Awesome young lady. Your excitement and determination is in inspiring. Your relationship with your father is inspiring! I am a life long bass fisherman 44 yr old man. Emphasize old man! Please don't let this beautiful story have a terrible ending. I wear my life jacket religiously if boat is going to be on plain. Look up the statistics on boater fatalities and I think it will shock you. Its always the life jacket wasn't worn. I know people should mind their own business, but your story is so special. For your families sake please wear a life jacket when boat is on plane. To many variables on the water to take a chance. If you lose sterring cable, hit something submerged, lose your prop or a blade, all of these could cause a hard hook to the right or left. In which case the g forces will continue taking you straight into the water while boat hooks off. Alot of people get on here and just say wear your like jacket but don't explain why. Or maybe they don't know why. I am a prideful strong man, and excellent swimmer. You will not catch me on plane without my life jacket on. Good luck and enjoy the sport safely.
Samantha, you have no idea what an amazing dad you have. Well maybe somewhat. The wife and I have an 8 year old grandson that loves to fish and that makes feel me amazing. Please enjoy every minute with your dad on the boat and learn everything you can cuz one day he won’t be there to show you. This video is in my top 3 favorites on UA-cam cuz of the amazing job that your dad has done. Please keep learning and can’t wait for the next video.
I have a 99 ranger similar in style. love it, but one suggestion i would get some kind of support for the trolling motor when traveling down the lake so it doesn't bounce around so much. Awesome job!!
I would recommend a hot foot pedal they super nice I get to keep both hands on the wheel. That and a leash so if you it a stump your motor won’t fly back
Man I thought you'd get more out of a 120. My little 40 yo skeeter gets 43 on gps with a 70 hp Evinrude triple. But sweet job on your first fish scoot!
I have the same boat and I am doing the same restoration. Can you give us a list of parts? the rubber trim you uses, how you bring the gel coat back? carpet? were any of the latches broken? electronics? wish you would of done a more of a step by step. You seem to be the only one on youtube with a r70s series ranger restoration.
