    The way the engine was cranking I thought that it either had a blow head gasket or some burnt valves. It definitely is easy to replace that head gasket , the engine will run so much better when that it done. I am looking forward to seeing Jens video. Your shop is looking awesome Chris , congrats on that ! 👍🎉🎊

    I tell you, Chris... whenever you post a new video, I must drop everything and make the time to view it right away. Your episodes are always so pleasing! Your method of doing things is the way I think I'd like to do it - so similar minds think alike, that sort of stuff. It's great that you can take something that's due for the crusher or junkyard and turn it into something that works again, getting some more use and usually a good time to boot! Keep 'em coming, please! Jenn, Gus and Turbo add an additional touch that's hard to beat... Definitely quality stuff!

As a doxie owner, always enjoy Gusman's antics and kudos on his new ramp. You have awesome content diversity!! Haven't found youtubers doing frequent boat "will it runs" and there are plenty of cool old derelict boats; hope to see you resurrect more of them!

That thing moves for a little boat. Between you and Jen’s talent I guarantee you can make that boat look 100% awesome again Loving the new garage Chris looks awesome. Can’t wait to see the finished product. I hope you Jen and Gus are doing OK with the bad air quality from the fires in Canada. Stay safe keep up the good work loving the videos.

    @Scottinqc 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    just found this vid, with the boat I just finished, I also had to remake the front mount, and did similar. A couple good side plates off a trailer hitch, and some 3/8 U-channel I had sitting around to have it sit on the stringers. No more wood to rot, (I redid the whole wood structure..... the floor was GONE) and the engine weight is on the "structural members". for the bilge pump, I just welded a small bracket onto the engine mount, and hose clamped the pump to it. Works as good as new, nothing to rot, and easy to service

    There’s nothing like a boat to make your troubles go away and when you get it for a song, that’s the icing on the cake. Most people shovel money into boats faster than they can earn it, so getting one you can afford and managing to enjoy it is just the best.

A dozen cars, 2 boats, a rhino just like yours, 3 motorcycles, 2 snowmobiles and a handful of other stuff.

      Was here to say I also vote that you keep flying that Freak Flag!
      I wish I hadn't cut mine long ago becuz SCUBA was a PUTA when my locks would inevitably loose from its binds and make it like swimming thru kelp...
      Love the boat.
      If you cleaned out that hole back to transom, reboarded/released then replaced engine floor and blew some 2 part epoxy foam it would be stronger than new!
      But yeah, pulling the motor starts to make it hard to stop restoring...
      Love it!
      Rebuilt/built a few in my Waterman Days.

    This video clearly showed me why I gave up working on my simple aluminum fishing boat. First, I didn't know what I was doing, second, I didn't know where to learn how to do it, and third, I didn't know where to find the parts I needed. As a woodworker, I'm worried about the rotten wood which originally supported everything inside the hull (as well as the condition of the transom). You obviously are very skilled and knowledgeable and I hope it all works out well.

    Great boat. You've inspired me to get one now! I've found one 4 miles up the road. £800. 29ft , on a trailer, With a 90cc evenrude outboard. Needs a transom and a 2" running bar along the Hull.
