- This video may be a mess, but don't worry a full summary of crusty lobster boats and bad decisions is on the horizon!
If you possess any knowledge on Downeast style boats or boats with marine Diesel engines and transmissions, I'd love to hear from you. I am definitely looking to hire someone who can help with the transmission and installation of a QSB 5.9 (I already bought the motor) email me at peter@petersripol.com
Checkout total boat for all your resin and boat building needs (I may be saying this cuz they help me a ton!) but I'm genuinely happy with the product!

Ive seen total boat resin used in so many other applications it is genuinely strange to see it used on a boat
Right after watching Xyla Foxlin I feel like it should be Total Rocket
That's true! Resin tables and art projects, but no boats.
As a profesional boat builder this a wild comment. Not that I would use total boat professionally.
@@williamdelano7052 well what do you use?
Came here to comment the same thing 🤣🤣🤣
This man goes from planes to mini houses and now a lobster boat? This channel never gets old
After the boat is finished he will probably launch planes from it... ;-)
@@clemenslangenberger4791 Zipline style launches and landings would be epic
Lobster Submarine!
What if.... Flying lobster boat with bed in it?
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Touch grass.
What's next, a full sized Craigslist helicopter that Peter turns into an RC one?
petercopter
That could literally happen, if history proves anything about PS.
Would probably go better than the Whistlin Diesel helicopter too
@@scottiniowa1 yes i hope not as violent
Don't give him any ideas, or at least let his wallet recover first 😅
The only TH-camr who casually goes from talking about planes made of food fly to buying crust old lobster boat
Dude's been into rc boats and stuff just as much as he's done rc planes.
Of course you're here
Not true at all. You obviously don't look around TH-cam much.
Walter I find it funny how you are commenting on all the creators I watch lol
STOP STALKING ME THREW MY BROWSER HISTORY.
Had the same boat my entire life. Sure, I've replaced the windows, the hull, the decking, the engine, the sheets, the seats, the roof, the fuel tank, the stringers and the transom. But other than that, same boat, my whole life!
The Ship of Theseus!
Oh hi there Theseus

Replaced the hull😂 isn’t that the whole thing haha
Can’t wait for him to finish then sell it for something bigger and more time consuming
This comment hurts me cuz it’s probably true
@@PeterSripol Keep trading up and it'll eventually be "Look at this abandoned container ship I'm refurbishing!"
There is that 737 sitting in that field.
Pls just stick with this one
Peter's aircraft carrier coming soon!
Love that it wasn't just a bad reveal video and you actually got into working on it! Also glad you're filing the entire build process and not just montaging it! Super interesting and can't wait for the next video!
Although 8 minutes is a bit short, but also probably means they are working hard.
Only Peter could make an 8 minute video on something I desperately want a 30 minute video of :'D :'D
Oh no, not a multi part video series, unsubbed
Unsubbed, joking
great, will watch
Couldn’t agree more
Hello IM from indonesia
Sometimes I forget I'm subbed in the first place so this checks out
From what vehicles I've watched people revive, that volvo engine just needs a few parts and some TLC to get in perfect running condition. I am assuming it is a diesel and diesels are already pretty bullet proof.
Add some deep pockets for ludicrously expensive Volvo parts…….
Gunna be wild seeing a lobster boat fly.
....how many leaf blowers needed?! More or less than 300?
@@RUBIZEN at least
That's a pretty good engine, I'm surprised you're swapping it out at all. Can't wait to see the mini-reactor and steam turbine though :)
That motor has a service life of 8000 hours, which most likely already surpassed since that was a working boat and spare parts are non-existent. This is most likely a free/abandoned boat donated for this project as even paying $5000 for it would have been too much as normally something with that much rot and that engine would have been sent to the landfill.
A repower is going to cost around $30,000 with a USED 200-250hp diesel.
@@TexasStormChaser Ah, I was under the impression that those Volvo Penta marine engines were pretty good, although I suspect that even if parts are hard to find for one that old that a rebuild would be a more economical choice. I'm used to 1940-50s stuff, but even then parts aren't exactly impossible to find, just annoying. Also he could buy a 2000hr used engine identical to the one in it for around $4-6k, so I suspect the repower is more for making the project more interesting and upgrading HP output.
@@joedingo7022 I think Peter should just stick to RC planes personally. His tiny home project was a complete failure in every possible aspect from design, construction, electrical, plumbing, etc. This boat will suffer the same fate.
