Great information about the pumps. Infuriating that you can't simply buy a new switch -- you have to replace the whole darned pump. Fascinating to see the innards of the pumps. The BW 380 Realm is now often powered by twin Merc 600's -- or triple V10 400's. Nice boat, but not really meant for serious fishing. Really a comfortable dayboat with possibility to cruise for a few days. I have the smaller sister -- the 350 Realm -- and it runs nicely. BTW I think the first boat you passed is a True North 34. Great looking hull but they are notoriously wet in any sort of choppy sea conditions. Have you ever tried to reglue sea deck that has become loose? I've been told it's nearly impossible to get adhesive to stick to the underside of a sea deck that has old glue on it, but I'm going to try 3M 90 adhesive spray. Seems like I may have to remove the entire area if I can't the existing patch reglued successfully.
Thank you and unfortunately I have not seen any glue or adhesive that will rebond the sea deck. It seems that you have to replace the piece every time.
Great vid thanks. Soo much stuff to break on a boat with that many accessories. And it all will at some point. Mechanics dream!?
Hey Justin - downeast style boat at the beginning is a True North 34 I believe. Besutiful. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for that. 😊
Will always be a fan of manual switches and less tech lol
Merci beaucoup ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ May friend ❤❤❤

Justin, I was waiting for you to check continuity across those switch contacts while depressing the spring on the switch ?
That is a good idea and maybe I can squeeze that in the next video. Thank you 😊
Boat costs are outrageous.. miss the old days before COVID... All boating costs are outrageous...
I agree and it's not just boats. The housing market here is still crazy.

I like your job bro🫡
I am lucky 😊
What harbor are you in?
It was the Ruskin inlet.
