I would flood the base of the boat before floating it, to see if water leaks out instead of leaking in when in the water, I imagine you eventually buying a little lake full of fish then hiring out your fleet and offer a fishing experience, You can also have a shop with your baits too :)
At night place a torch inside the upturned boat then with chalk circle any light that you can see through the hull this is the easiest and best way of finding leaks
Good to see you back JT, a couple of 2X4 running from seat to seat will give you all the support you need on the front deck,,carpet the floor as well, make it so much quieter
I'm seriously asking because I want to know for when I build mine. What are you gonna do when it rains whether it be while you're hauling it or whatever.. as soon as that osb gets wets your floors is ruined and you'll step right through it??
Picked up a 1652 lowe from 1976 for $250 the other day. I feel like it was a steal. Its beat up a bit, but not bad for a 50 year old boat. Plus i work in sheet metal so some.bent aluminum doesnt scare me 😅
Nice deal for sure! I am going to pickup a 14ft aluminum v boat with a trailer and 9.9 horse outboard for 500$ tomorrow, planning on doing the same conversion to mine!
I know this is a older video but I got a trailer last year around the same time for a little kayak and I painted it up nicely and put new lights and all on it and I bought the same thing when it came to the wrong wiring thing I felt like a idiot. Good video i enjoyed it. Maybe I can build my john boat now who knows 🤷♂️
JT I enjoy your outside channel just as much as your other channels. As already suggested, turn the SS Lizzie into a gorgeous bed of beautiful colourful flowers 💐 I'm looking forward to your next Outside vlog, maybe it will be of you taking Anna for a romantic Valentines meal 😉
I'm so impressed by how much of that you got done in one day! If I had a dollar for every tape measure I had to buy because I couldn't find one, I'd have enough to buy about a dozen more, so maybe I'd be able to find one of them...🤣
I love DIY building and any type of craft projects. Your boats always look awesome. 😊. Where I am in the UK, it keeps yo yoing between high of 10 degrees Celsius to - 5 degrees Celsius. Only had 2- days of snow so far but it instantly melted lol. Xx
Thought i was doing good but you might have me beat, found me a 12 foot fiberglass vhull with a trailer, motor that needs a tune up, and a trollin motor mount for 500 bucks total gonna seal the whole thing before i put it in the water and set it up with a deck to fish off and a Bimini for the wife to chill under
JT, thought you should know that a scammer is offering prizes in you name complete with your photo for best comment on your other TH-cam channel. They are asking for money to cover shipping costs....
Love how women get mad at a boat purchase or guns…but go spend $200 at bath and body works, $400 on a purse, $200 at the nail salon, and am on. Doesn’t make sense to me
If SS Lizzie isn't floating anymore, fill her with soil and make it a bed of English Roses 👍
Great idea!!
@@Zippy66 Very smart thinking.
A flower garden out of The SS Lizzie is an amazing idea, yes Busy Lizzies and/ or Roses 🌹…… lavender (something for the 🐝) #recycle 👌🏽👍🏽😁

Anna's reaction "it's long, its large" got the kevin and perry in me crying with laughter!
JT you have to marry her!
I'm wondering if JT knows who Kevin and Perry are. Teenage boy let's say!!

Use 1/2 inch pvc to run the wires through. Psint it the same color as the trailer then zip tie it to trailer. Works 👍
THIS channel is my favourite JT content!! Hands down!
I love it when JT's plan comes together! 😊
love Anna's reaction ... "WHY" !!!

I'm just getting started with looking for a jon boat and doing this kind of build to it. Love your project
Careful with pressure treated wood and aluminum. That copper in the wood reacts with aluminum.

When you were power spraying it at 23:40 I was thinking, "He should be wearing an N-95."
Great job JT, looks the business. Maggie is looking healthy xx bless her xx
What happened to the old bait shed? Just left it after you moved?
No we brought it with us, it’s in the last video I uploaded!!
@@JTOutdoors11 Nice, I must of missed a video, I'll go back and watch it now.

Plus i work in sheet metal so some.bent aluminum doesnt scare me 😅
this reminded me of the new zealend deck advert
Btw a carpenters pencil is only flat and oblong so the pencil doesn’t roll around when you set it down
I just got a 12 foot with a trailer for 200 no leaks😂 trailer needed lights
How long was the boat and how did u find it there?
As in how did u find it on fbmp

You luckyyyy dog. 😊
I'm going to do the same thing. So, keep the videos rolling. I'm excited about this ☺️
Next time use a Big Crescent Wrench to bend the light brackets or if you run into something similiar.
Is it stable in the water?

Didn’t have a title when you bought it?
Looking to score a jon boat for 50 obo, hopefully no holes. Comes w a trolling motor. Tired of bank fishing nd looking to get into boating
I'm so impressed by how much of that you got done in one day!

How did you get 25$ for plywood it’s over 75$ for that now

I just inherited a boat very similar in size and condition

Yo I got my 12 foot John boat for $100 came with a trailer and the boat it had no leaks that was the first thing I checked lol
I absolutely love Maggie 😂
Nice job JT👍👏❤
I’ve got a 17 foot bass tracker for sale for 4500 got it from an old man’s son who passed away. It was kept inside.
Nice Fleet you have there.
Put the ss lizzie on some saw horses anf start to fill it with water u will find the leak/leaks

Top Job chap 🤘
Great job! 👍
Wrench = Spanner here in the UK, just FYI
$25 for any grade 3/4in plywood? What the heck? What Home Depot you going to has 2004 prices?
You are funny Maggie🐶😂
It's been awhile
🔥🔥🔥
3:18 I got one for 24 bucks haha
Pause that sentence was a little close 😂
Little bit of oil on your hinges and your doors in your house just saying bud I love the boat
I found a guy selling 2 jons for 150 obo each
Sounds like my wife lol. After my 1st 2 kayaks and my jon boat I traded my shotgun for a 14ft gamefisher tri hull. She was like why? But whatever 😂
Wtf your garage is bigger than my house!! 😆
You gotta call it QE2. 😊
£274. Wow thats great 👍🏻 👌
Great 👍🏻 👌
No the zip ties are the best way to do it.
i love maggie

I'm sure it doesn't leak...
all it does is leak lol
she's not going to marry him because now she knows what he likes to do
Going to copy you
If my gf reacted like that I’d tell her “BYE!”
