Nice work. I once bought an old Ranger bass boat and restored it much like you did. Later sold it and bought a much newer Ranger that didn't need any work at all but I missed the old Ranger and had much more fun restoring & using the old boat. 😅
I’ve been considering doing this my self. This is inspiring. You absolutely killed it dude. The second I see a boat in a similar shape I’m gonna try it my self. I’m amazed with the amount of boat you had to start with for $600
$2365 is waaaayy better than spending 60k or higher on a brand new one! I think you came out way ahead! That will get you to the fish just like one off the showroom floor!
I loved watching all 3 of your videos on the restoration of the Nitro. I am going to say if you fish a lot and especially if you take others with you then you will definitely will want a bigger boat. I have a 181/2 ft boat and still wish I had another foot or two. I say this mainly for the safety aspect because on the Tennessee river I fish , it can get very sketchy at times. I have always made it back to the boat ramp but I would have felt a lot safer in a bigger boat. I enjoy watching your videos and I did subscribe. I will be watching for more restorations in the future or what ever! Thanks for sharing!
@@Ace.Fisher I feel your pain because I’ve had four boats and none of them fit in any of my garages. I have always kept them covered with boat covers but I realize they are not great. I just love to fish and I gotta do what I gotta do! If you fish a lot then it is well worth that extra length but yes the boat will be exposed more so. Thanks for videos dude’
Beautiful restoration work! That Nitro looks like it came off the showroom floor! Can’t find any links to the products (specifically those black rims)? Keep up the good work 👍🏻
Thank you! Apparently it’s against TH-cam guidelines to include product links in the description. The wheels came off Amazon, search “boat trailer wheels” they will pop up.
I really like your energy level as well as your approach to projects. Remarkable talent and skill. You did good in recording with the equipment you have. I did subscribe so look forward to future posts. Best of luck on the new project and tight lines.
Awesome restoration! I expected it to cost much more than it did. I have a 1996 Skeeter and loving every bit of it. What products did you use for sanding and buffing out the boat and trailer?
Ok I’ll make sure to go do some white bass fishing, what part of MO are you in? White bass are easy to catch from the bank this time of the year because they move into the creeks for spawning.
Over-all, that is still a bargain for what you ended up with. If someone had to pay labor, add another 3K+. Even at 4700-5k that is a decent price for the quality and appearance of the final product.
A boat for less than $3000 and you're fishing....cant beat that! Well done man.
When you touched the boat. It blew my mind 😂😂😂😂😂 I thought it was a picture
Awesome job 2400.00 hundred dollars is awesome I. I love the color im.looking for one myself . Thanks for sharing, look forward to the next one .

Cool story thanks for sharing!
Great job
A nice boat like this at under $3000 is a great deal!
Thanks I think so too!
Wow, fantastic.
Plus you could always sell it for a profit I think you came out great ! Great job
You are one talented young man and I love your videos. Keep them coming.
That makes you stop and think when a new depth finder costs more than the boat.
That’s why BOAT stands for:
Break Out Another Thousand.
Great work.
100%!
You did a great job! A lot of boat for the money. On your next restoration would be interesting to also see how you deal with the wiring. Subscribed!
Thank you! Will keep in mind

Thanks! Yeah keep looking once in a while good deals pop up!
Great job on the boat..I like fishing for largemouth bass
Thank you!
Great job! Nice boat! Boats out my way usually have trees growing out of them for $600.
😂 same but once in a while nice ones pop up.
Nice job! You can sell that for much more Great investment
That’s a great deal!! It’s really nice for what you have in it!
Thanks! I was thinking it was less than that before I counted everything but I’m still happy with the final price!
Keep up the great work. Excited to see more rebuilds or else upgrades to the boat.
Thank you!
Great job, you should be proud of yourself. Now go out and enjoy it.
Thank you!

Thank you! I definitely don’t mind a bigger boat the only problem for me is storing it, current boat barely fits in my garage.

Awesome restoration! I expected it to cost much more than it did. I have a 1996 Skeeter and loving every bit of it. What products did you use for sanding and buffing out the boat and trailer?
Thank you! I used Maguire’s 1 step compound and sanded with 1000 and 2000 grit sponges.
Bro you got a whole boat for less than most people pay for one fish finder 😂
100% 😂
Would love to see a white bass fishing video on your nitro you restored. I live in missouri but never been white bass fishing due to no boat.
Ok I’ll make sure to go do some white bass fishing, what part of MO are you in? White bass are easy to catch from the bank this time of the year because they move into the creeks for spawning.
@@Ace.Fisher I'm in granby mo

Thank you!
Where do you live in Missouri? I have the same exact boat with a 115 and I go to Noland’s point, just curious…
Near Springfield!
$2300-$2500?
What did you use for the gel coat
Maguire's 1 step compound
3,475
$2200
Amazing job
