I totally agree. I’ve shot gelcoat without thinning and it’s not terrible but it does orange peel like crazy. Duratec really does lay down close to paint like and makes for much easier wet sand and polish! 🤙🛥️🌊

Hey Trevor! We actually tie it to the Bimini top but off center. We installed a fresh water tank now on the boat so we use that now which is much easier. But the bag works well. Ask away we love to help! 🌊🛥️🤙

I think you can make any boat fish friendly. You can add a couple rod holders and youre good to go! 🤙🛥️🌊

I am the luckiest guy there is! She’s game for everything for our channel. Camping, filming, fishing, anything! And most importantly, supports my crazy ideas! Thanks for the comment!🤣 We appreciate you watching! 🌊🛥️🤙

@@perfectfitboating i can tell, we both lucked out mine is ride or die also

Love to hear it! 🤙🛥️🌊

Not sure what you mean, sir. What part of the video are you speaking of.

You’re right about that! Small batches is the way to go! 🤙🛥️🌊

Same here

Thanks Nick! The upper most plug is supposedly a vent plug or a plug for filling if you don’t have a pump. Hope that helps! 🌊🤙🛥️

Awesome thank you for your quick reply back. Huge help.

No problem! 🌊🛥️🤙

Thank you buddy! She almost did in that heat! That cabin gets hot real quick!🤣🤙🛥️🌊

That’s reassuring! We didn’t have much luck with the duralast batteries we had! 🛥️🌊🤙

You do it once and you’ll be hooked!🌊🛥️🤙

Thanks for the comment Miguel! Glad you enjoy the content! 🌊🤙🛥️

What’s awful about it? The color?

Yes the color..but I guess for a woman or transgender it would be ok

Thank you so much we appreciate that! We own an 85 Grady we’ve gone restoring little by little. You can Check out some of our videos and all the projects we’ve done to get her water ready! 🌊🤙🛥️

Thank you my brother! 🤙🛥️🌊

Hey cap! That’s a good point. Although it came from factory like this, having the switch in the cabin would be better. Thanks for watching! 🌊🤙🛥️

That’s a good idea! 🤙🌊🛥️

That’s one way of doing it yes! It seems you have your starter battery ONLY to start your motor and does not power anything else am I right?

@perfectfitboating you are correct. I have starter cranking battery and switch in the bilge. Wired to position 1. House battery is deep cycle wired to battery switch in the cabin. It is also wired to position 1. When I first board the boat I with put both switches to the both position. I assume they are both being charged when the engine is running. I bought the boat a few years ago and this was the existing wiring. It had to cranking batteries. I replaced both. One cranking and one deep cycle for house accessories. Never had an issue starting with this procedure. I have always wondered if this is the correct setup

It’s a little difficult to see it in my head but I think the way you have it wired works. You can always test it while running to see if it’s charging. I would have the bilge pump wired to the house but that’s just me. Good on you for changing the other start to a deep cycle. Do some testing with a clamp meter and if you’re getting charge, leave it as is since it works for you. 🌊🤙🛥️

@@perfectfitboating thank you 😊

@craigdoyle2155 no prob! Thanks for watching! 🤙🌊🛥️

Thank you steva! ♥️

Thank you buddy! 🤙🌊🛥️

Thanks for watching Dave!🤙🛥️🌊

Yeahhhh interesting is fitting. Hasn’t quite hit the right points for this market yet. As I understand it, it’s a boat built for a whole different style of Nordic boating. We actually got a ride on this boat and it performed incredibly. If they dial it in for the US market it can do well. Jeanaeu was alright just a little cheap in some areas and Parker is exactly what you said. Paying a whole lot for not much of anything. 🌊🛥️🤙

That’s a good tip as well. Although this particular switch has a safety feature for that if i remember reading the instructions correctly. The cheaper ones definitely do not! 🤙🛥️🌊

That’s a smart move. Should be down a little more. We noticed 10-20% drop from the year before to this year.

@@perfectfitboating hopefully I can save a little on a leftover 2024

They don’t fully cure. Once you do the last layer of waxed gel coat the under layers fully cure. Hope that helps.

@@perfectfitboating Thank you.

