Thats a 6HP mid 70's Jounson/Evinrude outboard. I am local to you, have access to parts and tons of experience with these if you want any insight ot assistance. That gearcase unbolts from the bottom of the hull and is quite easy to service and rebuild.
Good for you reaching out to Mustie... As you have said the lower unit needs to come off the hull to fully assess the issue... The drive line seems to have been under some strain & developed some end float & possibly dropped away from the powerhead drive.
A proper OMC fuel tank would class it up, too. The "shear pin" Mustie pulled out appeared to be a nail, which might explain the condition of the lower unit.
Michael - is there a chance of you having a walk-on part in the next speedboat video - assisting Mustie1 - that would be awesome! Otherwise let’s hope he sees these comments and reaches out to you for information. Do you have any sketches/diagrams/manual PDFs that you can send him?
Brian is such a good buddy for all of your adventures. True friends are hard to come by these days, especially those who will dive into a lake fully clothed to keep you dry.
@@indydriver80 Jumping into the lake was cool and all but if Sammy Hagar was going to the lake with me I would expect him to bring the "WOOW OOH BEAU-TI-FUL GIRLS"!
That trip to the lake, and Mustie sitting out on the lake with the engine revving and the Wild Thing not moving, was just precious! I was laughing my ass off. But I have nothing but respect for the valiant effort!
Someone who commented on the previous video about it wrote that he used to have a bunch of them and rented them by the hour back in the 60's or 70's. Can't remember exactly, but the comment is still there if you are interested. Apparently they were not all that uncommon back then.
Really enjoyed the "ride out" follow along video, nice addition to the normal repair talk. Neat project. Anything involving boats is always tougher than normal projects.
This so reminds me of my time as a kid always working to make a small 2 hp and larger 16 hp Champion outboard motors to run for our camping trips. Oh the many failures we ran into and the crazy solutions to make things work with little to no budget. After many failures, when a success happened the joy was uncontrollable. You make me realize how lucky I was to have experience with broken outboards in my childhood.
Pray your on the mend Darren, health-wise. Thanks so much for the videos and hope you continue to be abundantly blessed. Take care. John here, photographing the back-roads of Northeastern Tennessee.
Hey Mustie1, Thank you, you have taught me enough over the last three years that I am now comfortably cleaning carbies and setting mixtures and idle speeds. I appreciate your knowledge, friendly chatter and videography.
So nice to see a couple of boys playing together in the water! Great project and nice to see the follow-up. Looking forward to the next one if there will be one. Hey, at least it didn’t sink!
Hi D. The lake is really a beautiful place!! It’s great that you have Brian(hope I spelled it right) to help!! He is an awesome guy!! Love the video!!! Too bad about the drive, but it sure was a lot of fun seeing the repairs!! Thanks again for all of your hard work!!! Looking forward to next week (as usual). Darren 😊😊😊😊😊
What a great display of middle aged jackassery!!. This was a great episode......and we got to see Sammy Hagar take a swim in a Mustie infested tranquil lake! Love it.
I had one of those boats 30 years ago. I believe it was called a hydromite. Just had a Johnson power head with a shortened shaft standard lower unit equipped with a thrust ring. Mine had the fuel tank built into the back of the seat. It was fairly slow but fun to run around as long as you were mindful of the depth. I think tearing the bottom out of these was a common point of failure. Power head upgrades are a definitely a possibility as long as the hull is reinforced around the mount. Keep up the great videos
you made it past the lily pads, thats a win :)). Plus we had a rescue by a Marine and Crusty off roading 👍....was that a Mercedes following you on the trail😦?!?
I would love to see you drive this boat, hope the guy offering help who lives near you can help out from the comment section. You always make me laugh, and i love how you just tear into everything. I'm probably one of ten woman viewer's, but at 53 i still wrench when i can because of the progressive MS that's causing severe muscle wasting on my entire left side. I just want to keep what i have left, and try to strengthen it, and avoid the wheel chair. People like you help motivate me to keep moving. G-d bless you and your wife and family.
Cotter pin is the pin that holds a bicycle pedal crank onto the shaft on older bikes. It’s a solid pin with a thread on one end and it’s secured in place with a nut. The fixing pin you’re describing is a split pin as that describes its design - pushed through the shaft and then the ends bent to secure it.
It was nice to see Brian show up in this one. That's a good friend of yours Darren and I'm glad you guys got to go spend the afternoon out on your lake. Nice.
Mustie always finds the weirdest and coolest things to play with got home from work at 4am CA time, yeah gonna be awake for a bit lol, poor crusty was getting beat up on that road!
To pull the spring into the groove (or hold motor brushes off the commutator) use waxed dental floss. It can be pulled out of a tiny little crack or hole and its strong enough to pull hard on springs. 😊
Greetings from southern Ontario Canada definitely a boat I couldn't get into I'm 6'4 so nice to watch whenever it gets sea worthy thanks for giving it your best shot at this barn find & as you mentioned at the end of the video it was abandoned for a good reason that's why I like seafleas
The ride you mentioned was the “spindletop” There was one at Six Flags Over Texas. I remember riding it ONCE in the late sixties early seventies. Kids would tell stories like “if you throw up, the puke with cover your face because of centrifugal force 🤢🤮😂 Thank GOD I never found out.
🤣 Sammy Hagar. They do look dang near alike. Especially when Sammy was in his younger days. Mas Tequila!!!! Also had a buddy of mine launch his John boat with a 25 horse on it. He put the plug in from the outside. About half way down the river boat start taking on water, plug came out. 😂. Luckily we weren’t to far from the boat ramp, the boat was brand new and he almost sunk it.
Wow that is a real cottage road. It reminds me of the road into our cottage when my grandfather used to have his VW pickup. Those boats won't even get up on plane. Like all the gimmicks from those days, they looked cool, but didn't go worth a crap. I think I saw someone on another channel getting one going.
You need to find a paint shaker. We used a paint Shaker and limestone screenings to clean the insides of tanks and it does a magnificent job. It's really loud!
I use a tiller for a gas tank cleaner and it actually works really good, you can vary the speed that it spins, you can just strap the tank right to the tiller blade or you could replace the tiller Blade with a lawn mower wheel.
Ty-Rap are still around, and they still have the metal tab in them. They're owned by ABB nowadays. We use them at work, probably tens of thousands per year. They're still definetly the best you can get. They have this "gun" for them too, which will tighten them to a specified setting and flush-cut the excess
Darren it's not really a FAIL it's just not your boat to spend time removing, repairing the engine. If it was yours I am sure you would invest more time and money into it. I just love that lakeside abode. It's so beautiful and fish as well, what a bonus.
I was laughing my ass off when you were trying to ride it into the water! That ride on the "road" to your cabin makes me anxious EVERY time!!! Need to start a GoFundMe to build a better road!! 😀
I can see Derik at Vice Grip Garage, getting an old cougar for a revival, finding zip ties on the motor mount and asking, "Have I worked on this before?"
The outro brings back memories of following VW vans and utes along some rough old trails years ago. If you owned the mini boat I'm sure you would find a way to graft another drive unit to it. Thanks great content as always. Dazza from Australia
As always a great adventure, I loved it! Well done lads, I never saw a little boat like that before. Sorry it didn’t work out but for entertainment value, 100%! 😂
Take advantage of the offer one of your commenters made about fixing that lower unit. He was absolutely correct about what the lower unit is. The power head ( engine) is the same, it’s a 70s 6hp Johnson or Evinrude.
That is one heck of a nice place by that lake, Fantastic countryside., you are very luck to live in such a wonderful part of the world. Thanks for sharing it. Shame about the little boat though.
One of my racing friends worked as a jet engine technician at an airbase, and one day I asked him if he could get some good quality zip ties because the ones we bought at Home Depot were really lousy- about 1 out of 10 would break the first time and they didn't last long in the heat. So he brought a bunch out to the track from the air base, and they were the same junk we got at Home Depot.
I remember buying several packages of zip ties only to discover that taking a bunch and bending them about halt would break in my hand. The store took them back and said it was because they were to old and shouldn't have been sold. But if they get that bad over a few years in storage then I don't want to use that crap even if I get factory fresh ones. It's only a sign that they will fail within a few years.
In the UK the fairground ride was called "The Rotor". Probably banned now. As a teenager in the 70's, us fellas were on it all the time during the Derby racing week. Always when unsuspecting ladies in skirts lined up...☺
Hey Darren, I think that " W " in Wild Thing may have been installed upside down, it should read Mild Thing, ha ha ha , still what a lot of fun and informative. cheers buddy, take care and stay safe. 👍
Apologies, Mustie. I had to laugh when you were sitting, revving that engine and quickly going nowhere at all. Hope you get to enjoy it sooner than later.
Of all the things I've ever used to help remove rust in a tank.. evaporust is absolutely 1000% the best. And you can just re-use it as many times as you want. The stuff is impressive. Totally worth the 35 bucks a jug. It lasts forever.
@@ricdintino9502 I think Mustie will eventually fix the gear box or replace it. It was a letdown finding the problem after hauling the boat to the lake
Crusty did a very good job on the track to the lake. I love those old V W keys, I remember with fondness the '56 beetle I had as a young man. Pity the 'boat' did not move, at least it floated
great job as usual ,you know what, you should have a cabin by this lake as a work shop makes life easy when testing those boats, very nice work keepon cheers
You getting in that boat was the best Herman munster impression I've ever seen hahahahahaha 😆 🤣 😂 😅 😄 😜 😆 lol! Just needed the music Herman mustie and cousin itt lol!
Cors sand little acid little water. It's only light rust . Or gravel. Done before. Comes out clean. Then rust treat. Industrial. Never have a problem. God old tank. )) Mick Australia 🇦🇺
Just as a thought, my wife had one of those stand on vibrating plates and it wobbled all the blubber in the hopes that friction burned it off..... One of those would be perfect for a fuel tank cleaner as it's not rotational it changes to semi random directions and speeds so perhaps one of those cheap from your local online secondhand market place could be stripped back to leave a good sized platform (that you stood on) that fuel tanks could be strapped to with small nuts and ball bearings or even just small size gravel I bet that would clean anything up better than a tumbler especially if you only wanted to be cleaning the base of a tank and not damage the sides. Thanks for all your shares, most entertaining indeed

