Enough with the B.s marine grade plywood deal, call it what it is and stop trying to ripe people off, it's just treated wood DUH, you call yourself a supervisor ??? get a real job.
quick tip from a fellow boat mangler... er builder. if you cant find small odd bits of marine ply you can use plastic cutting boards from walmart. they come in a variety of thicknesses and are absolutely waterproof. just be sure to give them a couple of layers of glass.
@@gowerski In a recent video they were talking about something on the boat engine engaging and he said ‘I used to be engaged’ or ‘I was engaged once’. Something like that.
My son and I were passing through Portland on hwy 5 on the 4th of July and I swear I saw this boat parked in the marina. Kinda cool because I liked this series.
5 years ago you got that . Wow time flys when your having fun . This means I’ve must of been watching for at least 7 years . God bless from Newcastle Australia
For a smooth finish when painting with a roller go back over with a brush immediately after rolling. Apply light pressure with just the tip of the bristles. This breaks the surface tension of the paint and let's it lay down.
B is for Bravo. Absolutely beautiful. And resilience man. It's everything. Just keep building. Also, paint em. Add some black into that front galley and you're home.
I look forward to the next episode "30 Year Old Italian Yacht stuck in a tree" the rollercoaster this series has been, while unfortunate, has been a treat to watch
Chris you should suggest to Holley to make a matt finish version of those screen... they're really reflective and might be hard to read in full sun.. (probably not as much of an issue in the dash of a car)
Can’t read all the comments but from a glazier’s perspective the amount of glue used in the middle was for safety so that god forbid should the mirror break it stays on the wood. Now your whole center can fall onto someone if it breaks.
@@vegas1746 the majority of liquid nails and the backing on mirrors nowadays it’s fine. We will use liquid nails to secure mirrors in frames. But for mirrored walls yes we use mastic.
There's a couple of things you can try to remove the discolouration on the wall panels. Firstly, any varnish or other coating will have to come off. Then, you could try an oxalic acid solution to remove the stains. You can buy ready-to-use products for use on wood. The other treatment that might work is a "mold and fungas" remover for wood. There may be a fungal element to that stain, although it's more likely to be organic matter suspended in the water that has been absorbed into the wood grain. Oxalic acid should shift that. Give it a go in an inconspicuous spot as a test. I've had good results with both treatments in the past. Hello from Scotland!
And I love them for it. Would we think to make an off-road Lamborghini, or take on and win a version of Eleanor, or this boat? It's been awesome watching them grow and learn.
The original video on this boat build is how I came across your channel and I have been hooked since. I can’t wait to see the finished product on your pontoon boat. Keep doing great stuff!!!
When you announced your new custom pontoon boat, I was scared b is for boat was toast. Glad you restored/resurrected it! This is the spirit of your channel
Great job Chris and gang. It's a lovely boat and I enjoy all the content covering all the trials and tribulations associated with it - it was well worth restoring after it sank. Looking forward to more clips in the future doing what it does best.
I lived in Beaverton back in 1996 and watched the fireworks 🎆 on the water with background music from KOIN.🎉 Thanks for the memory. Oh I'd make the Saloon walls a shade of grey to match the shutters.😅😊
"Is this boat safe?" "Oh absolutely, I am quite sure it won't sink again!" "Again?" All jokes aside, I am impressed you actually managed to get her back in the water. And by the looks of it you're well on track to have her in better condition than ever, possibly just a couple months down the road. It wasn't very "B is for Build" when it started, but it certainly is now!
Learned so much that I didn’t know you could do!!!😮 glass cutting, carpet change with just outlining the old to new and the black material you stapled.. pretty kool… glad it all worked out for you..
Great job. What a fantastic crew you have and an amazing wife too. Enjoy your content and always showing the reality of these projects. Always appreciate your can-do attitude.
Hi Chris the reason the round patches were on the mirror is because the mirror and the adhesive had a reaction. It happens if the wrong adhesive is used it eats the mirror from the back. I’d use a mirror glue of low module silicone to glue it if you want it to last. Good job the boat stuff is super interesting there is a lot of cool aspects to deal with with goii out d solutions. Well done 👍
My old boat was out on the mooring and I noticed the back end sitting kinda low, so I rowed out and realized it was taking on water pretty quick. I got the pump going and pumped it out and floated it but the engines were unfortunately submerged. Well, they worked a couple of days later, for a bout a week, then that boat was the most trouble I've ever seen. It essentially needed a full re-wire of the engine and body harnessses, computers, starters, alternators, etc. Good luck lol
That’s what happened to all of the DDay vehicles that passed through 0-3.5 ft of surf. They pretty much all died within two weeks unless a lot of work was done. And all the vehicles had to be new to land safely.
Chris, maybe a video on proven ways to prevent catastrophic failures on boats in the freezing winters. I’d be in for watching. Could help other boat owners avoid this situation. Awesome to see the boat back in action. Great job.
You need to get some good foam flooring for the outside on the boat. It looks so good and clean! I think seadeck is a good company of flooring with good options! And the boat already looks amazing!
Just suggesting… Paint/wrap the inside white, place a handful of fake plants around and hang some coastal/sailor-esk art and pictures. A magazine here and there (maybe one with your boat in it if you can find one) Then replace all kitchen appliances with stainless steel (to match the chrome window trimming) or black to tie in the black and white
I'm a supervisor in a plywood mill about 3 hours south of you, and we make 1/4" Custom Marine plywood, so if you need any, let me know.
I hope your ply doesn’t flex as much as you, Mr Supervisor! 😎
So cool, people helping people

