They have grown up around hearing and smelling the equipment. Its not seen as a predator so don't waste energy and miss out on food. Eat poop sleep breed. Except hunting season humans can cause accidents, so stay weary, outrun or die with cars, equipment is noisy but slow

I'm rebuilding a 1973 240 aquasport now it was a inboard with a sidesole. I did a 1976 22-2 about 10 years ago great boat. Great stuff!

Great build and thanks for sharing. Where are you located? You’ll be much better off going with a flotation bracket. These 222s are sensitive to weight of the heavier 4strokes.
@deepdivesc2 ай бұрын
Been looking for one. They are just so expensive. I raised the floor 3", all the wood is being replaced with Coosa (30% weight savings so they say), and shifted the tank forward. Also, with the bit of flotation the bracket gives... hoping it will sit right. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the episode. I like the go board knowledge. Keep the videos coming, I really appreciate how consistent you are with the vid uploads. I have a boat project that's in its 8th month and I'm battling with getting her done. I've watched you from the first vid and I'm jealous of all the space you have in your shop. Its going to make painting soooo much easier. Keep up the good work. I can't wait to see your project in the water.

Much appreciated! The Go Board has worked out well… you’ll see in the next episode. Yes the shop is a must have… probably wouldn’t have tackled this if I had to do an outdoor build. Thanks for watching!

Nope, depends on incoming clarity. If seen it aqua blue but it usually not good viz. I’ve dove it a few times.

Hay nice project. Just came across your video and see that you might be having a tough time sanding the transom. Once you put the compound on start sanding within 20 minutes and it will sand like butter easily done by hand blocking. It’s the same as body filler if you wait too long it’s like sanding concrete. 28 years in a body shop pro tip. I hope that helps, can’t wait to see it done.

@reefslayer216 ай бұрын
If you raise the floor up like three inches or more it will help a lot in keeping water out of the boat, especially if you’re going to be diving out of it
@deepdivesc6 ай бұрын
Thanks for heads up and for watching! I was hoping by shifting my fuel tank forward a foot (or 1 1/2 feet) and also have my battery compartment up front, that would offset some of the weight of tanks. If I raise the floor any higher I'll have to adjust the gunnel brackets also. Yes, my main goal dive boat when finished. All the best!

Well… better to over build than under… thanks for watching Larry! give me some advice for the future… like how much glass do I need on the deck? Front and back? That would be helpful…
@larryjohnson55977 ай бұрын
That is way too much glass and coosa for that little boat and engine, we do the same thing for 36 foot boat with twin 350 mercury and brackets!

I wish they'd put a drain at the back bottom of the tank with a line run to the transom, you could completely drain and flush the tank off you ever get water or sediment in it

Yeah I debated wood vs Coosa for awhile…. I kept going back (jumping forward in my mind) to the day I sell it…. I can advertise as a “wood free” hull. I should recoup the extra expense then… If I don’t sell it… my grand kids will have a nice boat lol.. thanks for watching 😊
@larryjohnson55978 ай бұрын
Great job and it will be like new even when the dinosaurs come back! But that said, seems like a lot of extra work and expense for that small boat should’ve just went back with plywood it would last another 40 or 50 years