@@joedingo7022Volvo Penta are great engines. Larger ones 750kw dont have their first service untill 12.000 hours. Service every 8000 hours after that if im not mistaken. The smaller ones are good as well. Parts are easy to get at least here in europe. Dont know about parts in US though
@@TexasStormChaser you seem to know a lot about boats, maybe that's why your comments are so salty ',:)
Hey Peter! I repowered a sailboat and the way I aligned the shaft and strut was using a gun boresight laser. I made an adapter to fit it in the transmission to shaft coupling, lowered the engine/trans in the boat then adjusted until the laser was shining straight down the cutlass bearing. I then fabricated some engine mount stringers in place.
Hope this helps or gives you some ideas!
I wondered if anyone else had done it this way! guess i'll be turning an adaptor on the lathe for my new cummins QSB
I like that window lean forward design so much better. Very pacific northwest look.
That old Volvo in good condition would be the right motor for that boat. Turbo diesel with a long stroke motor and lots of torque is what you want. Slow revving, big, three-bladed bronze prop. You only need Morse cables for steering, but hydraulics will give you a lighter wheel. You can replace the drive shaft with a new stainless steel shaft with Morse tapers either end. Use a cutlass bearing on the prop end and use a standard stuffing box on the coupling end. Use a universal coupling to help with alignment.
You're gonna have to sell your tiny house and live in the boat to afford it. My dad has spent his career building and working on boats like yours and always told me this: "Boats are a hole in the water that you put money into." Good luck. Looks like you know what you're doing. Repowering isn't that bad. One of the hardest parts is getting the angle of the engine right.
The two best days of a boaters life are the day they buy the boat, and the day they get rid of the boat.
Boat: Bust Out Another Thousand...
Almost feels like you could have / should have just built a boat from scratch... That's a lot of work you've done. Learned a lot, thanks!
The whole rotten core stuff really looks like a horror show. Peter has the energy to take it on, but the greenbacks - maaaan!
Theseus, thy ship is Sripol's.
@@makingitwithnick Lol, yes!
I have a family member that works for a cat dealer in Wisconsin. He is an engineer that repowers boats with cat diesels. He does personal projects as well as large commercial tug boats. I may be able to put you in touch of your interested. Also you could probably talk to a number of local dealers about options.
I don’t know much about marine diesels but I know a lot about on road diesels and it’s very rarely a good idea to repower something unless you have a hole in the block or some really good reason to do so. If you’re concerned with reliability then keeping an older engine without a bunch of epa stuff on it is by far the way to go. I would just have it rebuilt and send it. Or just send it as is, which is what I would do pending the results after a good mechanic ran the overhead, checked it for blowby and did an oil sample. 👍
modern marine diesels have mechanical injection pumps and few emissions controls, much like diesels made 30 years ago.
@@marzsit9833 that’s awesome then I didn’t know that I just assumed they ruined them like they did on road diesels.
Repowering this dump with a new 200-250hp diesel would be in the 80k range, absolute insanity for a rotted boat not worth $1000. He will have to go used, but even a used 200hp diesel (cat/yanmar) installed will run in the 20-30k range. It financially makes no sense to repower, as you said... just send it with what it has. This whole project is a dumpster fire and super cringy. Even if he got that boat for free, it's not worth it. Peter needs to stick to RC planes cause his tiny home and now this boat have been complete failures he has no idea what he's doing.
@@TexasStormChaser I'm a sailor so I don't know much about power boats. Our sailboat is 43 feet long and weighs 18 tons. It gets along nicely with a 60 hp diesel. We've done many thousands of miles. We normally run it at 60% RPM. Of course you need a lot of power for a commercial fishing boat but for leisure displacement boating he may not need such a large engine? Our motor, shaft and prop cost about $15 000 USD brand new. Peter should be able to manage most of the install.
@@TexasStormChaser I agree with not repowering but where did you come up with $1000? It’s a 30ft boat with a working diesel. If you know a secret place to pick up boats like this please share
I have absolutely zero experience doing boats or any vehicle, but it seemes like Peter pretty much removed everything except the metal frame of the boat. Is there a benefit to buying an old boat and removating it compared to making a brand new boat?
Yeah, the ad revenue on the video!
With this boat most of the engineering is already done for them, designing a large boat from scratch would take iteration and knowledge and tools and craftsmen and a lot of money so it would quickly outweigh the cost of overhauling an old one. This is, surprisingly, the cheaper route compared to a new boat or designing a completely custom boat.
It's definitely cheaper to do it the way Peter is, even factoring in labor.
@@kalebroark87 yeah, I guess if he is not paying for labour, then it would work out cheaper. Still feels like a lot of work but I’ve changed my mind and am waiting to see how it turns out before I pass my meaningless judgement! 😂
Really excited for the next part. Amazing to see you working on full size stuff with the same flair as the models.
I love those old Volvo Pentas, if you service it, it will be the absolute best, just make sure you rebuild it with a closed loop cooler if you do rebuil dit, as they're otherwise prone to rusting stuck to the engine assembly.
