BARGAIN BOAT Restoration - Bargains are EXPENSIVE - Volvo Penta Engine and Wiring Harness Video
Просмотров 3,4 тыс.Год назад
update: I sold the hydrostream.... because I got a new project.... This is a wholly unedited video of my engine removal. 5.7 Volvo Penta GXi-E. I am primarily using this for reference so I don't care that it is super rough. This Ebbtide open bowrider is a boat I bought super cheap and decided to clean up and put through a restoration and use.
Bass Boat Engine Swap Ep2: Gantry Build and Engine Mount

I built a gantry(overhead hoist) out of wood in this video. Don't do this! I made it in order to lift an engine onto a boat that I couldn't carry myself. Swapping the 65 Mercury for the 115 happens at the end. I will finish the wiring and start the engine in the next video!

When you go out on a cheap boat... Blown engine in the Bass Boat
Просмотров 161Год назад
Yes, I was using pre-mixed fuel. The cylinder was dead when I bought the boat. I had run the outboard for at least five hours in this condition, and I thought it was too slow. So, I decided to do some diagnosing... It's a Mercury 65 horse power outboard engine from 1973. Nature shots from Mark Twain lake South fork

Mercruiser 470 - Engine Removal and Flywheel Bolts Replaced
Просмотров 2,1 тыс.2 года назад
1981 Mercruiser 485 with an SEI 106 in a Wellcraft 196 Bow Rider Mercruiser 470 and 485 are nearly identical except for camshafts. The sterndrive failed last year and I bought a remanufactured Alpha One Gen 1 sterndrive from SEI to replace the original. We thought our problems were done until......
Thanks for posting your journey! The port at 27:00 is the diagnostic port. There is a code scanner available that does Morse code type trouble codes from Code Mate, part #94008, it basically jumpers two terminals and puts a test light between two others for $120. You can scour the internet for ways to use a piece of wire and a $5 test light to do the same thing, but you need the list of trouble codes for it to be valid.
Stop cursing Dude!
Ah fuck come on
Says my yt is 24 in.
Jesse nice project. How u measure height on transom
I have the same boat , same color it took two and a half years to restore and $5,000 later . I loved working on it every single second ! Then another five years saving for the new motor .
Freeze busted…new block..maybe heads
love it, or leaf it
make sure you drain the block, exhaust, water feed from leg, after each weekend. And 100% as part of winterizing - you had ice damage
The engine builder didn't know what side the valve covers bolt on and I think you need more silicone on the intake 😅
Lol
Mmm whip cream and caramel icing…
Great Job !! I liked how Happy you you where when it started. Now that you are done how about cutting the Lawn !! LOL!!!
That can happen when exhaust manifolds crack....put new manifold in.. great presentation
Got free boat with 165 merc.water in oil. I cut the hill and used interior for my boat. But then seen only 3 bolt in riser. Riser are hard to keep sealed. With .4 bolts lol. . I got to try to fix it now. 😮would that get water in oil.?? 😮
It is possible, but unlikely that the riser would cause water in the oil. I would guess that you have another issue
Hi Jesse, that hull is great, I'd consider revising the final drive and changing it for a jet drive....
Do yourself a favor next time, instead of buying a boat that wants to be a crownline lpx, just buy a crownline lpx, you'll thank me later
Lmao! I know right! I think im keeping this boat forever or until the next project materializes.................
Good job man! That was some work. What's the numbers on your prop? I gotta change mines out and mines isn't the original.
My prop is 14 3/4 x 21
I think you should keep the same motor
Wish i could have........
Excellent video thanks for posting
Yeah, cracked blocks seem to be a thing most boaters in freezing climates will go through once in their lives. hopefully this is my last one........
0:21 GOOD LORD
great video, thank you. can you share how much $ this required all in?
Yeah, i should probably make a video about all of the costing I did for different options, but here is the final cost to get it to WOT(wide open throttle): Purchase boat w/trailer: $3500 Spare block: $200 Spare block rebuild and machine work: $4050 Rebuild gasket set: $400 New cables: $150 Fuel system flush/repair (done by myself, but not shown in video): $550 Random shit(battery, random gaskets, oil change, hear oilwater pumps, belt, spark plugs): $430 If you are thinking about this yourself, keep in mind, this dont include the $500-$1000 in tools you must have. And we had to modify the engine hoist to get it to lift the engine high enough to clear the transom. Total best estimate just to get to the water, this boat has me about $9300 if my math is correct...
