I Bought a Grandpa Boat !

[@nkystevep7007]

Make a ramp so Fred can come aboard

[@gregoryjones2665]

I bought a 2004 Bentley Cruise 200 “grandpa” boat for $3000. Spent $2000 on redoing the seats. Cleaned her up good and she’s a dime today. Living on the lake it’s the perfect sunset cruise machine. Love the channel bud. Keep it up👌

[@timmitchell8784]

And in the end…. We finally get to see Alfred launch a boat!!!

[@alcidesjuarez6373]

That will be great!

[@alcidesjuarez6373]

Are you going to film the entire restoration? Share it! It is so much fun!

[@tomwestling2803]

I can't wait to see this rebuild series I will be following it religiously and all so can't wait to see the finished product it should be a lot of fun to watch.

[@earlaloomis4949]

Love it! The two best days in a man's life is the day he buys a boat and the day he sales it

[@DrJeffM]

Looking forward to watching the series. The motor ran, the toons are in good shape. You are ready to have some fun.

[@jacquesafley5828]

You and your family will have tons of fun with this ! 👍😃

[@josephbenz5520]

Got a toon for the misses so could take all kinds and grandchildren out older one fun for them all work for me but love the memories we make

[@patrickdiehl6813]

Nice find 👍 I would put a Tiki Bar in that open space 🤣🤣🤣 Can't wait to see more of the Grampa series 👊

[@RatdogDRB]

Bringing this back to fighting form is a series I'm going to enjoy. THIS is what regular folks can do.

[@MatthewBradley1]

New series! Do it up! Restoration and refit videos are the best.

[@pblakehenshawlaw]

Grandpa series!!! Can't wait! Way to go Alfred, this will be the best yet, no doubt.

NICE! lovi'n to see a new series around Miami with Alfred making a scene with his new Grandpa-pontoon!

[@dianesaumure9729]

Congrats on your purchase , your all gonna have so much much relaxing g and fishing😊😊

[@gavin8tor]

Nice!... Enjoy those moments in South Florida❣️ Looking forward to the views.👍

[@douganderson771]

Best boat I ever owned by far , was my pontoon. We lived on a chain of lakes in Michigan, load up the kids motor around a bit , stop at the pizza place . Drive on over to the shallows or the sand bar , drop the ladder and take turns with the other adults watching the kids have a great evening. We swapped out kid duty with water skiing . You won't be unhappy with this boat and momma will come around when she sees all the fun.

Outstanding! She's a peach! Capt. Alfred!

[@ryanmatchett6481]

On the go ,with the chit show!! Congratulations Alfred!!

[@AdventuresofHappyOurs]

Congrats! Pontoons are so easy to customize. You can get Bimini tops for $150 and new seats pretty much mail order (Overtons has nice selection). Make a tiki barge! Looking forward to this series and you crashing into the ramp docks for a change lol. Good luck!

[@janicerees2073]

What an adventure... look forward to the updates .... thank you

[@danielyoung7175]

Dude, that engine fired right up. I’m looking forward to see the restoration process. I predict shiny aluminum on the next episode.

[@bettymaverick1098]

Alfred's such a happy guy!

[@theelizards2943]

Congratulations, Alfred the family gonna love it and I can’t wait to see your new episodes. Ps name it on after one of your pop favorite cigars. I’m sure you’re gonna be enjoying smoking while you’re chilling with your beautiful family. Enjoy it in good health Alfredito.👍🏽

[@noahm4464]

Ohhh Boy! We're gonna have some fun!!!!! There just something about working on a boat!

[@2BearsOutdoors]

We know you are OG! 😂 In all seriousness, nice boat brother. Watching now. Blessings brother

[@ronaldwilkinson4330]

Oh are you in for a treat!! Finished a 3 year (I'm retired) 24' SunTracker. You are going to work your ass off removing the carpet. Polishing the aluminum-the black oxidation NEVER STOPS. If I never see another aluminum boat I'm running away as fast as I can. Currently back in fiberglass !! 1982 18' Action Marine

Sweet, I think you'll have fun with this boat out on the water when you get it up to your liking! 👍😃❤️

[@teresacastro8899]

Good morning, Mr.Alfred!good to hear from you!

[@AmericanConstellation]

There is a reason and a place for every boat. I've had a few. As long as it floats....It's fun.

[@mikelove6417]

No matter how many times I hear it always makes me feel better when dealing with problems on my boat. "new boats are problems used boat are problems". You have to stick to the grandpa them as you restore it

[@jelly_fishing]

Not a Granda boat but a family cruiser !!!

[@garynoll700]

Oh. Yea you can feed fred from your grampa boat. Another chit show for sure, enjoy mister alfred.❤❤

What a great buy! Can’t wait to see what you get into with the grandpa boat series

[@ElliotP27]

I'm in the process of actively shopping for a new Pontoon boat. One of the ones I looked at is a 2024 Godfrey Sweetwater! I'm old enough to be a grandpa so it's OK! Looking forward to your progress on it!

[@russellcaywood1459]

Good walk around recommend luxurious carpet and I like your content.

Grandpa boat awesome . Can you please do a video on grandpa boat restoration, cleaning first ride out.

[@dirtybuzzard5977]

That is awesome and a good deal . Johnson and Evinrude are great outboards with interchangeable parts. Still got my grandpas Evinrudes and Johnsons from the 30’s and 40’s and they all still run great .. I use his 1946 Johnson 5hp for my kicker . I would love to have a toon that sizes .. 👍👍👍👍👍

Good for you Alfred, I am happy for you. Make sure to gator proof the perimeter as gators love to stretch out on pontoons.

