OMC Cobra.... OMC dumped an absolutely insane amount of R&D into that outdrive, gimble housing, tilt trim and the shift interrupt, they almost lived, they got the contract with Bayliner but didn't make enough in other sales to stay afloat, they were holding on by a thread for years and finely sold out to Volvo / Penta and that very outdrive is an incredible success, renamed the SX. Anyway, to say that parts for that outdrive are discontinued is a bit of an over statement, in tact and ready for service, it will easily fetch 1500 dollars. the 4 banger is an Iron Duke, they still use those in boats, forklifts, generators and cars, they are inexpensive long lasting little engines with a decent amount of torque. The boat was a POS the day it was made, everything about it is the cheapest available. Surprisingly enough this had the benefit of lightening up the hull by a about 30% of it's leading competitors .... God, i'm so ashamed that i know so much about these boats
We Called them Baysinker around here lol. Buddy had one with a Force Outboard and the first time I went out with him it blew the head gasket. Went thru the engine for him and the engine ran good for years even with a dead choke solenoid would fire up everytime for years
I don't know if he got the 50,000 views in the first seven days he said were needed to make him spend money on the boat to make it run or not. But he sure surpassed that mark now!! LOL. As of a little less than a year later it's at 776,805 views!!! Right on NNKH!! You're Awesome!
People don't understand the amount of hard work and time this man is putting into our entertainment, thanks bro. I just found your channel yesterday with ypur newest video recommended to me out of the blue. Also, one part of this video brought back some vivid memories of my ex girlfriend, any guesses? lol
Hey man, thanks so much for checking out the videos and yeah they definitely take a lot of time and effort to make that's for sure. Greatly appreciate you leaving a comment. And my guess would be you took your ex-girlfriend out and the boat broke down or ran like junk?
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow I'm actually binge watching you now bro. I literally found ypur channel in recommendations. I watched the new jet boat obviously, then the trashliner series, now I'm on part three of the air boat. Definitely going to subscribe now. The amount of work ypur putting into these videos is insane. I will definitely share with my buddies. I love doing the same kind of stuff, from helping little animals to cleaning up fishing spots and rebuilding old stuff to enjoy. The thing that reminded me of my ex girlfriend was when you were draining the water put of the drain hole ........lmao, sorry for the mental picture...haha. Thanks again for all your hard work and dedication.
Your like the New England version of a bush mechanic. It’s a term for the gnarly northern Australian people who do anything to fix a vehicle. Makes for very entertaining content!
For a rust locked engine, or one that has rust in a cylinder, before trying to start it, put some white vinegar in the cylinders, let it sit for 30-45 minutes and usually will unfreeze and as the vinegar dissolves the rust, helps free rust stuck piston rings, and gets a lot of the rust out of the cylinders, gives your rings a better chance after an oil/fuel mix startup. try it, use an engine you thought was so rust stuck it would need disassembly to repair, then you can really see how well it works. might leave it in that type of stuck engine an hour or 2, even overnight.
The hull looks good , the iron duke will never wear out . Just the glass on that thing is 300 to500 bucks . I would strip it down and build the interior .
Good video. There is something so satisfying about putting a new, clean sets of wheels and tires on an old trailer. Gives me motivation to get back to work on the broken boat that I shouldn’t have brought home either. Haha.
I don't know about the east coast but here on the west coast these boats readily available for anyone who wants to put in a little elbow grease. I've been fortunate enough enough to break even by buying them and refurbishing them
I have built boats for 14 years between several companies: Seminole Marine (Sailfish and Southwind boats) Edgewater Power Boats, Brunswick (Sea Ray line) and everglades. I would love to find some of these freebies you have or at least one to restore. Kudos to your efforts and work.
You anywhere near Pennsylvania? I would gift this boat to you if you had plans to restore it. I mean I really don't think an old bay liner like this is worth the effort. Probably worth it to get something way more unique.
All that's left of that boat is the hull, engine and some of the instruments may be okay. The wood inside the transom may even be rotted out and need to be dug out from the inside, then re-glassed. All the flooring and other interior structures have to built from scratch. Huge job. I rebuilt a 17' Sunbird, another OMC boat. Not as far gone as that one, but it had stuff growing out of the carpet also. I was lucky it had an outboard, in good shape on mine. But that inline 4 may be okay also if it will run.
