With work like this, it wont take long and you will have many,many subscribers. I look forward to your next project.

Your chanel will raise Like the sun continue this amazing work. You are the best!

[@Kings_Wharf_Restoration]

@@michalisoctapodis997 I hope so Michal! One day if I ever start making money from KZbin, I can afford to put more money into the boats and do cooler builds!

[@markwharton7873]

For a person who says he isn’t a mechanic, you sure look the part. Very good work

[@timbonjovi]

I would love to do this to a 1959 or 1960 fiberglass boat. Many had tail fins and rounded windshields.

[@Kings_Wharf_Restoration]

I know exactly what boats you're talking about! Almost like an old Cadillac?? I've seen a couple come up for sale and but never pulled the trigger. Next time I see one for sale I'll grab it!

Without power trim, looks like you need to tilt motor up another hole to get more hull out of the water and gain some top end. I have an 83 75 Evinrude that I rebuilt; super simple to work on and for the weight gives a ton of power. Subscribed!

[@Kings_Wharf_Restoration]

Yeah I definitely needed a little more trim. Best motors around, late 70s early 80s Evinrude/Johnson. Like you said, just so simple to work on.

Another awesome job. 👌🏻 Well done mate. Keep the vids coming. Love your work 😊

such quality work, gained a sub! picking up a '93 bass cat pantera 2 tomorrow and think I am going to do a video on that project, does not need a lot of work thankfully

[@Qutlass]

Very skilled! I like the format.

[@Kings_Wharf_Restoration]

Thanks Qutlass!, I like the text instead of talking too. Its easier to do, plus I'm not interrupting the video to talk! Thanks for the comment!

Awesome job

Impressive video, just like the other one you got. I myself am restoring and old 1982 Sea Ray 170 but of course with a much more amateur approach to it. Given the professionalism you have displayed in these restorations, I guess you make a living out of this? Anyway, congratulations, keep up the good work

[@Kings_Wharf_Restoration]

Thank MN! Sea rays are nice boats! Hahaha I try my best, but no I don't make a living from this, that would be cool though! The sad part is I would make way more money per hour just focusing on one part of the restoration, like buffing/upholstery and doing that as a business. But this is more fun. Best of luck with your restoration!! Thanks again for the comment!!

I use an electric carving knife. Works amazingly well for foam.

[@Kings_Wharf_Restoration]

I've heard about that Mike! Maybe I'll have to get one.

[@Billyo234]

I love the boat hull style u do crazy good work however the color combos are killing my ocd lol brown boat grey carpet red and black interior white engine tan foam pad

[@Kings_Wharf_Restoration]

Thanks Billy! The boat is Red and silver metal flake. I used to go all out and buy custom colour carpets, but it doesn't make me any money, so I go with this cheaper indoor/outdoor carpet. The 3 they come in are brown, black and and this gray/blue colour. Black would look awesome, but people would scream at me for it being too hot in the summer. Ive also tried to painting an Evinrude black but I ended up hating it. I try to keep the engines close to the original colours (Evinrude is a slightly off white, but nobody ever notices). Thanks for the comment!

[@Billyo234]

@ please don’t take it as me being an ass cause that wasn’t my intentions I assumed costs of materials was a factor. I did notice the hull was red at the end of the video out in the sun but it was after I made the comment lol didn’t older Evinrude engines come red as well or was that johnson

[@yagomojaes2254]

Why there is no gauges?

[@Kings_Wharf_Restoration]

The main reason I don't put gauges in boats is money. The only way this boat thing I'm doing makes any money is when I sell the boat, as I'm not making money from KZbin. Lets say I put new gauges in for $300/$400, would I be able to get an extra $300/$400 out of the boat when I sell it? Maybe, but I would just break even on the gauges (I would be buying and installing them for free at that price). So to get anywhere I would want an extra $500/$600, and there's no way gauges would get me an extra $500. I could put the old gauges back in and maybe get the tac and speedometer working. But the other 3 were trim gauge, fuel gauge (must have had a built in fuel tank at one point) and oil pressure I believe. I knew the engine I was going to be buying would be a 2 stroke without trim, so those gauges are useless. The fuel gauge is also useless, as there's no built in fuel tank anymore. So it comes down to, would it be better to have only 2 working (possibly) gauges or cover all the gauge and have none. Either way it sucks, I know. But if you want a speedometer you can get free one on your phone, and the only time you need the RPM gauge is setting the idle or trying to tune your engine. Most people just want to go for a ride on the lake.

[@yagomojaes2254]

@@Kings_Wharf_Restoration I would reuse the speedometer just to maintain some originality and make it easier to sell but that's a smart decision not to put the gauges back. Saves a lot of time and headaches too!
