We don't normally do presale inspections but we did this one because they wanted a volvo penta technician to check over the engines and other systems. We always recommend getting a survey before buying a boat. DON'T DO AS WE DO .... full disclosure. LOL.
Hey Guys be safe during Milton’s visit!. Praying for you !.
Thank you for reaching out … so far just windy and some rain! Phew it passed us by at about 8am.
Matt loves that punch bug so much! It must be wonderful to endure that every time, even when totally going out of the way for it on his birthday 🎂 🥳 It comes across so well in the videos the sheer amount of joy it gives him every single time. I wish I had a wife as emotionally connected with my feelings as Matt has.
Definitely appreciate your comment…we’ve been married for over 31 years and we are just looking to have some fun! Life is short. Hope you find someone that blesses you too.
Happy birthday, Matt!🎂🎂👍👍
Thank you 😊
@@WillFixThat 👍👍
Great episode! Keep rolling WillFixThat team!👍👍
Appreciate you!
@@WillFixThat 👍👍
Happy birthday!! Hope you have a great day!!
Getting old & feeling it some days!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY !.
Thanks Glenn!
The owner of that Bug also owns the red Jaguar that you guys admired earlier. He lives aboard Byte Me, the seafoam green Bertrum in the background . Great guy too. Scott
We are familiar with Bight Me! Thanks for letting us know.
I don't know if he still owns Reel Wheels, but Rick Hendrick of Hendrick Motorsports owned it at one time. He has a larger yacht named "wheels" too.
Yes you are right … we see them often in KWest.
You guys are like ,,,”On vacation at work,,,” every day when yall work
Yeah we wish it was like that 🤣
Woodstock
Yes Woodstock is older people couldn’t remember 🤣
Happy late birthday Matt. hope it was a great one! It's amazing how clean a lot of the engine rooms or compartments are that yall work on and the Zeus drives are fun lol I have only seen one, but I never worked on it, lol 😆 and looking around 20k for that computer diagnostic tools lol 😆 and Matt just buy a battery lol
Thanks Honeybun … actually that computer under $4k. We just did big IPS install this week.
@@WillFixThat oh wow ok I was wrong. My snap-on scanner it was almost 16k when i worked on big trucks and cars and small trucks lol 😆 and I hope yall are going to make an IPS video. I would love to see how it's done!
@@honeybunbandit1it was a big job …. Not much fun in it since it takes a lot of time and guys! Stressful job our forklift was 1 inch from the boat next to us a few times. Matt & Mel did great communicating to get it out & installed! Hard also working on dirt. Yes videos to come.
@@WillFixThat oh man yea high stress like that is never fun, but I'm glad that they were able to get it taken care of.
What is the issue with that engine where you check the pressure sensor? Thx
Sorry I don’t recall🤣 to many boats
Pull the dipstick tube tip holder off the dipstick , it pop off
The your sample tube will easily slide in.
Huh, I’ll try that
We played slug bug 🤣😂🤣
Love it!
What are those white beads spiraled around that yellow line? @ 6:11
The yellow line is the shore power cord. The white beads guide the cord into a basket. The system is called Cable Master.
@@WillFixThat Thanks for the explanation. Very clever.
What do you consider high hours on say a sport fish with duel diesel engines? How old would a boat be to be considered an "old" or "older" boat?
depends on the engines most stuff around 5000 hours starts to get worrisome but not all. also depends on how often the boat is used and how quickly the hours are accumulated. lehman vs cummins 12v, vs cat 3208 etc are all very different animals. then 🫣mtus MAN volvo...etc watch out
I’d say 10-12 years and 1200-1500 hours. A lot depend on condition and if hourly maintenance was done.