That boat is gonna look PRISTINE
From tiny rc boats to full size . You are quite the builder Peter you are never afraid to tackle bigger projects 😄
Hey guys, i'm just casually REBUILDING AN ENTIRE FREKING LOBSTER BOAT, Peter this is nuts!!! but it looks so good already! can't wait to see how it turns out and what will come of you having that behemoth of a boat

God I love having such a LEGEND as our local TH-camr. Always rooting for you. We are all proud. Insane content. I drive by Jamestown Distributors all the time to visit my grandparents.
The Volvo TAMD line of engines is great! We had a TAMD41-A in our Dyer 29 and we repowered with a Yanmar 8LV-370. Even better!
This video feels notable to me for being one of the very few times I've seen Total Boat products being used on an _actual Boat_ rather than a craft project.
This man deserves so many more views than he gets.
Dude, you've announced and shown more progress in an 8 minute / ~2 week (real time) video than most boat refurb channels show in months! You're killing it, can't wait for the next video. This is going to be awesome! :D
Yes! It is cool to see you go after your goals like that! Keep up the good work.
Is there something wrong with the motor? If not do some maintenance on it and run it, should be plenty powerful for what you are going to do with it
nice vid, looking forward to what comes next :D
Hello Peter, Cummins is a great choice for an engine. One ship I worked on still has the KTA19 500 hp from 1987 that is still awesome. I now captain a 50 foot Duffy in Woods Hole that was repowered last year with a QSM11 455 hp. And yes, the bilge was painted with Total Boat white epoxy bilge paint before the engine went in. You are pursuing the right path! Thanks, David
Питер, это просто потрясающе, что Вы взяли такой большой проект! С нетерпением жду следующей серии. Удачи Вам!
He never disappoints to make us smile❤❤❤
Can you make a gyro stablizer for the boat? They are expensive and a diy one would be cool
I want more updates on this project! I love these type of big projects! More please! Can't wait to see everything you do to the boat!
The engine might be worth keeping. They are really good and it will save you a ton of money. Great video, thx!
"We can rebuild her; we have the technology to remake the $6,000,000 lobster boat."
Peter,
I have been a subscriber to your channel since before you even had 600k subscribers. From the very first video I watched, I was hooked on your content and knew that you were destined for great things. As I have watched your channel grow and develop over the years, I have been consistently impressed by your creativity, skills, and dedication to your craft.
In fact, I believe that you deserve far more than just a couple of million subscribers. Your talent and hard work have earned you a place among the most successful and influential TH-camrs out there, and I have no doubt that you will continue to rise to even greater heights in the future.
As a fan of your channel, I want to thank you for all that you do., and I am excited to see what you have in store for us in the years to come. Keep up the amazing work, and know that you have a loyal and enthusiastic audience cheering you on every step of the way.
Tbh, I never thought it was gonna hit 100K 😂
Gnarly project. Totalboat products have never let me down.
It may be one of the biggest projects you have done, it also is one of the coolest in my opinion. Glad you have a good sponsor, a friend of mine once had a boat, it was so expensive he would rent it out. He described it as "a hole in the water he threw money into". That is why I prefer kayaks. No motor, basically just wash them and store them in the roof of the garage for years and it costs you nothing to drag them back out. Can't say I don't love boats like these too though.
I am gonna be honest is there a real reason to replace that engine with a newer one. Volvo engines are pretty reliable I would just run with what you have and maybe have it reconditioned.
Same thing I was thinking. I’d have the overhead ran, have it checked for blowby and pull an oil sample. If all three show no real concern then I wouldn’t waste my money. And I wouldn’t repower regardless. Unless of course he can get one of those badass new hybrid diesel/electric engines on a sponsorship deal. Then I probably would 😂
I agree too I even commented along the same lines. Old Volvo diesels are very common on boats here in New Zealand they are well known to be reliable, it's 2500kms to Fiji from here if your in a yacht you need a reliable engine for days of no wind during passages and manouvering without sail. Diesels of all sizes with regular maintenance have been trusted here for generations.
Ima have to say scrap the submarine plan. No reason really. Just not feeling it anymore
mm yeah i just had a feeling thats not the best idea idk why tho
This is such a cool project and beautiful building and restoring video, please don't let it pass so quick. Make the videos longer
Totalboat is such an awesome sponsor. They sponsor soooo many of the channels I follow when I see someone use resin that isn't from total boat I am always surprised. If I ever need lots of resin I am going totalboat.
I love this guy, never a dull moment with him or his squad!... 💯💯💯
You could look at how Sailing Uma did their first electric motor; they just used a forklift motor and lined it up to their existing prop. But iirc they had to redo a lot of the driveline stuff and they explain it pretty well.
