About two years ago my maiden voyage on a tiny houseboat did not go well. I spent a month and a half stranded right at a pass on the Gulf of Mexico through two storms rip my rotator cuff’s one bicep, ended up having to sell the boat get surgery reinjured myself now I live in a damn camper in a Georgia pasture watching your videos. I love them. Thanks
If the Game Warden gives you a hard time, just claim you just escaped a much larger vessel that has sunk, and thank them for rescuing you. Also throw the Heart of the Ocean overboard if you get the chance.
Be sure to run the glow plugs for at least 10 seconds before you crank it, and it will start a lot easier. Also: I'd check the opposite side of that "hole" you plugged to make sure it's not supposed to be there. It could be a water intake for cooling the exhaust.
I always did 10 sec on, 3 sec off, 5 sec on, 3 sec off and then 5 on and try it. Worked in the coldest winters with my 6.2L and 6.5L blazer. Don't want to run the glow plug heaters for too long cause they can burn out quicker.
You had to dig deep into the specifics to pull a compliment out of that one. Awesome example of "If you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all." 👏 Bravo.
On a positive note, you'll never forget the time you rowed this huge boat and didn't even catch one fish. 😄 It's a story you'll be able to tell to your friends, kids, and grand kids.
Residual fuel from all the times you cranked it. Diesels are difficult to start in cold. Glow plugs help by providing the heat for initial ignition then when the engine is up to temp the compression alone is enough to ignite the fuel. Great video and good to see Smalls.
Watching him crank the boat and seeing the blueish smoke inside/outside then stopping because they thought they may have a fire was probably the most underrated moment. I’m a diesel guy tho so maybe it’s just me 🤣
Y'all two blow me away. I'd have quit five times before ever making it to the fishing hole. The lack of "quit" in you two is beyond commendable. For you both to choke down all of the angst, frustration, fatigue, etc. and put on a smile for the camera...it only speaks to your character and work ethic. Great content.
@Ken Johnson I totally agree with you, except, they don't put on a smile for the camera.... IMHO.....from my observations they're genuinely happy and smiling because every thing that happens presents a new challenge to conquer and there are few other things they love more than they love conquering, well then you can see how it would make them happy!!! AND when multiple things happen like that, if you look at it like you would a month later and be laughing while telling the story, then you would also be laughing at it now, as it can get to where it is an absurd number of issues on the regular for them. I think some of the lets just do it without much planning is part of it in two ways, to make it more interesting and to make it funny, so in a wat it is kind of planned and in other ways, it's fun and funny!!!!
The RELIEF I know this man felt when he pushed that throttle forward and that beast started moving. I FELT THAT, Ayo. It's hard to explain what we feel in those moments on our boats. Almost brings a tear from the happiness.
I'm not into fishing (sorry) and I've never owned (& definitely can't afford one) a boat, but you're strangely compelling and entertaining to watch. Thank you.
As other comments before me have said, the smoke is most likely an exhaust leak somewhere in the line. Diesel engines have a tendency to puff plenty of it when they haven't been started for a few weeks or sometimes even just a few days. Fire up, let her sit to warm up for a few minutes, and you're ready to run. All that said, I see it as a blessing in disguise because you just found where your CO is coming from.
OMG, the possibilities with this boat are almost endless. I foresee many, many years of fun to be had with and I am looking forward to sit back and enjoy the ride. Thanks for another great vid, neighbour.
Greetings from the province of New Brunswick, Canada. I am a subscriber for a long time and always look forward to your videos! Your lifeboat is amazing. With a different propeller you could probably get more speed. Don’t forget that a diesel needs time to warm up the glow plugs. When trying to start it, there should be a middle position on the switch when turning to give the glow plugs time to warm up. Give it 30 seconds, then continue turning the switch until the starter engages. There might also be a separate switch to push in the middle position that you have to push or turn to warm up the glow plugs, before you engage the starter. I think it smoked and stalled because the glow plugs were not warmed up and you flooded the cylinders with diesel. Contact the older gentleman you bought it from and see if he can give you the proper starting procedure.😀🇨🇦
More speed?!?!? That floating zeppelin has horrible steering that was designed for rudimentary emergency navigation only. More speed would cause that lifeboat to need it's own lifeboat.
This is the first video I've ever seen of you. You both are naturally hilarious! I was cracking up and could really feel your candid friendship thru the screen.
I'm from Zimbabwe & when launching my boats in dams etc we very rarely even use a boat ramp (none built on the farm dams I fish)...I've been stuck a bunch of times but it all adds to the adventure!...much respect from zimbabwe 🇿🇼
My boy Smalls. Thanks Ayo for bringing him on. All your content has helped me recover from shoulder surgery and being out of work for 6 weeks. Special shout out to Smalls for keeping my spirits up. You all rock!!!
