In this video Peter learns the true meaning of BOAT
Break Out Another Thousand
or the classic. a boat is a hole in the ocean you pour money into. XD
looks great tho :)
Two best days of a boat owner’s life..
I guess for Peter the third happiest days are when videos are published.
Only if you are stupid. He could have stuck an automotive turbodiesel in instead and spent less than a grand, had more horsepower, and far less weight. That thing may not even get that boat on the plane, with its pork, and not enough HP at hull speed rpm to get out of the hole.
@@Maungateiteithat's for folks that do stuff like this. Folks familiar with how to marinize it or run it on a closed loop cooling system.
But buying a decent Cummins sure isn't happening for a grand.
@@goosenotmaverick1156 Yeah and look at this motor, probably has more power than the obsolete "chuff chuff chuff chuff" affair that Peter pulled out of the boat.
I've kept my eyes on the market because I've been wanting to Cummins swap a Nissan Patrol. Even automotive Cummins motors are extremely expensive because of the UA-cam hype.
Then for marine use you need to rebuild it for reliability, last thing that fails has to be your engine.
Ocean travel is more perilous than let on, especially to those who haven't informed themselves and with no experience.
Dude canceled his health insurance to get a boat engine 💀
Gotta love America, where you can either have a boat or health insurance.
The weird part is that the original driveline would have run forever for zero dollars. I guess maybe it's worth it for the views? Will a shiny sorta-new crate motor get more views? Mind blowing to me...
@@privateparty4900 iirc it was either efficiency or the fact that its an old Penta motor, so parts availability might be harder to get.
@@abhimaanmayadam5713 plus that old driveshaft was trash, along with all the other issues that needed fixing. That boat wasn't running anywhere lol
@@Sun-ut9gr I was about to ask if the motor was super screwed up but I didn't want to go through the old video. I do remember that the driveshaft was absolutely munted.
Too late for you, but for anyone else doing a job like this, consider using an Aquadrive coupling. It's basically a short piece of shaft with a CV joint on each end; something like a front wheel drive car axle. It allows for a significant difference in the alignment of the engine and prop shaft and offers several benefits. You can mount the engine on very soft mounts to reduce vibration without worry that you will damage the prop shaft stuffing box because of excessive movement. And you can mount the engine more level even if your prop shaft is not perfectly level. But the best advantage is that you can mount a thrust bearing on an intermediate bulkhead so that the prop thrust loads are taken by a dedicated thrust bearing and that eliminates the driving thrust being transferred into your expensive transmission, saving wear and tear. They're not overly expensive either.
That second to last sentence brought be back to drivers ed when the teacher told us to always engage the parking break before you pull your foot off the breaks so the shifting weight of the car doesn't rest on your transaxle pin and wear it out over time. Bigger problem on older automatics apparently.
The downside to all that is that you are adding more points of failure which is not good on a single engined boat.
@@popuptoaster Boats are points of failure. One must accept that as a reality of maritime life.
Yea what the guy said 😂 hes right ya know
@@SetitesTechAdventures well... less PoF's (Points of Failure) is always a benefit 'cuz , like u said , boats are a giant point of failure but the thing is ; the hull is a SECONDARY PoF , MOST OF THE TİME , meaning u need smth bad to happen , for the hull to fail! of course the hull itself might fail on its own but its a very low chance , therefore , having less PRİMARY PoF's (meaning these PoF's are more likely to go off on their own) is a prime benefit
Also im not saying your wrong , its just "constructive critisizim" (i actualy dont have a word to explain what this comment is as its an explanation/critisizim for someones logic so ... uhh ... idk i guess)
I know this is a huge project but I'm all about it. You're doing such a good job and making that boat look so salty. I can't wait until it's finished.
I wouldn't mind having longer videos. Really enjoying the project. :)
I would be totally okay with longer videos as well.
Same
It's a shame that longer, more detailed videos are going the way of the newspaper. People want instant gratification, not the opportunity to learn. Hence shorts and tiktok. Nothing against that in moderation, sometimes it's fun, but it should be balanced. I wish there was more detail, longer videos.
My great grandfather who was a mech engineer did something very similar to the project you’ve undertaken (not a lobster boat, but a fishing boat with similar beam and draft, wanna say about 38 ft LOA). Finishing it was an absolute money pit, and so was maintaining it. Instead of getting a fancy car and a big house, he put his cash into the boat. I’m sure to some it was a questionable life decision, but even in the decade after he passed, everyone in the family still reminisces about the time they spent on it and the countless memories they made. TLDR, it might be a pain in the ass and wallet, but it’ll bring value in other ways.
Happy you could update us on the project, keep it up Peter!
That's one reason I don't mind my $5k covered slip lease payment and my $40k Searay Sundacer 310. It's a lot of money to operate and maintain, but the memories are priceless.
