if you're reading this, watch your back, gravy is watching you, he's always watching...

[@snowytoad]

I love watching your boat videos! So many things to learn about what NOT to do !! lol 😂😆😂

[@calebkirchner2890]

lmao

[@scottjewett376]

Oh my lord !!!

[@juanvega2239]

I’ve had 4 of these through the years and love em. Just a couple of suggestions. Where you mounted the Hook is where a splash guard normally is and the rear is going to get pounded by water I know it’s waterproof but we are talking tons. I would mount it sorta in the middle area closer to the drivers side. Lower the seats closer to the deck you said high could be unstable and you are 100% correct. The battery can be next to that storage box you want to put in the back. All my transducers have been attached to the left rear of the right pontoon plenty of silicone I’ve never had an issue. If you have plastic bolts and nuts holding deck to pontoon (I can’t tell) switch them to stainless. The plastic ones fail and will separate the pontoon from the deck in the water. Ask me how o know. Great work BTW look forward to seeing the whole build

[@highjinx6519]

Hopefully he listens, sound like very good suggestions.

[@lojofishing]

That boat needs to be in my pond soon…

[@ziggerknot88]

Sunk to the bottom?

[@AYOFishing]

That’s gotta happen asap

[@indianalotteryscratcher3286]

Just hope it floats in lojos pond lol

[@noyopacific]

So that SwampSquach the boat-eating abomination can make a meal of another micro-skiff? It’s a trap Badger. Don’t let him snooker you again!!!

[@ohmyretrolife1076]

Yikes

[@FishingWithYakPak]

Literally insane 🤯🔥

[@matchstikman3034]

Call the boat, "The Gravy Getter". So much of the decisions you made on these mods revolved around Davie

[@matchstikman3034]

Or "The Gravie Boat"

[@kateskrmetta2022]

Definitely the gravy boat

[@TheDaddychad83]

I was gonna say badgecat but fucking a gravy getter is solid af

[@Max-hs4vu]

Gravy train

[@brandonfelts6371]

Since its ayos boat though I say call it the" lil' Sally whacker"

[@Mjones8383]

Norm is the greatest friend a guy could have. Such a good dude

[@kevinshea408]

AYO back at it again with the common man’s “tutorial”. This is what makes your content so worth watching/waiting for. It’s genuine. More people will come!

[@STSGuitar16]

All’s I know is it definitely made me come

[@Sniperboy5551]

@STSGuitar16 You didn’t end your comment with “no homo…” 🤔

[@trs-80fanclub12]

Garmin is a fantastic company. In 2011 a tornado took out half my family, and through the debris we found the head unit from my sisters metal detector. Although it was torn apart, it still powered up. Garmin repaired the unit for free. Its a small company with a great line of products. Congrats on the fish finder

[@albertoknot8886]

My freaking guy let's go ayo..just got done watching the podcast and now this baby let's go on a roll

[@camillethetacoturd7210]

Same!

[@highjinx6519]

I wonder if him and Lojo alternate releasing their videos at the same time as the podcasts? Is it just me or does anyone else notice that? Nothing wrong with it, actually pretty smart, just something I noticed.

[@daveevans7438]

Also, you might want to lower that one seat on the gravy boat. With that higher post it may want to break loose at the bottom. Or install some backer plates underneath the hull where the seat bracket is. Just a thought!👍

[@fizzzishin9885]

Clicked as soon as I saw the notification!! Always a good day when badge posts a video!

[@jayjarrell2454]

Norms skill with power tools is top notch!

[@HollowTips92]

Something about the way you edit is special. I really can't place my thumb on what it is but it stands out from other channels videos. Keep it up man

[@crazykids2004]

That was hilarious poor Norm what a interesting camera guy amazing video as always 💓can't wait for the next one

[@battlefieldbassin]

The vibes are just immaculate whenever norm is around

[@joshwagner8468]

Ayo is back baby. I love the boat restoration videos. Keep them coming buddy

[@Gunbunsoutdoors]

I am loving the Norm and AYO collabs!!

