Here’s the restoration video if you haven’t seen it yet.

One thing to remember is don't unhook your front strap of your boat until you get it to the water. If you would have to stop quick your boat could slide off the trailer. I've seen it happen before. Beautiful restore!
@@DW-hm3kisome people just do it differently idk why though.
Nice job on the restoration . Looks great
boat looked good on the water, and like i said before you did a great job on it
Thank you!
Boat looks great brother! Lots of memories to be made in that thing, good times.
Thank you!
Watching this video really makes me miss my boat. I will offer this advice. Use ethanol free gas and check the drain plug area. I drug mines two hours to a new lake only to find the drain plug assembly has corroded and cracked. I had to load it back up and drag her home. I replaced it with a brass unit from Bass Pro shop. You really have her in prime condition. Congrats.
Thanks for letting me know, been told that by a couple people already so I’ll definitely use ethanol free gas from now on. And I need to replace the drain plug assembly because the original plastic one on it is slowly leaking, not much maybe half a gallon for the whole day but still annoying that it does that.
Fantastic job on the rig! Always remember to wear your kill swith along with the life jacket! Cant wait for the next build!
Thank you! Yes I need to buy one asap.
Nice fishing video without any of the fake excitement. Good job my friend.
Wow u killed the transformation on this rig! U go cuzz.. best wishes and happy sails to you
Please bring more boat restorations. I really enjoy watching the RUclips channels that feature these. It motivated me to bring my first one home. A 1979 Glastron. I would also like to see what the total cost was to restore your boat. Maybe an itemized list?
Thanks for watching I will definitely make more restoration vids! And next video will be about the cost of restoration.
Way to go. I just restored my 40 year old skeeter boat. Took me almost 3 months. Gutted and restored to immaculate condition. It was very surprisingly enjoyable. Cost of a new boat was waaaay out of my price point. No regrets. I wish you well my friend. Thanks for sharing with us. 🤝
Wow awesome 👏
And thank you!
Nice job on the boat. Few pointers, the chains should cross to catch the tongue of the trailer if it were to come off. Also older motors are not ethanol friendly so need to use gas stabilizer that removes it, they make it for marine applications. Enjoy the boat.
Thanks for the tips, the chains are not long enough to cross them other wise the catch on the hitch when I make sharp turns, but for the non ethanol gas I did not know but now I will. Thanks
Never unload your boat that way. Start it and back it off. For two reasons. You know it will run. And if rope breaks you lose your boat across lake. My friend lost his life trying to retrieve his. Wonderful job restoring
Beautiful boat man! You did a hell of a job restoring it
Thank you!
As I said in your last video, great job. No matter what it cost to restore, you have a brand new boat for cheap!
Thank you!
Awesome job! I’m looking for a project like this with my son. Boat looks sweet mate. 👍
Congratulations on a job well done. Enjoy that new boat!
Thank you!
Well done sir! You should be proud
Thank you!
I can’t believe you got that boat for 600 $ . I’ve been wanting to find an old ranger to restore
It’s possible just need to keep looking and act fast when a deal like that pops up.
You've done a great job on getting your boat looking and running nice! Almost looked like Stockton Lake! Great catch and I will keep and eye out for you on the Missouri lakes! Spot lock is awesome isn't it?!
Thank you and you have a good eye haha 👍 spot lock is amazing I just installed that Minn kota never had one before.
You’re a cool and humble guy. Really enjoying the vids.
Thank you so much!
Congratulations man! I'm sure that was a great feeling, getting out on the water and catching fish after all that work.
Thank you! It sure was an amazing feeling!
After you load that boat up, make sure you trim that motor all the way down so all the water can drain out of the lower unit.
Will do!
Great channel sir keep up the good work
Thank you!
Make sure you use a kill switch. Love the content. Keep up the good work. Stay safe!
Thank you! Already ordered one.
Wow that boat turned out great
Thank you!
Man I see things are working good that what up keep your video's coming
Thank you, I sure will!
Fantastic job dude. Remember to wear your kill switch!. Extremely important
Really good work ! I just got this same boat in the same condition. Can’t wait to restore
Awesome 👍👍
Boat looks great! Love the boat restoration and modification content! Keep the vids coming!
Thank you! I Sure will.
Awesome series! I know you didn’t ask lol, but as someone who has spent well over 15k on motor repairs during my time owning boats, I would advise only putting ethanol free gasoline in your boat. And even add a fuel stabilizer just in case. Keep it up man.
Thank you! Will do.