16:05 i would recommend you get some heat shield's on the exposed exhaust pipe & a exhaust flapper for the end of the pipe so when it isn't running it won't hydrolock since it's not going to be run every day of the year
I work for a company that makes removable insulation blankets for exactly that purpose (among others). They also keep you from burning yourself.
I love seeing Sam help out, always one of my favorites to see in your videos.
I always enjoy being able to help out 👍
very nice setup. it is odd to be that primitive to be that precise. I worked on a lobster boat. novy fat beam. The shaft wobbled like a jump rope, the engine from a japanese tractor trailer..straight pipe to the sky... over 100db right next to us. Keep on truckin.
BOAT stands for: Bust Out Another Thousand. Boats are not cheap to fix and maintain.
Hi, 8 dont know if you realise but you have aligned the engine to the prop shaft but you will need to do it again after the boat goes in the water as the hull shape will change between propped up on its keel on land and floating in the water , just a heads up, great job so far.
Very true for most wooden boats we work on. The glass or metal ones not as much but we still check after it splashes back in.
@@usanaluoma ... did you just confirm that glass boats exist?
@@akidafloof fiberglass i assume but yee, glass boat indeed
Yup, and let's see him do that with a laser shining out of the back..
This is, by far, my favorite build series on youtube. So fun seeing the progress. Well done!
Dude, from toy planes, to toy boats, to this very cool real boat. You've come a ways! Proud of you! 👍👍🤠
When replacing old wood. Paint new wood before installing, then paint again and seal up cracks and seams after the install.
This way, if the old wood you left behind has any trace of rot, the new wood will be unaffected.
Also, protects the wood from moisture you can't see.
Dude you changed this boat completely in the absolute best way! it looks soo freaking good!! i can't wait to see it in the water, also that motor is badass! and sick work with the alignment, i bet your motor is a lot more in line than most boats that'll be in the water
be careful with your diesel heater exhaust you might want to find a more horizontal mounting method those mufflers have a drip hole for condensation on the bottom of them just to let you know! Loving the boat
oh are you thinking he might flood the engine if it rains? i suppose if it comes straight from the turbo.
Great job on that precision fit! Maybe it is beyond the normal spec, but it can't hurt!
And then the whole hull flexes when it goes in the water.
I think you really should have a marine exhaust, they're so much better for fumes noise heat and vibration, also the water cooling down the exhaust also cools down the exhaust gas, which acts like a vacuum effect shrinking of the gas helps boost and fuel efficiency, air exhausts are so intrusive and always interrupt conversations lol, when you're trying to have a quiet cruise, what an excellent job, my brother is a boat builder Annapolis from New Zealand, and he also loves overkill, good on you and thanks for sharing your very professional experience.
I spent a couple of years dreaming of buying and fixing up a lobster boat. Congratulations! You’ve permanently cured me of my obsession!!!
That's awesome! Good work! The only thing I could recommend is a air cutoff for the motor intake! Can prevent a runaway from destroying the motor. $200 can save you a $20,000 repair!
And possibly exhaust blocker. Double is better. Als the air cutoff needs to be extremely solid to resist runaways
Four cycle engine. Run away very unlikely.
i'm sure someone has noted it - but you should probably change out the seawater impeller- running it dry can really hurt it.
Was about to say the same thing, running the engine dry kills the impeller, no more than one minute run and it's done, worse if yo rev it. Make sure when you change it to look it for rubber pieces in the water channels, that cloggs the pipelines. The changing is easy, something like this: ua-cam.com/users/shortsJ4SX0MvVu_Y?si=5O6P1hODPVeYYvnQ
He says he disconnected the water pump for the testing
This is easily my favorite project out of your channel so far. Really looking forward to seeing it again in a few months.
I love this new boat series!
The re use of the laser bore sight 👌
That alignment of the motor. -chef's kiss-
Im a marine mechanic and I restore classic race boats, I would like to say I appreciate you doing boat work the right way, most of the time I see UA-camrs do things half assed and it’s nice to see quality work.
What do ya think of those LS based gas engines in that Italian boat? Somehow I am not surprised they continued to run the diesel props with the new gas engines or that they failed to winterize the boat...
@Melanie16040 I've posted on that channel a few times. As a marine mechanic it was painful watching those beautiful engines be treated like that by an idiot. But I was also not surprised when I realized he was involved with cars. I have to tell people not to lug their engines daily.
@@patricktennant1585 Did you hear it sunk because they didn't winterize it? Too busy worrying about car engine blocks cracking and going around to drain water from them... Said they thought because the water the boat was in wasn't frozen, they didn't need to do anything to the boat.