[@jeepsterjoe]

Use plastic/nylon spacers to elevate your rod holder box, then you won’t need to move the wires and hoses. Fun build project! Keep it up

[@randellmoore224]

You two are hilarious 😂 😂

[@dustinclick9496]

Great video AYO. Great to see norm helping even though he looks so out of place with tools lol. That’s why we love him. So hyped to see the notification go off and see that you had a new video out. Thanks for making my day man.

[@socalsaltwateranglers]

I purchased some seats exactly like that but in Black and White. Then the Pedestals we're too tall and and to reorder some shorter ones. All in all they came out great. I'm having a blast watching all the updates. Can't wait for some more Iddy Biddy 🤙🏻

[@CatfishingwithCos]

Ayo...I absolutely adore ur videos...I love ur friendship with Davey gravy and how u always put him first...ur an exceptional person.

[@natedawg88]

First order of business! Make sure Davy the big gravy is fishin SAFELY.

[@taylorjoshd]

I'll say it again, AYO...We NEED an "AYO & Normy" channel!!! We, as devout followers of your individual channels, request a weekly hour-long co-op vid to follow your Abbott & Costello('ish) antics... LOL.... Enjoying every second, my friend. Keep up the great work, Dude.

[@ronbenjamin4351]

Bro now that’s a friend!!!! No words.. thanks for the videos

[@stephenw2391]

Hey I want to know how the pond is doing that you have been feeding all the starving bass. The one you put all the shiners and stuff in. Can you give us an update video on that?

[@myboyfriend95]

It’s been a long while since that

[@highjinx6519]

I think he talked about that on the podcast they just released. He actually got a visit from DNR about that for releasing crawfish in it that weren’t native. And I believe he said the owner didn’t want him to do anything else to it because he decided to shock it and start over himself.

[@highjinx6519]

Podcast where he explains what happened: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l3Knm42XbJiAh5o

[@kyledavis6695]

Bout time been waiting for every guy but thanks for making us a banger always 🔥

[@flagger1x]

Here ya go: Mount rod holders upright on the back of the seats. When the seat folds down, so do the poles.

[@J_D_B4379]

Mount the rod holder storage box on 2X4's so the cables can run underneath it Seal the wood so it doesn't rot

[@a.perkins89]

I loved everything in this video. The cameraman is awesome. You constantly thinking about Davey (not norm) is heartwarming 😂. "The Davey Dingy?" Or the "dingle berry" is almost water worthy 😆

[@ryanoneil3123]

Hey there AYO! Just wanted to share that im a personal friend of the man who invented the CraigCat. I even got a ride on the first one ever made up on the niagara river. They really are a fun ride and quite unlike any other boating experience!

[@mamawnamidreviews9978]

Love all the fun, to just sit on top of the houseboat! Watch out for that rope Norm. Also Norm, see a doctor about all those aches and pains!! Ground Norm from the power tools, lmao!! Just out of curiosity, wouldn't it have been better to paint the Itty Bitty Mini first. Sorry, I really like that name, lol. Thanks for another fun video, I look forward to more!

[@uncleswampy764]

Working with what you got!! Make it happen my man!! We believe in you!

[@Mavv.err.ickk506]

I just picked up a camper for $free.99 and I'm having about the same issue with it as you are with the Craig Cat. I'm just glad that I'm not alone in that kind of retrofitting. Thanks for the laughs, dude.

[@ZachWrightZ87]

Keep ‘em coming buddy, loving this kind of content!

[@treepounderbaitco.5153]

Love the boat content. Keep up the awesome work man. Your killing it.

[@madmax3169]

AYO if you learned only one thing it’s to NOT give power tools to children 😂😂😂 Norm saying his father was going to be SO disappointed was hilarious… great content and can’t wait to see you and Davey cruising for fat sallies 👍

[@brandonearly2963]

The videos with you and norm are great. Keep them coming

[@chrisday9502]

Haha thank you for posting this. I love the chaotic energy and that you aren’t hiding all the mistakes of the build through editing. Love the channel! Keep that sweet sweet content flowing

[@bobrbw1202]

Love the "Gravy Boat"! Davey is the best! You and norm killed it. Norm has many holes in his thing hat has a lot of holes. Great content keep it up brother. How far are you from Liveoak? I have some good friends down there.

