if you're reading this, watch your back, gravy is watching you, he's always watching...
I love the evolution of how yall have gone from living in fear of being chased out of Home Depot to now the employees recognizing and aiding you guys.
Money Talks and Everyone Listens.
I noticed that, too! They have also become quite well know. Celebrities in their community.
Doing more for home depots business then anyone else
Home Depot realized the amount of money they spent and said hold on one second let's no be rash.
50 thousand dollars later
I'm a new sub to this channel as of today. I found it 2 days ago with the itty bitty build. Ive been binge watching ever since. This guy is a gem and the world needs more like him. The way he treats and includes Davy Gravy in the videos is what sealed the deal for me. I have a sister with cerebral palsy, our mom died when we were young. I took guardianship over her and have always made sure to include her in everything. Doctors told mom she would never even walk. She not only walks and talks perfectly, she thrives. I built her a full house that connects to my main house. She has her own bathroom, kitchen, living room and bedroom. She can come hang out with me by opening one door. She's the best aunt and sweetest most genuine person I know. Ive seen alot of me in watching Ayo help Davy. Just a super cool dude and I appreciate people like him. Much love bro.
A whole year after you that itty bitty video found it’s way into my feed lol.
That Home Depot worker was chill af, props to that man
Yeah we(e)'d be chill to💨😂
Fr the goat of the video !
What would he be upset about lol, "call the cops these guys are being law abiding citizens!"
Get him on next episode
@@Cgod1000 watch just about any episode they go to Walmart. They will get told not to film and get kicked out.
You guys always make me feel better about my life choices. That Home Depot worker was chill af, props to that man.
Uwu😷😷😷
Please let there be more videos of this build. That thing will be awesome once it's decked out.
Yes ! 😄
They literally mentioned the upcoming Part 2 at the end in their singing 😛
@@LHyoutube well excuse me for being partially deaf.
I gotta see a camp out catch & cook with These guys and Davy Gravy!!!😂😂😂
@@tiremanboozeri hear you bro. Jokes apart, me too, and the subs work funky with anything other than normal speech. Am thinking on those to bone headphones lately. Be well
Now you all have to deck it out and do a 100 hour challenge, with snacks, generator, games, all kinds of fun challenges. If you do that, the bois will give you 1 mill before norm
I love the juxtaposition of Avo freaking out about the price of wood with Norm and Mason being like, “which toilet is the best?”
the duality of man
And then then saying they're gonna put it out on 2x4s over the lake. I'm glad I don't fish the same lakes they do.
@nathanjasper512 I all ends up in the same place😅
@@nathanjasper512 fish poop in the lake sorry to break it too you but they wouldn’t actually poop in the lake lol
This was definitely one of your best videos. This boat is massive. It is going to provide so much new content. I don’t know how this thing can ever be moved from this lake to another, where are you going to keep it?
Must do a part 2+!! We want to see it dolled up and rolling down the lake in style
Agree 100%
Seriously. This thing would be cool as shit if able to be anchored in a lake or something. The pretty good got some good bones!
Absolute must. Finishing touches boys. Get some screens on those windows so you don’t have bug problems and you’ll be golden
Build a train next time smaller of course but have an engine, passenger car and caboose. That would be a real challenge.
fr
We the subscribers demand a part 2! Upgrades and furnishings! That is the best build yall have ever done, good work guys
this was awesome , good to see everyone working together . deff need to do a 24 survival or longer on that !! .. if the wife will let yea haha . lets see more of these types !! love the channel
Make more videos where you guys combine your powers for good. You know, like Voltron!! This was a ton of fun to watch and I can't wait to see the raft get decked out with a toilet, lights and a welcome mat. Nice job!!
Norm telling mason to come down and help with the roof was the best.😂 “Let’s talk about it for a while.”😂😂
Agreed! Gotta be a part 2 with siding and motor. And a finish all in budget would be cool!
What could go wrong? You guys are naval architects of the first order. Your country is lucky to have you.
Damn fine Americans.
