Never thought I would see two guys that literally had no idea what they’re doing in a boat. But it was entertaining. The dude just letting the boat float away, then putting it in the water without a paddle or tying off to a dock. That was just crazy.

All you need is some of that Flex Seal! 😂 I’m sure you could order that through Cleet & Squirrels restoration, hell! I’m sure those bois would even help ya fix it with some of that leftover Bondo🤣🤣🤣

I definitely called the Builder and get suggestions from him on how to fix these cracks correctly.

i have a feeling the wood is super dry so it has shrunk. i think having it sit in the water and saturate it would swell and seal itself.

the wood has dried out over time , once the wood has sucked up some moisture again it will swell and should stop leaking , might even want to submerge the boat for a bit

To fix this just fill the inside of the hull with water it will swell shut and stop leaking it’s dried out and is common on wooden boats

You can get epoxy to fill the crack by making a box on the outside of the hull to apply a vacuum to pull the epoxy into the crack from the inside. I have done this a few times on some hard to repair places.

Every boat owner was stressed out watching that guy let your brand new boat slam into that dock 😅

Luke McFadden has a video on this. It's normal when they get taken out of water. The would drys and splits. He uses this white stuff that he hammers in the splits and it fixes the cracks. Pretty easy and genius

I know several years ago I had a friend and his dad had a classic cross craft all wood boat in Arkansas. In the spring after winter, after dewinterizing the motor he would in his driveway put the garden hose in the bottom of the boat with the plug in. Fill it as high as he could without hurting the seating and motor and trans. Let sit. After a day put more water in. Ater the beginning of the week water would leak out for a few days. By the end of the week it would hold all the water. When it stopped loosing water he knew it was ready to use for the summer. Wood just dries and shrinks. Easy and free to try just loose some time if it does not work. Hope that helps.

You should park the trailer in your driveway 😁

Listening to James talk about the fittings shows how much knowledge he really possesses. These guys are way more than we can see on camera.

The old wood mastercraft boats we're known to leak a little when you first put them in the water and the woods swells up a bit .

Parker, you need to seal the crack by pulling a vacuum on the outside of the boat where the crack is. Then, you can use a thin epoxy and the vacuum to wick the glue into the crack from the inside out.

Put the boat back in the water, the wood has shrunk, so call your buddies, meet in the dock, have a bbq and chill, the wood will seal it self, good luck from Norway🎉

It's unbelievable that a Thai-style boat is there, especially with you. It's really cool. I'm rooting for you. I'm from Thailand.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Asking Tye…… I’ve been saying it over on the Cleetus channel. He’s a smart dude with some serious talent

Love this project

Super cool and different dude, love the longtail content.

I wait for you every day, every moment, waiting to watch your videos, bro

Won’t it swell as it sits in water? Thought all wood boats leak until they saturate

So, this is what's going to happen: you are going to have a lot of fun, rip around a bunch, damage it, fix it, rip it, damage it.... And then use this hull to make a plug to lay up a fiberglass long tail. And then you will be good to go! The first fiberglass long tail in history.

ขอให้คุณทำให้สำเร็จ เร็วเร็วนะค่ะเป็นกำลังใจให้ค่ะ

cool guy helping with the hellcat

Bravo🎉 yall quite the combo 😂😂😂

จุดรองรับบนเทรลเลอร์มันดีมาก ทำให้รองรับท้องเรือ👏

i do think with the engine in and more draw youll get more water flow, i also think you should put a scoop on the intake so when youre at speed it forces water into the intake.

BOIS yall almost did WHAT?!!! ALREADY 😂😂😂😂 oml lemme watch this thang

ภูมิปัญญาช่างไทย X เทคนิคช่างอเมริกา = เป็นผลงานชิ้นเยี่ยม 👍

Fill it with water and let it sit until it stops. You're happy when you buy the boat... You are giddy when you sell it. This seems like a lot of time & $$$ to be unique. We went semi-unique with an Allison Grand Sport. Looks good and will do a ton.

Fiberglass and epoxy the whole outer hull like a cedar strip canoe. Thing will be damn near bulletproof

Flexseal. Hands down. You can make a boat from a screen door with that stuff.

I know shipyards in the Netherlands that build wooden boats they put them in the water in a hoist for a couple of days to swell and become watertight. When out of the water for too long they start to leak again.

So cool my buddy Doug could help you out with the car. Awesome job

Hibachi restoration 🦒🐿 555-yer-done....and towing

มันสุดยอดมากๆครับ รอชมนะครับ👍

Those water pickups are designed for forcing water in while the boat is in motion. Look up water pick ups on an RC boat, they are exactly like that. The pump would only be used for when the boat is idle.

