Evening ride in our 1951 Chris Craft Special Runabout with my kids on father's day 2018 at Lake Texoma. First real ride on the boat after 27 years of storage. Recent refinish in 2018. Still looks good!

AMAZING video! Thank you for the in-depth knowledge!
this video should be called...'how to become ill breathing fiberglass/antifouling dust'!
Great how to guide to destroy a classic boat!

Thanks for the information & taking the time to make videos!
Great video
I have two of these on my 1958 Century Resorter. This should help me make her easier to start and get her running better. Thank YOU!
Very Helpful for becoming literate in a Dual Zenith Updraft carb setup on a 1958 Century Resorter. Hopefully helped me recalibrate some rough start issues. Thank you!
love it… so funny :)
the worse thing you can do fiberglass on top of wods especially on one side. fiberglass is hard won't move when dry, wood is soft that will move when wet or damp, so cracking will accure. then rot will set in ...
All I would say about this is get Dan Daneberg’s book “The Complete Wooden Runabout Restoration Guide” and read it first.
Thank you for this comprehensive explanation , well explained sir!
understood everything John except when you showed how to adjust the idle air/ fuel ratio how do you know when it’s correct? Not sure of what changes as you turn it 25% at a time. thanks Paul
Hi John, just about to rebuild my 1948 Shepherd zenith carburetor and will do it with more confidence now that I’ve watched your expertly detailed info. Thanks for taking the time it’s very appreciated.
5200 bottoms on wooden speed boats are far superior to epoxy and fiberglass cloth. If you want to do an epoxy fiberglass bottom on a wooden boat, all the old planking should be stripped off and replaced with marine plywood then glassed over. The marine plywood is stable and will not move under the fiberglass coating. That bottom will last.
Most pros will not recommend fiberglass on a wooden bottom. Contact Snakemountin boatworks in Vermont.

How can I reach you with a question on my Continental inline 6 Flathead with an Updraft carb. It will not start even after a Carb rebuild. Thank you
Hola yo estoy buscando un departamento de 2 cuartos y un baño porfavor necesito info gracias.
In the name of neptune NEVER fiberglass a classic wooden boat! Wood flexes as it goes through the water. Fiberglass DOES NOT. Overtime the fiberglass delamination and moisture moves in, then the rotting process begins, from the inside out. In essence, you have "sealed the boats fate." That is until some poor sap down the line spends the time and effort to remove the fiberglass. The hull needed to be properly inspected. CC have double plank bottom and board n batten sides, they should not leak a drop. Shaft and rudder glands excepted. It may have cost a bit to have it done properly, but in the end it would have been the cheapest. I've stripper 3 wooden boats that were encased in fiberglass, it's an absolute nightmare. I've run out of names for the people who do it.
The fiberglass bottom destroys the value of the classic Wooden Boat. These people probably bought themselves three or four years of happy boating that would be about the max.
Epoxy and glass together ARE flexible. And epoxy will stick well into wood. You are right delamination can occur later but that can be handled. Boat will last now longer than without the epoxy-and-glass. In wood occurs also "delamination" like micro-cracks etc. so now the bottom is better secured from the cracks and possible hits to rocks or floating objects. Let the old guys enjoy their better boat now.
@@rikunevalainen8154 I'm not trolling for a fight. I'm really not. Wood and fiberglass do flex, BUT not when bonded together. They have different "flex rates" if you will. The only time fiberglass and wood works is using the West System where you saturate the wood with fiberglass, essentially transforming it to fiberglass, Talk to anyone who restores wooden boats (please note, I did say restore, not preserve or make is usable) They will all go into a rant as soon as you mention fiberglass and wood in the same sentence.
Hey John, nice job on this video. Just got an old 13hp tecumseh w/ updraft carb . Thanks for putting in the time to make such a comprehensive and easy to digest video. You are real smart and have damn good skills at passing on your knowledge. One of the best videos on RUclips you are an officer and a gentleman or a mechanic and a professor perhaps 😬. I appreciate your focus on the theory surrounding each component. Its fine and good to know what each part does, but much better to also know why. It’s guys with brains like yours that invented miracles like the carburetor! Keep teaching a man to fish amigo. 73 from Boston
Great video, just starting my 3rd restoration on a u-22 I've had for 35 years. I think I'm gonna do what you did, don't some folks plywood strip the bottom first for best bonding of the glass ? Thanks
Great video!!
I’m about to try this thanks !
