Air Boat Gets Second Chance In Life!

Thank you everyone who helped me get this airboat on the water. I'm glad that I gave it a second chance on the water. Special thanks to Sensenich for helping me out and Andrew for guiding me.

I've also watched this build from the beginning. It turned out beautifully. Nice work.

[@chefpinot45]

She turned out fantastic. I hope you make (made) a handsome profit on her. That was a ton of labor. Excellent job!

[@chucky9620]

What a cool unique build. I like your start to finish video for the finale. Well done sir! Be waiting to watch the next build!

[@EDUARDOSANCHEZ-df5pt]

Can’t wait for the next project man this one came out so good

[@bubbie3533]

Love this look back on my air boat project. ❤️

[@chrisbeekley1887]

For $175 both of them would of been sitting at my house.

[@thbd97]

Boat of them?

[@crankinbass5758]

Love the cinematics man. SERIOUSLY GOOD JOB

[@dapeman77]

Fantastic effort mate. It looks mint. Certainly shows the effort that went into the rebuild. Now can't wait to see what the next project will be.

[@ramishrambarran3998]

Nice work. Real comeback. Preserve the wildlife.........get some silencers on that Volks !

[@chewiepac5932]

Hello from Alaska, I gotta say I l9ve the fact that you don't pilot like a jerk,, two thumbs up

[@sccarguy8242]

When I first saw that boat I thought “well compared to his other projects, this should be an easy quick flip. Nothing to it”.... boy was I wrong !! Lol She came out awesome for sure !! I hope she delivers a good ROI but if nothing else you learned a lot !

[@jimmyspoon1477]

That's awesome ya took a booger and turned into a functional vessel. Good job 👍✌

[@acmesoundw]

Really enjoyed watching this project evolve while learning in the process. Thanks for the content, can't wait to see what's next.

[@TexansForChrist]

Very cool! Loved the views of the prop as throttle changed and of course the drone shots...and music. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@garfran8667]

You did an awesome job restoring the boat. Your video presentations are great as well because you do not all of that senseless chattering - many boaters and you-tubers can learn from you. Great work!

[@donaldyoung5473]

ThatBoatGuy...you've done an amazing job with that airboat! My congratulations to you on such a fine job...doesn't appear to be as loud as other air boats...amazing! I've been looking at my native Jackson MS currently under flood waters and that boat would be of such great use there in helping the residents. Please keep up the great work on boat restoration, marine engine repair...very motivational. God bless...

[@juliansteyn7050]

Dig this channel. Not many boat channels like this on the platform. Great work ⚡️👌🏻

[@BASSNGRASS]

That was awesome it’s nice to see something that used to be brought back to life 👍👍

[@happyhermit2022]

Excellent...good result from a very clever man.

[@ShowtimeXXX]

That was a cool series. Can’t wait to see what is next

[@lorenreece1665]

A labor of love. Looms very nice. You did a really good job now enjoy the finished product.

[@Crazystuffyousee]

Its always enjoyable to watch someone take pride in their stuff... Nice build.

[@mikeburrello4396]

Dude your hustle on this airboat is awesome, loved this journey man! Thanks for sharing!

[@jerryriggan]

Lookin good, you should be proud. I restored a few myself.Nothing like the first trial run. Keep it up .

[@jamesharmon5963]

Very glad to see you saved it. It’s a cool little boat. Thanks for sharing 👊

[@DanielGuillette]

Great build. Sure is nice to finally take the boat on water after working on it a while. I got a project boat (Carolina Skiff) last year with a good Yamaha, it was way worth it in the end once it’s done.

[@smokenjoe4022]

Awesome restoration bud what a rewarding project to bring life again to that old boat she looks very happy 😊!!

[@ybaldeagle]

What a cool adventure. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Great job on the boat!

[@davekai5074]

Great build. Labour of love. Hope you sold it for good profit. Job well done. Whole series on this boat was great.

[@texasflysuperstar]

Good job, now we just need to see you catch some fish from this thing! One of the most interesting boats in your fleet, very simple yet functional.

[@RichieRouge206]

You have done such an amazing job on this airboat. I’ve followed every episode and it’s been one of the most interesting and satisfying projects of them all - and that includes Hoovies Garage, Tavarish, WatchJRGo and Mighty Car Mods! Seriously

[@Speeddemon3]

OMG she looks fantastic! You'd never know that's the same boat! Great job!!!!!!!!

[@jbcXR]

Brilliant end to a good refurbish, well done dude, nice to see it perform well on the water ....👍🇬🇧

[@RoadhogRNA]

Man awesome job on that boat!!!! We followed you all the way and it’s all good to go now!!!!!!

[@grady.stu.8300]

That polishing job came out amazing. What a difference

[@heckmancs]

Definitely an awesome project! It's got to give you a huge sense of pride taking something broken down to something that is a one of a kind piece that operates like new. Well done my friend 👍 Can't wait to see your next project series.

[@rapidtransit8373]

A little elbow a little paint makes an airboat what it ain't. Good work guys that makes a nice fishing buggy for sure.