The cooling system on these is pretty cool. You've got coolant that cools the "jacket" in the engine (engine block and other heat sensitive engine stuff) the raw water pump sucks seawater through a strainer (to protect the pump and jacket water system from sea junk/trash) and goes through a liquid to liquid heat exchanger that keeps the coolant and raw water seperate. The raw also cools your intake air. The boats I worked with ran two of these engines rated at 425hp and I spent 5 years working with them 😅
The coolant inside the engine is called jacket water, and it heat exchanges with the raw water(sea water)
Yea its raw because its less efficient with cooked water. Temperature differentials blah blah
@@ac.creations ok smartass
@@ac.creations The reason why a heat exchanger is used is that the sea water is contaminated with things that you don't want circling around in your engine. You have temperature controlled coolant (lower freezing and higher boiling point than plain water) which has many additives to prevent damage to the engine and cooling system.
@@esqueue @esqueue yes I know that a heat exchanger is I made a joke about raw seawater
@@ac.creationsWhat's sad is that those are the nonsensical jokes that I make too. I laughed after reading your response but that's a bit too late. LOL
I work at a smaller fab shop and just wanted to say that was a really good “first” weld on a ladder out of position like that…props to you
Yay return of the best series
Hey man great progress so far. Just be careful running the engine out of the water if you have the sea water pump fitted, you can do it with a hose connected otherwise the impeller will get trashed, they are rubber and need the water for lubrication. When you do get round to putting her in the water keep an impeller in a bag near the engine with some tools, sometimes the pump will suck up things like trash bags or the strainer will get blocked with silt causing the impeller to lose water and fail, the first you will probably know is when your engine overheats and then cuts out. It’s useful to be able to change one quickly to keep you out of brown town. Fair sailing
13:26 He says the water pump was disconnected during the testing
Its been long awaited! Im glad its working
Questionable life decisions that involve spending tens of thousands of dollars when you don’t have health insurance means you’re officially a boat captain. Congrats! The boat looks great!
You guys are smart and a great source of inspiration to so many.
sam is such a good friend! He's always there
Nothing i enjoy more, Terrible purchases by someone else and i am here to see it all through
FYI template-building was used before dimensions were invented :D So "whoever came up with the card template idea" is probably a literal fossil by now LOL!
Of course it's old school but many UA-camrs today would promote a high tech solution.
Cant wait for Bad Decisions Part 4!

Really enjoying the boat project videos, this is tied with Colin Furze's tunnel as my favourite big ongoing youtube project. You're doing such a great job on the boat you won't be able to call it krusty soon. Obviously the videos a lot of work (as well as expensive) and you can't make many but the few you have put out are brilliant :)
Check out the itty bitty series on ayofishing. Very similar work but more house boat focused.
Boat building gets really expensive when you poorly prep fiberglass patches and they start to leak and sink your boat.
"Screw anyone who wants regular vids and project updates!!!"
~Peter Sripol
"And I don't have health insurance."
There's your biggest bad decision. Quit spending money on boats and protect yourself. We want you alive!
This boat is probably less expensive than health insurance at this point. Then at least he gets something of value for his money.
@@brianv5090 Not so much.
@@EatsLikeADuck I don't know his life situation but it's common for sole proprietors to pay in excess of $30k per year to insure their family, and that's with extremely high deductibles that make it entirely useless. These people often self-insure and get a catastrophic event policy instead which is nearly free in comparison.
Early??
13:44 nice now you can change a new impeller
I was just getting mad about all the hacky projects floating around youtube and you guys save the day. Great job Dad & Sam.
I love boats and i have always been fascinated with doing rebuilds/ remodels of older boats and you went above and beyond! Congratulations on such a wonderful boat!!
I cant wait to see you convert this boat to hydrofoils
Such a transformation since she first docked in our back yard!
You know, some plopped a bulldozer engine on a historic yacht (and a fairly large boat too). It worked.
Best dad moment of the century.
Dude you need a flex plate and wax packing in the propshaft if you hit something with your prop you don't destroy your engen or direct drive system. As someone who grew up on a boat and an electrical engineer you can save a lot of headaches make sure you get a coast gard 2 year inspection before you put it in the watter or you will definitely be boarded without the sticker and if they see anything your screwed 😉 don't forget to add a engen vent system and fire system ect. 😊
There’s an old saying about a boat: “It’s a hole in the water that you throw your money into”.😎👍
My dad always said "they say a boat is just a hole I'm the water to throw money into"
Dry stack exhaust and conventional truck muffler, interesting choice. Baffled wet exhaust would be my choice.
