it’s rare as hell to see this guy upload

Great restoration. You're obviously a guy that knows what he's doing.

no fancy shop, basic tools, great work ethic and attention to detail. Outstanding Job!!

Beautiful job by a VERY talented young man who pays attention to DETAILS!!!

Good to see you back at it and what a superb job on that boat! Totally a professional job!

This dude goes the extra mile every time. He makes it look so easy and so simple in one go! Just gel-coating an old fiberglass boat makes it look 10x better!

I don't see many uploads from you lately but please know that I've really appreciated the content that you produce, it really is first class and so helpful!

I rarely comment but your work is absolutely amazing. I wish I had the skills you do. I truly enjoy your videos. Thank you.

Glad to have you back! You are without a doubt the best KZfaqr with boat restorations! You’ve actually inspired me to start restoring 2 of my dad’s boats! Enjoyed the shenanigans in this video and cruising around the marina checking out boats was cool and new.

Honestly blown away by these videos. Your skill and craftsmanship really shine at the end when these get on the water again after years of sitting idle in someone's back yard or in this case a town impound lot. Best boat restoration channel on KZfaq and its not even close.

That was such an outstanding transformation. Just a great job all around.👍🏻

It was great to see such a sad little boat come back to life and be happy and shiny, ready for a new life and a new owner. Good job boat guy .

I have a huge huge amount of respect and admiration for the work, and expertise you showed during this project. The finished product shows the results of you're determination to do it right, the first time. Massive thumbs up to you ... Anyone who buys a boat from you should watch this video first. Really, I can't say enough! 👍👍👍👌👌👌 Rick

Government: “Ha ha there’s been a “mixup”, we’ll be taking it back now”😂

Great job bringing the sea pro back to life. I like how the boats you choose still have good gel coat and decent motors and trailers. That boat's got a lot of good years left in her!

A proper job ,great watch,the sunset at the end .......... .👏10/10 ✔

These are your best videos, your editing game has gotten tight! I would love to see a cost, hours, sale price breakdown at the end. Keep making great videos.

Great video! My father passed away from COVID last September and he has this same exact boat except it has a 90 hp Mercury. My mother didn't know what to do with the boat. This really gives me a great start to get his eventually restored back to a condition like this. Thank you again for the great videos you provide! I'm going to Marco Island FL at the end of the month. See you on the water!

Anything boat or motor repair is always great to see. Would love to see a full detailed outboard overhaul even if its a two parter. We always look forward to your videos, anything marine

First time I've seen him in quite a while. He's very knowledgeable and I would not be scared to allow him to work on my boat. I feel like if he thought it was out of his league he would not try to cheat you and do a crappy job. Glad to see he has an actual tractor now. The last video I seen he was using an old lawn mower trying to move his boats around. Wish he would give us a ball park cost of doing a boat like that. I had a guy give me a 1979 239 mako center console. The engine sit under the console. After talking to a couple people my wife said it was too much to do this too. I now regret letting her convince me to get rid of it.

Man you were missed I always check for new content and today prayers were heard. Amazing transformation as usual, hope to see more of your work soon.

I've watched several of your boat fix-ups, and enjoyed every one, though I am land-locked, elderly, and not a boat person. I just appreciate the way you work on your project boats and usually, or I should say always, come out with a great result, and make a bit of money for your trouble when you sell. One thing - those center-consoles are very popular in Florida, so much so that I am surprised that an old dirty boat goes for as much as it did - $5900 including taxes and auction fees? I would have guessed more like $2500, but I guess a 90 hp engine alone costs more than $5900.

The skill that went into restoring this boat is second to none! Amazing results! That's my dream boat! New owner should be proud!

This is the content we need wayyyy more of! Very well done. Great looking boat, great video! Keep it up.

It's been a while man..Great Job as always. Hope to see more videos soon.

You make it look so easy. I bought a used Blue Wave 2400 Pure Bay that looked like it was in a hurricane or something. It's been 5 weeks of working on it nonstop and I feel like I'm barely getting anywhere. It's not even a very old boat but it looks old at the moment. Hopefully, before summer is over I'll catch a fish on it. Thanks for the inspiration, just got to keep at it.

VERY impressive work. That boat now looks BETTER than new, and it really moves on that Yamaha 90!

Really enjoyed the video, so satisfying to bring a tired old boat back to it's full potential and make it so awesome, it was a labor of love for you and I felt the joy.

