I’ve got one of these. Had it in 1982. Loved it. But I put it on the sea. It sank coming back to shore. Still in my loft broken, and pretty rough looking. It's a Gama Perkins Power Cruiser. Made in Germany. My controller isn’t like that though. It’s just a normal looking black stick version. Great vlog.👍
From forgotten relic to floating masterpiece! 🚤✨ This restoration isn’t just about the boat-it’s about bringing memories back to life. Hats off to the dedication! 👏⚙
I would have given it a wash,,,, put it on the toy shelf,,, and go fly my drone,,,, one day some one might find it,,, give it a clean,,, put it on the toy shelf and go fly around mars....😊
Nice refurbishing project. It takes a few minutes to get the hang of operating any RC aircraft and/or cars and boats. But once you master it, it becomes totally FUN! Thumbs Up!
Wonderful restoration an modernisation of the electric/electronic. That boat looks awesome now. But there is something missing ... where are the pretty girls sunbathing on deck? And the boat needs a captain!
I can't for the life of me figure out why you would not put modern electronics in this. I kind of get how you dirtied it up to make it look worse off than it was, lack of rust or any corrosion gave that away. But why you would not put in electronics with an inexpensive waterproof receiver and esc. plus a steering servo so you would have proportional steering and speed? I just don't get it. Also that was the wrong prop for this as can be seen by the massive amount of cavitation any time you gave it any speed. and you defiantly need a little ballast at the lowest point in the hull, did you even float test this before tossing it into the water? anyway it was an ok cosmetic restoration, but the operational part was a fail.
That RC Boat looks good. Sir. James Moses Jr.
Noisy little thing once it gets going, huh??? Great work tho it looked like a lot of fun! 👍👍

Splash some mud on it and make it look knackered.😂
I was hoping to see you go with a brushless system! 💯

Only thing this channel needs are closed captions a la Primitive Technology to explain the whats and whys of the things on screen.
Wonderful restoration
I really like your videos
nice work. might need some ballast the way its listing battery is likely too light (compared to what it had)
Very good job 👍👍👍
Great job on the RC boat, first time watching the video and it was a good time seeing it good to go with this one.
Hello mister beautiful restoration beautifully restored good job well done

I would have given it a wash,,,, put it on the toy shelf,,, and go fly my drone,,,, one day some one might find it,,, give it a clean,,, put it on the toy shelf and go fly around mars....😊
You found the S.S. MINNOW .....now sit back and hear a tale of a faithful ship 😊

Totally awesome lv it
PERFECT 👌👌
looks hard to control with that controller, the boat looks pretty tippy as well, can see why it sunk to begin with, be careful with it! looks great
Great job, although we could do with the background noise removed.
What is your name James Moses Jr.
Ele é rápido na ferramenta 🛠️🔩😅
I have that sa 1:21 1:23 me boat still in the box 😅😅with no controler
good job bro, keep going
A brass prop.would look better ( In my humble opinion)
An excellent restoration.
What do you do with the items when you’ve fully restored it? Keep them or sell them? Also, where do you find these items?
Não arrumou a placa pq??
Deveria ter restaurado e arrumado a placa. Serviço foi feito pela metade 👎🏻👎🏻
Ohh man, klasse Arbeit. Toll gemacht. 🤘🤠👊
Wonderful restoration an modernisation of the electric/electronic. That boat looks awesome now. But there is something missing ... where are the pretty girls sunbathing on deck? And the boat needs a captain!

Is your pfp a Bnsf es44ac?
Does plastic rust? Also got to keep it cheap so you make more money
He replaced the electronic board.
This is a pre built toy, not a model. The dry cell battery box gave the game away. Probably little Johnny got it for Christmas?
You are right thats some of that fake videos.
its a toy. I thought it was about the real thing.
Hello
Very nice work but why all the time spent on bad editing and boring sound rather than some explanation of processes and products used?
!!!! 🤣🤣🫵
0 fun to ride it 😅
How do you know where the wires go back on?
!!!!! 🤣🫵
Fake..this isn't old it's junk off Amazon..