Wow, beautiful quality work, Peter. I have done many home projects like adapting a Kubota garden tractor diesel to power my Geo Metro and I converted my British 21 foot fishing boat from a small Perkins inboard to a Mercruiser stern drive powered by a GM 6.5 turbo diesel. All of it works but my one-off projects were always hurried and on a budget, almost never with finishing touches. I wish I had your attention to detail...and your budget! You need more pats on the back for a job well done.
Peter, I am super proud of you for just getting your hands dirty. This is how we learn.
What a beautiful sounding engine!!! You should be so proud bro, keep up the hard work.
What you’re doing is so awesome. Not an easy job at all. I’m in the process of changing out my engine mounts right now!!
This is so great, watching your boat come together. Amazing work.
Boat is an acronym, Break Out Another Thousand
Boats are money holes, whatever you think cost will for the hull to hit water, triple it! 😁
From someone who has built and restored boats and been around boats for 50years, well Peter you put the very best of marine gear in that boat and all that stuff does cost 'the bomb'. Cummins is one of the best. A ZF transmission is also one of the best. The closed loop cooling system is a must. The whole boat has only the best products and equipment. That boat will be worth real money when finished and will last a lifetime. Very well done. I'm sure by now Peter understands the old expression that "a boat is a hole in the water into which you pour money". Usually your life savings!
If you haven't already, please employ Sam fulltime! He is such a nice presence for the show, I could watch Sam solve problems and hang around all day!
The new pilot house looks amazing
I would have added sealant between the motor mount plates and the stringers
Absolutely love this project, thanks for sharing Peter:)
I have been following this project since it was started and this channel for even longer I am so stoked to see the boat get in the water and to see what amazing things he is going to get up to with it.
Honestly, I love this project and can never wait for the updates, thanks for the content man keep it up!
Yay! Boat update!! Always stoked to see one of your boat videos in my YT notifications
I’m so happy to see this build progress. My utility ship is almost done, eventually I’ll catch up to a full size. Ohio winters still suck.
That's a totally new level of building.
Bravo!!
I love the sound of a cummins cranking up
My favorite project on UA-cam! I can't wait to see what you do with it when she's finished. Would love longer videos of the project too!
Gotta do engine alignment with the boat in the water. When you splash the boat, load will change on the hull surfaces and the hull will flex. Engine alignment will change as the prop shaft will move with the hull flexing around it. Alignment is done in 100/ths, boat will flex that much. Other than that, congratulations on the New engine. Love the cummins.
Sripol people, Is it just me or do they inspire and get you excited to tinker and DIY too?
Also, the cardboard trick is great for translating a shape accurately without measuring, it's also super handy for mirroring shapes by just flipping the cardboard over in whatever direction necessary. Great for any symmetrical project that isn't tiny.
Thanks for saving the content, Sam!
You did some fine CAD (Cardboard Aided Design) work on this build!!
Buying a boat is NEVER a bad descision!
The Viking has spoken!
This is the episode I'm really looking forward to
Actually skilled human, props to you and your team
I love that 😂. I was in the Navy on the USS AMERICA CVA-66, I worked on our utility boats, we had 50' and 45' boats plus we had emergency whale boats. That's called a heat exchanger, it seperates the coolant in the engine from the sea water. Be careful running that without sea water. We had a rubber impeller, but had inboard exhaust. Personally I like the inboard exhaust. It was quite.
'radiation fluid' is just coolant while the sea water used to cool the coolant is called raw water
the boat is coming along very nicely. I love it!
I'm amazed just how much you manage to do every episode! Well done, man.
I have to agree you made the boat aesthetically look much better and I'm sure that down the road you'll appreciate many of the changes that you made and though you may have thought you took off more than you can chew seems like you're finally getting through it and ready to swallow
Whoa finally u upload
SEABOARD MARINE! I grew up in keyport, stevie is a great family friend and like an uncle to me
Nice work dude
Looking great keep up with the progress.
My wife and I bought a old destroyed master raft and brought it back to life. You will be so happy once it’s done !!!!
Congrats and it's looking good!
Peter I’ve never been more excited to see what’s coming next from your channel!!
Peter, each video I am constantly in awe of what an amazing job you have done. Like I don't how you built my dream boat without even knowing me. The pilothouse is so cool!! Can't wait to see it on the seas!
The new pilothouse looks wonderful, exactly along my line ❤❤❤
Makes the boat look way more serious and grown up - if you now wrote NOAA on the bow, hardly anyone would doubt it.
The cardboard trick is often used for countertops, sometimes used with long wood furring strips too.
everyone needs a sam
The two greatest days of owning a boat!
The day you buy it and the day you sell it.
this guy is the only youtuber from my childhood that i still watch i just love the shit he does
also i feel like boats are the most pain in the ass vehicles to work on other than an aircraft
I always find excitement whenever you post new videos especially on this boat
Love the new forward rake of the cabin. 👍👍👍👍👍