That’s true. It’ll smoke like hell for a while! 🤙🌊🛥️

@@vinsanity0492 great info brother! We used to have that switch when we had the acr. the acr got damaged over time and we decided to go back to the most simple setup. Thanks for the tips and comment! 🤙🛥️🌊

Of course! You can toggle the switch while in use you just don’t want to switch it to off. You could also switch it to combined while running to charge both batteries but charging the house battery would take pretty long that way.

You can’t have to switch #2 or both

That’s right. As youre running the motor, you’d have to switch over to both or 2. Realistically, your house should have enough charge for an outing and you just charge the house battery at home with a charger. 🤙🌊🛥️

@@perfectfitboating i made on my boat 1 relay with two outputs. when relay has no 12v its charging bat1 and when i aplay 12v its switches charging on bat2. u need to pull out charging cable from motor(rectefier) inside boat and wire it next to switch for nr1 and nr2 bat and connect directly on inputs from bateries. from relay outputs i conected on dash battery tester so i know status of charge on every batery so i can charge it accordingly. u can buy for cca 150-200 euros device that does this automaticly and my design costs araund 20-30 euro. sory for my bad english greetings from croatia!

Your English is just fine my friend! We used to have what’s called an “automatic charging relay” on this boat before we installed this. I know exactly what you’re talking about and they work great! 🤙🛥️🌊

Thank you for watching my bro! 🛥️🤙🌊

Hey bud! Thanks for the comment we appreciate that! I was comparing the 1/0 being bigger in diameter than the 2awg but I might have written it wrong in the screen. Let me try and fix that. Thanks for that

Gotcha at min 4:00 I understood two aught which means 2/0. Ok but you meant 2 awg (or #2 cable) not 2/0. Awg = American wire gauge. Aught = 0. Watch all your videos. Keep up the great content!

Ahhh got it! Had me nervous there thought I had to do editing magic! 🤣 thank you for watching brother I appreciate you! 🤙🌊🛥️

@@perfectfitboatingit was me that didn’t read the caption 😅 2 awg. Guilty 😵‍💫

Great job guys 🛥️🌞🐠

Thank you for the comment brother and thanks for watching! 🛥️🌊🤙

I think he said 70+

Thanks Gary! The marine Tex worked great. Been over a year and zero leaks! We’ll eventually get a new tank too! 🤙🌊🛥️

We’re not teaching anything. We’re going through boats and reviewing them as normal people that like boats. We don’t assert ourselves as experts on what you should or shouldn’t buy. It’s based on our experience as normal boaters. Hence why the videos do so well (most boaters are just like us). Thanks for commenting.

My brother, thank you so much for the kind words. I’m truly humbled by them. I’m also so happy that the video was able to help you. My goal was to help people like you were just like me when i started and was researching on how to do it. I appreciate you commenting and showing your support! Thank you so much! 🤙🛥️🌊

No motor

@@ralphchristian9273 that’s a great idea!!🌊🛥️🤙

No problem! Glad I could help. If I remember right they were perko. We have the two little scuppers on each side I’m not sure if the ping pong ball will work since both holes are so close together. I might just go with the flap that covers the scupper. Does it really help keep water from coming in on your boat? That’s so great to hear you did your deck plate! Not too difficult of a job I’d say! Good on you for tackling that job! 🤙🛥️🌊

Gary, thank you so much for watching! When we did the transom on this boat, we used the plastic thru hulls. We didn’t want to buy the tool that’s used to bevel the edge and we were on a time crunch to get the motor mounted. They worked just fine and have held up without any issues. The other Grady transom we did had plastic scuppers installed as well. I think what I’m going to do in addition to these thruhulls is the ping pong scupper or the flap. Both bolt to the outside of the scupper and allow water to drain but don’t allow water to get in. 🌊🤙🛥️

Thank you for watching buddy! 🤙🛥️🌊

Thanks for that Keith! We thought the 1095 was a pretty bad ass boat! I read that dometic logo and figured it might be an ac or fridge but it wouldn’t open so I didn’t want to break it. Two fridges is a plus for sure! 🤙🌊🛥️

Thank you my man! And thank you for your ongoing support of our channel! We appreciate you! In my mind I’m a perfectionist but I gotta get it together with organization! 🤙🌊🛥️
