Nice video. I purchased a Dixie bluefin few years ago . Bad engine and a leaves were probably a foot deep . The wife thought I was crazy for bringing it home . I completely redone it and it gets more conversation than any boat on lake . I believe it’s the only walk around in our area . We love it including the wife lol.

Nice job on that boat. Not keen on those paint flicks in the cabin. I would have painted it over. The hatch is an emergency exit and also to let heat out. A tip if you do another floor like that, put full boards at either ends and work to the centre, that is where your filler strip goes. If you reduce a few strips by a quarter inch, your filler will be the corresponding amount wider, so not as noticeable. Lift your ladder and secure with a strap when underway. Good luck with the next project.

Aquasports are a known quality hull("hull truth"). Good choice with that I agree. Was looking at a well duded out Grady White a while back for an entry level off shore ride. Not a fan of the over the top new machines on the market currently although the new motors are very nice these days for repower.

Really nice build, I love seeing old boats brought back to life. I have three that I am working on but they are more major refits. The hardest part here, is finding a good used motor for a decent price. I think my next project I am going to go with one more like this without all the major repairs and quicker turnaround. Great video and love the lights.

Tom Herbert you won’t like me on my 1977 searay my wood was going bad cracking, chunks missing ,as well I sand and oiled but it was still not good so I filled in cracked and missing bits and primed and applied a black satin industrial coating . If in the future I get some time in the winter I may purchase some new wood and hand rub and oil it . But over all my faded but mechanical well taken care of Omc 351 powered searay turned out as good a results as this video and it came with a HD tandem axel trailer with surge brakes and all electronics some tools full subrella top that was badly stained and moss on it ( stitched a few seams and washed top and refinished it )1800 .oo Canadian and only used in fresh water and marina Serviced for 12 years including a full rebuild of complete out drive on the Omc out drive

What did you use to fill in the gashes?
@hidel308
@hidel308 4 жыл бұрын
The gashes are typically filled in with a two-part epoxy you can get it at most marine supply stores. Or you could just use JB Weld. And bottom painting under the bunks is done by jacking the boat up a few inches. You do this by lowering the tongue all the way down. Putting cement or wood blocks under the elevated rear corners of the boat covered by cushions. I use old towels. Then bring the trailer tongue back up to max, and prop up the front sort of like the back. I use a v shaped plywood rest on top of blocks to stabilize the bow. Level the trailer out and you should have a few inches to work that paint in there. Hope it helps. Aquasports rock!

I've seen people in north Texas asking $4,500 for much less nice boats with only 40 - 50 hp motors. There is something about the area in which you guys live that has a lively market for good used boats, fairly cheap, and easy to renovate if you have a good work ethic, elbow grease and a basic knowledge of outboard diagnosis and repair. God on you, guy, this is one of my fave channels.

That Aquasport has all the qualities to make a beautiful boat , but what I really liked was that beast V6 outboard motor , that Yamaha is a powerful class act , one of the best made outboard motors She should really move with that 200 hp Aquasport was a direct competitor of the Boston Whaler boats Of course Boston Whaler made some great boats but they were more expensive I like the walk around cuddy cabin layout You get almost a big center console and a cuddy which is really nice Thanks for a great video

The concern I would have with boats of this age is what is the condition of all the foam flotation? If the flotation is all water logged then the boat will weigh a lot more than it should (if nothing else increasing fuel consumption), if the foam is deteriorated then it won't be of much help if the boat takes on a lot a water for some reason when on the water.
@sidescrollin
@sidescrollin 3 жыл бұрын
Wouldn't you know? If the water can get into the foam, it can move around. It would tend to run to the back of the boat and you'd have a soft floor and transom as a tell-tale.

Great video! Great job! You made one mistake, a trailered boat should not be bottom painted! It increases weight and drag to slow speed and increase fuel use. It stays on a trailer no need for bottom paint. If you want to paint to pretty it up use Awl grip or Imron. They will keep the speed and not use fuel.

Stain the drawers in the cabin, replace or maybe just remove the crappy vinyl trim panel on the 2 inner sides and remove the decals and paint on new ones. Finally maybe add a bimini if i could find one cheap. My only other comment is like some of the others. How can you buy that motor for $500? And how can you buy that boat and trailer for $1000? I guess things are different down in Florida. A decent running 200 hp Yamaha would fetch at least $5000 up here. The trailer would cost about $1500 and the boat maybe could be had for 2k with the blown motor.

This boat looks sick as but the only little problem is that if the motor starts leaking oil, fuel or grease that’ll all drain into the live well and if there is bait or fish in there they will just die. But good work looks good👍

Well, this particular boat for instance is for sale for $6500.... I mean i think that's a decent price for a boat in the condition this one is in. knowing what he has into it, it kinda hurts to pay that, but I am in the (side) business of flipping things from time to time as well, so overall I think his asking price is fair and I'm sure he would allow some room for negotiations.... As for where to sell it, you have a few options. ive used craigslist, letgo, facebook marketplace, all of these are viable options....

I have fished Lake Huron tributaries since the early 70s in Ontario ,I was trying to fish the day and evening the Edmund Fitzgerald sunk at Southampton and later that day at Goderich Ontario the wind made it near impossible i Remember driving home on highway 21 the wind of Lake Huron was so bad it could hardly keep my car on the road .

I know how it’s is man. I have a 1966 13 ft whaler and I did a new gel coat job on her about a 1 1/2 years ago and I live in Saint Petersburg Florida like you do. And literally the last few hours my cover around my carport came down and I got soooo many bugs in the gel coat. I was pissed. Lol. I think I’m gonna spray Alexseal this time. They say it has a 30 year warrantee and my buddy used it in his whaler after I told him about it and he’s in love with it. He literally had no cosmetic blemishes in the finish what so ever.

You say you have to "stain" the wood. Hopefully you are actually applying a new finish too. A good oil and then a spar varnish or spar urethane to protect it from the sun.
