You legends! What would you like to see me to first with the boat? 🏴‍☠️🛥

HI Mate, I would like to thank you for all your boat restauration videos, I just bought a small 19ft boat myself last week and as a new boat owner your videos helped me lots especially the wiring and hook ups. Thanks again

Brilliant. You must be well chuffed Captain.

Awesome to see it on the water! Free diving wrecks? Merisia will certainly be within reach and there's a couple of others along the coast, look forward to seeing them.

So good to see her out on the water, what a journey so far....looking forward to see what comes next and maybe a few shark sightings, keep it up dude.

Lovely boat, fantastic scenery, I hope you don't bump into any great whites as you may need a bigger boat. Couldn't resist that . Happy boating.

Very enjoyable series!

Go find that Great White! 👍🙏

Well done your a legend. I want you to enjoy it!!

Great to see the boat finally in the water and I cant wait to see what you find at sea , good luck 🦈🇬🇧

This channel is so underrated, mate I love these videos!

Wonderful you should go shark spotting, watching all the work you have done and everything would make you wanna cry seeing you on the sea with the boat

A lot to learn! But looks as though its just a question of pickings things up as you go along. Buy the ol sea dogs a few drinks😉. A mine of info. (like experienced riders👍).

Hi there been keeping an eye on your channel for awhile awesome stuff mate 👍 the steering cable should be an easy fix, if you unbolt the steering cable from the steering helm. It’s just a locating bolt to lock the cable in, once removed wind the steering cable out of the helm. There should a cable guard coming out of the other side of the helm. Basically swap the steering cable and the cable guard around. Wind the cable in to the helm and bolt it all up. Make sure you try to pull the steering cable out to make sure the locating bolt has secured the steering cable. I’m a fan of your channel and a wildlife fan in general and used to work as a marine engineer on the Isle of Wight. If I can help with any advice please ask. Good luck on your adventures 👍👍

Looking good 👍

So you ended up with "Tiller Steering"‼️😂🤣

Chuffed you've uploaded again, always look forward to these videos, been waiting to see more of the boat

Great boats the warriors. I had a 165 and a 150 loved them both. It looks like your tranducer is very close to your motor mate . Looked like a bit of interferance on your screen mate. Good job pal . Clean your wash well out i got ocd hahaha. Il come and check when im next over 👍🏻🤣

thinking of moving back to the UK, I am in Sweden at the mo. Born and bred in Fleetwood .Man seems ideal. My son lives in New Zealand and my daughters are in the lake district, my ancestors are from Dublin.

Really happy for you getting her on the water. Plenty of adventures to follow. Looking forward to future videos

All the hard work done, now time to enjoy it and find them sharks.👍👍

Brilliant

Looking good dude 👍

Cracking video, really looking forward to the next one 👌

maybe go see the seals aka the sharks food so you can show how many the is

Thanks for sharing your journey with us restoring Charlie bouy

Nice set up there mate hope you enjoy your fist boat can’t beat it

Great to see her on the water pal 👊

That's mega mate. Congrats on her first trip im sure you'll be out on it as much as you can now :)

Came across your channel the other day ,,,,, great stuff thinking of buying something similar myself, just for adventures, I don't fish but always loved boats, yhing is I live in Telford miles from the coast, but I d get there as much as possible lol

I popped past the harbour today (Thursday) and spotted Charlie Buoy in the water, tide was in and she was still floating 😀. She's looking well, nice and shiney :-) Nice video of her maiden voyage - here's to lots of fun and adventures in the future *raises a glass of low alcohol wine. Looking forward to you catching your first fish ;-)

Great video, congratulations on you're launch skipper, the boat looks great well done on all your work, looking forward to more underwater adventure's.

Epic lad!

Really enjoyed those 7 Project Boat episodes 👍...Have subscribed and can’t wait for more ! The Wirral Uk ...just across the Irish Sea from you 👍🌍😊🐟🌎

Niiiiiiice! Well done on getting it out on the water. It looks awesome 👏🏻

Nice Boat! Love this series. New Sub 🤙🏻

Great stuff! 👌🏼

In case my last post went into your junk notifications, have a look there :)

👍

Great project pal, looks mint.....should we now call you Captain Islander ?.

might be early days yet but looking forward to the shark chasing

excellent videos so far mate, this is perfect research for me as I'm planning to do exactly the same when I semi retire to wales in 5 years, great insight into the mooring setup. * will you take it out the water in winter ? * bit rude I know, but what sort of costs are we talking for boat & trailer, then the parts then mooring PA ? (I understand if you don't want to answer this) * have you done any day skipper, radio courses (think you mentioned you may have done radio some time back) etc * be interested in seeing the full process of launch & return mate keep up the good work

just to save you any future grief, the grey fuel line has a plastic inner tube which breaks down with ethanol fuel if you leave it with fuel in it, trust me I have had major carb blockages until I replaced with ethanol resistant fuel line, not sure what the speed of break up with occasional use and emptying the line every time after use, but the grey fuel line is bad news, just thought I would let you know.

Farewell and adieu to you fair Spanish ladies

You 42 miles from here I can see isle man from my lounge window

Well done Matt on getting the boat ready. Great maiden voyage. I’m no boat expert but the back-to-front steering did make me snigger! What sort of length of trips are you thinking of doing? Great vid mate. Ben 👍

Did you pick your new 4 stroke engin ??? Great vid by the way . Love the boat !!

Nice job bud I have a 150 love I on Anglesey north wales where are you based many thanks john

Do your bow shackles not corrode really quickly in the salt water? Stainless steel ones or non-rated ones might be better, provided you aren't doing any lifting and only for mooring

Hi what's your first name by the way? Wish I could go out on the boat with you. :) love watching your vids. Also, what do you think this one is - a white shark or basking? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/na2nbMp4qK3Od5c.html

I thought you might like to know - A video in French is in the link. - "A great white shark is currently swimming off the Magdalen Islands. Disaster scenario worthy of Jaws? Or quite normal and rather frequent event? We talk about it with the scientific director of the St. Lawrence Shark Observatory, Jeffrey Gallant, who has observed sharks for more than 20 years." www.salutbonjour.ca/2022/07/26/ces-jours-ci-un-grand-requin-blanc-se-permet-une-petite-saucette-aux-iles-de-la-madeleine.
