I can't wait to see Andrew make it on RUclips. He's humble and a unique character and I imagine the only thing that will change for him is access to new toys.
Your ads are the only ones I actually watch so that hopefully the sponsors will pay you. I'm enjoying watching your channel grow and watching you thrive! You're so much fun to watch, thank you for sharing and making content! Bangin' video, Badge!
He doesn’t need expensive equipment to get the job done, or the high in newest thing. He makes what he has work, and he gets the job done. That’s why I love your RUclips channel the most of all the fishing you tubers and that’s why I’m gonna be here when you hit a million. 🤙🔥
I think I was more excited to watch you get this thing going and on the water than I was when I got my first boat. Congratulations dude and huge shoutout to Lojo for being the man and friend he is, that's really awesome.
I have never been more happy for someone i dont even know before. Bro is gonna go far in life and i hope he will always keep that little boat around as a reminder of where he came from.
Jon B I just bought a house in main a house in Texas and a boat for each . Ayo - I got a 20 year old boat with a 25 year old motor . I’m stoked . Guess which guy I like to watch fish more !
Don’t follow any RUclips channels but you and lojo are working on a greatness you guys don’t even see yet !! Thank you for your personality!!! I just started bass fishing but been a fishing fool since I was old enough to hold a rod !!! Am 43 now and love how you guys keep doing what makes you happy!!
Bro your excitement when the motor was running had me so happy for you. Can’t wait to see future videos on this channel but can’t wait for more videos with this boat. Keep killing it Badge
The joy in this video is absolutely contagious! You have mentioned in previous videos how you have been up and down with career moves and progress and figuring out what you want to do with life. The work you did on this boat and being able to share the success of the project was a pleasure! I am so genuinely happy for you, sir! Please be encouraged! and continue rocking out the awesome content!
Brother, please never stop making videos. The way you get excited about fishing makes me want to watch your channel over many others,even the pros. Keep grinding and stay humble man. God bless!
I’m 3:48 in and I can’t tell you how elated I am to see you get the motor running. I’m endlessly impressed by auto mechanics and anyone who understands the intricacies of motors. Mad respect AYO, obviously a man who wears many big hats. Can’t wait for more.
Andrew, with all your hard work that you do, I don't think there's another RUclipsr that deserves this more than you. I loved the video and love watching your channel grow!! Thanks for sharing.
I am happy to see your face of joy. Keep on with restoring the boat. I know that the materials are expensive but doing it write gives you a wonderful feeling. I hope you consider doing a better job. Keep on.
I ADORE YOUR AWESOME BOAT! It brings me back to days gone by. Trips to the old Florida that's almost lost now. You used to see boats like that ...real people fishing from them and heading back with their stringers of fish full for the fry-up that evening. Nothing fancy, just the average guy living life large enough to be very happy-go-lucky 😊 I'm so happy for you!
That was some good wholesome content to bring a smile to a fisho currently locked down on the prison island of Australia, can't wait to see the first Sally in it
That’s a great video, the pure joy in Badgers eyes, the beauty of the boat not sinking on the water, and Mrs. Badger showing off the sponsored product, perfecto 🤌👌
I watch so many boat builds and restorations by pros, that are edited and produced and perfect... its super refreshing to watch a realistic human approach. Haha. Good job.
Man feels good to see you happy man! Lojo is an awesome friend and I said it before but will say it again..when you find a friend like that make sure you keep them around.
So happy that you got your boat all fixed up and that it didn't sink! I need a boat myself yet. Good job getting that motor running! Can't wait for the next video!
Had to watch you again, this brought back memories. I bought a boat that had stick steering with a 35 Yamaha on it. I bought from an older man that garage kept ,he hadn't had it out in 3 years. I did all the testing on the motor like you did. I took out on Lanier and I did the same as you did. I was so excited that I had left all my fishing gear back in the car...long story short, I didn't fish, just ran that puppy around for a couple of hours..memories bro!!
