crestliner fish hawk, so the center piece of plywood fir sure is to be laminated that one piece rots the most The funny thing is... I am from Sacramento too! Lol

I would only use marine grade plywood.. it isn’t cheap but what wood is anymore! Lol that’s awesome! I’m sure we will run into each other sometime! I work in the shop at bass pro in rocklin! Stop in and say hi sometime!

My buddy I did the job for .. ordered it on Amazon. But make sure you get it with backing on it.. it will stick much better.. let me know if you have any questions! And yes go Cats! I’m ready for baseball!

Glad you liked it! And thanks for watching!

The guy ordered it on Amazon. But like I mentioned in the video make sure it has backing it helps it stick much better. Thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it! Glad the video was helpful.

He likes it still.. but in a bass boat it can be slippery so if it gets wet your footing isn’t that good.. also it’s not a cushion under your foot like carpet.. and can get hot in the sun.. personally on a bass boat I would stick with carpet honestly.. the only advantage of vinyl in a bass boat is it cleans easier and would last longer.. but not worth it in my opinion.. thanks for watching the channel.. and commenting.. let me know if you have any questions..
