- It was a long summer, but our 1992 Sea Ray 380 SS is finally dry docked for the year and is ready for a make over of the century... literally! This yacht hasn't had a paint job or interior update since the 1990's and it is long over due. Join us as we begin a multi part series to restore this boat back to its former glory. Engine maintenance, upholstery redo, fiberglass sanding, upholstery overhaul, electronics updates... you name it!

In the future, 3M makes an eraser wheel for the drill or die grinder depending on your preference of tool. Basically its a big rubber disk that us body or detail guys use to remove decals/ adhesive. RPM's are key with the wheel. Another thing which works great to attack the glue is any petroleum based product like wd-40, PB Blaster, etc. Goo Gone, lacquer thinner also works. Lets also not forget about the heat gun/ plastic razor blade method for pulling the stickers of neatly. Its best to try for the least abrasive method and work your way up. That way you don't need to do any extra work filling in the low spots with high build primer, epoxy, etc. When you aren't doing a respray and have to be careful of the finish, that grinder isn't even an option. This is why I suggested the other ways for next time when you get another project with good paint that you plan on saving, but with decals or scuff marks you need to clean off. Figured I'd offer some tips after MANY years of bodyshop experience. Nice looking boat for sure. Thanks for sharing. 👍🙂
Wife and I tore out the interior of our 1987 Formula 242 LS (first boat!). I was expecting more advanced building techniques but it is all just screwed and glued! Love watching the work being done as it inspires us to do more ourselves. Thanks.
Never ceases to amaze me. We have to remember, the fiberglass boating industry hasn’t changed much since the 70s
im gonna be honest, not cutting out the wet wood and using BONDO to just cover it up is craaaaaaazy. I've done my fair share of fiberglass work, rebuilt my 1979 Sea Ox took it all the way down to just a hull and started new. Helped a friend on his 87 privateer and did my 2820 parkers fuel tanks so id say i have some knowledge with the work.
It came back around to that. I did a bunch of work on the bow pulpit this winter to fix all the wet wood.
Great video!
Bondo and boats don't mix. Epoxy is your go to for anything boat related. Nice job btw.
I always wanted a boat and if you keep making videos like this one. I might can afford one and know how to fix it. Thanks. New follower.
Lookin good! Excited to see it with a fresh coat of paint
Just wanted to give you a heads up, you can get 3m rubber discs that remove the decals really quick without taking any gelcoat off. 3m also makes a pretty adhesive remover chemical that works pretty good too.
We tried but the decals we so old the 3m discs weren’t working. Maybe we should’ve tried the chemical route. Oh well it worked anyway.
Great paint job!
Hard to belief that boat was over a $100K when new and they are still using wood instead of composites. The 1980s to 1990s Sea Rays had some gorgeous lines.
boats over 800k still use wood over coosa. not many manufacturers have swapped to coosa yet
First View!! Have fun on your massive project!!
Thanks Jeff!
How did you learn so much about boats?
Prep work == not fun, great work men!
Not one bit
Chicos, hermoso yate para restaurar. Pero sabían que es de mala suerte cambiarle el nombre a un barco?
Sea-Rays have thick Gel-Coat. Rather than wrapping or painting you can buff it right out using an aggressive cutting paste. Watching you cut into the gel coat with an angle grinder hurts my feelings ;-)
We tried I promise. Couldn’t get anything to come through. There wasn’t any Gelcoat left
Magnet would be nice in your bucket for this job😅
You could have used gel coat cleaner and saved lots of time and money.
dammn man its not that bad...id say its pretty clean in fact
Info and contact on the guy and business who made cockpit cover, I need mine replaced
He was a close friend. Unfortunately I can’t give that out. We were truly grateful to have his help. Good luck!
Trop de paroles sans vraiment voir votre travail
One more thing.. Bondo is for cars Not boats. Use thickened epoxy or polyester resin on boats. There are many reasons for that. The upside is that it is a lot cheaper, more durable, can be thickened or thinned based on the application, you can control the curing time, and when you glass over it you will have a chemical bond. None of this is true for bondo.
We used fiberglass epoxy resin. Is that not OK to use?
Why not show you cutting the hole . That what we want to see, just explain what you are doing.

What happened to the black trailer you built??
Dexter motor home axles happened. We parted ways with it and bought a nice gooseneck aluminum trailer. Too many wheel hub blow outs.
Yep, I actually anwsered my own question in ep 4 i think. I watched all 7 last night and really enjoy watching you guy bring these oldy but goldys back to life!!