That is the good thing when you are a bad ass mechanic. People and insurances company throw things up because they don't want to deal with them and you can come, fix them, keep them and re-sale it ..
Looks like a 3510 starter. You can probably get one at a junkyard for $15.00. You might even have one laying around. Came on tons of GM products from the late '60s to the late '80s.
Bayliner,s make the best flower pots. You can find these everywhere mostly used for garbage cans after they stop running which in most cases is relatively quickly do to owner lack of maintenance after the first season. What I love here in Michigan is the high school graduates that post the trailer for sale but you have to take the boat, which costs about $50 bucks per ton to dispose of. But usually the trailers are in no better condition because the were mass produced, cheap with a short life span especially if you didn't invest in a quality cover to keep the water out. LMAO. I restored a 1987 Chaparral villain ll only because they are still sought after. Cost a lot, broke even, won't do it again because I Hate Hate Hate fiberglass work. And it has to be done right.
We had one of these. It was an 1988 or 89. I can't remember. It had the 3.0L 4cyl. Something like 135hp (I think). Ours ran great and we never had a problem with it. But we took care of it and never left it out in the elements. Only thing we hated about it that I can remember is that it was loud as hell. We sold it about 7yrs later and aside from a little UV fading of the dash it looked and ran great.
Man that thing is crispy. I remember when I was a kid my father had a Bayliner similar to this one. I think it was a 16 foot Bowrider with a 85hp Force outboard. I always loved how these boats look. OMC though.... That sucks. Would be cool if it had one of them 4.3L V6 inboard outboard MerCruiser.
I bought an 88 bayliner Capri that needs a new exhaust manifold and manifold elbow riser cause there’s a water leaks where the gaskets are between the two. Looking forward to getting her back up to par though, 120hpf on the water would be great this upcoming summer🤙🏾
I’d yank the engine and out drive , steering cable and wheel and switches and cut the boat up but keep the trailer also ! Basically strip it so another boat may live ! Haha 😂
I wouldn't say that. Nothing to lose, tinking around with this old junker. You're the guy taking on big challenges working on high-end stuff! Incredible work you do
Ah another boat, the Bayliner2000, probably sitting in the woods with rusted engine since 1982 :D .... Unfortunately this boat cannot be saved, but maybe there is at least a limited edition David Hasselhoff cassette in a tape player somewhere in the cockpit that can be salvaged and sold on eBay. And Leo is already waiting full of curiosity what the next barnfind (or forest treasure) will be. I am jealous of this tame squirrel - it is so cute!
Leo is looking healthy!!! That boat not so much but hey for free you really can’t go wrong regardless of what you do with it. Thanks for sharing. Would be cool to see if it would actually fire👍🏻
Yeah he's been packing some weight on for winter! I hope he makes it through the cold season. And no problem, thanks for checking it out. Probably end up doing a part two to see if it will run. Going to be a smoky mess I'm sure if it does
I say make a u pull it run for a similar starter that will bolt up and video tape it. People will like seeing the junk yard and the search for good parts. It’s kinda like hunting for rusty treasures. Lol. If it runs then strip the interior and sell it as a project. Or it could be called dumpster fire and you keep it for river exploring.
Another option based on what you said. If everyone wants to see a part 2?, Then let them chip in and pay for the starter. Me included When you get enough money, ya buy the starter. Just a thought.
Harvest any usable brightwork, and maybe a few other items, then take a sawzall to the remaining mulch. Maybe the trailer can be salvaged. The boat is not even suitable as a planter. Been there, done that.
got mine for $250.00 bucks every one said these are trash ! ;[ I still have it its been 7 years since I got it very easy to maintain I'm very happy with it .
That's all I bring home is junk! Get the starter, for our sake, we can get alot of people to pitch in 5 bucks for the starter and a big can of wax! Fan in Florida.
Look up under the manifolds for a crack in the side of the block before going any further. That's where those motors cracked when they froze with with water in them
True. But even if I get it running, it would really need every build. It's days are limited and I'm sure it burns a ton of oil. Just because of the rust
On boats a lot of the time when working on a seized engine you are better off just trying to spin the prop. A lot of boats have a front style mount like that or something blocking you from getting a breaker bar on the motor.
Haha thanks. Yeah if I make a mess around the machine I clean up after myself but I've cleaned that thing before and a couple days later it's covered in wheel weights and crap again. Not worth it.
Hilarious how many people are complaining about the dirty machines in that last video though. Maybe that's what caused it to get so many views. Bunch of haters

