Wish other so called restorers of boats would have the Integrity and Attention to Detail you guys have. You are a representation of the old days and old way, when a hand shake was your word ✝️🛐!!!!! Outstanding restoration and hopefully I can come and purchase a great boat from you. Godbless you and your families, I'll continue to watch your vids, thank you so much☺️

Super clean wiring, i despise looking under a helm and seeing a rats nest. Thats the first thing i do when i get a new boat to work on. Rip it all out and start from scratch. Nothing moer frustrating than trying to chase down wires that are nested up. Awesome work, very informative 👏

15:02 - I'll tell you this!! Being an electronic technician of many different modalities, you guys have made an impressive display of wire/cable/comm [RETRO] routing, securing and organization/stabilization. Anyone who does this for a living (like me) knows this is pretty nice work. IMHO - "Some" experience (1990-now)

I enjoyed watching this rebuild. I have a 1999 venture almost exactly like this one except 12 kw furuno radar and simrad MFDs. Mine is powered with Yamaha 300s. I had the same issue with my compass when I changed out the speakers under the ladder to the upper station. Thanks

Marine Seat and Cushion Recovering Idea-this is a very difficult specialist to find. Here’s how you do it in your area: call the vinyl provider in your town and ask them who their biggest recovering buyers are and who they recommend. They will give you more than one name. You can also call a small airport FBO and ask them who recovers their aviation seats. Reverse your way into this specialty!

On the introduction I saw you working with the Bimini top. I can't find a video where you built that and installed it. Maybe that was one that was lost? Could you go to the boat and do a video now of it just pointing out things and talking about how you attached it and how one should be attached and what parts to get and where to get this from so yeah I can put a Bimini top on my 19 foot I/O. Thank you! It would be very helpful to me!
