Very nice job on the boat and for what you paid you got a heck of a deal.

What did you expect for $400 dollars. The deck was worth that! Nice rebuild, but something tells me you made this video to play victim for more views(just my opinion)…

What other repairs were done other than cosmetic?

Very nice restoration on an older Nitro. I'm 76 and have owned and restored several bass boats and I can appreciate the work you have done and to encourage you to think about your next project.

Супер потрудитися та отримати чудового човна!

Grate to see you enjoying your boat you did grate job on refurbishing the boat. I have a ranger that is going to get a new look to.

احسنت رحلة جميلة جدا وجذابة استمتعنا معك في هاذا اليوم الجمل قارب جميل جدا ماشاءالله تبارك الرحمن أتمنا التوفيق والنجاح الدائم لك ياصديقي 😉👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😃🤿🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦👍🤝👍

Do you have a lineup on a new project boat?

On this video now about to watch the next one keep up the great videos

Looks great 👍 makes me want to try my hand at a project like this

What did Copart say was wrong with it? A lot of times they will say hull damage and never show any pictures

What I’d like to know is… Hth did the previous owner blow the engine ? How many hours did it have on it ?😮

$400.00 for a SCAG even with a blown motor is a great deal!

What is the horse power of the motor to get 45-50 mph? How much does the boat weigh? Thanks for the reply? Great job by the way!!

Beautiful boat had the same on 1997 it had a 90 evenrude on it

I love stuff like this!!! Why buy a $90K boat!!?!? Just upgrade a gem like this!!

Where did you get the buffing wheel for your grinder? I can’t find one on amazon

SI DOBREJ👍💪

Laughed my butt off at the 22:32 second mark. You've got my kind of sense of humor, dude.

nice find!

The quality of the Scag looks double that of the Hustler.

While he had the blower shroud off he should have tightened the sump bolts as these always leak unless you tighten them each time it's open.

I know I'm in some way weird, but watching someone make something like this look new again, kind'a gives me a woody!😊 Leaves a feeling of accomplishment when you're done. Well done.

Ace I would probably put a new lifter in that position if not all four, probably needs rings too and a cylinder hone. Did you see how long it took to pump up those lifters? They all need changed. That is one nice mower, like for proffesionals.

Just tightening the drain hose by just twisting the hose is inadequate. Almost guaranteed to leak after it runs awhile.

Do a compression test on all the cylinders. If it's low (50-100), then put oil on top the piston through the plug hole. Run another compression test with the added oil. If the compression raises, you'll know your rings are either stuck or need replaced.

Great job, a lot of attention to detail. Maybe I missed it but would you share the amount of man hours you spent and total cost of the entire project. This had to be a labor of love and for me I enjoyed watching the transformation. Congratulations on a job well done.

Look at all the "You should of done this and done that"

Why would you not wash it prior to working on it? Not only would it be easier and more pleasant to work on, it would prevent contamination from the dirt and you'd see any other problems hidden under the dirt. A few minutes well spent.

The new motor is very dirty and rusty not good work

Very informative repair video. Lots of repair videos on your channel, are you up for a collaboration? Hipa supplies parts for small engines and maybe we would work together to help more people in the community.

Great job

Sounds like you got a great deal and easy fix 😊

Don't waste your time and grease doing those front bearings - they are sealed bearings and the grease will not get into the bearing, the same as the spindles on the deck, or most of them. The grease nipples are just a sales gimmick.

Boat came out great! Texoma?

I’m doing a skeeter myself and she was rough to start (still rough tho lol) and am already in it about 3k in and just past the halfway point to completely restored but by the time I’m done I’m looking right around the same value between 15-20k (probably worth 20-25 if I do power pole and upgrade trolling motor and fish finder but that’s adding like 7k) all with a total of 4500 to get it back to what it was and then some. Hoping to wrap up the rest of the bodywork this weekend then I’ll just have flooring and a bit of fiberglass in the bilge to replace and she’ll be show room ready. Buying used when it comes to boats and dumping sweet equity into it is always the way to go imo. Only thing in not looking forward to is the longee board. I’m looking at getting another to pay for the upgrades to mine now tho and maybe put some money back in my pocket😂

Surely five minutes and a coat of paint on the flywheel would have protected it from rusting like it already has and made it last a little longer. Being American made it won't last very long anyway, but you could try to help it a bit.

Love the job you did on this boat..took your time and did it right

Nice job but check the oil the correct way 😮

No way would I use a fram filter period 😢

Looks good.

Watched the video of your fixing up the boat. Much respect for that job. Then I saw the thumbnail for this video and needed to see it on the water. God is good. Much success on the channel and your future endeavors. 💯🫡 Sub'd

Click bait. Nice restoration but give me a break. $600 not a chance. Maybe add a zero

Ok so ppthe next timme you do a vidro of your boat running, please show us the boat running instead of your mouth. I t would nice how the boat performs, eg. hold the phone / camera up to show the boat running.

Nice work. Love seeing a discarded item come back to life! Your boat turned out beautifully!

Where are these 600 bass boat deals. Where I say.

Take it out and run it. Probably carbon buildup.

If you got a title for it and the motor it wasn’t abandoned

May I buy some parts from scrap mower

That thing had a very rough life! Better check a lot of things!