We need to pump this comment up to the top so Mustie1 can see it and not get lost among the rest of them here.
Michael - is there a chance of you having a walk-on part in the next speedboat video - assisting Mustie1 - that would be awesome!
Otherwise let’s hope he sees these comments and reaches out to you for information.
Do you have any sketches/diagrams/manual PDFs that you can send him?
Mustie will sense this comment as he is the clairvoyant of repair
Brian is such a good buddy for all of your adventures. True friends are hard to come by these days, especially those who will dive into a lake fully clothed to keep you dry.
Brian has been there to help many times.
I really enjoyed watching you actually use Crusty and not treat it like a lifted F250 pavement princess.
That is a good friend and a true Marine that swims out into the lake to pull you back to shore.
I believe Brian is Darren's son?
@@V8SKULLS You would be incorrect believing that.
Especially after Mustie put that dirty fuel in Brian's gas tank.😂😂
LOL!
@@indydriver80 Jumping into the lake was cool and all but if Sammy Hagar was going to the lake with me I would expect him to bring the "WOOW OOH BEAU-TI-FUL GIRLS"!
Love seeing Crusty, out doing some work, in the woods. No fun just letting them set. Thanks for another great video.
For some people the entire video would be about taking Crusty down the trail. Sorry for the drive gear fail. Would've been a great water scooter.
That trip to the lake, and Mustie sitting out on the lake with the engine revving and the Wild Thing not moving, was just precious! I was laughing my ass off. But I have nothing but respect for the valiant effort!
Thanks Mustie for taking us all on another adventure. Really makes our day.
That little boat reminds me of something you’d find in an amusement park.