There’s a musky bait called the Tallywacker by Gooch. You gotta get yourself one, they are like a whopper plopper and they catch big bass. Keep it old school brother, love that old E-tec!
I'm so so happy for you Badge! I'm so glad that she floats and didn't take on water. I wish you all the best and look forward to seeing your future videos!
My dad had an old A-Venrude engine that he bought used when he was in high school in the 1960's. It worked just fine still around 2000 when he sold his old rowboat. The only thing he really did to it was to replace the pull starter cord maybe twice and I did it once. I think it was less than 5 HP. The trailer actually went out before the boat ever did which it didn't. We took and old hay wagon axle and welded a trailer up. The we put some rails over the trailer to mount a couple canoes over the boat. They had clips so we could take the rails off if we wanted to. So when we would fill up with gas we'd always have a crowd of farmers crowded around the boat checking it out. It had full size hay wagon tires not wimpy boat trailer tires. Wonder if you put in a paddle?
My one and only boat sank at the doc at the lake I kept it at. I used to love fishing and just going to the lake. But ever since my boat sank I just do not have the heart for it. BUT BUT now after watching the PURE joy in your face from being on the lake. I am gonna try again!!
This gave me joy knowing how much badge really wanted this to work out and for his main man lojo to help him out man two great people here that I’d love to hangout with
It was awesome to see your reaction when the motor turned over.. i would of been so much easier for you to get a gallon of extior paint with a little roller.. would of saved some brain cells and that top deck would be sick if it was some thick ply wood and carpet it would be so 🔥 🔥.. best of luck with your new vessel!!
I love the videos man my 3 year old found you and Lojo a few months back just clicking videos he is now obsessed with watching your guys videos we've practically binged all the videos on yours and Lojos channels. You guys have sparked an interest in fishing for him and he loves going fishing with me now! Keep up the great videos they make our day!
Your genuine happiness while you were finally ripping across the water was awesome and contagious. It's nice to see good things happening for good people.
Oh yah. I think we’re almost as excited as you are. Thanks dad and bride for sharing the chore…. Congrats Andrew! And yah… watch out for the wet paint lol.
I have to say that is what fishing is all about!! Your excitement and enthusiasm about your first boat has brought back memories that put a huge smile on my face! Thank you for that! You have earned a new follower.
One of the best personalities on RUclips I’ve ever seen definitely the type of guy that I would talk to for a few hours And think I found a new best friend
Man, I've fished casually my whole life and in the last two years I've started taking more time to get out there. Started by finding Norm/Lojo and then noticed you in the videos, checked out the craigcat videos and then found this as it's something I want to do myself. You've got an awesome personality and most importantly, a good attitude. Great to see you celebrating and dancing, can't wait to see you progress over time.
I remember my first ride in my own boat, so I feel really really connected to this videos. The sound of the engine, the color of the boat, the unstable boat and the casting deck. Man it was almost me literally riding that boat and feeling the same excitement, bro, I swear it.
Right on. Get two oars and a set of oar locks. Trust me, you must be able to row that boat, not paddle but row and practice! Good job. Two oars will neatly stow out of the way.
It’s like Christmas morning my guy! Hey big shout out to uncle LoJo for making all of this possible- can’t wait for the many vids to come fellas🙏🏼🇺🇸❤️👊🏼💥👌🏼🤙🏼✌🏻👍🏼🔥
Huge props to Lojo for hooking you up. And be Awesome to rebuild or get newer version of your motor. Basically renovate the whole boat. But after redoing the whole thing it will be 1 good for rest of its life you own it 2 be worth more when if you sell it. And if there av3rd it will be Amazing to see you wracking fat Sally's maybe new PB in your future?
Cannot wait for a Long camping trip video with this and the house boat... go out fishing, bring back stuff to the boat... I’m not sure the time periods of the two match, but they sure look like they’ll go well together... house boat has me excited to see how she comes out...
Can’t wait to take the first ride homie!!!
❤️❤️
LOJO is a beast!
I'm sure it wouldn't be your first ride!

