i love old aluminum boats
It's made by snap on, but it broke or I don't really like it. Lol. Stay away from the tool truck, especially if you are new. Overpriced and they break, sink and get lost just like the rest.
I can agree to an extent, you get what you pay for. Tool trucks in general you're paying for the service. Not having to ship something out or drive to the store every time a tool breaks is worth the extra money! If you're just starting out harbor freight and amazon is the way to go!
Where did you get the larger diameter coiled hose? My Helix 5 has a plug that will barely fit through 5/8" inside diameter. I've got it all mounted up and wired except for the hose. Any help is appreciated.
I got it off amazon, cornfield crappie sells it and i highly recommend getting it from them. Looks a lot cleaner and takes the pain out of having to cut it yourself.
What brand compression tester do you use?
I want mine like this can you build it for me?
Yes Sir!
What about fishing outside in the rain? Bottom on the cooler is going to load up with water
you are 100% correct. I'm sure you can drill some holes in the bottom... the unit, battery, and black box can all get wet without being damaged.
Å
Do you have other videos of working on Crestliners? Or more from this job you could please share with me? It looks like you may have more clips? Also.. how did you remove the two top back corners? Cut them out? Re weld?
I do not have any more video footage of the job, i did not have to cut any of the boat to do the job. You will have to remove some of the foam to get to the hidden nuts/bolts.
What is the size of the box? Cooler?
When you were testing the engine you were able to rev it in the ice chest without it going into gear
So can I ask you, how did you bypass the gear linkage on your throttle
Hey Kirk, I believe we had the prop off in this video. I do know most of these models have a throttle only button on the side of the engine beside the shifter.
well this is the 3rd video of transom repair where i was told it is a pain in the butt, you actually made it look not too bad thanks for the work and tips
These things are high powered! I use them for trimming tree limbs and unwanted saplings. They kick like hell so you better have a good stance.
this gave me a good laugh, very accurate description of the loads.
Dude, we got a crestliner commander. I’ve seen a lot of crestliner transom replace videos on TH-cam. I’m scared now. Hopefully mines doesn’t rot anytime soon. Boats barely used, we are second owner and first owner barely used it, I checked the wood from underneath the bilge area before buying and wood looks good, but who knows about the middle. I rocked the engine like crazy and no give, so we bought the boat, but these videos for me scared now. 😢😢
If the boat is stored inside, you shouldn't have any issues. The Crestliners I have seen with transom issues are usually kept outside or have holes in the transom that are not sealed properly causing water to get into wood over time leading to a rotten transom.
Hey man I need something similar done to my crest liner. How much would you charge to do it? Mine is a crest liner 2050 sport fish. I’m 2 hours from you but I could make the drive.
We are officially starting to get caught up with projects at the shop if you wanted to get yours done.
How did you reinforce for the transom
We tied the transom into the side walls and the stringers. Used a very thick piece of aluminum to thru bolt pontoon transom on.
What plywood and thickness did you end up using? About to do this on a fish hawk
I do not remember the size of the plywood; we used marine grade plywood. wish i would have written it in the description when it was fresh on my mind!
😂😂😂 the 1/4 snap on set. I started my apprenticeship in this trade and everyone swears by it
Its hard to loose tools when they cost that much hahaha. I hope you stay in the industry we need more good techs to learn the trade!
For edges first thing you want to do is round your corners. Fiberglass does not like 90 degree angles. 2ndly i wouldve gone csm/knytex (1708) alternating, and finish with csm ripped on edges for a nice feather in/minimal sanding. Also dont mix glass too too hot because itll make the resin way too brittle and be more prone to cracking
I learned more from you comment then i did in every video I watched on how to do it! thank you for taking the time to give me feedback, means a lot!
@Public Water Marine no worries. I havent been doing big glassing stuff over the years until now, on my own boat. Done all sorts of stuff with fiberglass though. The chopstrand base/first layer has the best wetout/cling. So i always start with csm, usually 1.5oz since the .75 oz is like tissue paper thin almost. I think ill hand rip down the .75 and use it for first tabbing layer. My preference no matter what is start and finish with chop strand. Ive experimented with 1708 as a base bond on a flat surface, but the csm binds better initially. My goto is always start and finish with chopstrand. As i stated with the ripped of the chopstrand, it feathers in amazingly well so that your sanding work is minimal.
@@etothelij Doing a small glass job at the shop now. I will deff be taking your advice! you had me at minimal sanding!
I just take the glove box out and you can reach right in. Good video
Next time it comes in for a service i will check to see what's involved to do it that way! always looking for easier hacks!
What size screen is that?
