The most difficult part of doing fiberglass work in Florida is that you have 0.00382 seconds before it starts to kick because it's so damn hot out, I speak from experience 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Very useful video ! I hope you may show us the foam process as well .
Would have been a good time to do a rigging tube under the deck
Reminds me of the structural restoration of my boat. I have a 1960 Glasspar Citation. It was completely dry rotted, the deck, the stringers and the transom. It got re-engineered and rebuilt with a thicker deck, massively reinforced transom, added a bilge and a super beefy bulkhead under the deck under the front seats. Today the deck feels as solid as concrete, I've never found so much as a drop of water when I pull the plugs from the bilge, and when I give it the beans, it jumps out of the water and up on plane in an instant. It's a great old boat, cute as hell. I had the upholstery professionally redone back to 1960 original. I love that boat.
There's something deeply satisfying about bringing an old vessel back to life and seeing it perform better than ever.
One of the best videos you have made in a while, this is the type of content that will definitely make your channel add subs. Keep making these types of videos
Sometimes if you have a narrow gap between a panel and a backer, you can shove a deflated wheel barrow inner tube in between and then inflate it to help pop it free.
Bro I absolutely love these videos. 🙌🙌. So exited to see this to the end and hopefully you’ll have some good footage of it in use after all these are up. Great job brother.
I can't express how much I enjoyed this video. Thank you and G'Day from down under.
Hats off to you! that's a lot of work! But you do a great work!
I agree with others, this is the kind of content we all come to your channel for... Not all that talky talky stuff although that is fun too...
Great video Aaron. Really looking forward to seeing this one to the end. That is a sweet little whaler.
Gday mate ive done a few restos but none on a boat like this , we dont have walers here that is a lot of work look forward to watching the rest and seeing the finished product which i am sure is going to look stunning .
Awesome video and explanation!!! 😊
Great video. Thank you.
Amazing video, please do a part 2
Quality work!
ready for the finale
Looks good
That's a big project right there!
Great job! Would it be better to use peanut butter (resin and fumed silica) instead of Bondo? I've never had any luck with Bondo on a boat.
Definitely going to check out your training on the website but a quick question first, could you split the top cap and bottom at the rub rail and do all these repairs that way? I'm not second guessing your work im honestly trying to learn.
You have to be super careful when doing this. I learned my lesson when I re built a hull and ended up with a hook in the hull. Boat never ran the same. 😢
A pressure washer works great to get off any foam or foam residue
You are tenacious man. That's a huge project. I couldn't do it 😂. Id be giving that thing an overhaul. Flip it over and haul it to the dump😂. Your the bomb for doing this video though. A lot of people are willing to take this on. I unfortunately live in an HOA because I was stupid enough to buy a house in an HOA. I have 48 hrs to work on my boat before I have to take it back to storage for at least a couple days before I can bring it back for another 48 hrs. It sucks I'm moving at a ridiculous pace trying to get stuff done and done right in the Florida Tarzan heat and humidity. My boat is bright white and it's like a frigging giant tanning bed and oven. I have to turn the bilge pumps on to pump the gallons of sweat pouring out of me 😂 . Takes 3 days just to rehydrate 😂. My neighbors frigging hate me😅
Thanks a bunch for the support and the laugh! It sounds like you've got quite the adventure with your boat, battling the elements and the infamous Florida heat and humidity. Don't worry, we're all in this together. Keep cool, stay hydrated, and keep those bilge pumps pumping! 😄
What was the final bill for this build? John from Cape Cod
I have a whitewater boat that I just acquired.. it's a 2005 17ft cc ... no soft spots in the floor and the transom seems really solid .. but I'm still worried if it water logged because it seems like was poorly taken care of .. It's a really cool hull tho.. I have no idea about how white water stringers are constructed .. been trying to research as much as possible .. have not had the boat in the water yet to see how it floats .. it may not need to get refoamed at all .. but I'm trying to see what kinda job fixing fiberglass boat is... lol it looks like work .. but idk im up for it if it needs it. .. I also am gonna re gel coat the boat ... I'm really hoping my boat isn't water logged ... because re-gel coating looks like a lot of work too .. the less work the better .. hopefully it's just a matter of re-applying a gel coat
did you consider building the glass back and pouring a liquid transom? i know nothing. sorry if this is a dumb question.