YEEEESSSSSSS !!!! Leasure time tours with Alfred ! Bro you have to make this series happen !! Bro it starts with you rebuilding this pontoon !!! Bro , hey , I know where there’s a VERADO 300 with low hrs on it.

[@AlfredMontaner]

We put the sunk Verado on my Grampa boat ?

[@JackCrevalle73]

Yeah bro !! You have enough connections in the industry , someone should be willing to take on this project. Redue the boat beef up the transom and out that bad boy on your Grandpa boat !!!

[@JackCrevalle73]

@@AlfredMontanerbro forget the VERADO. Your in SOFLO , anything less then trips just isn’t sexy. Picture this. You find someone to engineer a transom on there and you load her up with wait for for it now. 3 outboards !! They don’t have to be big bro put ( 3 ) 50s on the back of that pontoon. Alfred you’d have the sickest pontoon in south Florida bro. Think about the merch sales. Hats , shirts , hoodies. Bro the content you could get from all of this.

[@darrellsmith5395]

Alfred you need to share his link unable to find it. Looking forward to this!!!

[@MikeyDee25]

Yo Alfred, props (no pun intended) to you! Great idea for the whole family to enjoy - a grandpa boat! Damn, now we have to call you El Capitan - the King is dead!

[@wmason1961]

I would be offended that you call a boat just like mine a grampa boat. Except that I am a grampa 9 times over and traded in my Sea Doo in 2021 for my new pontoon. You will like spending a day on the water and coming home, NOT exhausted. This will be outstanding for cruising the canal systems and exploring like you did in the dingy series. I do look forward to watching you star in the chit show instead of narrating it. Wait for it.

[@theelizards2943]

My God a shed, Alfred I caught that at the end and I almost pissed myself😂😂 Shit you can build a tiny home on it if you want to and you can set it up with your camera gear, etc. I see your vision it’s has a lot of possibilities 👍🏽👍🏽 go for it I’ll be watching.

[@JeffinLowerAlabama]

Alfred, Pedro's first expression says it all, after the "Look" from your wife. Boat USA for the win. Jeff in LA USA

[@downunderfulla6001]

I’ve never seen a boatyard that doesn’t have a water tank to back the boat up to and test. I think that’s awesome, nice big platform to film, bbq and tour in comfort 🍺🍺

[@eastwes92]

Dude they totally overlooked the connection for a hose and pumped water into the lower gear unit! 🤣😂😂

[@ItsLookingUp]

What was in the Windex bottle? My brother and I did a full restore on a 22 ft pontoon. We replaced the wood, carpet, seats, console and gauges. Very nice lake boat now! Looking forward to see your progress.

[@gckshea]

Ditto! What's in the sprayer?

[@andyanderson6668]

Little bigger motor and you can outrun the snakes, LOL

[@frankm4277]

Hey there Alfred. Good luck with your new and exciting hobby. Just takes patience (and some finances). I know you have the contacts and references of people to answer the questions along the way. And your weather in your location is nice all year around, so it is not like being in the northeast where seasons are limited. Hey, I fixed my central AC with a $5 condensor from Amazon on the blower motor, so anything is possible if you know what to do.

[@ROSINRANCHFL]

Put some Seafoam in it and letsss gooooo

[@BigJonLP]

Very nice ❤

[@bertmyname]

Chit show yooooo !

[@gungadinn]

Been down the road with pontoon boats. Two areas of concern. Water inside the pontoon and rotting deck materials. People that have had to replace the deck, frequently don't use marine grade plywood. Exterior grade plywood glue doesn't like water, and will de laminate between plies. Pull the bung plug, and lightly pressurize the tube. Listen for air leaks. If you can hear air leaking, spray the welds with soapy water and look for bubbles. Don't use more than 2 psi.

[@alfonsotobenas417]

a diamond in a rough. congrats brother

[@keithscudder7136]

Wow ! Grandpa just got a flotation device. You need to re-power it with a pair of Mercs and go out Haulover. Congratulations ! Wasn't aware that your Johnson smokes, is he old enough ?

[@ILMC1961]

What did you use to clean the toons? Looks awesome, good luck on the project!😃

[@juanitotorres9353]

Alum acid acid for aluminum

[@ILMC1961]

@@juanitotorres9353 👍

[@juanitotorres9353]

If you spray it with the acid then let it sit a couple minutes then pressure wash the surface will be raw so you would need to polish it to prevent it from calcium eating it

You've signed off on it, she's already got skin in the game now.

[@kencrouch668]

Can you make a camera boat out of that and go to the sandbar- or anchor out of the way at the boat ramp and film? I'd leave the Johnston on there. So yes - grandpa series!

[@johngauntlett4915]

Alfred, I can see the Grandpa series now. You should stick about a 150 horsepower and call it Grandpa Alfred's Fast and Furious series.

[@straybullitt]

That boat is just begging to have the Verado hung on the transom.... 😎

[@johngauntlett4915]

@@straybullitt I was going to suggest that, it might be just a little bit Overkill. Alfred freaks out when a boat goes over 60 mph, he would lose his mind if it went over 110 mph. I know 150 horsepower motor would not fit on that boat but could you see Alfred freaking out at 70 -75 miles per hour.

[@straybullitt]

@johngauntlett4915 Oh, it will fit! Whether or not the structure of the hull will hold up to the power is the question. My grandparents had a 24 foot Kayot pontoon boat powered by a 100 horsepower Mercury "Tower of Power' when I was growing up. It would actually go fast enough to pull a skier! The Verado would make that little 15-footer hum along pretty good!

[@johngauntlett4915]

@@straybullitt when I said verrado I was thinking of the 600 hp sunk verrado.
