He ended up with a serious amount of Boston Whaler for the money. Stunning boat.... especially the upholstery

[@allsearpw3829]

Love the 2 strokes , true WHAT YOU SAID AND THE SPARES FOR THESE ARE STILL AVAILABLE . An amazing rebuild and yes it is worth every penny of 35 k .

[@duncanjames914]

Beautiful rebuild/mod. I did the same on a 1974 Browning Mediterranean cuddy. What started out as a refresh (i.e Paint, new floor, and tanks) had me throwing the receipts out in case my wife found them. We do it because we love these boats. :-D

Lovely boat, and I like the upholstery! 👍

[@patrickmolloy6994]

great to see that fun boats like this are within the financial reach of mortals . happy Days & Happy New Year

[@AmraphelofShinar]

Nothing like some old two stroke outboards. The sound, the smell, and as the man said, the power delivery...

[@matthewmartin1970]

Worth every penny. Beautiful restomod.

[@mhofma12]

Cool project, would like to see more of these.

[@hugoandreae3785]

We’ll do our best to bring you more of them

[@ianscott3180]

Great job on the boat and a very interesting video. I love to see older boats getting a second life, well done.

[@JMc.D]

I used to chat with Ben at the boat shows. Very genuine guy.

[@cliffordwalpole]

Great refit, I feel this is also relevant to my boating. As I am unlikely to be buying millions of pounds worth of the latest Sunseeker Etc.

[@chrish2996]

Hi Hugo and Ben. A fantastic boat. Well worth the effort, passionate about the restoration and upgrades. A classic remastered. Great video thanks 😊

[@hugoandreae3785]

No problem, I know Ben is watching these comments too and is thrilled at the reception his boat is getting

[@danielmainlandphotography]

Lovely job and I love the upholstery!

[@illsuspect]

Great boat, thanks for sharing the journey to get her sea worthy again.

[@nicbennett6554]

Nice job. Beautiful boat.

[@stephenb7333]

love boston whalers and this is no exception but that horror of a fuel bill at the end would leave a bad taste in my mouth.lol..nostalgia ey.happy boating to the owner.

[@suspicionofdeceit]

Is it more than any other similar boat?

[@stephenb7333]

@@suspicionofdeceit Those heavy blocks on that engine due to its vintage and those carburetors plus if it's running on propellers of the same vintage would be a nightmare consumption.its like a good old classic boat or a car.you do it for the nostalgia and the love of it.😉it is in excellent condition by the way.

[@gerhardvanwaltsleben8944]

Lekker man lekker

[@quilezbonelli]

Sunk?. Boston Whaler don't "sunk".

It's hard to beat boston whaler.