ในที่สุดเอาเรือลงน้ำแล้ว ตรวจสอบเรือก่อน เอาเครื่องมาติดสินะ จะรอชมครับ หวังว่าจะซ่อมได้นะครับ

Blackburn I love it!

that’s the way crafted boats works . it needs water to make the wood swell and seal . it came from a way humid country and it’s been out of the water for a while making it dry and contract because it wasn’t in water long enough.

The leak depends on wether the split is opening up more when u stand on the port side if so it means there is a issue letting the hull seperate, like the top and bottom of the side of the hull are pulling apart

Sweet 🤘

Parker the wood is dry!! The boat needs to swell! Good luck!

Nice trailer boat burnouts❤

I know it's not fiberglass, but you should look into vacuum infusing the resin into the crack. It would guarantee little to no air inside giving a better/longer lasting bond

A fiend of mine is from that part of the world brought furniture back to America the last time he traveled. Once here the furniture started splitting and cracking. I know Florida is pretty humid, but you might see some more splits

I know nothing structurally about boats but would the weight of the engine play any part in maybe "pulling" the structure of the boat back into place to stop the leaks?

Hi. Wooden boats always leak when first put in the water, after being ashore and dry for a while. They eventually take up and expand into place and seal. That’s unless there is damage.

Could also do a clear epoxy coating over the exterior of the hull but that takes alot of time and space

ว๊าวมากๆเลย อสูรร้ายได้ลงน้ำแล้ว

Id suggest gouging with drimel and using 3m marine epoxy with carbon mesh

Parker that Hellcat hurts my feelings, I've aways wanted one of those and I can't seem to afford one lol but shit happens that way. But it's still a Hellcat I love it .But your boat kicks ass brother, I can't wait to see your boat done and you flying on the water with your diesel engine that's going to be sweet. Just like when you was driving that other one just like it. Keep up the great work and God Bless you and your family brother 🙏🏼 😊👍

the mems are on point

i follow you and i waiting to see the boat is running for your next vlog

Was the boat bending those fork extensions or have cleet n squirrel bent them on something? ..they were stressing...

Just keep clear coating it 🎉 it'll fill in. Also it just is dried up so need a few more sends! you might get lucky it'll swell up over time!!

Everyone giving suggestions to Parker as if he’s going to be the one doing any of the work are funnier than any of the scripted bits in this video 😂

Clear wrap the boat that should seal it ?

The wood is going to continue have these issues. Best option would be to flip it over sand it and either re epoxy (easiest option). Or laminate another layer of fiberglass on the entire hull. You have to make sure that wood is completely covered even the smallest area not covered composites will 100% ruin the entire hull if water gets underneath the builders epoxy cover and laminate.

I think your inlet for the pump was partially out of the water due to the engine not being in it. It was sucking air alternating waves. Might want to check that before you buy a new pump.

several options...... I would find a place to fully submerge the boat for a two-three day period, bale it out refloat, shop vac and wipe dry.., leak and future leaks fixed. If not flip and support the boat, inside a garage or a shaded area. lay on several layers of water absorbent materials like blankets , sheets and terry towels, soak it with water and keep it wet for a week. Whatever you do Stay away from heat lamps this could cause a lot of harm and cracking in other areas, instead....,the boat would repair itself better if it were placed in a cool garage with several humidifiers going for several weeks. Teak is not affected nor susceptible to water damage or wood rot. If the leak is in a seam, the wood is to dry...,it needs water and nothing else. Take in consideration how long some of those boards are..., if the boat is dry, kept dry and or exposed to the sun, imagine how much warping is going on. Your boat could be now 50 lbs lighter than when it was shipped

Not an expert but would there be a way to vacuum pull the epoxy into the crack?

The next flex seal commercial. Strong enough to seal a long tail ti bout lmao.

Nice editing bro!

Wooden boats need to be emersed in water for a couple of days before use. the wood shrinks when its dry and wont seal. This is old viking ship stuff :) -From a Norwegian

Your hull got dry and shrunk. What you need to do is let it soak and let the wood expand again so that it will seal itself back up. Wood shrinks when in a dry environment like a shipping container with the sun beating on it. The best way would be to remove all the electrical components and fill the bottom of the hull with water. The leaks will eventually stop. I would not use epoxy. Contact the builder. He can tell you what to use that is natural to seal it up. Rubbing the crack Beez wax is what I'm going to guess will seal it up from the outside and still look natural. Teak wood is naturally water resistant. In Thailand, they don't remove the boats from the water long because the wood shrinks. It just has to sit in water to seal itself or fill the bottom with water as I said before. I think in America the Beeswax is called Carnauba Was. Same kind as you put for the surfing board but a natural kind.