A 12 volt wiper motor with a hobby train controler for cleaning tanks. Or a rock polisher. You're a clever man, Mustie.. 😊
Exactly
He used to just jack up the rear end his truck, strap the item to the wheel, fire up the truck and let it run in low gear.
Variable speed portable concrete mixer.
That took me back to 1978 riding through the trails in my friends VW Bus. I still have a smile on my face! Crazy kids.
I would never had guessed a Volkswagen would be off road capable. Absolutely amazing.
Ha! I took my 86 transam down a small embankment, across a stream, and back up the other side. It didn't like it, but made it without any real damage.
World War II proved their capabilities off-road well

It can be pulled out of a tiny little crack or hole and its strong enough to pull hard on springs. 😊
Good thing your brought Sammy. David Lee Roth would have pushed you out past the weeds and then left to focus on his solo career.
The drive to the lake was the best part. I don’t know which one is better the boat or the VW flatbed. Thanks for taking me along for the ride.

Wouldn't it be awesome to see Mustie on Roadworthy Rescue
@@jarhead9690 Derek and Mustie together again. Well not again, you get the point.

Excellent video Mustie 1 :) and neat boat to try out sometime also remember them too from my childhood years of 1976 to 1994!
A very very rare time Mustie left the repair incomplete. Fantastic effort as usual though.
Had that boat been in the south,it would have been named Wild Thang.. 😆
As always a great adventure, I loved it! Well done lads, I never saw a little boat like that before. Sorry it didn’t work out but for entertainment value, 100%! 😂
Love how you always keep it real in all your content.
Evapo-rust removes the gas tank rust perfectly. You can even save it for another project. I found that watching James Condon
Take advantage of the offer one of your commenters made about fixing that lower unit. He was absolutely correct about what the lower unit is. The power head ( engine) is the same, it’s a 70s 6hp Johnson or Evinrude.
Maybe you should look out for an old jackhammer to restore, so you can then take it down the trail and break up those rocks
Wow, not so sure it is or ever was a speed boat. Mustie, you are the best.
At least your road back to the pond is better than about 90% of Illinois highways.
The sad part is that the back roads are usually in better shape
That is one heck of a nice place by that lake, Fantastic countryside., you are very luck to live in such a wonderful part of the world. Thanks for sharing it. Shame about the little boat though.
One of my racing friends worked as a jet engine technician at an airbase, and one day I asked him if he could get some good quality zip ties because the ones we bought at Home Depot were really lousy- about 1 out of 10 would break the first time and they didn't last long in the heat. So he brought a bunch out to the track from the air base, and they were the same junk we got at Home Depot.
I remember buying several packages of zip ties only to discover that taking a bunch and bending them about halt would break in my hand. The store took them back and said it was because they were to old and shouldn't have been sold. But if they get that bad over a few years in storage then I don't want to use that crap even if I get factory fresh ones. It's only a sign that they will fail within a few years.

Nice job sir good mini Boat Nice show 😃👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
You should have brought a little propeller for mixing concrete with you to the lake to chuck in your drill and limp back to shore with.
Great birthday gift to wake up to a new video thank fo all you do and all of the amazing videos
Apologies, Mustie. I had to laugh when you were sitting, revving that engine and quickly going nowhere at all. Hope you get to enjoy it sooner than later.
Well that sucks. You handled that with a great deal of humility and self-control.
Good evening from Perth Western Australia
