I'm making a flats boat from scratch. Restoration is a lot of work but it's looking good. The Pacific NW is a perfect area for a boat like that. It's going to be a lot of fun for you and your family when you're done. Just FYI...I think the Simrad GO9 offers an interface with Suzuki outboards so you can have fewer gauges and save a bit of money, but check before you buy. I think I paid 999.00 for the unit and transducer. It's not a Garmin but it costs less. Subbed.

[@ELCADAROSA]

Hi! Late to seeing this. Mads (Sail Life) had to do much the same with re-coring his 38’ Warrior sailboat, Athena. He’s been a great source of information for me. I purchased and installed a windlass on my 36’ Luhrs a few years ago. Look at Good Automatic Windlass as an option. You’re doing great work. Yes, you’re going to have discouraging times, but don’t let it get you down. Bob, of “Renovation Sportfish”, is also a great resource. He and I have traded a few emails over time. And, of course, there is Andy of “Boatworks Today”!

[@LindellAdventures]

Andy is a great tool and have helped me tremendously! Windlass is a great thing to have!

[@williamcummings6562]

I’ve built boats for years , and I’d like to give you a couple tips. Use 2x10 pressure treated , and set them on edge bevel the bottoms to fit the dead rise then glass in. Run a 4” pvc pipe from the transom on the side you will put engine controls to run cables and any wires fore and aft. Pour two part foam between stringers and sides of hull. Run bulkheads on both ends of gas tank and pour foam around it to keep in place. Make sure to make limber holes in bottom of bulkheads for water to flow aft to a bilge pump . Have fun !

[@bayou-buy-me]

Don’t think he’s interested in using any wood, considering the work he’s put in removing the rot.

[@Fibs4Tibs]

Excited for the work to come! For what it’s worth, with the age of that trailer, I’d look for a *newer* aluminum bunk trailer to restore. Lighter for towing, nicer, and bunk is far better to worn with than rollers in my opinion.

[@LindellAdventures]

Rollers are needed for me due to having to push the boat on and off. Aluminum is nicer but a lot more money and probably will get a new trailer eventually, but will be fixing the trailer up for now 👍

[@rolandtb3]

Great explanation for future potential build plans. Some are fixed like engine with controls and tanks sizing and location. Similar for cabin use, layout and cockpit areas with controls. Rebuild is time consuming and expensive. Lots to learn along the way. Keep moving forward with your plans. If you have some time, check out "Angry Mack" on KZbin. He is doing something similar. Gutted the interior. Removed the stringers. Sanded the interior. Just completed the transom fiberglassing. He used 3 pcs of fiberglassed marine ply vs coosa board.

[@LindellAdventures]

I have seen a couple of his videos! The controls for the 300 is fly by wire but the trolling motor is fixed cable 😢 one day they will get fly by wire for trolling motors!

[@belledetector]

Since you will be installing an offshore bracket anyway, why not go for 2 x 200hp Suzuki (or even smaller) instead of 1x 300hp. It´s much safer to have redundancy when you are far offshore, in case of an engine failure, and the extra but smaller engine setup, will not cost you much extra. I think the boat would also sail better with a dual engine setup..

[@LindellAdventures]

I need room for a trolling motor and would not have enough room for all of them. I won’t be going offshore that much and if I do, it will be in a group.

[@robertdonald4409]

[@Fluid36]

Gelcoat is used when the boats in a mold mate, it won't cure when exposed to air and even if it did would be really difficult to sand and create an acceptable finish. Maybe you mean Flowcoat? Even that would be difficult and not the best option. I would sand the gelcoat and paint with a 2 Pac polyurethane paint similar to Interlux Perfection. I have been through the same a result was great.

[@LindellAdventures]

The boat is gelcoat already, not paint, so it's doesn't need to be sanded except to get down to good layers. I have seen multiple instances and professional companies and people gelcoat boats that have existing gelcoat hulls. I will be using a wax to cap the gelcoat for the hardening stage.

[@Fluid36]

@@LindellAdventures Ok no worries, thanks for posting.

[@michaelbeasley2085]

@@LindellAdventures You are correct about adding the wax to the gel coat. It will harden just fine but that being said I would paint the boat with quality marine paint. You get to pick the color and it's quite durable. Below deck we use a two part epoxy to seal everything. Jotun is our go to.

[@stevenmullin2661]

Love your videos, what a ton of work. What are you doing with the engine you pulled out?

[@LindellAdventures]

It was sold just after removing it 👍

[@saltyhooker5785]

Awesome job man! Im with you on analog gauges. The two analogs I always have are the fuel and tach. Everything else I rely on the electronics. My advice on the trailer is redo it Like you're saying and get rid of the rollers. Bunks make life a lot easier if and when you ever launch solo. Stringers I have done with both 1.5" coosa and laminating two pieces of 3/4" coosa. I've never seen any structural difference with stringers and would recommend whichever option costs less. Keep up the good work 👍!

[@LindellAdventures]

Thanks! As far as the trailer, the rollers are pretty important since I launch in shallow areas and helps loading a lot better 👍 The stringers will be laminated like you suggested and should be extremely strong! Thanks for the input!

[@garyolsen5790]

Looks great, which bracket did you decide on?

[@LindellAdventures]

I decided on a PDR bracket, just like the one I showed with the motor on the SeaSport 👍

[@michaelbeasley2085]

Been a boat builder and restorer for about 40 years. I highly recommend that you don't replace any wood with wood. Cossa will not rot ever and only has the ability to absorb about 1or 2% moisture. It will be costly but far superior.

[@LindellAdventures]

Yup, no wood going in ever. Only wood on the boat will be the cabin which is the only thing I will not be replacing (only thing not rotten). Coosa everything and honeycomb for cabinets and some other items.

@@LindellAdventures After this years Tuna from Westport you may want 150 to 200 Gal. on the fuel! You are doing great work on a great PNW hull! Are you going self bailing deck? sorry if I missed something. Marysville checking in!

[@jackpatteeuw9244]

Don't set your heart on gel coating the hull. Do your research on gel coat vs paint. I would not reinstall a marine head. Too much plumbing. Check a out cassette or composting head. A 3" transom is quite substantial, but I would still want some knee braces connecting to the stringers. You need to move as much weight as possible as far forward to balance the bracket and engine hanging out the back. With no stringers or core, make sure that the trailer roller have not left dents in the hull. Worst case you may have to build a cradle with long bunks and let the hull settle back to it's natural shape.

[@LindellAdventures]

I am looking at durability and with docks and going to beach on rocks, gelcoat is what decided on in the end. Yeah, the head is converted for compost or a storage tray with liners. No pumping most likely but don’t know where I could dump compost waste. Do you know where by chance? I moved the tank forward 5 inches and have the fresh water 25 gallon up front and will be adding the fridge and storage up front. The offshore bracket will have some buoyancy to help. Everything matters as far as weight! Thanks for the tips!

[@jackpatteeuw9244]

@@LindellAdventures the trick with composting head is first, keep the urine separate. It can easily be dumped into a toilet. Don't let the solid compost waste fill up too much. Double plastic bag it and dispose with other solid trash. Biggest issue is having enough compost material and storing it dry.

[@jackpatteeuw9244]

For short trips a Cadette toilet is adequate.

[@michaelbeasley2085]

A marine toilet is about as simple as it gets. Salt water in and everything else goes overboard. Even if you require a holding tank it's still a simple system. Add a maceration pump and pump your own tank over when you are 3 miles offshore. I personally would not be wanting to handle waste. By the way I have been building and restoring boats professionally for about 40 years now.