Having that boat is totally awesome you could do so much with it, you mention that it could be a tiny home yes easily its all about air circulation and the precautions to go with it you could even engineer a fold down platform where you could sit outside and BBQ outdoors, use it as a swim platform etc.
You and Smalls play well off each other. It's like I'm back home in rural NC during the summer jumping off a bridge to go swimming with friends and later doing a little fishing from the bank.
This is unrelated but this is the top comment, so I'll leave this information here: be aware that these lifeboats are made on a native reservation near my home, because the materials they're built with are too carcinogenic to make them in the US.
Getting skunked is never fun. But when you have been skunked as many times as I have, it's really enjoyable to watch someone else "not" catch fish also. Makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. Nice video, really enjoyed it.
The lifeboat converting using appreciating community is pretty neat. I know nothing about them but anytime a video is posted with a lifeboat doing things hundreds of folks come out and offer constructive advice and help and I think its super wholesome
Big agree. I always say be yourself with the homies. Don't worry about it. We all get what it's like to be real with your friends. I ain't gonna make fun of you for being sweet and wholesome anyway, and the ones who will ain't worth your time. People who spend all their time concerned with being "soft" are missing out on life.
Dude I'm invested in any of your videos that involve this lifeboat! I'm not even into fishing, I just love the idea of this thing progressing into something even cooler than it already is!
I forgot to comment last night after my husband and I watched this video. You might not believe that we would enjoy your videos' but WE DO. We laugh with you, we even enjoy the way you give your sponsors plugs. You and your friends are DELIGHTFUL. I'm 70 and a LNHA in northeast Missouri. My husband is in his eighties. He is a M.D. . You have clean wonderful fun with lots of laughter and your friends work together with ease. Easy to watch. We watched three in a row and were never bored.
love that the potential disaster turned out to be nothing! you guys are great doing these videos together. everyone who says lifeboats "suck" is probably talking about the ride -- she's totally fine on a flat lake like that but you take her out on the ocean and she's gonna be pitching and rolling all over the place because she's designed for much more weight. good news is, you start doing your remodeling on the inside and you'll add weight fast -- put in some furniture etc. and she'd sit lower in the water for you pretty quick. I think I would cut out that ballast compartment you were talking about using as a bed, cut out the side seat bulkheads and the foam and then start building out from there. before any of that tho you probably want to sand off that paint and repaint her! start thinking about colors! (you know you wanna do camo...)
Nothing to worry about. Wish they would have called someone who was familiar with diesels. There’s nothing wrong with firing that thing up and rolling with it.
I appreciate you fellas being able to do "straight gay" innuendos without being homophobic. My little brother is gay, he follows your channel and I know he aspires to be like you. Same witt and humour and he loves boats and fishing. He just a little different to ya'll, so thank you!
Most of the time white smoke, especially during start up hints to unburnt diesel in the cylinder, this is very normal in cold weather conditions due to partial combustion until the engine heats up. It could also be water/coolant, which is rare, but I’m guessing you already knew this and we’re going for a more dramatic effect for the video.
@@PreacherwithoutaPulpit I don’t think he was creating “drama” If I’m not mistake ayo said the smoke was dark when it was smoking earlier in the video but then later in the video he said he called his dad and his dad told him the “issue”.
More life boat and smalls content! found this video of my recommended and now I'm here to stay, I'm stoked to see what kind of mischief you get into with the interior design
Ayo, I have no idea how the big wigs in the commercial industry haven’t hired you to just make their commercials for them. You crack me up every time! You do a great job at ads!
i would definitely do some research on your specific engine, but as others have mentioned, you need to wait for the glow plugs to heat up a bit before starting the engine. Also, when checking the oil, wipe off the dipstick, put it back in and then check it. It will make sure you get an accurate reading of the oil level. But the color and viscosity of the oil is another thing. But overall its an awesome boat and im interested to see some kind of renovation to it, doesnt have to be an all out reno though lol
this is prime enterntainment!! lost my shit at the paddling and teared up when she started. i live on a boat and we had problems with our Lisas heart for a good 5 months. and last week she started. and i must admit a cried a bit. more of these videos please. actually the ppl who live on the london canal system often have these live boats and ive seen personal tragedies go down in them bc of the housing crisis in britain. but to end on a positive note love you guys and keep up this kind of content when your having fun!! this made me morning so much better i feel motivated to do me boat electrical!
Smalls is a great addition. The way you guys interact is great. I'm trying not to get hooked on another YT channel... and I don't even LIKE fishing... but dang.