I ADORE YOUR AWESOME BOAT! It brings me back to days gone by. Trips to the old Florida that's almost lost now. You used to see boats like that ...real people fishing from them and heading back with their stringers of fish full for the fry-up that evening. Nothing fancy, just the average guy living life large enough to be very happy-go-lucky 😊 I'm so happy for you!

Love the look of joy on your face when the boat was moving on the lake! Too funny seeing your truck still on the ramp as you rode away. :-)
Aye AYO, Keep up the Great Work Man! It’s insane that amount of growth you showed over the year I’ve watched this channel.
I watch so many boat builds and restorations by pros, that are edited and produced and perfect... its super refreshing to watch a realistic human approach. Haha. Good job.
That’s an awesome accomplishment AYO. Can’t wait to see more videos with that ole Evinrude rippin.
I love how Excited you are. And I cant wait for all the videos coming.
Feels amazing to watch, awesome road to that point Andrew. Keep on pushing brother, so much inspiring!!! The name fits her alot too!
Man feels good to see you happy man! Lojo is an awesome friend and I said it before but will say it again..when you find a friend like that make sure you keep them around.
At least it turned over and isn’t locked up bro. That was basically best case scenario lol happy for you my man!! You deserved that.
So happy that you got your boat all fixed up and that it didn't sink! I need a boat myself yet. Good job getting that motor running! Can't wait for the next video!
I’m smiling so hard watching this! Nice work and LoJo a real 1 💯
Had to watch you again, this brought back memories. I bought a boat that had stick steering with a 35 Yamaha on it. I bought from an older man that garage kept ,he hadn't had it out in 3 years.

That face of pride and sense of accomplishment is amazing. Great job Badge!
Congrats!!! You deserve that puppy and I can’t wait to see the adventures you and Mr Gravy are going to have.
I'm so so happy for you Badge! I'm so glad that she floats and didn't take on water. I wish you all the best and look forward to seeing your future videos!
Congrats Badge! You deserve all that happiness that was on your face-and much more!
I’m not gonna lie… the video made me genuinely smile it’s so great to see how you’ve grown since the first time I saw you on Lojos channel!

Hahaha that’s awesome and totally forgot a paddle 😂
My one and only boat sank at the doc at the lake I kept it at. I used to love fishing and just going to the lake. But ever since my boat sank I just do not have the heart for it. BUT BUT now after watching the PURE joy in your face from being on the lake. I am gonna try again!!
It looks great!!! AYO this was great. Can't wait to see you catching some big ones.
The pure excitement and joy you show is contagious.
I've been WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO, I love boat restoration videos... This is going to be great. I know it will
This gave me joy knowing how much badge really wanted this to work out and for his main man lojo to help him out man two great people here that I’d love to hangout with
It was awesome to see your reaction when the motor turned over.. i would of been so much easier for you to get a gallon of extior paint with a little roller.. would of saved some brain cells and that top deck would be sick if it was some thick ply wood and carpet it would be so 🔥 🔥.. best of luck with your new vessel!!
Exactly what I was thinking
Im surprised he didnt go into roll on tremclad mode after his first little huff ahah
Super happy for you. Lojo is a good guy and watching your excitement makes me smile dude.
If you want that engine last forever add some blinker fluid to it 🔥
actually
Blinker fluid is obviously for turn signals not old evinrudes. However, with that being said, his deck may need some board stretchers
i love restoring these old motors. ive restored motors from 1910 all the way to 1980's and they are just a blast.
So happy for you Andrew, hope that boat see's loads of fat sallies!
I love the videos man my 3 year old found you and Lojo a few months back just clicking videos he is now obsessed with watching your guys videos we've practically binged all the videos on yours and Lojos channels. You guys have sparked an interest in fishing for him and he loves going fishing with me now! Keep up the great videos they make our day!

Norm

Lojo and yak Pak vs ayo and norm challenge

Your genuine happiness while you were finally ripping across the water was awesome and contagious. It's nice to see good things happening for good people.
You can adjust the screws on the carb all in. Start and work them out till you get a good steady run.
Oh yah. I think we’re almost as excited as you are. Thanks dad and bride for sharing the chore…. Congrats Andrew! And yah… watch out for the wet paint lol.
Boat name "Fat Sally's Revenge"
Congratulations on taking ya boat put for the first time . Took me a year to restore my boat and was the happiest man ever when i finaly took it out
Badgetastic Voyager should be the name. So glad you got a good boat and a great friend who came in clutch. Can’t wait to see more.
I love the slider sticker on the side. My favorite lizard to use is the little slider pumpkin chartreuse tail lizard. Catches huge bass
I have to say that is what fishing is all about!! Your excitement and enthusiasm about your first boat has brought back memories that put a huge smile on my face! Thank you for that! You have earned a new follower.
You and lojo are my favorite. Super entertaining, I stay laughing when watching either of yall. Especially y’all together. Keep it up! Thanks man!
