can't wait til next spring when I start mine on a 14x4 ft v bottom boat, only problem I'll probably have is the framing for the deck and cutting of the hatches. since I'm a mechanic and not a carpenter lol
Haha don't let it discourage you man, its not as difficult as it may look. I am by no means a carpenter either, and i also have mechanical background. You know how to use tools so use it to your advantage!
thanks bud for the encouragement lol just don't want mess anything up on cuts on my decided thickness of 3/4 ply wood for decks, and also want to put in a livewell as well like using the pvc pipe like u have. going to be a headache I just know it lol. I'll keep you updated on how that goes this coming spring you should get a Facebook so I can send you pictures after I deck my boat. 🙂
T.B.N is amazing. you guys are so inspiring. keep it up. I plan to convert a John boat with my son's

BTW love the detailed videos you put out, gives me great ideas overall
after 4 years, do you still recommend these brand lifts or have you moved to other brand lifts?
Great question Paul. I don't. We now use marine grade struts. The struts themselves were good, however all of the mounts rusted out
@@fireantfishing sea-dog? or? any link?
You are incredible - awesome
When you finish this boat are you gonna do a video on total cost and labor hours?
I might possibly try to add things up money wise. Labor hours will be impossible. Ive been working on this for over a year now
Those ball ends rusting yet?
another great video
Thanks man!
Dude just turn the black thing over and works great with 1/2 wood