FROM AUSTRALIA, well done guys, that life boat could turn out to be an awesome Lake Camper once properly set up. You might consider re-working the roof with better perimeter rails with a flat deck. It would require a lot of proper planning first before you start any restructure inside and out side. Good luck.
As much as I love Norman and Lojo, you are on another level than they are. It’s not even close. You’re ideas are incredibly original, creative, and so interesting. Can’t wait to see what you keep coming up with.
Ayo is without a doubt my new favorite "youtuber" but more than a youtuber hes just an awesome human! And him, smalls, and norm are like the perfect 3..
2 mins 7 seconds in and my blood pressure is on the rise!! I love Ayo, Norm and LoJo's fun banter. I'm a 42 yo old female who still LOVES Twilight and KNJ 😂 SO glad I found you guys!
More of Smalls! A delightful fellow. Y'all are too funny with that paddling segment. I have been looking out for this video since you bought this thing & it did not disappoint. Well done gentlemen!
In England, there are, roughly, 2000 miles of navigable canals. Upon which many thousands of people live on aboard "Narrowboats", that are either converted historic barges from the 1700's, 1800's, and early 1900's, or of the vast majority of purpose built boats, as full capacity tiny homes. Some are incredibly laid out into the most comfortable homes you can imagine as a boat. Full kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, and usually a twin or queen size bed, or two. One of the popular homes, are converted lifeboats, same as yours. Gutted out, and rebuilt to be as roomy and useful as any large motorhome....that floats.
@@amyshilling7412 Big fan of Cruising The Cut, Robbie Cummings (mostly because he has a Coors sign in his boat), and, while they had a channel, Boating Beyond.
@@alexislaisney3404 There are thousands of canals and almost 20k miles of British coastline to navigate, not to mention over 6000 islands to explore and you want us to believe sailing that limp dick coast line of Florida or your swamp infested waterways are better? Nah mate.
Congratulations on 500k Ayo! I've never fished in my life but I love your channel (and LOJO and Norm's)..I swear my whole family now knows Neighbor Darryl, Davey Gravy..you have me researching on Texas Rigs and buzz baits and spinners..its so cool!
This is the first video I’ve watched of yours. You and smalls are hilarious! I love the positive attitude even when things weren’t going y’all’s way. I would love to see that lifeboat on West Point lake in lagrange once the water level comes up!!
I think the secret to whether it’s a fun boat or torture depends on if you chose to be there, or work said you had to be there. It’s just a big plastic box, so lots of potential for it.
Some states require registration (tax) and safety inspection of watercraft, including something as small as a paddle boat or canoe/kayak. At dusk, navigation lights are a must to prevent collisions with other boats. Check your local laws to stay out of trouble!
You guys are so under rated on here and look like you have the best times. I'm from the south too and I really appreciate what you guys do. Keep up the good work man!
We’ve been waiting for this to drop, good seeing you again AYO. I was at Lake Allatoona in Cobb County, Ga. On Monday & it’s ridiculous how they allow Georgia’s Lakes to lose water each winter especially how wet this winter has been, it’s simply ridiculous!!!
Dude, I look at that thing, and all I can imagine is how cool it would be to put it somewhere in the woods and do it up turning it into an off the grid hunting camp! I know someone who did that with a train caboose.
About two years ago my maiden voyage on a tiny houseboat did not go well.

You took the words right out of my "Had an old Doge with a Cummins which was finiky as heck if you didn't give the glow plugs enough time" to warm up.
It’s a diesel motor hold the glow plug switch down for about 30 seconds then start
Fr the old guy he bought it from even said so the first time it started!
I always did 10 sec on, 3 sec off, 5 sec on, 3 sec off and then 5 on and try it. Worked in the coldest winters with my 6.2L and 6.5L blazer. Don't want to run the glow plug heaters for too long cause they can burn out quicker.

Smalls is hilarious, made me laugh multiple times😂😂😂 the two of y’all are great together
Congrats on 500k AYO!!!! You’re so deserving bro keep it up buddy
"This is going to take years brother" That had me laughing pretty hard.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The best AYO content includes Davy Gravy. The world hath no better sidekick.
In England, there are, roughly, 2000 miles of navigable canals. Upon which many thousands of people live on aboard "Narrowboats", that are either converted historic barges from the 1700's, 1800's, and early 1900's, or of the vast majority of purpose built boats, as full capacity tiny homes. Some are incredibly laid out into the most comfortable homes you can imagine as a boat. Full kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, and usually a twin or queen size bed, or two.