Awesome video great job on this cool boat

Absolutely LOVE this man!!! I'm a huge fan of your craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Love your stuff. Glad to see a new video. Little tip... drill your hole next to the line next time when cutting your holes. No need to put it in the middle. You can just start right at the line.

What an awesome transformation! Everything so tastefully done, from the wheels to the instruments to LEDs. Great job! So satisfying to watch.

That is crazy how well you transformed that old looking boat into something that looks brand new.

That ride back tho...wow. Beautiful. Love these vids man, please do more!

Excellent video. From what looked junky, you turned it into a brand new looking boat with extras. Having your knowledge and skill certainly helped, but a great restoration.

I am not a mechanic but i can really see devotion in this man. Great job!

Every one of us has seen a grimy used boat for sale in ads or on the side of the road and we always pass it up. In my case it's because I simply don't have the know-how to do what this guy does. This guy is living the dream. Resurrecting boats like this must feel really good at the end of the day.

Super impressive job! I particularly like the gray interior deck paint for the contrast!

Have been watching from the early years. Just amazing how better you have become restoring these boats. Well done.

You did a wonderful job. If I might suggest, move your winch mast forward a tad so that you can move the hull forward to achieve some bunk(s) under your transom. Won't require much and will maximize transom support. Thanks for a great video.

Let's go! Crazy transformation. There's not a detail you don't skip over either. On the boat side or the quality of the video. 27 minutes of well enjoyed boat entertainment. Keep uploading :)

I had a boat similar to this many years ago. You are making me want to get another boat. Great job on the restoration!

love that I found your channel. I saved a 74 Baja from the earth beginning of this summer and you are an inspiration!

Beautiful little project. Wish I could have one boat like that 🥲

Beautiful Job as always ! You have what most all of us lack which is vision . Love the grey and white on the deck . The radio and cooler addition . 10/10 .

Bro you make it look easy. I have a boat this size Yam 90. That’s a 12 - 15k boat in my area current market. Beautiful results and edit.

Great video, outstanding job rebuilding everything. Thank you for taking us along.

Great work on the boat and the video editing. Love seeing you cruise the areas I boat weekly.

Glad to see another boat Restore, I was starting to miss your content. Keep'em coming and I'll keep watching them twice (first time skipping the commercials and a second time to let all them run thru)

Been waiting for a new vid looks like a good restore keep up the good work!

Beautiful job, you have a great eye for detail. Thanks for taking us along.

That Boat Guy, You DO TREMENDOUS work !!!!! I cannot believe how nice this thing turned out. Great job....

Always a pleasure to see your work! You are the opposite of clickbait. Happy to see you include the price and everything at the beginning of the video. Nobody on social media does this as meticulously as you do. Congratulations on another successful transformation. Can't wait to see the next one. Someone is going to get a fine runabout once you sell this baby. Perfect for snapper and grouper fishing near the skyway and along the shipping channel. Only info you didn't include was how long this project took and what your all in budget finally was. Enjoy the rest of the Summer bruh!😎

Great to see you back! Love seeing the transformation. Can't wait to see the next one.

I did the same thing to a 26 years old Century 1860. The similarities are incredible! Now I want to do the gray deck paint! Thank you for the inspiration!

We love your channel keep the outboard motor and boat refurbishing going

This channel is the definition of quality over quantity. Love these restorations!

Great video. Love your restorations but your drone videos are AWESOME! those sunset shots just make me want to be on the water. Keep it up!

I just found this. you should definitely make more videos about boat repairs (in addition to the restorations), this is really good content. Very cool watching a video from a guy who can renovate the entire thing solo.

Great job on cleaning the boat up a very professional job, and you can't beat a Yamaha 90 I bought one of the first that was in the Key's. Stay safe out there!

awesome job on that restoration! glad to see you back I enjoy watching your videos, keep them coming!

Very very nice to see you back making videos and I have to say this was probably my most favorite video so far way to come back and make an entrance I sincerely hope to see more videos from you soon once again keep up the awesome work

Another great vid and anogher excellent restoration, thanks for sharing. I wouldn't mind seeing all restauration aspects more detailed.

You make that look so EASY!! Meanwhile I’m sitting on a Grady White restoration I haven’t touched in 8 months because I got overwhelmed.

Do you name all the boats you redo? You should give us an annual update on what your cost breakdowns were and the profits you made. Love your videos

Make videos man, learning a lot about outboards! We all enjoy!

Very inspirational! Amazing transformation.

Once again, he kills it and makes it look so damn easy. Well done!

