BOAT RESTORATION BY BEN
США
Добавлен 24 фев 2020
Welcome to Boat Restoration by Ben! Formerly known as Makin Motor Moves... This is a channel based around all things boat and yacht restoration related. I was formerly a large tractor and diesel engine engineer at John Deere but now I work full time in the marine industry. When I'm not at work I an very busy with my family and working on boats. I am now on my 13th boat project! From $100 boats to 60 year old relics, I started small and worked my way up. Despite my best judgement, I buy boats that need A LOT of work and fix them up myself. I grew up boating at the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri, went to school to become an engineer, worked at John Deere for 5 years, and then decided to give it all up to pursue my dream to work in the recreational boat industry. Now having since moved to the Chesapeake Bay area, my mission is to share with the world my love and passion for mechanics and wrenching through my marine projects all while teaching you how to enjoy boats on a budget. Enjoy!
I Bought A RUSTY GMC 2500 HD DURAMAX As My New Work Truck | 2004 GMC 2500 HD SIERRA SLT LLY Duramax
I sold the 2013 RAM 2500 Cummins and bought a fixer upper.... well a little more than a fixer upper. This new to me truck is 20 years old, is filled with rust, almost gave me tetanus, AND HAS 240,000 MILES on it. Time to make it into the Boat Restoration By Ben work truck!

Should have put a fender between the boat and the pier
Looks great 🎉 and you're permitted to run out of fuel once'. Semper Paratus.
Can you give us some fuel burn numbers. I am in the market for our next boat and we need to know we can feed it.
Discovered your channel today! Excellent content! I’m glad y’all made it hold safe! You’ve got a new sub! Stay safe!!😊
That boat needs hundreds of hours of labor, And endless money. What a pit
any chance you can restore a 69 glass tron gt 160 trihull with a rotted transom and a merc tower of power?
Looking forward to follow the repairs 😁👍
Great job! 🎉
You’re better off buying a truck from Texas or Florida. Less rust but I’m excited to see how it turns out
Has this sold by now? I'm late to the game here.
The Bay Bridge Marina fuel dock is open year-round.
Good video guys, not a big fan of the running out of fuel. You should have topped the tanks in A.C. Those 25 year old gauges should not have been trusted. Lesson learned I guess. Good luck with the new boat.
Ok don’t sell it
If you aren’t tuning or doing any real performance mods, don’t worry about the lift pump. I would suggest replacing the fuel filter head before the seals inside start to deteriorate. 3” Downpipe will help it breathe a lot as well and aid in keeping it cooler. Also, do the Allison deep sump pan, I noticed quite a difference in transmission temp after doing it to my old truck.
With the money you have spent you couldn't have brought a new truck that has def that will give you problems.
I have a 2006 GMC 3500 crew cab 4wd long bed. I absolutely love this truck. It is pushing 655 horsepower. It pulls as well as my 2023 GMC dually.
Never sell it and I'll be your first mate lol
Ben, A tad of advice, if you have to do the same hole patch again. There is a easier way just take a lath of fibergalass batten or lexan highly polish on one side and screw it on the outside with 5200. shiny side in. Upon arrival take out your interior and grind back the usual tapers and the self tapper threads with care. Gelcoat the polished batten, apply 2 ;layers of finishing cloth. Remove the Batten, prepare the inside to accept the correct spec lam schedule vacuum in correct laminate and core schedule. On the outside countersink and fill screw holes and profile repair. If you do it right there is hardly any sanding on the outside of the hull. Also if your last laminate on the inside is sized to fit between frames etc, just the normal heavy interior gelcoat will mask the repair. As a retired boatbuilder I've used this process where possible for decades. Good luck.
I don't have a duramax, but am interested in one for one day. I went with my 01 silverado 2500hd 6.0 crew cab. I have no parking brake, anyway someone can help me with that.
Yeah you didn’t get scammed you just didn’t find it before handing money over this is kinda your fault the one who sold it may not have known either
Need a boat tour
Like having a drag boat in a pond , get out and fish it
Wow , nice looking boat still
Excellent buy! I recently picked up an 09 LLM here in VA with 400k on the dash that was a texas car-hauler just to lug my boats around. Somehow is still completely rust-free. Threw some two new front wheel bearings on her and she's rolling...Previous owner had it deleted, straight-piped and tuned...I could not be happier. These trucks are gems.
More views of cabin por favor
Do it at night! Thats what I do and I live in South Texas where 100degrees means it’s time to put up the Christmas Lights!
When did you run out? Did your friend being you fuel? Did you make it to your slip? How long did it take? Were the guages swapped? How much fuel did you use estimated? Great video. Cool boat. Looking forward to the restoration. Will you keep the boat or sell it? Do you do charters?
Targets 🎉
Still Pond 🎉
More videos on this boat pls
Boats and Hoes😂
In my opinion fiberglass and saltwater dont mix. Aluminum or titanium thats it.
What did you use to paint your fenders?
Yet you haven’t took it fishin once
Fix the side from tape and bolts. ❤ then I pay double your money plus repair❤
Looks awesome
When does the restoration start?
Been asking for weeks also❤
Legit just bought a 2004 GMC 2500 4 days ago myself and excited to get this same thing rolling 👍🏼 Please keep it up
That's one hell of a seaworthy ride ya got there, That Pursuit/Tiara line rocked out Fish the shit out of her every chance ya get 💪🏻
Until you sell it.
Glad that new boat smell ain't wore off yet lol. Have you gotten any lines wet with her yet? She wants a fish flopping around her deck
Yeah...Ok😂
if it's a one on a track, you should have all the factory documentation and the window sticker 😊
It’s 2 cold 2 go 4 a Boat-ride.?.?.?. Besides 4 that NOT being a thing. . . . Just put on the heat . . .
🍅Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the plains?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
When’s the next vid on the trip home on this pursuit?
Awesome project!!👍🏽..I currently have a 04 LLY Dually project. Pretty much doing the same repair your doing..😆…Aloha🤙🏽
Good clean truck I’d throw those other tires and rims back on but definitely not even slightly as bad as you make it seem
Yeah to get rid of that smoke smell you're probably going to have to get a new headliner as well.