[@nealmacdonald9896]

For the motor mount, add a galvanized steel 1/4 inch thick by 2 inch wide strap with 2 holes drilled for the galv. bolts to go through. It may add more strength to the setup. Round the corners a bit for safety sake if you want.

[@shawnthorp2238]

Always excited to see a new Ayo video pop up!

[@PNW_Life22]

Stoked to see what happens with the house boat!

[@Rockin_P]

One thing to think about with your rod storage behind your seat is clearance for your tiller handle when you have rods stored vertically

[@fxpthl]

Your buddy Dave is a fun sidekick for your postings, even though he has weird sleeping habits! I’m looking forward to seeing the next episode of this unique? Build.

[@dr.floridaman4805]

awesome, was just thinking of your craigcat as i was welding my kayak

[@NFNADVENTURE]

I'm high watching norm use tools. And it was great. Thank you for that. After doing work on my boat all day. That made me laugh and made today better

[@Tim-McDow]

Love when your channel comes up! Keep bringing the heat

[@rippinlips8680]

Nice video bro, Im digging all the boat repair videos.

[@kylemattix5561]

Man been forever since iv been on KZbin… was so pumped to catch up on ayo vids…… that didn’t take long🤣🤣🤣 cmon bro!!!

[@-send-it-garage-7897]

Yo love the content keep it up bud and can’t wait for more house boat vids it’s gonna be ballin when it’s done!

[@dr.floridaman4805]

ikr, frustrating dream projects are so relatable.

[@SteveK6470]

Name of the CraigCat could be "Teenie Weenie" to go with the Itty Bitty?? Like the upgrades! Maybe fill in all those holes from previous attachments with good quality silicone caulk or strong J-B Weld 8277 WaterWeld Epoxy Putty. Can't wait for more updates on both boats :)

[@1moparmadman]

Something tells me that the last thing AYO wants to be known for is his "Teenie Weenie" Lol

[@rogerdean2306]

I swear every video I watch is like an episode of Saturday night live .make sure you always make room for those flutter feet .and the fear in Norms eyes was legit lol .call it morbid curiosity but I have to see how this ends .one of two ways great or terrible 🤣 🤣 🤣

[@josiahkahkonen2307]

Can’t wait to see y’all fishing on this!!!

[@travisgrogan6253]

[@ReelAustinB]

More content please! This is awesome!

[@ramgabe1027]

Make a pedestal for the rod holders just tall enough for the cables to fit under the rod holders. Like putting it up on stilts.

[@josiahkahkonen2307]

Always click as soon as I see the notification!! Let’s go!!!

[@TheJaymon1962]

Still the best. Love this project.

[@jasonfrerichs6583]

Davy Gravy is the star of the show. The people want more Davy Gravy.

[@mhale45]

The relationship ayo and Davey have is amazing

[@WitchDRofKabul]

This is hilarious!! Y'all gon' be pros before yah know it. Especially with your idea for the rod holders. That would work beautifully.

[@damonlynn9285]

Well worth the wait but can’t wait to see that thang in action on the water!!!!

[@cal7693]

here we go, sailing on the gravy train.

[@johnnytopside6317]

my MAN IS BACK

[@Thewarhorse47]

Huge fan. Great videos because of your personality.

[@rcflyer7794]

The absolute best beginning to a video ever 🤣🤣

[@noyopacific]

It’s not a Craig*Cat, it’s a Badg-A-Maran ! It’s nice that you’re letting Norm get the exposure of appearing on your channel. Thanks for the video Andrew!!!

[@robbie_rebuilds]

Probably said but instead of 2x4s use plywood & glue/epoxy it together for better strength on that trolling motor mount. Love watching the honest man building! Cheers 🍻
