[@paulh7589]

Great videos, I've watched 3 of them in a row. Time with friends and family means everything. My friends and family are getting older and all of us realize it can't go on forever. It makes us all appreciate every moment together more than ever. I wish I could stop time, but if I could the next generation would never get a chance to grow old like we have. There is something very cool about having close friends for over 60 years and it's also very cool to have a close, large family. I feel very fortunate.

Just recently found you guys, after scoring my own 1989 Bayliner Ciera 24' cruiser. We're working to get her cleaned up, after MANY years of non-use, so we have our work cut out for us. Love the channel, looking forward to viewing more of your adventures. I'm retired, so I'm older, but living our own dreams after a lifetime of making a living and raising a family. Thanks so much for the inspiration.

[@rickhurt7007]

Videos like these are what people need to see. People new to working on cars don't usually realize those skills transfer to other things. To have cool expensive things you either need a lot of money to just buy them or have a little bit of money and use your skills to fix the cheaper broken toys that you couldn't afford to buy in good condition. A little bit of money and time using your mecanical skills will get you those things you couldn't afford to just go buy. This is a perfect example of how to get things you want. Keep posting videos and showing people what can be done if you just try. Love the channel keep it up.

[@bryanhorne8202]

Great video!!!! Looks like you guys are having fun. My first episode was when you got this fabulous boat for 5K and I’ve just had to keep up to see how it all turned out. I love cars too, so I became a hooked subscriber right away. Loved Aaron’s comment about the “three landings.” Have a great time with your family on the remainder of your time there on the lake.

[@robmac6696]

We have a 24 ft Cruiser on Lake Cumberland in Kentucky. Always love the overnight trips into a cove. We try to find a cove with a small waterfall, the sound will relax you immediately and is great to lull you to sleep at night. You really need to name the boat. Something that is you... Good luck and enjoy the aquatic lifestyle!!!..

[@kw57rx8dr.9]

A little piece of advice, let out the rope a bit more on your canoe when towing it, about 10 to 15 feet of line to allow it to get out of the boat wake it takes stress off the tow rope and cleats and just generally lets the boat follow easier.

[@johnpeschke7723]

absolutely....

[@southernboi21]

The automatic anchor winch is called a windlass.

Yes! We need one!!

[@marvindebot3264]

A windless can can be manual as well. It may also be a capstan which is the vertical version of a windlass.

I've imagined taking my wife on an extended ocean journey perhaps in the Florida keys. Planning overnight anchorage around big weather and anchoring in the wind shadow of Islands. Dinner out on the town one night, the next, a private island scouted from google earth. It would be like living in an RV on the sea, she and me.

[@JimmyLuffjr]

lol I was fixing to say he needs practice on landing. He nailed it on his comments.

[@vonheise]

Josh has the biggest dead cat muff I have ever seen! We are 75 now and our larger boating days are over but we still camp. I built all the cars back when it was easy and fun to build 'em and go to the strip, but now we camp and kayak. We follow sailing channels and camping, but finding your boat channel was a real treat. We have been to a lot of lakes in the central US, but you can't beat Arkansas/ Southern Missouri for the beauty and clear water! I chose to never put my boats in saltwater for obvious reasons but since you can rebuild anything, go for the Keys... We will follow the camper renovation. Ours is fairly new, but we love ideas on how to make it better, especially the electrical and sewage systems. I so wish that KZbin and Patreon were around when younger as our lives would have been totally different! Keep it up, edit less and produce more...

Key West the best, a choice worth considering - there's Ft. Meyers to the Bahamas within boating range. And Miami is the largest tourist attracting water area Internationally in the U.S. Be sure and wash that boat good coming out of the salt water.

Many years ago I was going to buy a plane to fly back and forth to Billy Mitchell airfield there in Frisco on the weekends. I had already bought a blazer to keep over there as a beach buggy. Then the government dropped the MOA to 3000 feet or below for private aircraft. Forcing us into the bird strike areas of the sky. I’m not sure if those restrictions are still in place, but I thought I had a solution to the 12 hour 600 mile drive. From my driveway to Hatteras village it is exactly 600 miles.

@@sirtango1 Knowing how the government works it's probably still in place, wouldn't know for sure as I'm not a pilot. I live about 4 hours away from Ocracoke and about 2 hours from Emerald Isle.

It is so nice to see a couple enjoying friends, family and honest good fun. Especially, happy to see folks who are appreciative of the things they have and have honestly worked for. As far as future destinations..... I would suggest a Florida adventure. If I had your boat, I would put in on Lake Harris near Leesburg, FL. That puts you on a lake chain that interconnects with 20+ gorgeous lakes. Bassmasters tournaments have staged there. You could wake up on a different lake each morning while traveling gorgeous interconnecting canals during the day. Great filming ops. Your friend can fly right in to Leesburg airport ...... right on the shore line of Lake Harris. That would be an amazing adventure.

[@KeithZim]

This guy is not wrong. Don't get caught up in this. That is a club you do not need to join. But, you can get some great deals from these dudes as they feel the need to flex a bigger boat next summer. Its a revolving door, you can spend another 100, 200, 300, 500k on your next boat, or just pay someone 10k to put in a full range audio system with lots of low end and attract more attention on the lake. Music brings the people. You have to spend close to a million to stand out from all the 30-40 foot SeaRays.

Low key....I've been watching since you guys scored this boat. Didn't subscribe til tonight, but I'll tell you why I did. There's multiple reasons. First, I love a great deal!! When you said you got this amazing boat for $5,000....I was like....it's gonna take them for a ride financially....but just having to replace the out drive????? Seriously? Who gets that lucky!!! But the honest to God reason that I've kept coming back is you guys. You're both hard working. You understand and appreciate the value of a dollar. You're responsible AND you are humble enough to know that you don't know everything. Not gonna lie.....kinda turned on by the fact that not only is Emily hot, but she knows how to turn a wrench! Major score Aaron! You definitely leveled up bro! I did as well which is why I'm so proud of you bud! Add into that your editing style.....the addition of the drone shots.....the music......you guys are on a road to more stardom than I'm sure you're aware of! Keep it up! Don't change a thing!

[@kens492]

A battery isolator is a must-have if you don't have one. This will always keep your starting battery charged and used specifically for starting. Have 1-2 accessories batteries for the fun stuff. Also, change as many lights to LED as you can. This will increase battery life.