I know it's none of our business but.....yay Chelsea!! Had us worried there. All the best!
I knew it was a troll all along lol.
Agreed!

Good to see chelsea is still in the picture! :) I think quite a few of us were weirdly worried about that lol
Nah you just have friends you don’t know at all
man installed a mirror bedhead

damn dawg... why he gotta say the quiet part out loud... i dont wanna know age!
Ive been watching him since.. wait how young was I??
God Bless from Sydney! Been watching since the start of the Lotus rebuild
Literally it's so crazy to see how far he has come. Truly inspiring
Why did the boat sink?
Black brushed aluminum wrap would look cool. With some indirect lighting.
What about brushed steel wrap lol
34:18 Chelsea getting lit with that pen 🌲
Instead of watching videos in slow mo, go BUILD something
Better be careful cuz I know operating a boat while doing that ain't legal!!
@@tomislavlulic9330 bet it 10x more fun tho 😂
Getting lit ALL DAY FTMFW. Yup. 👍💪😎🔥👌🌳✅
Thats not Chelsea, Chelsea has red/pinkish hair!
For a smooth finish when painting with a roller go back over with a brush immediately after rolling. Apply light pressure with just the tip of the bristles. This breaks the surface tension of the paint and let's it lay down.
It's called "Mirror Mastic". It looks like liquid nails but it won't remove the coating on the back.

So happy you got it back on the water and looking good. Portland native here and I love to see a local team doing great things.
Chris you should suggest to Holley to make a matt finish version of those screen... they're really reflective and might be hard to read in full sun.. (probably not as much of an issue in the dash of a car)
@marklr5716 always an issue photo Matt glass finish would be better. Less glare.
A matte option would be perfect.
Though they make an anti-glare cover/film and some matte black vinyl around the edge could be the DIY solution.
Likely the glass helps protect against the elements

Indeed.
That makes a lot of sense
Liquid nails will eventually eat thru the mirror backing. They make a mirror glue called mirror mastic just for this.
@@vegas1746 the majority of liquid nails and the backing on mirrors nowadays it’s fine. We will use liquid nails to secure mirrors in frames. But for mirrored walls yes we use mastic.
@@vegas1746 also there is a Gunther’s mirror bond that looks identical to liquid nails that could be what was previously used.

Yeah Creality K1 MAX, bigboys!
@@Specialedes doorstops!
@@DevinRostron tables lol much like the new sovol also
I think he blurred them because there were shipping tables with the address on them.