Yeah but is it worth it I mean this boat even fixed up can't be worth what you will have to put into it to get it running.
Chris that there is a true statement.

Great tip for sure. I use vinegar to clean gas tanks a lot. This one wasn't locked up too hard though

I was gonna say it looked like a BBC starter.
If we keep it, what shall we name her? The Trashliner? Lol
Treeliner 5000
Obviously
Trashy McTrash Boat

Cuteness over load with the squirrel, he’s lovely.
He really is! I hope he sticks around and continues being a little garage helper squirrel
Regretting bringing home "junk" cracked me up.
Sometimes I'm like..."why do I do this to myself"

The first 6 minutes or so were pretty satisfying.
Thanks for the feedback.

I had this exact same boat. Those motors are nothing but problems. Gas is 2 days old and it doesn't want to run properly. Use it as a reef marker
Another option based on what you said. If everyone wants to see a part 2?, Then let them chip in and pay for the starter. Me included
When you get enough money, ya buy the starter. Just a thought.
old trailers and boats are fragile, gentle pull will save from extra work. But I guess whatever is left of that boat is in good use.
You're lucky those cables didn't come back into the windshield when it broke off trying to get this boat out. Wow
There wasn't a lot of line out. That's more a problem when you have many feet of line out. Plus I had my head down beneath the dash when I reversed
Master!Much greting from Serbia!
@10:26 - We own a couple of chinchillas. They're like a cross between a squirrel and a puppy. Most lovable little creatures I ever owned.
Harvest any usable brightwork, and maybe a few other items, then take a sawzall to the remaining mulch. Maybe the trailer can be salvaged. The boat is not even suitable as a planter. Been there, done that.
Why didn't yours work as a planter? I don't see why it wouldn't be able to be used for that. Or maybe even a hot tub
OMG i wish we had squirrels here in Australia .... i so love them
Good work on your “trash liner”. I am in need of aOMC 3.0 carb. Do not matter if it works, 2 jet rodChester. Let me know,
No, I just need the outside linkage.
after seeing your vid I would have let the local council pick it up for disposal. I know Its sounds harsh but that Sir is life.
Yesss another boat restoration
Lol
100% we want to see you do the impossible. Dam right I want a part 2.
got mine for $250.00 bucks every one said these are trash ! ;[ I still have it its been 7 years since I got it very easy to maintain I'm very happy with it .
Oh man....that Kawasaki! Sweet 😋
OMG that’s my boat! I was out of the country and thought it was stolen! I never had it registered in my name so they couldn’t locate it
no way, was it really? Was it registered to someone else or you don't need a name for a boat trailer/boat in PA?
hihi squirrel steals the show so cute
That's all I bring home is junk! Get the starter, for our sake, we can get alot of people to pitch in 5 bucks for the starter and a big can of wax! Fan in Florida.
Gotta love those 2.2 engines! I have one in my 3/4 NASCAR
First, all hail the mighty algorithm. Second, if all it needs to run is a starter (possible, I spose) maybe someone will want it for a project.
@MichaelcohenLyingPOS he put up a video on his second channel of it running. I don't know how it's running after what it went through
these are my favorite types of videos! good stuff man
Sweet! And thanks
Leo is living the life! Great job with the video. We can't wait for your next one!
Yeah he is! And thanks. I appreciate your support
Fortunately the boats ugliness is offset by Jenns beauty. Enjoy this stage of life you're in!
Absolutely loving your content also learning alot
Awesome to hear that and thanks so much for tuning in
I love this content ❤ I'm really excited to see more videos just like this! 😃 Subbed!!!
You should do a video on what to look for on a jet ski
LEO IS KING !!
The boat that thought it was a submarine!
Get the starter!!! You'll then have 2 swamped motors running again. Doooo it!!!
Very good work on the “trash liner
You’ll get it! You always do.
Good stuff. I have the same engine and it's nice to see it opened up.
Good work man , i am extremely motivated
kinetic ropes are the bees knees lol saved me many times
Yeaay LeO!! shout out from Scandinavia
So happy to see a new video come up! I love your videos dude! I just bought a box of cookies from Wawa so I know what I’m doing later!
Lol. Hell yeah, sounds like a good time. I greatly appreciate the support. Thank you.
New driver .
Lol dang near took out that stump
Look up under the manifolds for a crack in the side of the block before going any further. That's where those motors cracked when they froze with with water in them
Did your wife tame a squirrel? Because that is beyond awesome.
Beautiful to see a Kwaka LTD sitting there in your garage !!!!!
Love project s like this 💯 👌
Get it running, it will be worth it.
Sweet!! I see the baby squirrels growing up pretty big! Love you channel dude you're pretty awesome!
Yeah man he's doing great! And thanks
One mans junk is another mans gold.
Those OMCs are high dollar engines to replace. If you get it running you could make some good money selling it.
True. But even if I get it running, it would really need every build. It's days are limited and I'm sure it burns a ton of oil. Just because of the rust
Great job .
take out all the weight and make it a party barge ... just need an anchor ⚓ and a towboat then ya got more fishing real estate or whatever
Honestly. Walk away when you see OMC the outboard. I do appreciate the effort and Leo
Nice job Chris!
Thanks mad Murdock
Awesome
Those starters always failed and the replacement could not get wet in a boat lol!
Gloves bro, Gloves!
When?
Or do a patreon and see if people will donate to getting it running. I would. 1 dollar person goes a long way.
Would be awesome to have some extra cash, but that seems like begging. Idk... Unless I was doing something charitable with it then maybe.
Yes I'd like to see a part two on the boat.
The boat is rather a case for a trash- bin. However, his beautiful girlfriend with her adorable smile can be a motivation to fix it.
Where did you pull the boat from looks like by me. There was a lot of flooding here
It would have been good to see part2.😊
There's a part two and three on the channel
What did you do? Love it. Been there, done that. Great video.
i suspect the boat looked like that long before the flood that washed it up.
On boats a lot of the time when working on a seized engine you are better off just trying to spin the prop. A lot of boats have a front style mount like that or something blocking you from getting a breaker bar on the motor.
dude , that's my boat !!!🤣 olny kidding
I would have put very much B12 in it to clean out the gunk, turned over the engine if it would turn over to clean up all that white milky stuff
Nice sweep job on the tire change, your mess, you cleaned it up... memba the last vid or so?... have a good one and great content NNKH.
