A great build. Meticulously executed. My project is a 16.5 ft. Lund fishing boat, but I appreciate any restoration, that is done beautifully.

[@CRN8091]

She’s a weapon mate, awesome job!

[@justinroca2164]

This build is so freaking clean everything you need and nothing more it is honestly beautiful you did a great job perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality do you have great taste mate

[@jonnypace4655]

Thanks mate! I was aiming for a practical clean build.

[@seansweeney6960]

Mate, what a bloody build you've done there! Thanks for sharing. Beautiful rig! Meticulous design. No builder is exempt from teething issues no matter how much r&d.

[@jonnypace4655]

Thank you very much!

[@michaelwilkinson2928]

That's a lot of power for a 19' fishing boat!

[@randyrigsby8907]

You’ve built a one off badass boat. The casting platform is a must. No details skipped on this build, very very nice. The biggest benefit is there is nothing on the boat that your aren’t intimately familiar with. You know how and where to access every critical piece of wire, fuel lines and adapters. Not to mention if you ever care to sale it you will get top dollar. It’s top level build with some really nice features and an all around fishermen friendly vessel.

[@jonnypace4655]

Cheers brother. Its was well thought out and i spent many hours getting it perfect and exactly how i wanted it. Cheers legend 🤙

[@AngryMackAdventures]

absolutely gorgeous jonny! Just found this video, the Instagram photos of the build was awesome, this just shows that hard work paid off.

[@jonnypace4655]

Thanks mate, can’t wait to see how yours finishes up!

Really nicely done!

[@jonnypace4655]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@bubbleobill267]

Stepped pod, way to go. I’ve just finished a 1400 hr rebuild on my Sharkcat, it takes a special kind of crazy in the head to undertake projects like this!.

[@jonnypace4655]

Definitely does!

[@ReefRunnerRebuild]

give it some mate, looks like you had a good run out over the weekend.

[@mt4m1m]

I own a pride Montego man great boat I take it off shore tuna fishing down here in Melbourne she rides well that rebuild looks mint well done!

[@jonnypace4655]

Great boat when you add a little extra weight

[@Maddfisher]

Just a question when you pulled the floor up what condition where the stringers in and where they timber stringers ?

[@jonnypace4655]

These have no timber in the stringers mate. Only a small bit in the bulkheads.

[@Maddfisher]

Nice so do you think all Montego have glass stringer ? Where they in good condition?

[@jeremygoodger561]

Looks awesome. How long is your boat? Trying to work out if it is the pride 179 is the same a hill as pride pacemaker. I have been toying with the idea of converting my pride pacemaker into a centre console for a couple of years and now convinced! Well done

[@jonnypace4655]

It is 5.5m bow to transom. It is the V193 so it’s the next size up from the Pacemaker

[@christom1592]

Unbelievable rebuild mate!! How’d you attach the vinyl ester console to the poly? I’ve got the same console going into a v19

[@jonnypace4655]

It is just tabbed in, inside and out, then faired and gel coated.

[@christom1592]

What fairing/torture board did you use, did you buy it locally in mackay?

[@jonnypace4655]

@@christom1592 na i made my own mate. Its was 6mm HDPE so i could create a convex board. For flat surfaces just used a standard long board

[@thomaslindroos1667]

Buddy goes into detail on a topic and then says "won't go into that"

[@geetee8200]

Awesome build mate, love it! I’m doing up a boat myself & converting it to centre console aswell.. Planning everything out on a SketchUp type software sounds like the go. I can’t find a decent one thats doesn’t cost the earth, what program did you use?? if you don’t mind me asking..

[@jonnypace4655]

Nice work mate. Mine was all done on Autocad and Inventor mate

Very nice mate, ive tried to find the rebuild pics on instagram but cant find your proflie🤷‍♂️

@pacemaker_concepts mate 👍

[@jonny5714]

Swaps for a 92 Hilux?

[@Timbuctoo]

Unbelievable, dream boat. Scared to know what all that cost.

[@jonnypace4655]

Did all of it myself so half the price of purchasing one 😬

[@tyronhaynes6099]

Hey mate how much did the carbine console set you back if you don’t mind me asking?

[@jonnypace4655]

Hey mate, can’t exactly remember now, but was around $1k delivered I think. I modified the base quite a lot as they are just a flanged glue down type

[@tyronhaynes6099]

Cheers mate👍

[@jeffkeenan5439]

what type of gun did you use to spray the gelcoat ?

[@jonnypace4655]

Just a standard 2.5mm HVLP spray gun mate

[@jeffkeenan5439]

@@jonnypace4655 any thinning?

[@jonnypace4655]

Yes about 5-10% styrene

[@overlandoffshore5260]

Hey mate, how's to raptor hold up with staining from fish blood?

[@jonnypace4655]

It’s doesn’t hold stains mate. Bit of chlorine or dish washing liquid works good for dirt stains

[@overlandoffshore5260]

@@jonnypace4655 thanks, doing my floor with it in a few weeks that was my only worry 👌

[@jonnypace4655]

I wouldn’t use plain raptor as a non skid, add some sort of sand to give more grip. Do a few test pieces

[@overlandoffshore5260]

@@jonnypace4655 yeah I have bought some non slip Additive for it. We've painted cars with it before, thought it would be perfect for the boat.

[@rascaranx7909]

Hallooo bos.....

[@JakeKelsick]

Amazing work boss man! Looks so good can tell you really took your time with it! Is your insta still working couldn't find you for some reason would love to see some of the earlier stages of the build