Sometimes you gotta just take a look around and say “maybe I’m not a boat guy.”
I really miss this boat, more videos please 😂😂

I’m relieved to see this boat operating again.
This is like watching someone try to make a tutorial while trying to learn the same skill on the fly.
I feel like that's the whole point of the channel.
Best way to learn something new: Teach that that something to others.
And I love them for it. Would we think to make an off-road Lamborghini, or take on and win a version of Eleanor, or this boat? It's been awesome watching them grow and learn.
Your vibe is infectious, love watching your content!
The original video on this boat build is how I came across your channel and I have been hooked since. I can’t wait to see the finished product on your pontoon boat. Keep doing great stuff!!!
The lack of respirators while sanding and working with the glass is EXTREMELY dangerous. Doesn't take much to ruin your life with that stuff!!
When you announced your new custom pontoon boat, I was scared b is for boat was toast. Glad you restored/resurrected it! This is the spirit of your channel
I admire your recilence motivation and the fact that give you so much joy to see others having a great time because of you.
You are not wrong. You and your team overcame a LOT to put that boat back on the water. Huge congrats to you all!
the happy ending we all needed and you deserved! never stop b is for building
Great job Chris and gang. It's a lovely boat and I enjoy all the content covering all the trials and tribulations associated with it - it was well worth restoring after it sank. Looking forward to more clips in the future doing what it does best.
Thank you. Thrilled for you to get that great boat going
Great to see so much detail around these small ish jobs, thanks. All the comments I had have been covered by other posters .
I am alway impressed how y'all will just tackle a mountain of work and creativity make it your own and finish it.
For the 1/4" Marine Grade plywood - Mr. Plywood on SE Stark St. carries it. Might be good to know for you pontoon build.

Good work to get it back operational again Chris. And also great to see Chelsea again, you had some of us slightly worried there.
What an amazing transformation and accomplishment. She is B is for Beautiful. Always staying positive. Good job all around
Great video Chris. Nice to see the culmination of all the hard work of you, Kyle and Oscar.
Learned so much that I didn’t know you could do!!!😮 glass cutting, carpet change with just outlining the old to new and the black material you stapled.. pretty kool… glad it all worked out for you..
Your smooth sailing from here on out! On every project you do, I wish you the best and much love!
definitely have made it your own..I do enjoy you explaining of how things work and the logic of the builds.. My fav u tube channel.
Awesome build. Loved it all. Y'all are so resourceful. Looking forward to completing the houseboat!
I'm soooo glad you got to restore the boat! Something going right is a huge win! Can't wait to see what is next!
Been watching this since day 1. Happy for you and the team! Looking forward to seeing what’s next.
So glad you stuck with it. Often it’s not a destination, but the journey that allows you to enjoy the results.
Congratulations on reviving and improving this beautiful old boat ! Well done 👍
One of the best RUclipsrs i love watching. Thanks guys👍
BRILLIANT well done chris!!! amazing job from when it sunk!!!
So awesome. Great build!!
Really enjoyed following the journey with the boat. She looks awesome
If anyone was going to be able to resurrect a sunken yacht, it would be you and your crew. Great job on it!
wonderful build series! Really enjoyed it!
Great job. What a fantastic crew you have and an amazing wife too. Enjoy your content and always showing the reality of these projects. Always appreciate your can-do attitude.
So proud of your hard work and dedication. Makes it fun to watch. You have an amazing team with you too.
Really like this boat. I would paint the walls. Those frames on the cabinet look great!
Great to see you motoring on the waterways. Take some time and enjoy the hard work with your team, friends, family.
The lettering from the previous vintage dashboard would’ve been a lovely addition above the Holley screens.. I hope you still have it
This is why I love watching ya b is for build better love ya may more blessings go your way
You got this bro dont ever doubt yourself
Congrats man. Good to see the awesome results
Well done on seeing a project to completion regardless of the setbacks and hurdle. I thoroughly enjoyed this series!
Thanks for the video!!
Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

Loved this B is for Boat series!!

So happy to see you guys got the boat back in ship shape.
That's what makes boat ownership great. Those moments out with friends and family.
So much fun to watch.
LOVE That Blanket! Looking good buddy!
