By the way we found some cheap seat covers made it look so much better. And I see this video is a month old just ran into your channel but sure do like you are so good at putting them decks on them I’m in the process of doing one myself thanks man
Some of your older videos have the comments turned off, but I just wanted to say thank you, your videos have been great as a reference as I work on my Jon boat build. I live in East Tennessee, hopefully I can get it out on the lake before the end of the season
I like that boat! I have the same trolling motor on my boat and it's a 1989, i was wanting to replace it but it still works good. Glad you showed labels on it. Mine don't have any info on it beside Evinrude, my direction indicator came off also. It yeeted itself off, as my kids said 😅
Man I love your channel so much gave you a sub and like . That boat right is a dang good one my granddad has one same motor 75 that boat will go built so good keep them coming and be safe brother
awesome video.. thanks for sharing! i was shocked how that paint job turned out. i would've fixed that battery wiring too. i was expecting about 40 mph when i seen that 75. i have a 94 alumacraft superhawk (console) that i bought 3 years ago and upgraded. i hear you on the rehab vs the build, haha.
i own the 95 alumacraft 15 ft with the 76 johnson 70 hp i get 42 mph out of her for a little boat she is scary fast but if you want to putt around in 2ft of water this is that boat. love this video
I fish an 03 Duracraft Xtreme 1648. almost the same layout just with thicker gauge aluminum. surprisingly good riding hull I just wish it had a little more horsepower than a 50
Hey bro- I’m in the middle of a Lowe 1652 full out conversion. I’m going to fish and duck hunt with it. I just started removing the foam from the inside of the rear bench. My wife is seriously questioning my decision to do this as she thinks this styrofoam is what makes the boat float. Now, I know it’s merely used as a supplemental material to hold the boat above the surface after a massive tsunami OR a dreadful capsize. How can I explain this to her in a logical way without causing a war? And….am I even correct in saying it is on the boat for the reasons I stated above or am I way off base, too? Oh and uh, GO VOLS!!! (From Hendersonville, north of Nash.)
I have four batteries one of them is a lithium battery just for the livescope and the other three to run my trolling motor plus other accessories and one dedicated to the gas motor the other two are ran in parallel still 12-volt system but a deeper well to draw from enjoy the video thanks
Batteries in parallel (+ to + and - to -) will maintain 12volts but increase the amp hour to the total of both batteries. Batteries in series (+ to - ) will increase volts but not the amp hour. Two 12 volt batteries in series will create a 24v system.
Hey bud I got a 14ft Jon boat with a damn good trailer and 2 motors I’d sell ya trying to come up with some cash and don’t have time to build the way I want
He’s back. Glad to see you at it again

That's a great way to make some extra cash, buy it right and fix the little things is something can't or don't want to do. I enjoy all your videos.
Another great video! Keep them coming.
She's a beauty! I'm in the same boat (pun intended) looking for an older aluminum skiff to pickup and redo.
The paint you did looks great!
Great video, and great boat! You should make some good change on it.
Those trolling motors are really good. Fix it up and use it
Yep. My new fav channel ever. Besides thatboatguy but I mean cmon. More Jon boat builds!
Sweet boat. Wish you were close enough for me to come get it. 2 states away from ya.

Hey buddy. Not related to this video. But how do you like that transom mounted power pole on your g3? Any regrets mounting to the transom?
Watching the first few seconds of the video after looking like a idiot at the dump trying to back a trailer up has me feeling some type of way haha
🤣🤣
Where are you located at I'm very interested in the boat I have cash but I live in Tennessee

another great video
When will we see another vid?
You should try painting on some plastic dip on those seats. Several thin coats.
Very cool!!!!!
18:40 that must be why they had jumper cables in the boat 😂
Elbow Grease = $
Nice work! 💪👌

Seafoam !!! The longer you use it the BETTER it Runs IMHO!
Great video.Hows the quality of duracraft?
Seems to be pretty good for it’s age.
@@backwaterboatrehab duracraft has always built a great boat if lm not mistaken duracraft builds the war eagle
Why turn off comments on your boat painting videos?
wait were u been
It should have a stator on the motor that charges the batteries. Probably why they had the batteries connected, so it would charge them both...
You’re right. I’ve just never seen anyone try to charge both batteries from the motor. Quick internet search shows it is indeed possible though.
Batteries in parallel (+ to + and - to -) will maintain 12volts but increase the amp hour to the total of both batteries. Batteries in series (+ to - ) will increase volts but not the amp hour. Two 12 volt batteries in series will create a 24v system.
Does this dudes city and county know he the one taking all their street signs to use as flooring on his boats?
He has a video where he said he knows someone who works for the road department or something and when a sign gets minimal damage they retire it
Something like that
Check boat speed with a handheld gps unit on ground speed. You will find that the speedometer is wrong.
Nothing wrong with cherry picking a boat to try and recoup some of that burned up Jon boat money. 🤘🏻
Hey bud I got a 14ft Jon boat with a damn good trailer and 2 motors I’d sell ya trying to come up with some cash and don’t have time to build the way I want