My first thought is what happens when the wind picks up to 50-60 mph? I live around water, so I know what happens. Our raft with a change house became a raft with a change house that had no windows, no door and no roof. Real fast.
You 4 are hilarious together. I love how y'all play off eachother. Keep up the great content. It's way more fun then whatever the streaming services are putting out 😅
You're energy and kindness is unmatched on UA-cam, every video you create is top content. Keep rocking it
Lil bro, THIS should be your new PB video!! I've seen many, many offerings ( and enjoyed all ). I watched it late last night and laughed so much, I thought I'd wake the household. Even the sponsor's spot cracked me up! Definitely need to do an overnight fishing trip with that build...of course, with the guys! Keep up the good work!!
Its impressive how strong Ayo is. Guy was definitely an offensive tackle lol. I absolutely love your videos and it always makes my nights better when you post. especially the build videos, and your boat build videos!
Great Video guys! Glad you took inspiration from us at The Legend Of The Ouse.
Only correction is the tyres weren't ballast they were for protection for mooring purposes 😊
One of my favorite fishing channels Can’t get any better then ending a work night with a Ayo and norm video
Boat channels. Not much fishing videos
I think a 24 hr catch clean cook on this boat would be dope. Like get a grill and entertainment and some sleeping stuff. That would be a fun video.
Another great video for the boys, don't make us wait to long for the next camping adventure on this new floating house, ayo! 😂
Looking forward to part two guys, but I can't help feeling you'd be safer with an extra drum at each corner for better buoyancy 😉
The most entertaining guys on UA-cam. Love watching all the fellas have fun! P.S. Waiting for an upload Norm!
this is the all star crew right here
It obviously your best build yet, and I can’t wait to see the next chapter of this build. You need to get some running lights on it and at least do an overnight catch and cook. Make sure Gravy is with you guys. Best episode yet.
Smalls is very funny at the perfect moment which makes videos like these very entertaining.
Love me some good Home Depot shenanigans!
And... you've spent a lot on the itty bitty when this thing can top it all with a little modification and improvement interior wise.. I love this. finally something floating without tipping over.. win win
I love it, are you guys working together to save the day with some content. You're like the avengers of fishing UA-cam. Love this video! Super cool, I wish I could go camping and fishing in that raft.
How great it is to be young and filled with life that's carefree
These kinds of videos are so chill. I love how they are clearly grown but you could see them doing this stuff as teens or children and going on adventures. This is boys being boys, now hold my beer.
oh man PLEASE continue this build! so awesome! you could try loosening a couple caps to let just a small bit of water in a couple of the barrels to help it stabilize and keep it bottom heavy.
It’s crazy how far ahead you film these videos, Fathers day at this point is two months ago, it just shows how much time and effort it takes
By far my favorite of the build videos on You Tube. Can't wait to see what you do with it in the next vid.
You guys always make me feel better about my life choices
7:30 I did too. "damn... damn boy, damn boy he thick boy! dats a thick ass boy!"🤣Norm and Mason are hilarious this whole vid. Please tell me there's a part 2 and 3 where yall decorate, fish and camp .
Cant wait to see you guys do a overnight catch clean cook on the new build love it !
WE WANT FAMILY CAMPING ON THE BOAT!
Guys this build is beyond epic. I’m loving this so much.
39 mins and 57 seconds of guaranteed laughter! I also live here in Alabama and you all remind me of my friends! Keep up the great work!
Make sure y’all show ayo some love. He’s been puttin the work in for us and a deserves so much
It's amazing. As people we spend years restoring a factory build boat. Every step of the way is overly complicated and expensive.
Yet, in two days we can build a brand new one twice the size. All while using common materials. You should add some windows and siding on it.
This thing is legit!
@AYO Fishing Hey, just a suggestion for future builds but you could of totally gotten that damaged piece of plywood at 6:45 discounted at like 70-90% off, they usually end up in the scrap bin with purple spray paint on it, probably just have to talk to an associate in Lumber or ask the cashier when you ring up. I used to work at Homedepot years ago! Figured every cent counts.