Months later update comment: I sold this boat to a guy who is planning on rebuilding it with his kid. I just didn't have the time for that project, because I got another bargain boat... I am editing the video for that complete disaster right now. But anyway, yeah, if you subscribed to see me restore this boat, sorry, for my purposes, it still isn't a boat that I want to pour hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars into. all of my content will be boating stuff, but if you unsubscribe due to this, I completely understand.
My flywheel is making a knocking noise, I think my bolts are loose on the flywheel.
Could be. Have pulled you starter and checked the flywheel for any abnormal movement?
I'm interested in taking it off your hands
Looks like great stuff in can
My last one came out great
It's work. Plain and simple. But none of it is hard to do. Just time consuming. Check out my classic boat restoration playlist on my channel. May inspire you because my project was pretty much in the same shape as yours. Don't give up!
Yeah, it'll start soon. Have to get two other boats ready to sell and then it can get put in the garage
I’m in the middle of a 18’ Charger rebuild. It’s worth saving these old boats that’s for sure! The good news is rotten wood comes out easier that the good stuff. Clean it out to the bare haul and start from there. One bite at a time! Good luck.
Hate to admit it, but we totaled a 24' Maxum on our maiden voyage last year (2021). Total newbies and we paid the price by hitting a rock dike. We have another boat (1963 Cruisers Inc 202, (vintage wood boat) and are out there 3-5 days/week during the summer. Enjoyed your video thanks! I was the 15th like and you might be picking up that trash sooner than you think ;) Steve & Laura Young Longshot Marina
Very painful to fuck up that bad. Sorry to hear it was totaled
Stop the music lol. Like to see the boat finish
Its gonna be awhile till we get back to work on the hydrostream. Ill make an update video, but of my three boats, none of them are water ready. so im gonna get the other two boats going and save up to buy the epoxy resin we need for the hydrostream. Right now, im hoping to have a complete plan and start work in January.
I'm rebuilding a 1970's checkmate, core, transom, stringers, floor, bulkheads, there is no easy way to do any of the work. I am two year into it now and now at the point of painting the boat, will be 3+ years in the end. it is very time intensive and you will not get your money back out of it. will cost thousands of dollars to do correctly. only fix it if you really love the boat, and want to keep it forever. no that foam is not structural, it is safety foam for coast guard regulation.
yeah, right now, I have zero fiberglass skills. its pretty daunting, but I also hate to not finish something I have started. None of my workspaces are heated at the moment (i.e. my back yard and the shop) so I really cant even start doing any fiberglass work. I want to learn how to do this work though... if you could pick out some bottlenecks in terms of time on your project, what were the most time consuming parts? or parts that held you up?
Need core too not just floor
Do the cores run alondside the floor? Or is that the center board that was underneath the floor? I made another video of inspecting the boat further if you dont mind taking a look
@@jessiejamesii1651 it's under the floor . There is balsa wood fiberglassed to the inside of the outer hull. You will literally have to take it down to basically the shell of the boat. There is a hydrostream forum that has alot of builds. I had to do it with mine. I replaced floor, core and transom and added gussets from floor to transom.
All the balsa rots whether the boat has been dry all it's life of not.
@@mo2095 holy bejeezus.... you have to do it even if the fiberglass looks and feels fine?
I thought wingdams was a font in windows
Step by step videos, start here. m.ruclips.net/video/cnGtBFu9Xfk/видео.html
I watched this entire series before I started, but I haven't popped the cap off yet. I am basically going to work on to other boats that needs much less work to become operational.
Pop off the top and replace all the wood. I'm in the middle of doing the same thing to a glasstron gt150 right now. It's a lot of work.
If I have a solar plexus can I generate electricity? How many panels do I need to generate 1.21 gigawatts?
The solar plexus is a myth, even ancient aliens says its ludicrous.
Tell me how they work!
buy me dinner
This video would be more interesting if you got drunker!
but then i ramble about how vietnam isnt even a real place and the video ends up being 2 hours long
I only have one question. Do you eat with that filthy mouth?