One of the popular homes, are converted lifeboats, same as yours. Gutted out, and rebuilt to be as roomy and useful as any large motorhome....that floats.
Watch Downie Live on his narrowboat adventure...fun stuff!
@@amyshilling7412 Big fan of Cruising The Cut, Robbie Cummings (mostly because he has a Coors sign in his boat), and, while they had a channel, Boating Beyond.
Florida has almost 2000 miles of intercoastal waterways. Maybe another 20,000 miles in waterways.
England is serfland hell to the king
@@SLO-Ride thanks!!
@@alexislaisney3404 There are thousands of canals and almost 20k miles of British coastline to navigate, not to mention over 6000 islands to explore and you want us to believe sailing that limp dick coast line of Florida or your swamp infested waterways are better? Nah mate.
Good to have you back....I hope Davy Gravy makes an appearance!
Congratulations on 500k Ayo! I've never fished in my life but I love your channel (and LOJO and Norm's)..I swear my whole family now knows Neighbor Darryl, Davey Gravy..you have me researching on Texas Rigs and buzz baits and spinners..its so cool!
You should try fishing sometime. Once you do it a few times and understand few things you get hooked on the sport. I'm going fishing tomorrow.
There is so much bromancing here it's hilarious. Very wholesome and genuinely fun.
A really big congratulations on breaking 500K subscribers.
What helps me sleep at night is knowing Ayo facetimes norm in the shower like a real bro would
2 seconds of awkward silence at the beginning
My arms are still sore from paddling that Girthy Girl!! DUDE WE ARE IDIOTS!! 🤣🤣
Buncha good ol boys.... having a good ol time...Man i wish i had friends like this..
off ya go lads!
You know these two are Bruhsbands. A true bromance!
We need more Smalls on the channel!!!!
Im a huge fan of this boat I would love to see it restored more and lots more videos pls
Congrats on 500k!! Keep on doing what you’re doing!
This is the first video I’ve watched of yours. You and smalls are hilarious! I love the positive attitude even when things weren’t going y’all’s way. I would love to see that lifeboat on West Point lake in lagrange once the water level comes up!!
You guys are all awesome... Don't stop doing what you're doing just keep doing what you're doing and don't stop doing what you doing
We missed you brother.. glad your back.. looking forward to more videos!
I think the secret to whether it’s a fun boat or torture depends on if you chose to be there, or work said you had to be there. It’s just a big plastic box, so lots of potential for it.
Ayo hits 500k and he's back!
And yes we need more of smalls in the vids with you, norm ,yak lojo and everyone else.
Can’t forget Davy Gravy!
Another fabulous video! Outrageous humor, over the top foolish antics, and obvious knowledgeable seafarer's, thanks for the show.
Honestly all your vids put a big smile on me. It’s too funny😂😂
500k lets goooooo🎉
Been so excited to see this video. Keep up the good work and don't give up on the itty bitty I cannot wait to see your first overnight in that beast!
Get 62 of your closest friends to join you and see what it's like in there at capacity!! LOL 😂😂👍👍
Or at least 10 to start with.
that dramatic awkward pause after getting in the boat is one of my favorite moments ever
AYO!! You're the MAN. were waiting for that new new!! Get Davey Gravy and Smalls
in more videos!!!
I'm an old dog but would seriously enjoy hangin' with you guys.
Some states require registration (tax) and safety inspection of watercraft, including something as small as a paddle boat or canoe/kayak. At dusk, navigation lights are a must to prevent collisions with other boats. Check your local laws to stay out of trouble!
Happy New Year Brother!!!
Keep em coming! Love watching everything you put out. I say make it a houseboat,it would be awesome.
I know 0 about boats but I enjoyed watching you guys! True friends having an adventure 😊❤
I hope you are well AYO, can't wait for another video. I always drop what I am doing when I get a notification for one of your videos.
You guys are so under rated on here and look like you have the best times. I'm from the south too and I really appreciate what you guys do. Keep up the good work man!
Great video guys. Thanks for all the hard work making this video it had to suck paddling that big boat.
We’ve been waiting for this to drop, good seeing you again AYO. I was at Lake Allatoona in Cobb County, Ga. On Monday & it’s ridiculous how they allow Georgia’s Lakes to lose water each winter especially how wet this winter has been, it’s simply ridiculous!!!
You guys are hilarious together. You definitely feed off each other's energy.
I am addicted to your videos. you are so entertaining and funny! love it!
Smalls is a whole vibe. He should be a permanent fixture
Dude, I look at that thing, and all I can imagine is how cool it would be to put it somewhere in the woods and do it up turning it into an off the grid hunting camp! I know someone who did that with a train caboose.
