The Cootacraft story | How time flies

[@webbey6479]

One of the most down to earth honest boat builders! Awesome!

[@richking4705]

I bought a boat of him from Queensland, once it was built he drove it all the way from Victoria and delivered it , was such a gentleman.

[@S.c.combo123]

Lol cos you gave him north of 100k

[@johnpascoejnr9744]

A true boat craftsman that understands what it takes to make things stand the test of time 🇦🇺

[@champion_ww]

Incredible video boys! Please keep these cootacraft videos coming, as long as Mark lets you.

[@fishernick2447]

I am surprised he continued with the interview and allowed it to be published, I loved it ... the sarcasm and closed questions made me laugh Good job Captain 👍

[@Soooneyy]

Mark is a legend, nice work gents, absolutely love watching your content.

[@sand_shifter]

You guys do the best boat vids .. .. makes you dreamy indeed . Great 👍 Work

[@russthemuss8142]

It's truly fabulous to see folks as passionate about their craft as Mark & Mel make a red hot go of it. Kudos to you and your team on your weapon factory and it's products. Cheers Captain for the vid.

[@mmmbass6068]

Fascinating insight not only to awesome boatbuilding but to a man who knows a f*ckload about how to make things work to the finest detail. Sensational.

[@tylerberryman24]

As a river rat living on the Ottawa river here in Canada, and a huge boat fanatic, I find true enjoyment watching these videos, knowing across the pound there lads just building beautiful boats,

[@tigesinaus]

The owner of the business is an absolute weapon.

[@robmcdonald1994]

Loved this, good to see a bloke doing what he loves, keep em coming

[@spirosbouas8424]

Congratulations for building an honest and high quality product. Superb specification, when are you coming to the US? Sign me up

[@HenryDarr]

These boats look and perform like they're from Florida ! It's good to see these spec boats being built here 🤙🏽

[@Crabman_87]

I'm hanging out for that Carolina flare love to appear here

[@user-qe3zm3tr6c]

Who the F..k would dislike that ... Well done Cootacraft and Captain best one yet

[@thomascarl4721]

Very nice I have shipped 21 Formula 233s over to AU in the past 18 years and I think it's excellent to see them rebuilt and beautiful

[@greatwhitesfishingadventur2273]

What an INCREDIBLE Insight !!!!! A MAN with SUCH Passion !!!! Fantastic Boats !!!

[@TPRElectrical]

Solid interview, the contrast of building a weapon boat via racing them to learn every aspect makes sense. Very funny bloke with no fear, well done.

[@samspinks1513]

Superb story and production. Well done @The Captain

[@gwizzler]

Great interview , really top shelf.

[@SoFloCamejo]

Norm at Whitewater is the best! I had no idea his molds ended up in Aus. Whitewater is a Miami classic

[@slow_diver]

Cheers for the update fellas. Would love to see them laying the hulls up step by step, but I guess that's a bit too sensitive.

[@mase1809]

They have some photos on their FB page of their layup process.

[@simdogg8412]

Once again unreal footage. Keep it up boys

[@abc123deadsoulja]

Lol the engine cowling at 17:00

[@AdrianoCisternino]

Great video as always, ..... nice arse touch in the closing scene too! 🤣

[@peterb3473]

Builds what he wants,doesn’t give a ffuck about anything or anyone except racing. Good to see what next.

[@byrontownsend5742]

Awesome video, great stuff. Thanks for the insight. All the best for the future.

[@ZoneTelevision]

Cootacraft owes its Deep V hull heritage to C. Raymond Hunt. Now it’s time for Cootcraft to show the world what a 100mph Deep V can do.

[@darwonboyful]

God that chief is an absolutely gorgeous boat

[@mase1809]

Have any Chief HTs been made yet? Can only find photos of the CC and Runabout.

[@gypana]

I'd love to see this guy get his hands on the original Harris Shark Cat 23 mould and put his build quality in the boats, they'd sell like hot cakes.

[@williamppnguyen8295]

V12 600hp on a cootercraft?

[@1PricelessShot]

Wouldve liked to hear his view on alumimium boats

[@checkthewater39]

It is suprising these guys run a boating mag and tabs and jack plates amaze them. They should visit the U.S.A.

[@joedennehy386]

I cant understand why the trailers dont have self centering rollers?

[@wayneruddell9659]

Well done to Mark , Mel and the team. A credit to you all .

[@1PricelessShot]

24:30 what fell out of the back ? And whata boat

[@yepyep340]

SHWING! I love Barbecuing boats and stuff

[@samstrotton4797]

Would love to see one of those bosses with twin 450 mercs

[@jimmmy7005]

F'ing awesome! Let's goooo captain.

[@phillspearsfish]

Wouldn't give my left, but id sacrifice a shit load to re trade and work for you Mark. Fucking love your work!

[@kylerothmans966]

Absolutely beutiful boats

[@cobra860]

This hull looks very much lika a splash off. From a typical Aronow hull.

[@cashotpb]

How much is that ram 3500 over in Aus? Similar trucks in the USA are optioning out at $75-100k. I’d imagine it’s nearing $150k in aus.

[@Bigsoot7393]

Haha no way pretty sure a 2500 is 160 here so I'd hate to think

[@cashotpb]

@@Bigsoot7393 wow

[@aryannaidu2281]

Yamaha on top ❤❤❤

[@Oldskool_73]

What’s happened to the coota craft big ram ?

[@kman6482]

Sweet. Now to win the lotto.

[@fint3810]

24:34 what flew off the boat on impact

[@kiwiboater]

BBQ Tongs

[@baileytrapp4539]

Only reason needed "Um Russia, bigger"

[@davidlove7825]

Get the miles for the original Mustang 2400. Another classic.

[@paulczernotowycz2305]

Legend!

[@shayneandrew7881]

Awesome

[@davidoceannz]

legend eyh!

[@toodlepip258]

Ya best yet captn.

[@lukey6164]

I went through the bushfires at sarsfield and fought to save my house and won. But was 14 hours of hell

[@zeiwow0]

dude really has a pump out side the boat mounted to the bracket.....13:50 do they not know how to do thru hull fitting in australia lmfao

[@eastgippslandabalone]

Ever cleaned out a bilge in an commercial abalone boat after a days work? When ya have you will understand why it on the outside.

[@chriswhite5820]

Send those shorty molds stateside....

[@dpd6401]

Nice

[@Sirolestulas]

❤❤.

[@Hewesy1984]

Did he say secret or cigarette 🤔

[@demisecphuket]

Waterlines just don’t look right on a couple of these. IMO

[@tassie302gt]

Edit

[@bigbopper9627]

There is always niche market for idiots. This guy has tapped into one and good luck to him.

[@krismaitland7885]

Always a niche for idiot comments, you've got that one covered....

[@seawater1322]

crap boats tbh what a rip off.
