Absolutely insane, never thought it would be possible to do a "trail" repair on a boat with a massive hole in the bottom. Especially not flip the whole damn thing over and back without an issue. Love this channel

[@KyleHaines615]

Yeah, it was cool how ge fixed it, but now the boat is even more damaged than before. When he rolled it, he completely crushed the surf Bar, or wake Bar, or whatever the thing is that goes over the top of the boat that had the marine grade speakers on it, not to mention, it also ripped the bolts holding down right out of the hull, so to bold on a new wake bar, you'd have to put a patch, most likely metal plate, over the holes where the bolts were ripped out and drill and tap new holes for the bolts. Unless the boat was already totaled, I don't agree with his decision to roll it as apposed to just towing it on the air bags

Every company needs an Allen (sp) he is not doing it for the fame or money, he is just a genuine good worker and genuine friend.

Ain't that the truth brother! Having a friend like Heavy D who's ready to come and bail you out of pretty much any situation you can get yourself into is definitely better than any insurance company I've heard of!! Watch out folks here comes Heavy D Insurance Agency... Where we show up rain or shine at the drop of a hat and literally bail you out of any situation! Haha

You're a good friend to have for many reasons, but certainly when toys get stuck (or sink)! That looks like a nice boat that was sunk... hopefully the fix isn't too terribly expensive - it'll be worth it to have it back in use, that's for sure! The buddy you are talking to at 16:30 hasn't spent a lot of time with his shirt off yet this summer😎 lol. Now you know how most ladies feel when they wear tank tops or t-shirts for most of the summer, haha! I have always wanted to visit Lake Powell. The houseboating, the speed boating, skiing, fishing, floating, etc. It's a stunning place. I would pay a lot of money (that I don't have😂) to get there and spend a week or 10 days on a houseboat (with access to a ski boat). Sad it won't happen, but maybe I can get my daughter there some day. She'd have a blast! Summer fun is here! Heather🇨🇦