My kids went on the Outward Bound program way back when, I wanted them to learn survival skills and I must tell you that it was the most valuable outlay financially that I ever made. My kids are now 49 and 51 and as survival skills teach how to survive in any environment including work family and so much more I am so glad that they got the concept of survival. My daughter has been a firefighter for 23 years, my son is a "mad men" type advertising person and successfully so. I like what you do, and I hope you keep going. I see you having a good time and that will be inspiring to young people who spend way too much time on the internet and perhaps not enough time in the hands on world. Let it be guys, keep being yourselves and continue to mentor. You will reach some, hard to imagine how many but you will make a difference. Love.
Love the content lately, sure helping inspire me to get our content train rolling!
Please let this be a part 1 & let Davey be there for the next installment. One of my favorites of yours so far.
Ayo and Norm absolutely smashing the youtube scene right now, always a good day when you all up load 😂
I'm glad you finally made one with the barrels. When my ex and I lived in GTMO, we had a barrel boat made from the 55 gal metal drums soldered together. We had metal railings, a covered roof, and a little space on the side with a door for the toilet seat on a box. Felt crazy being able to see the water below, under the seat. We'd take the kids fishing on the ocean on weekends, and many times he'd go fishing and diving with buddies and bring home tons of 🐟 and 🦞 . Fun times. One thing you could do is fill the barrels with that spray foam stuff and you'll never sink.😊
Dude. This one is epic, can't wait to see it in action! I'd like to see the price tag you can get on it. Shame it's bit a permanent vessel, you guys did an awesome job
I just go ahead and hit the like button as soon as I start the video. I already know it's going to be good. 😀
Seriously need to get Davy a Captains hat,and have him set up on the bow as you putt across the lakes and rivers,waving like the 'King Of The World'! (Maybe spray paint a lawnchair gold?)
Yeah this need to to have more episodes, I’d love to see the progression of this build
Please keep building this raft. You have to name it. Since you already have the itty bitty. This needs to be something like large marge. Love the videos. Especially Davey Gravey!!
as long as I don't have to wait for 3 weeks I'm happy this was fantastic
THIS VIDEO WAS SO MUCH FUN AND HEARTFELT, IT REMINDED ME OF THE LOST BOYS, A TRUE SIGN OF FRIENDSHIP WITH ALL OF YOU. YOU SHOULD FEEL HUMBLE AND HAPPY YOU HAVE SUCH A GOOD GROUP OF MEN AROUND YOU. GOOD WORK BROTHER ❤
24 hour camping trip on this thing would be awesome catch and cook catfish or bluegill
Got to make another video, AYO. I feel we need another day with the boat moving and the lights on and diving off the top roof. maybe some fishing if the park will allow it. Great content. Can't wait till the next AYO fishing event.
LaGrange Home Depot. I grew up in Lanett. Spent a lot of time in LaGrange. The girls were VERY friendly there. I watched the dam being built and caught many many bass from the shorelines as the lake filled. I love the show, guys!
kinda appreciate that i dont have to see lojo in these videos anymore, he was a grumpy pos XD
I love your fun loving attitude.
Wish yall could post more but I know yall have life's with your families. Yall have helped me with my anxiety . Thank you guys
I believe the instant one of you wakes up in the morning and says, "I have an idea!".....It's just pure chaos and nothing else. Lol
When I saw Smalls I knew it would be a good video! 🤷🏼♂️🤙🎣
Definitely need to have a part 2 and 3 and on! Can't wait to see this monster trolling around!💜💜💜💜
This video is a sign, things will start to go right for you AYO! Couldn't happen to a better Tuber!
This was the most insane, awesome video. Cant wait for part two. You should find a way to trailer the boat back to AYO's place, paint it to protect the wood.
I can't remember the last time I watched a 40 minute youtube video and didn't skip forward at least a little. Awesome job!
Probably the sickest video y’all have made together. Now we have to see a 24 hour challenge in this BEHEMOTH!!
