Man what a job! I think we took 4 industrial garbage bags full of foam out of our Grady. Definitely one of the more painstaking things we’ve done on our restore. We found the shovel to be a great tool too! Can’t wait for the next vid! 👍

[@dylanbefishing]

yea the shovel was definitely the way to go when removing the foam

Picking up a 171 in similar shape this weekend. Ill be following for advice.

sweeet!!!

[@customledandfiberopticsinc2756]

That looked like a fun job but it's a great start. You might want to brace that boat while you restore it so it doesn't develop a twist. just having it on the trailer lets it move around too much. Looking forward to the next video

[@dylanbefishing]