10 inch
I've got a 12, probably won't work, huh?
@@GG-dx3bq if you got a bigger cooler it would!
Got mine finished, 12 inch fit!
@@GG-dx3bq In the Magellan dry box?
What's the speed pf this quad?
Where did you get the shocks from?
I got the shocks out of my Donavan book.
Ummm no. Zero diag tools,impact driver or even a drill.
I will do an updated video soon with some diag tools and impact drivers.
Interesting stuff. I don’t do much of this so cool too get some insight 👏
This was my first transom job, learned a lot! Hope your staying warm! Summer time is creeping up!!!
@@blakerease Im so ready for summer now!
@@SaltyMechanicsJunior It has came early for us! been 80 all of February
What do you charge for this setup?
If you provided the parts less than $200
Do more stuff bro. Can you do like transmissions engines I need to learn some stuff about boat mechanics fast and you’re the only one on TH-cam doing stuff like this
Thank you for the positive feedback, i will start doing more mechanic videos to see how they do. I do not work on inboards unfortunately
Do you still have the boat? How has the welded transom hold up? Great video.
I sold the boat but the transom did really well, would go the same route if i was to do another build! thank you for the positive feedback Brett!
I have an 18 ft
Thats Awesome David, love how great the star crafts in general take rough water.
That seems to go quite well
It was a fun quad!
@@blakerease i bought a 91' model 100 yesterday!!
@@davidrendell6009 Thats awesome, they dont make them like that anymore!
I work on boats time to time but my father in law has done it for 60 years, quarantines his work , both brother in laws work on them . Ive seen people come from 200 miles away for the Old man to fix what others couldn't It's a good trade . Good setup
When you find a boat mechanic that is good, you stay with them no matter where they go. A knowledgeable and seasoned veteran marine tech is hard to come by and up and coming techs are few and far between.
I see the Wetliner is living up to it's name.
no doubt that boat did not do well in the great lakes.
Why you feel bad for ppl workin on evinrudes?
Evirude/Johnson made pretty awful engines that were not as tech friendly to work on. For example, why should I have to remove a starter to get to a bolt to disconnect a shift shaft for a simple water pump? Another quick example would be an etec that I have to go thru a shop pack of spark plugs to find one that indexes right. If you want to look further down the road look at a G2 water pump replacement. Plastic carb bowls on the 90’s model evinrudes that warped and made a simple carb rebuild pricey and frustrating. VRO’s that would give no warning and fail. The list goes on
That junk drawer gave me heart palpitations
It has since been relocated to bins outside of the box.
Don't need much ? As I stare at 50k in bullshit i have in my boxes hahahaha
Do you take the head unit off or will it close with it on?
Head unit has to come off every time
@@blakerease did you try to position the mount to see if the unit will close with it at all?
Where did you get your shocks? Those look pretty beefy like they would hold up.
I cannot remember where we ordered the shocks from. They are stainless tho. Cost was $50.00 for two of them.
Enjoyed the video. 👍
Thank you for the positive feedback!
This is awesome. It would be perfect for me to catfish at night
Good tools are essential 👨🔧.You inspired me do make a film about tools now. 👍
It gets a lot of views! Only two videos on boat mechanic tool boxes that I have seen! Couldn’t agree more!
@Public Water Marine great tip. I see you get a lot of views on this kinda stuff. 👊I’ll do the same in not to much time. Thanks
@@SaltyMechanicsJunior can’t wait to see it!
Love this stuff. I’m a boat mechanic myself and I do TH-cam like you. It’s so different where you are, but still so much feel like home. I just subscribed, mister👊
Just subscribed to you! Always nice to hear from someone in the industry!! Hope you have a good day man!
@@blakerease nice to hear👊see you on the docks👨🔧and have a great weekend
did you add those connections to your battery. mine is the single but i see yours comes out with a double..thanks
not sure i understand the question
@@blakerease where you hook your box and unit to the battery looks to have dual terminals on the positive and negative side. Can you hook more than one item on your positive and negative side.
@@DLXSKIFFMITCHELL there was two or three separate grounds and yes you can hook up more than one wire to the terminals with piggy back butt connectors. would not do more than three. if you needed to do more than three, you would need a distribution block.
What is the average cost in this video?
the cost of the tools?
Roughly 10,000 in tools this video.
Get those life jackets on !!
I rig boats like this for a living and you did a great job. I would recommend the fishing specialties mount if you’re not going to have the transducer on the trolling motor.
Thank You for the positive feed back Payton, means a lot! I will be sure to recommend that to the customer that owns this set up!
Where y’all hunting
