SHOWSTOPPING Aluminum Boat Build in 10 Minutes

[@brucemckinnley5272]

The satisfaction of having done it yourself is priceless, and whoever hasn't been through a build like this, will never get it. I designed and built my own fiberglass Bass boat from an existing 16ft ski boat hull in 2014. Needs a new coat of paint, but still going strong, with a 150 HO Evinrude to help it along. But yes....never again...maybe 🤔

[@rustycompassadventures]

Craftsmanship is top notch. Really enjoyed watching this build.

[@jimmyhetten9]

Unreal! One of the nicest transformations on KZbin! You are in a caliber of your own.

[@jeffmckaig4763]

this was totally impressive, your attention to detail, and the fact you set it up to be electric is impressive. Loved the decking work, the switch panel(s), and most of all the plumbing and livewell finish. Well done !

[@j.pocket]

Dude... Wow! You were so humble when you told me about your channel. Your attention to detail in both the boat and the production quality, and the "get-to-the-point-edness" to show the integral aspects of the buildout are each and all superlative compared to most. Well, done! You're gonna hit 100k subs pretty quickly. My grandfather said It's a good idea to prepare for ridiculously high levels of wealth and success BEFORE you actually achieve them. You can rest assured that is what we're gonna see you achieve. Then, we're gonna talk about getting me one of these awesome freaking jon boats for the family watershed!

[@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats]

What's up bro! So great to meet you the other day and attain some knowledge! Thanks for checking it out my channel and I truly appreciate the kind words my man. I'll definitely be seeing you again in the near future!!! Such a great comment, it means a lot to me! Definitely down to discuss a project for you in the future.

[@j.pocket]

@@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats Bro, Perfect Timing! I spent the afternoon on the river with my other business partner, and I introduced him to your channel here. I'll be back at the store Thursday and Friday, if you get a second either day around 1:30 or 2:00 - stop by or give me a call. I've got an opportunity that has potential to REALLY help not just you, but even greater it could be a game changer for both your home life and this awesome community of subscribers you're building here. It's the exact step in the right direction you said you needed, and regardless of what evolves we're all going to get a big boost of energy just from the conversation. It's cool that it doesn't really have anything to do with me but I still get to feel excited like an 8th grader who's seen where Santa stashed the new dirtbike until Christmas morning, lol! See you soon. Cheers, brother!

[@michaelbradford573]

Fantastic job. I would be so proud of myself if I built this. What craftsmanship!

[@conradboykoii1170]

Oh man, the waterlogged injection foam! I went through the same thing when I restored a 1966 Lone Star Runabout. My son and I built our own bulkheads for bellow deck, and I think all told we sank close to 3000 rivets into it for all things done. Lotsa work, but the end result is so satisfying.

[@coty7228]

All I can say is wow, I’ve tried to redo a 14ft Jon boat myself. Didn’t turn out anywhere near this nice. The time and skill In the finished product is amazing, Great job my friend.

[@davidstoquertjr2429]

Exceptional craftsmanship! Your vision and attention to detail is admirable. I can only dream of having a jon boat that is anything like that.. Nice work man!

[@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats]

That means a lot to me, thank you for the kind words. Seriously. 🙌

[@MrRanger518]

Wow really good job! I have restored several boats over the years and the amount of time and money you end up spending is unbelievably.

[@jasonbourgeois8363]

Been watching you since the early days. Fine craftsmanship !!

[@strinity511]

Seeing the frustration is great, we've all been there and can relate lol. Nothing worth doing yourself is ever easy.

[@kevindavis7790]

Some people call Big Bass a Tank but your LiveWell... That's a freaken Tank!

Haha, thanks man! I guess "the tank" will hold some tanks!!

[@toddbennett6097]

Amazing job. Makes me want to work on my boat at 3 am.

[@flyflung]

That boat looks awesome. Really well done. I’d need a seat though. You’ve given me some ideas. Thanks for the video.

[@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats]

He added some seats after pick up. It has two seat bases I installed

[@chugaaa]

Technically top notch, really very high quality, details are outstanding! Kudos

[@jace62808]

Bro I'm amazed at this!!! You killed it brother that looks insane. I love it

[@dafishmantn]

Excellent work! Ive got some skills and experience too and what you’ve done is very close to off the charts. The details on the wiring and access to future trouble spots is well thought out. I’m guessing this was set up for electric only waters. The hull was the right size to be comfortable and stable, keeping things off the decks and out of the way. I hope you do something else in the future. Nice to watch someone do things right.

[@TheKcarbandit131]

Beautiful boat !!! Great job your attention to detail is awesome

I was wondering about putting a seat mount in the lid of a cabinet. How does it work and does it flex much, and could you explain more how you did it?

Great video, what drill bit did you use to drill out the rivets. Thanks

So sick bro. What a great edit . I’m curious, did those r30 insulation boards absorb water laying on the floor like that for all those years ?

Dude this is some killer work! Ive been watching videos and really want to try and tackle a build. I'm just waiting until I build my shop.

Hello Anthony . I love your work and it inspired me to restore an old 1989 Pro 17 which I should have never started . I have a question after removing the factory foam why install new Styrofoam why not leave it out ? I really do enjoy your videos you are the master . thanks for your help and you and yours be safe

What was the total wet weight of the whole boat once completed?

For your painting process, what sandpaper grit, what was in that spray bottle you sprayed on the boat and what kind of red paint was that? Thank you and awesome video!

[@Brainmalfuction]

there was no fucking around during that build nice work

[@mikesmith1710]

great build but should have primed bare metal surfaces before decking installation

[@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats]

Thanks. I don't see why.

[@MartinLarsson-f1y]

Wow

[@TiredOfApathy]

Such a cool build. I can't afford a boat but one day maybe I will. How much overall was the cost of this build with you doing all the labor yourself?

[@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats]

Man, loaded question because I built it for a customer and had labor cost. He bought some of the stuff, alrrady owned some parts, really hard to tell. I mean, the trolling motor alone is 3k. You could probably buy all the materials for 4-6k not including graphs or batteries or motors. But add in labor, candy paint, all the expensive electronics, this is a 25K boat all day.

[@jones_edition]

I wish I had half your talent! I put a bimini top on my boat, does that count?

[@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats]

absolutely!!👊

[@vadimshadrin6728]

Do I understand correctly that the removed foam was supposed to keep the boat afloat in case of capsizing? Won't it drown now if it capsizes?

[@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats]

Would have drowned if it were left in as it was water soaked holding hundreds of pounds of weight. The owner specified he did not want any foam back in. This is an electric only reservoir boat, incredibly unlikely it will ever flip over. If it takes in water, it has a bilge pump.

[@HighRewardOutdoors]

That would be sweet with a 250 mercury

[@drkronkron3061]

Nice job Anthony as always, I do think it’s time you step up your game and start using aluminum welding over most of the rivets. I get you have to use some rivets in some spots but that takes up too much time when you can pre fabricate and weld then install. Time is money and doing double work cost you money. Take a look at Tricked Tins Page and you will see how fast he gets his work done. He also uses minor rivet work on his builds only when necessary. I am not by any means trying to be harsh here just simply stating welding is much more stronger and cleaner looking.

[@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats]

I get it. Perhaps your unaware but this footage is almost 2 years old. I've welded my past 3 boat builds. You can look at my last build on here, the Alumacraft Bandit, all welded. I've been welding a year now, you can see allthe real time frames and builds on my instagram, @adubjones..I'm simply re editing old footage for a 10 minute videoseries im doing. Appreciate the insight.