316 has a rainbow tint to it....nothing u can do besides have it plated to match
Thanks for sharing!
the reason we try fix power tool batteries I suggest is because we know we are all being screwed over by the manufacturers and their proprietary systems, along with the scammers who sell terrible non oem alternatives. Stabbed in the back and the front. On top of that lithium is way way cheaper than it used to be, battery prices are tumbling, but these manufacturers continue to gouge the consumer with no help from the authorities despite it being obviously a rort. That’s my rant for the day, another great video
Thanks for sharing … more than anything it was an opportunity for Matt to see if he could fix the batteries using Utube. 🤣
Drill a condensation for the hole in the sensor hose
what about the pressure
U mean hole for the condensation ?
I am up in Georgia and the weathermen here are wrong most of the time too. That also goes for when I was iin California and it was pouring rain and they said 10 percent chance. I am more accurate than any of them. I go outside and already know more than they do.
lol we love to kid about the 10% change as we are taking cover under the boats to stay dry!
Jet Engines do not use different metals for there bearings they have magnetic plugs for different bearing compartments
what was the hull # in the stinckey?
I worked in trenton for a while
I’m not sure if we have it I’d have to ask Matt!
I call him road house
Never heard of that … ?
20 k for the Volvo tech tool. Plus what is the yearly updates
Do you mean the Vodia computer?
@@WillFixThat yes sorry
@@doug2202just under $4k
Powder coating may have prevented corrosion.
Yes maybe. Do we know you Leland? 🧐
Woodstock is Smoopy's birds name I think.
Love Smoopy’s bird name 🤣
Woodstock!
Yes took us older folks a bit to remember … lol.
Rick Hendricks sportfisher
Yes 👍
WOODSTOCK!
Yes us old people couldn’t remember lol!
@@WillFixThat Heck, I'm 70; you ain't nowhere near old! 😀
@@MikeyDee25feel like it some days.
Before he passed, did you guys ever run into Jimmy Buffett?
No we didn’t run into him but could have attended his parrot head performances. He was all around the island before he passed but remember he hides under hats.
Was I t Woodstock
Yes fatcat we struggled with remembering this morning 🤣
I have two corroded and broken windshield supports on a 2004 Luhrs express. Do you guys know anyone who can fabricate new ones
Are you in KWest?
@@WillFixThat I'm in Tampa
@@skullhartdon’t know anyone in your area. If you were here was going to say reach out to KW Welding.
I’ve tried the TH-cam Makita battery trick also, never worked……
Yeah we bought new batteries.
@@WillFixThat lol, so did I!
I bet your Volvo Computer equipment was close to $10,000
Actually under $4k 👍
$3500-4000 for the laptop and the other parts?
Yes great guess 👍
The design of that pod irritates the bejabbers out of me. Engineers and designers must remember this stuff needs to be maintained, the more difficult routine checks are, the fewer times it will be done or the more time consuming and expensive or the more expensive the work will be.
Yes it’s unfortunately the same way with new cars these days.
SLUG BUG
Yes …. 👍
Slug bug
Love it 😊
$3500
Yup pretty close!
busted knuckles
🤣
Laptop, $800-1200
Adapter and cables 3500-5000
Renewal? 1500-3000 a year…
Yes on the first 2 … the renewal next year we will see … we have no idea didn’t ask.
His hands shake because you cut the blood off every where when you get upside down and backwards on your head
Or he needed to eat.
As evidenced by the goofy punch buggy endless reference
You made me curse when you said pods.
How come did you have ips issues?
@@WillFixThat it’s about serviceability of the PODS is the main problem and of having qualified techs to understand them is even moved exhausting. The last thing, is it’s old technology that needs to be faded out and go with a synced shaft drive that operates bow thrusters together. The technology is there, but for the salinity of our waters, less is more in those waters.
$10,000
You would think but just under $4k with all the cables.
If you put the Lauderdale shifter all the way full forward looks like you would get your fingers jammed against the console ? Or do you place your thumb on top of the shifter" Hate to split hairs but the punch buggy is juvenile and wayyyyy overdone,,,must be the florida sun wearing down the brain cells....
The punch buggy is just having some fun!
bro how is your hands shaking so much man???
It’s just how he is maybe he needed food.
Woodstock
Yes love it.