When this is done you have to let us know how many hours you put in on this project?
So those blocks along each side hold up the sides of the deck but is there nothing that holds up the center of the deck?
Could have used qcell to thicken the resin and avoid any of those pieces falling
a snow shovel in FL... who knew
How did you get that plate off the back? I have that on my boat that I need to get off. thanks! BTW great work!
Pry bars and hammers lol and thank you!
Seems to me that the transom was filled with "structural" foam. There are some real strong foams available that would probably be just as, if not stronger than, plywood.
What's the purpose of having the helm that far up on the bow?
Bully netting for lobster
If you run a snake in there would it destroy all the foam, making it easier for you?
Great video but my question is how much should one expect to pay for this type of job? It’s coming up on the end of boating season in my area and there are always good deals on boats that need a little TLC.
The big question is, “how much does the resin cost along with the other supplies?“ as an old guy who has been restoring boats enjoying boats flipping boats and loving them for over 60 years, Born again boating is perfect with its double meaning intact.
Boat values fluctuate dramatically between January and June. Of course January is the time to buy even if you live in Wisconsin, Michigan, or Minnesota.
Will that foam gradually soak up water if the boat has a little crack in the fiberglass and is left in the water? I just got a 30 foot catamaran where someone filled the bottom foot of the pontoons with foam and laid a fiberglass floor over that. Should I cut out all that foam and put in a proper bilge pump? Or is the foam going to be OK?
Just watched your second video on this boat. Guess you've got too many viewers to answer questions anymore.
A boat builder can never have enough clamps!
I have watched ALOT of your videos. My question is the brackets for outboards. I need to know more about them. I have watched every video you have on them and it doesn’t quite answer it. Like to glass a transom and add a bracket for example. Pros cons. Etc
Did I miss the part where you were supposed to refill the floor with foam?
ruclips.net/video/dJa8-nYEItQ/видео.html
is it worth doing all this work on such a small old boat?
Please walk us through the process (from start to finish) how you evaluate if a boat is worth doing this. 🤔
Not worth it
DON NEEEE !!!
How on earth did they get away without having a full transom?! Great education.
That foam is actually really supportive.
Can u bend Coosa ??
I'm surprised that you did not pour foam under decking
Wow! Seems like it would have been easier to build that boat from scratch. Nightmare. How do you charge for something like that?
Time and materials
What is that boat used for with that console on the front deck?
Key West Waterman (on RUclips) lives in the Keys and had a Gheenoe made with the console up there so he could see directly in front of the bow as he cruises through skinny water. Seems odd, but works well for him.
It’s for bully netting lobster
I think you need to get a few glass lessons from Andy
what size whaler is this?
It's a 13
Maybe I missed an explanation in the video, but it seems like the easier fix would have been to separate the cap and hull.
The foam in a whaler is everywhere, up,to the top of the gunnels, and the hull-to-deck joint is glassed. They don't come apart easily
Brother where are you located?
Good day! Rose here, grateful for your comment! However, I'm unable to answer your question directly. We've found that these types of inquiries are better-handled one-on-one. That's why we've established a channel membership for weekly live discussions. If you're intrigued, simply click the "Join" button next to our channel name. Much obliged!
@@BornAgainBoating I understand, Iam not interested in a membership I just have a bayboat that needs work done if he is interested .if not is ok I will find someone else.
Thank uou
We are located at Sebastian FL
Interesting but please take your sunglasses off when talking to the camera.
Is that a Boston Whaler? If not I wouldn’t waste my time that little boat lol
It is a little whaler
Late to the game there bud. And you clearly commented before watching either all of this one or the first video.
What is “pookie” and “Coussa”?
Pookie is just resin and silica mixed together and coosa is a composite fiber board that won't rot! It's a wood replacement :)
!!!!!
bondo🤣
Better to buy a new boat
Why post the video on pieces bruh. Just post the whole thing. Such a lame thing to do for views
What the heck is pooky? 😂