My Dad was a wooden boat builder. Jamestown Distributors were his biggest supplier for bronze fasteners. It's kind of neat to see it in this context.
Peter good luck on this challenging project looking forward to seeing the progress.
I'm so excited to see how this project goes!!
Very cool, and way more work than I'd be willing to do on an old fiberglass boat!
This would be a great video to pin to the top of boating forums or /r/boats. When people say they got a "great deal", link them to Peter tearing apart his entire boat and rebuilding the whole thing!
Getting interested in boats in general so I'm excited for this series.
Awesome series, don't worry about the cost too much, after everything is done it will be worth quite a bit
I think im liking your boat videos more than your RC videos. You really go out and do everything right wvery step of the way
This is one of the smartest projects you've done. Keep spending the money. It's a great repower for your channel.
😎😎 We love having you and seeing the transformation out our window!
Love the idea!
oh boy im in it for this series! keep the boat vids coming!
huge project! looking forward to more. good luck Peter!
If you can find the money, i would recommend mounting an electric motor straight to the shaft. No clutch, no bullshit, very simple, and as maintenance free as it gets. Then just get a few prismatic LFP batteries (those are the most stable and least fire prone) as a buffer and put in any generator you want for charging. Then later on you can always add more batteries, and freaking solar panels! Free fuel!
MORE BOAT MORE BOAT MORE BOAT. Really love boat content keep it up
Cool project! Thanks for sharing!
You do more boat build in one video than all other TH-cam DIY fix an old crappy boat combined. Good on ya mate
One quick little trick I love for drying out vehicles fast is battery leaf blowers. The cheap black n deckers are perfect for getting everywhere
Can't wait for the next video!
That would be a dream boat for me - great work so far - excited to see the progress and excited your so close to my neck of the woods.
What a project! You guys are capable!
The best 2 days of a boat owner's life. The day he buys the boat and the day he sells it.
Can't wait to see the finished product
I look forward to seeing all of the different problems(challenges) that arise for the re-power :D
Total boat rocks. Love their products
As usual, you've managed to make a project that *must've* been pretty tedious and frustrating at times and made it look like an adventure vacation.
If only I could do that for yard work...
That seems like quite the undertaking... I can't wait to see the final result
peterboatpol is my favorite variety of petersripol
Id recommend getting a cummins Signature gen 2 engine. I personally can tell you how good they are. We would routinely put 1.3m kms on a gen 2 pulling between 90 and 105 tonne loads every load, across Australia. They are regularly used here to power houseboats up and down the Murray river.
I’m really gonna enjoy watching this. I love restoration videos, and I love boats.
This is a excellent second boat! Congratulations
A solid purchase. congratulations.
For your next project, MAKE IT FLY!
Hello there!!! Love what you do!
It's wild seeing how different the process for working on a fiberglass boat is than on a wooden boat like Sampson Boat Co.'s Tally Ho.
As someone who builds lobster boats I never would have expected to see one of these boats being rebuilt on the channel.
very cool, excited to see more progress
WE NEED a peter and cleetus video!
Can’t wait for part two.
Peter constantly proves that, if you don't think you can't do it, you can do it.
It’s going to be so sick! Loved the montages
coolest project yet looking forward to the end result!!!
Would love to see you do a diesel electric power plant conversion but with funds being low that's probably out of the question.
I've had one of these boats for about 10 years now and they are the most customize able things ever
I wish I had a son like him. He is an inspiration to the mind and spirit.

Cool video a lot of people enjoy watching boat repair videos thank you for sharing.
Been looking forward to this since the first boat vide
Awesome, Peter!😀
If you're not replacing your Transom right away, are you even overhauling a boat on TH-cam? Love it.
You should do an electric diesel hybrid power plant. Its a great motor for short electric runs and the diesel can be used to charge the batteries back up. Need some solar and some Lifepo4's also!
Boat's are such an addiction. 🤣 Didn't think I'd expect to see a boat project on this scale from you. I'm doing something similar right now, with a Trojan F32. Pulled both engines, cut out the stringers, rebuilt them. rewired the whole boat, built a 560ah lithium pack for the house battery, redesigned the kitchen, and a million other things. It's amazing how much wiring those old boats used, compared to a modern NMEA2000 system. Converting it all over to digital, so pulled out probably 200lbs of old wiring. Built a new helm, also, with dual touch screens. Super fun project that never seems to end.
I had the exact same idea the other day, and even had a friend photoshop that style cockpit onto my boat. I really like that window design. So many more things I want to do, but there's only so much one person can have time for.
Nice videos, channel never gets old, keep up the good work