The Happy fathers day wishes warmed my heart, to be honest... you fellas are legends!
This. Was. Wonderful. It made my heart feel feelings and stuff. Please do more of this, you don't need the endless budget. Hell, do the exact same video with 200 bucks and it'll be just as good, maybe better. Love you guys.
Hurricane brackets they are little metal pieces for 2x4 ( and a couple of other there's) to be secured together while adding quite significant lateral load to the adjacent board it's being attached to. In Florida I'm sure you're very familiar with these.
Can’t wait to see the motor actually on it and going across the lake. This build was awesome!
Please be a part 2 this is epic. You and norm need your own lake for all your boats.
Who else wants to see like a week long party fishing camping trip on that beauty just the boys having fun
It is good to see that the white water rafting guide from the European Houseboat episode has found more steady employment at Home Depot. This was awesome, AYO. Great idea.
Honestly Andrew...aka badger...aka AYO FISHING....you're videos make me forget about how hard life really is and allows me to remember how easy it is and where we belong!!!! Tight lines!
Holy shizzzzzzzzz Mason, Norm, Smalls in the same vid? Let the building competition begin! Ayo should race the itty bitty or the inflatable against this in a river race.
I remember when this channel had less than 30k subs. But then again, that wasn't very long ago. Well deserved bro. This channel is so freaking watchable. My only beef is....
More Itty bitty. 😁
I would love to see a series where you, Norm, Yak, Trey, Mason and Smalls (or some combo of that crew) fish specifically for Snakeheads to help get that invasive species outta Southern US waters (particularly FL). They fight real good and we desperately need to get them out before they crush the native fish!
You may have stumbled into your new houseboat while the Itty Bitty is being worked on... seal er' up, drop a power supply, hook up a quick cook stove and install the pooper, and you're golden!
Yall have a bunch of fun and it shows....side note @Smalls on Father's day it's your day to do whatever you want! I spend the day fishing away from my family lol
Amazing video as always AYO! Fun watch with a beer 🍺
Really interesting what’s your possibility are together definitely wanna see more of boat.. 24h, catch cook, survival challenge and maybe more builds together, WE NEED MORE AYO UPLOADS
ayo im mad proud of you, you look amazing, like a completely different person
That is one awesome project! This is what teamwork can build. Having so many laugh out loud moments had to type it in full!
Thats coming from the UK also!
I never knew smalls was in printing. I also do printing. Wonder if he does flexo or screen or more like embossing and die cutting.
You may have overlooked something. I built a Barrel Barg two years ago during Covid. Later in the year when the temps start to drop, these barrels will collapse if precautions are not taken. I found that the simplest thing to do is to just simply drill a 1/4 inch hole in the top side of each barrel. This way, the pressure on the inside will equalize with the outside pressure.
Great build, looking forward to more. Y'all really need more studs on the main level to support the weight of the upper level. Can already see the boards bowing around the windows in some shots.
Great job on the video folks! Thanks for making it.
the happy music cutting out when the drone hit the tree..oh boy did that get me. i cracked up laughing
This channel is the epitome of boys will be boys, and i love it
One of the best episodes ever! You guys are awesome working together
I need to see this thing rippin around with that outboard properly attached. You also need to build a ladder to the deck of the 3rd floor so you can jump from there. And of course we need to see fish caught from this thing. And maybe a survival/camping challenge/catch and cook on board. So many possibilities
Miss when u river and creek fished I've been watching for a while I'm Glad that your still dedicated and I wish u the best
You guys are the best because you make videos I can watch for educational purposes, so I can learn how to build stuff better
This video isn’t about building a raft, it’s about friends just having a good time together.
Definitely one of my favorite UA-camrs mainly because of the awkward moments y'all leave in 😂 love y'all
Please get this man to 20k likes. I wanna see um go camping. Great vid Ayo!!
Ayo left himself for dead on the weight bench to eat some Factor. Priorities. 😂😂 This is such a banger guys! What would have made it even better is Gravy Davey calling the raft a girthy girl? 😂