[@jcdesignsandboat-works8290]

Job well done young man!👍👍👊 Congrats!

Damn bro that engine sounds consistent as hell. Sounds like it’s running perfect. Looks so smooth I’ve never been on one but I boat all the time

[@gsftom]

Cool project. Thanks for sharing.

[@royboydanny1415]

Hi, what a fantastic machine, you must be so proud. You must keep this one .👍🇬🇧😀

Great project, Enjoyed watching from start to finish.

Nice work Boat and videos. 👍👏👏👏👏

[@tomhman6441]

That was a good series. I-am all for people who don’t mind trying. What a difference. Nice job.

[@trebo9974]

Awesome Job .....keep 'em coming!

[@sunshinestateframeofmind7329]

I have been watching your project from the first episode and have really liked watching it come together. It was great seeing it out on the water looking amazing. Great job on the build and the video production!

[@downdirty8543]

I’d have bought both and for that kind of money I’d have probably needed help getting them all home. Unreal! Nice job on the restoration, looks amazing!

[@geraldboardman2590]

Awesome Bro, been following the whole build. Glad to see it finally on the water!!, Well done!!

[@Tchristman100]

To me, it sounds like it isn't revving high enough-maybe decrease prop pitch.

[@NRGDiesel]

Thinking it's not firing on all 4 sounds like it has a miss

[@darrenrodd.]

Awesome project and end result watched all of this build, love to see you do a fishing boat well done man 👌

[@phillipsharpe6459]

Good job that man, respect from the uk, 😁👍

[@dougmoore5923]

Outstanding work - bringing it from sad shape to showroom ready! That’s what would give me the greatest amount of satisfaction. I don’t believe I would be able to sell it. But I would - and make a pretty penny too!

[@craig659]

Watched from the beginning you really did a great job. My only comment is the boat seemed slow I would think it would do 40-45 mph with that motor. Maybe it needs the pitch adjusted not sure how much hp you have 75 maybe. But nice job no matter how fast it goes.

[@Mekhanic1]

I agree. Looks like it needs less pitch to get more RPM

[@craig659]

@@Mekhanic1 I think it should turn 2200-2400 rpm at wot

[@cubie3835]

He said in a reply to a comment he didn't run it wide open since he was getting used to how it controlled.

[@jshrawder49]

Great restore!!

[@Maysin777]

Awesome job! Great price!Looking good...I would keep it. Be proud!

Great credit to you. You did a terrific job mate.

well done my man!!!!!cant wait to see whats the next project!

[@AmericanConstellation]

You did a really good job. That thing looks like a blast to drive. I saw two airboats for sale on Starkey Road.

[@juicebox1939]

Very nice work on what you did to that air boat keep it up!

[@tommymack8916]

Awesome restoration job! Been waiting to see this one run.

[@bills5621]

Great job dude. I’ve been impressed with all your work. Keep it up!

[@motomizfit2892]

By far the best build you’ve done! You hav me wanting to find an air boat now 😂 gotta get my Carolina skiff done 1st lol

[@tylerbutler2292]

Awesome job man. I’ve enjoyed watching this build come together. We run a lot of airboats over here in southeast Texas and I’ve personally rebuilt 3 of my own. It’s cool to go out and buy something, but it’s a completely different level of sentimental connection when you restore something and get to take it out for the first time. Great job and keep up the great videos man.

[@Thewrightstuff777]

Been waiting for this video! That’s such a cool boat.

[@thewatcher5271]

Yeah, I Watched The Whole Series & It's Really Cool. Almost Bittersweet, Though As This Is Probably The Last Video As He Moves On To The Next Boat . . .

[@nathanbrian1]

Wow! Incredible build! Zero thumbs down thus far says it all. Keep them coming dude

[@HP.Customs]

Turned out nice, great job.

[@kust112]

I have been following this build since you started it. Amazing build!

[@dubcoco1]

Fantastic! That was an awesome refurb. I just love those boats, but I'm from Louisiana. They are everywhere around here. ATB

That was nice. Do me a solid, wear a PFD while ripping around on the water having fun.🙂😎

Great series man can’t wait to see if you do another boat

[@matthewschwarz187]

Can’t wait for the next series! You should do a shallow water flats boat.

[@markthedrone]

Really good job. Boat looks absolutely brilliant 👌👌

[@victorrobinson7008]

Solar panels for the boat should help ! Add a radio with waterproof speakers.

These are the kind of videos I'd like to see. Saving boats from the boat auction

that is incredible I saw you do this from the start till now , well done , well done

[@speedtrapp219d2]

Great job boat looks great should fetch ya a nice payday brother love all your projects I’ve pretty much watched all of your boat content on your channel can’t get enough looking forward to the next one

[@floridafishermanpace798]

I'll bet she looks better than when she was new. Really clean. My dad's friend lost two fingers when a tree pulled his arm into an airboat prop. When I ride em, you can bet I'll be in the front seat.

Thank you that was my first airboat ride and the video was very well done