Suggestion, I would Get that trailer polished.What looks sick

Ayy the atwood rope shoutout

I would get a vacuum bagging system for epoxy, tape it down on the outside of the boat, vacuum the moisture out , then vacuum the epoxy in from the inside. West systems epoxy is what I would use, that's what we use to build our wood outboard hydroplanes and runabouts.

What if you work on a boat? Best of both worlds

Waiting one day y’all do MS fittings.

You have to put a few bench seats full with foam for floatation so you won't sink.

12:39 so thats why cleetus needed a new super charger lol

do an emulsion of teak sawdust and epoxy resin. add a vacuum formed bag on the outside and have it suction the emulsion through the cracks. wait a few days, repeat the process a couple times, and voila.

Love you🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

This is the worst edited video you have, I love it!😂

Parker is that a Subaru STI hatch in your garage?????? If so I'd love to see an episode of it bro huge Subaru fan I have an 04 STI thats low miles and I love the thing my absolute favorite vehicle lol minus how much they cost to repair 🤣😂🤟

No leaf springs or any kind of give that’s gonna bounce that wood boat everywhere and could be too rough on that wood boat with all the bumps on the road but idk maybe not

รอดูอยู่น่ะคุณหมอ❤❤❤

Killer boat Parker!! Do not short cut the boat repair. It has to be repaired correctly or IT WILL bite you in the ass. I have some experience with old wooden boats. Do it wrong do it twice. You cannot coat the boat with rhino liner it will not stop the water coming in.

Damn those diff bolts look impossibel!!! How the helllll

Was that the spot with the crocodile?

Ya I’d say them boats are made to be in water all the time, I’d say the ol’ Florida sun has sucked out all the moisture, she needs a drink boys😂😂😂

Surprised you didn't have the boat furthur forward on the trailer. Looks like you could have shortend the trailer by 8' if you brought it way forward and let the front over hang a bit.

Wooden boats need water or more accurately need " moisture content" Most likely the "teak" is new growth and susceptible to dry cracking. 3 months in a container and 3 months in a low humidity will dry the wood thoroughly. Leave it covered ouside with 5 gallons of water in the bildge, it will steam the wood back to " normal". Wood floats.....

Normally on a wooden boat the wood pound a cotton material into the crack to make it water tight and when the put the boat in the water and the wood begins to swell it will push the cotton out as the woods seal up..But you boat won't stay in the water so you will have alot of wood swelling and shrinking so it could cause more cracks don't know how well they sealed that wood to protect it from absorbing water you might have to use somekind of marine epoxy to coat the whole boat inside and out to keep it from absorbing water cause when it dries out it will cause more cracks!!

Use the Composite Materials Vacuum Bag technique to draw Fibrous Epoxy into a widened fault area...

You don’t think those water intakes without the engine were just maybe barely touching the water? They are right at the edge of the hull and it had to be balancing more center or even front without the weight back there maybe they weren’t fully submerged.

You could do a thin layer of fiberglass on the outside of the boat.

Wood boat storage is crucial. Up here in Michigan people are using climate controlled spaced or barns with dirt floor for some reason. You can get into big trouble quick on the water if you're not safe. Have a second set of eyes on your work. Pushing some 5200 into the crack would be my solution. That stuff will never go anywhere.

Just dried out from shipping and heat from sitting in the parking lot. Grind out the crack mix up some west system with silica filler to a nice peanut butter consistency and drive it in the crack. Sand smooth and paint over with more varnish or just epoxy. There are tons of old wood race boats still out there, repairs are not rocket science.

You may connect the suction hose to shut off.

สุดยอดเลย พี่ชาย🇹🇭

Start by plugging 1 of your intakes up ,you are getting air in one side

I'm guessing the wood will self seal once the boat hydrates

When you have a hellcat, but jeep IS life😂😂

The issue with the cracking of the wood has to do with the moisture level. In SE Asia they have much higher moisture content. So if they wood is equalized to that amount of moisture, then it works there. When it is brought over to a dryer area, the wood can crack because it is drying out. We used to have the issue when I worked for a flooring company. You had to make sure that the wood was dried to the correct amount for use in the US. If they did not do that, and it was just the dryness that they have in SE Asia, when you installed it in the US, it would dry out and cause cracking, ruining the floor.

Is that Cleetus Raptor R or yours Parker?