This time of year is when I love crappie fishing. Usually early spring is when I stop crappie fishing and fish for bass. You could make good money restoring boats and then flipping them. It would be a lot of work but it probably would be worth the effort. You caught some good crappie and I enjoyed your video! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! I definitely could but if I ever did I would get a shop first.
Congrats on the quick growth of your channel
Thank you!
Trim it up brother you'll really be impressed 😂
Perfect video man! You keep this up, we'll be celebrating 1k subs in no time!
Thank you I appreciate it and can’t wait!
You did an awesome job and your hard work will sure be worth it. That is a really nice boat.
Thank you!
You killed it on the bass boat!
Really nice job on the boat restoration, did a complete restoration on a 19 ft StarCraft a couple years back, very satisfying!!!
Thank you! Yeah it’s an awesome feeling to bring something back to it’s original shape!
That boat turned out beautiful, I actually and restoring a 1984 Cajun bass boat as a 14 year old it is definitely a project lol I hope I can get mine to be on the water for the first time in over 20 years soon. Keep up the great work
Awesome! Good luck with the boat hope you finish it soon 👍
@@Ace.Fisher yes just got it all back together and now I have to put the motor on and the floor foam in
Keep aiming up . Find a little bigger fix up and within 3 or 4 boats you can have your dream boat . Took me 5 boats untill I got the one I wanted pretty much free just alot of shining and cleaning.
This was an awesome transformation
Thank you!
Glad it turned out to be a very good boat for you!
Thank you I’m loving it so far!
Great job on the boat...I've been looking for a deal like that for years ..enjoy that sweet ride
Thank you! Yeah it takes patience to find a good deal!
I have the same boat from 93 except 16 foot and 60hp. Rick Clunn in blue metal flake. 40mph no problem and super stable. Best boat I’ve owned so far
Damn fine job my man you did something to be proud of
Thank you!
Keep the videos coming! You have done some really great work!
Thank you! I sure will.
Great Job. I'm 1 of those 671 Thumbs up.. You caught more than some of the guys who have LiveScope. 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you 😄
I have the same boat for $500
Much worse condition unfortunately
Been sitting outside under some trees for the past 8yrs with no cover
Finally talked my friend into selling it to me
Hopefully i can do half as good as you did in yours
Time will tell
Slowly but surely
Sincerely
Robert from GA
Cool! The worse the condition the more satisfying the end result will be when you’re done with it 💪
I’m looking for a bass boat for $500 or $600 if u can find one for that will be a big help for me.thank u
Thanks for the tips I’ll wet sand mine soon to bring the shine back
It sure makes a huge difference! I love to see the boat shine in the sun light.
I'm impressed. New bass boats cost 100k and did this on a low budget.
Thank you!
Great job on the boat!!!👍👍
Thank you!
Awesome video 👍 crappies are my favorite to target try shore lunch batter
Thank you will do!
I just restored a 1984 ranger 350v. Its been a great boat. Youd be amazed how nice a full recarpet looks. My boat is fire orange. I like your color much better.
Thank you! I would replace the carpet but the current one doesn’t bother me too much 😆
Always put your hat on the throttle 😎🇺🇸
Need to start working on that habit 😆
Great work on the boat!
Looks like Table Rock! Great place!
Stockton
Nice job on your boat, im restoring a 07 800lxs nitro, cant wait to get it done, n start fishing with it, but great job on yours!!!
Thank you and good luck with your boat!
Man that looks sharp !!!
Thank you!
great job it looks great
Thank you!
Those water speed gauges are off they read faster than what you’re actually going. Check with gps see if yours is off. Mine was 3-5 mph off
Ok I will look at the humminbird next time to see what it’s showing.
@@Ace.Fisher Yeah the GPS is much more accurate . My water gauge says im going about 5mph faster then my Humming birds do. I have the same Helix 7 and same boat too.
If it’s only off by 5 miles then it definitely goes 45 because after I trimmed it right it went over 50, but I have a 23 pitch prop on it which doesn’t belong on it, what pitch is your prop? I’m thinking to get 19p
If it planes good and rpm’s are correct at wide open throttle and trimmed right then 23p. Seems high for a 90hp though. Mine had the 75hp and fastest I got with a 19p was 46 on gps. I’ve since repowered with new mercury pro xs 115,hydraulic jack plate and hydraulic steering. Whole new animal
Oh dang nice upgrade 👍👍
Just found your videos, very nice job on the boat,very cool.
Great job!!
Thank you!
Great job. I restored an older Bass Boat a few years back. It did not come out quite as good as yours did but I made money on it when I sold it.
Thank you!
You should do a catch, clean, and cook video
For sure one day!
