How I SURVIVED a Year as a Yacht Mechanic

[@WillFixThat]

It's been a busy year thanks so much for coming along with us! We envision 2025 only to be better because we plan to get out and do more fishing and fun adventures .... stay tuned! Inquiring Minds want to know .... how many of you seen all these episodes?

[@byronlarson227]

I'm a detailer from west Michigan. I just discovered your channel. It's been pretty fun getting to know you guys. Thanks for sharing.

[@WillFixThat]

@@byronlarson227you enjoying our boat chaos! Thanks for watching Byron!

[@GUNZ-h3z]

Great content. Always looking forward to the episodes. Stay blessed.

[@WillFixThat]

Thank you! You too!

[@larryprice6195]

I learned that lesson years ago. Check yourself every single time. By the way, love your channel

[@WillFixThat]

Yes! Thank you! Larry appreciate you watching. Matt learned that lesson a long time ago too.

[@jamesrahn8339]

All the best to you, family and crew! May 2025 be even more awesome! All of you deserve it

[@WillFixThat]

Can’t wait to see what we get into this year …. Besides maybe some fishing!

[@jamesrahn8339]

That's what it's all about! The fun part of boating!

[@laurenleclaire9512]

been there done that. I did that on a 440 AC circuit. Thank GOD I had a full protective suit on. I can tell you that you can still feel something through the gloves

[@WillFixThat]

Glad you’re still with us 😮 I’m sure your heart started racing when you realized.

[@YomamaPVT]

Glad I found this channel. Can’t wait for the new episodes

[@WillFixThat]

Watch some old ones we have plenty! 🤣

[@chrisrancat2808]

Boat repair is a difficult profession whether it be fiberglass, mechanical, and/or customer relations. I think a person really must love boats to make it a profession in the first place. Even that love can disappear when the negatives outweigh the positives. But after all your problem solving during this video to have you affirm the positive in it and especially the personal relationships that give you a good mental outlook at the end of the vid was a nice thing to see and a nice way to start my day.

[@WillFixThat]

It is definitely a love-hate relationship sometimes! Like anything we have those days!

[@craneville5446]

Thank you for being you and thank you to all

[@WillFixThat]

Thanks for sharing 🙏

[@michaelthompson7570]

Enjoy your channel keep em coming….

Thanks for watching Michael.

[@DaDuddaMan64]

Great recap guys. About the electric screwdriver guy. I also came across your channel while being laid up. I contracted an infection in my bones after a PRP shot for pain in my knee. I missed the whole season up here in Jersey. My prognosis is not promising I my have to sell my Grady. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. Thanx for the content

[@WillFixThat]

Wishing you the faster recovery and positive outcomes 🙏 Geesh infection from a shot. I just had stitches get infected. I haven’t been to work with Matt for over 2 weeks. Can’t wait to go back tomorrow.

Appreciate you watching!

[@para1324]

Congratulations. Volvo people chose the right team for their company. You will have further success because of your honesty and work ethic. Full respect sent along with my very best wishes. Winning again in 2025. 👍👏🙏

[@WillFixThat]

Hoping for more fun in 2025! 🤣

[@jonnooney7102]

Totally OK to fire customers in the Marine Industry. There are way too many nice people that will pay their bills without hassle to waste time on the other kind !

[@WillFixThat]

You’re exactly right!

[@JLGadgetguy26]

A Happy and prosperous new year Matt & Karriann and all the Will Fix That crew 🎉. Thanks for all the great videos you've been gracious enough to share with us , looking forward to what's to come. A neighbour of mine years ago worked at the Sunseeker factory here in Poole UK and got asked by a dealer to work for him in Marathon FL. and here i am watching you guys fixing boats in the Florida Keys, small world heh 🙂 John from south coast of the UK🇬🇧

[@WillFixThat]

Happy new year! Thanks for watching John! We are only about an hour away from Marathon.

[@JLGadgetguy26]

Thanks Matt. I just realised, you're former USAF, I'm former RAF Tech. Amazing 🙂

[@WillFixThat]

@JLGadgetguy26 Actually we are both former USNavy!

[@kochykoo]

Congrats on the New Volvo deal. Just remember to trust your gut when coming to dealing with your customers. Your business should trust and stand by the reputation and workmanship you believe in. Don't put yourself in a bad situation. The world we live in these days are full of manipulation and personal gain. They have no problem bending you over a rawdoggin you into the ground to get what they want. Put your wife first and just build life as you both see fits and help the people around you you feel you can without loosing yourself in the process... 🍻🍻🍻

[@harryrose9144]

Matt and Karriann, wishing you both and your team a very Happy New Year and a successful 2025. I enjoy your video's and I have learned alot. Best to you both!

[@WillFixThat]

Thank you so much! Happy New Year to you too!

[@clilesny]

Happy New Year....Good News for the day....every day adds a little more sunshine in our lives.

[@WillFixThat]

Happy New Year to you too! I agree, there is always something good to look forward to. 👍

[@stevekomorous3864]

Thanks Matt for a heart felt video. Being a business owner in the moving & storage business I certainly appreciate and sympathize with your ups and down. Customers are our lifeblood, but there are some that are cruel, mean spirited, non-payment, and light you up on social media when in many times not deserved. However, the few customers that take the time to write, post a wonderful review or send a gift of any kind is like a shot of B12 in humanity like you say. Thank you for a wonderful year of videos and congratulations in growing and expanding your business.

[@WillFixThat]

We try to stay positive and appreciate the good times. Yes ups and downs in business we do our best!

[@chrisjohnston4400]

12 or 24 volts don’t sound like much. It’s weird not getting a shock from something that will weld it self together and glow red hot in seconds. It’s like your entire wiring harness becomes a toaster element. Sometimes just to keep it interesting it will weld the shutoff switch also. This is where the hi amp fuse you installed (right?) will save you.

[@bobgreenhalgh7324]

Happy New Year, Matt & Kerry. Best wishes

[@WillFixThat]

Same to you! Bob thanks for watching.

Year end review… how’d we do?

[@TomiAnneTimm]

WOW! Have you noticed? The words PLANET and BAPTISTS do not appear in the scriptures, while the word PLANETS and BAPTIST do appear? Are God's words so pure and holy then that the placement of a single letter, like an S, makes the difference between darkness and light? For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 from Authorized (King James) Version.
