I owned a Reef Raider, with fantastic hulls in a seaway! Great to see you kept one alive!

[@vangyang1809]

Mate I really enjoy watching your videos! It's great seeing how much a little TLC can turn an old boat into something you can really be proud to own. Please keep up the videos

[@tjmarine7121]

Thanks for the encouragement mate. More videos coming soon.

Hi if you still have the boat, how would you describe the handling in chop? Does it cut through like butter or does it bash through it ? I have regal and im just having a dislike to the way it cuts through rough chop.

Awesome channel! Stay in touch! 👍😁👍

The boat has come up great. The budget also appears reasonable for the upgrades and improved appearance. I am curious about the green under the old stickers, is this just the old sticker backing after removing the old crazed top blue layer? Or is it some type of coating on the gel coat for the stick to adhere to?

[@tjmarine7121]

Glad you like how it turned out! The stuff under the old stickers was the glue. Was pretty hard getting it off.

Love your videos and love these old, but classic boats, much better than the new ones. Do you sell these boats, and what Prado do you tow with petrol or diesel? It is my dream to own a rebuilt 20 ft Bertram or Reef Ranger. Good stuff and thanks again.

[@tjmarine7121]

Thanks mate. I do sell them once they are finished so I can buy new ones. I tow with a petrol Prado.

I have the same boat but with a 135hp Merc on a pod. How did you do the paint?

[@tjmarine7121]

Which paint mate?

[@tucoselby]