You can purchase fabric paint or dye maybe a rust oleum product and it looks great .. I saw it on some automotive channel ..
you should have filmed the cooking process! boat looks great
Nice boat and great content! World be nice to have Look outside the boat while testing speed
Thank you!
Great job, looks like my home lake Stockton near the dam if I’m not mistaken.
Yes sir!
And during the winter months try some small to medium size live bait minnows
Figure out their depth and drop it literally on their nose
Set your bobber depth about a foot or 2 tops above the fish you see depth
Once you cast let it sit for a few minutes then
Slow slow real in and mix in some slight pauses during the reel in
Most of the time you don't even have to reel though
Thanks for the tips will try that!
really great job......keep it up.
very cool good for you!
Good stuff bro!
Thank you!
Nice job on the boat and good video. Hope to see you on the lake and if you know that part of the lake it warms up last. Good luck
Thank you! I’m thinking to try CC next week.
@@Ace.Fisher excellent choice and don’t let the crowd on the boat ramp scarier go for it.
Great job
Thanks!
$2 per gallon! Lol wow!!!
Yeah it’s cheap around here :)
Very nice job!! Just sub!!
So cool watching this I have the same boat I didn’t find mine in a lot better shape tho but it so cool seein the same boat love the old nitros
55 to 60 shouldent be out of the question with correct prop . My skeeter 17f 90 hp 60 was easy cruise. Loved that ol boat
You should always wear your life jacket when the big engine is running & hooked up to the kill switch. Also when you're by yourself fishing, wear a life jacket in case you fall overboard, if you do go over the the side & you're alone you can use the big engine to trim yourself into the boat. Be safe, happy fishing & GOD Bless. 🐟
Awesome 👌
Omgoodness after seeing ye passes I are way too low on yr trim. The boat is pushing too much water!! Trim UP BUDDY
Thanks for letting me know that but I figured that out at the end of the day 😅 that’s how I was able to get the boat to go over 50 it was riding much smoother too.
So all in, how much did you put into it? Not including your time. Regardless of the answer, you did a phenomenal job. We call those sacalait in South Louisiana. One of the best eating fresh water fish around. You had a hell of a first day on the water. Congrats!
Thank you! All together cost me about $2350!
Well keep the likes a subs coming and you just keep the videos coming!
Thank you will do!
hey man great job on ur boat it looks awesome i had a question maybe u can help what model of helix 7 is ur fish finder ?? mega di si msi or mdi i was just trying to see how much urs costs thanks
Thanks! I have helix 7 3gn mdi, and helix 7 4gn mdi. I would prefer the one at the console to be msi but I bought these both on market place for cheap so I couldn’t really pick and choose.
I didn't see you wearing a kill switch lanyard.
That’s right I only recently got one
did anyelse see the open transome plug that wasn't put in?
mines the blue 17 foot model with a 90 hp evinrude and it tops our at about 38-39 with 1 person. i do run 4 batteries but I still cant belive urs does 50
Crabtree cove 👌🏻
Are you trimming your motor when you get on plane? Watching you pass by the camera seems like you could go faster but the boat seems not trimmed up at Could be wrong , just curious.🙂 subscribed’
is yours mixing its own gas? if it is i 1000% recomend buy the moter part to replace that and mix it yourself i got the same boat in blue
It was but the first thing I did is delete the oil injection system.
do you have any suggestions on how to fix live well plumbing in a bass boat?
It’s usually hard to get to, but my boat has an access to that area thought the back board behind the seats.
Nice job. What buffer did you use? And compound and wax?
I bought a cheap buffer on Amazon but that was like 10 years ago, and I used meguiars one step compound.
What software/app are you using to edit the videos on if you don’t mind me asking?
I’m using CapCut app
When fishing on a cold day that throttle becomes a thermostat. The more you push the handle down the colder it gets.
100% 😂
how was towing with the sequioa? i have a lx470 and been considering a bass boat.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have a 1994 Mariner (Mercury) 90hp that looks just like your outboard. Do yourself a favor and buy the kit to delete the oil/gas mixer pump. If it goes bad and they do... It will destroy your motor. I swear, Mine actually runs better and a little faster after I deleted it. Get you some rod socks too lol.
Where can u get the oil/gas mixture delete kit I have a 94 115 that I want to delete it on
I ordered mine through a local mercury marine dealer in my town. Not amazon... Was like $40 or $50 about 3 years ago.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
What we’re using for bait ?
Looking good! What prop do you have on there?
Thank you! It has a quick silver laser 2 it’s 23 pitch but I’m thinking to go down to 19P.
Ace, where you at?
Missouri!