Another amazing restoration! You sir are extremely good at what you do. Beautiful quality work

Love your videos! The work you do on these boats is amazing, and you edit your clips so that the viewer gets the perfect rush of "instant gratification."

Nice to see a new video 😁👍 That boat turned out superb. Looking soooo good. Wish it were mine. And Yamaha never disappoint, seems it hit some good speeds 😊👍

Dude, really enjoy your videos and hope you get back to posting them again soon! Hope all is well.

Looks awsome I wish I could find one

I like these types of videos, I especially like when you get into technical tidbits on how to fix individual parts, maybe even expand on sharing your knowledge of repairs.

Dang! How did I miss this? 🙌🔥🔥 good to see you back

Well there goes 27 minutes of my life that I will never get back. I'm not even a boat guy but loved every minute of it! Just absolutely stunning. Love the gray floor contrast. The cooler and seat combo is spot on. Very impressed with the disection of the engine and drive train. You obviously have done this before. Thoughts about what you have in it and what it would sell for? Now before your next restoration, clean up your back yard! Btw, I subscribed.

Love the videos and watching the restores! Keep em coming man! I learn so much about boats from watching you! You do a great job!

The great thing about that boat guy is his expertise with outboards. He can get anything to run. I could deal with the boat but engine issues would kill me. I'd probably end up at a dealer and you know what that means. BOAT - Break Out Another Thousand.

Nice to see you're back! Can't wait for your next post...always a pleasure watching what you've accomplished!

Dude I love it when I see you’ve uploaded a video. You’re so awesome at restorations. Like to see more content. Great job!

Nicely done!! It looks fantastic for its age now that you've put the work in! You could for sure make money on it if you wanted to re-sell but it would be a hard one to let go. CHEERS!!

The way you restore these boats is a credit to you and your skill ,congratulations.

So cool that you take such pride in your work. Thanks for taking me along.

i would be very interested in the future if you could also list how many hours you put into a boat and how much money you spent on parts :) would be interesting to see in what time you increased the value of the boat by how much. :)

You do such good resto videos man, appreciate your efforts!

Bro I ain't gonna lie, from jump dirty boat I seen threw it. Glad you saved it! Honestly you do boat revivals kinda how I like it, it's a fight and in this fight it's us against an unknown boat revival and we just don't loose.

Been a while since you have uploaded. I hope you are doing ok. If you have moved on, you do you. Thanks for all of the great videos.

yessssss, he is back

I grew up in south St. Pete, O’Neils’ daughters were my babysitters 😂

You do some of the most amazing work on boats I’ve ever seen. You also make it look so easy. Keep up the awesome work!!

Very nice! What an awesome find. Well done video. Thanks for sharing with us.

Wicked looking boat dude I would love to have something like that here in the uk, you've made a superb job as usual 👏 👌 missed your vids man were you been?

Nice boat! Did you ever figure out what that was connected to the side of the boat? No weak spots on the floor? Enjoyed the video.

I've been waiting for a new video from you. Great job on that boat, man!. Look forward to seeing some more soon! Thanks

Dude... you just inspired me to go this route for my first boat. I used to be a mechanic, then started working on aircraft about 15 years ago, and now fabricate wiring harness for aircraft/install them. I feel like all of my life skills have culminated into the ability to do something like this without stressing out one bit! lol I was looking at getting something like a new skiff until the inflation thing happened and prices jacked to $30k dollars or more. That price for me would also require a loan... which would also add in an exorbinate interest rate now. $4.5k plus new items should be much more friendly to the savings account. No loan required. How much did the repairs costs set you back since you did the work yourself?

Awesome video! Would be really cool to see a breakdown afterwards, how many hours and parts went into it? PS: It could use some cupholders :)

Amazing shots, especially the drone shots. Really captures the zen of cruising on the water. There is just something else about the freedom of open water and honestly it doesn't matter what gets you there. It could be something tuned up fresh of the line, a rebuild that gives a watercraft a second life in glamour, or something old but gold (rocking an '83 Lund Mr Pike and couldn't be happier). Whatever gets you there is special and your own.

The trim seal replacement was an excellent lesson. Thank you sir. I appreciate you sharing your skills knowledge and experience.

man this is legit. ive been binge watching your vids for the last couple days. if i may ask, how long does it take to do a flip like this? waiting on parts and such.. the work you do on these things seems like quality and class. ive been thinking about restoring my grandpas old fishing boat but all i know is engine.. nothing related to boat.

Bro need to upload again 😢😂
