- In this video I remove the lower engine mounts from an outboard that was on a boat that had a hard grounding.

"I think the socket to get these off is going to look awfully like an angle grinder."
Love that kind of humor!
Anyway, thanks for posting this video. I always get something from your channel! 👍👍👍
Thanks for watching!
Great to hear rob grading oysters in the background after all the problems the farmers have had in the Hawkesbury 👍🏻
For sure, first harvest since getting back in the game. I took a bit of footage of the machine in action, I'd really like to make a video of the whole process one day.
That would be great 👌🏼rob sure is a legend in the industry.
Walking around Brooklyn recently shows a plethora of project boats parked everywhere...nice walk too
Every boat is a project.
Boat= break out another thousand.
@@michaelmcclure8673 I'm one of those that made my boat perfect so I can sell it to the next custodian at a third of what it owed me.
That gray boat out on the water did look pretty nice.
I'm really loving the outboard stuff
Thanks mate, glad you are enjoying it.
Same
One can only assume all the peanut-gallery comments are from our USA viewers... If you're not local to where Stu is, you cannot possibly offer any insight into what this thing is worth! But by all means, keep 'em coming because the entertainment is priceless ;)
(Having bought and sold endless project boats, $4k is possible - but a bit more than I'd be comfortable with, especially without a trailer... and yes, I'm local enough to leave an educated opinion!)
Yes, definitely a negotiable price from what I understand. It's true what you say about local boats though. A much smaller runabout with a 50HP engine can go for over $10,000 so if somebody had the right skills they could end up with a nice boat at the end of it.
I agree, markets are a lot different around the world. Here (FIN EU) that wreck (but repairable) could be worth from 5-10k€. People like to fix very old boats even just for fun and this one is not even a bad case. Fiberglass and aluminium hulls are fixable, ABS-plastic not so easily.
Your expression 10.07, I have been there many times, boats, cars, general machinery all the same. Well done sir.
Great video Stu, I really appreciate the commentary you add as I find myself asking questions to which you answer. Your right too, Renko has beautiful lines and is a smart looking lady, I’d love to see you get a bigger one and do it all again……I think you love that little lady too much though as you always look so content at the wheel. Thanks for the video
Thanks Gordon, glad you enjoyed the vid. :)
another dangar good video!
Morning from Siesta Key Florida
Morning!
Muy bueno 👌 gracias, siempre miro tus videos me gusta mucho la mecánica que usted hace , y las gallinas con los loritos me gustan
Hi Stu, good video on doing what you could even though the owner can't afford to fix it. If he finds someone who can maybe they will have you guy do the restore? Either way nice to see you back working on outboards. Those VST tanks are a debris collector from what I have seen
Thanks Tim. Doing the repairs for someone else is a possibility.
Very informative!!
Glad you think so!
Great stuff .Kind regards Alex
Thanks Alex!
Loved watching thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Great hair Stu👍
Thanks mate!
@@DangarMarine 👍
One roll of Flex-Seal Tape should handle the leaks in the hull.
I would have said half a roll but sometimes its better to be safe than sorry.
@@DangarMarine I am waiting for the Nulon Corporation to come out with their own version of a waterproof marine grade sealing tape. Of course it should be called
" Stop Leaking Ya Bastard! "
good work. keep safe
Thanks, you too!
We're noticing a bit more grey in the mane since you started working more closely with Adrian and Christine. Are you all drinking enough beer?
Not even close to enough. ;)
Hahahaha, I was gonna blame it on UA-cam! It has a way of generating white hairs all on its own. For the record Stu my dad often watches your videos with me when I'm up as his place, and he thinks Adrian's a hoot. I think he's your favorite sidekick
Thanks for the peace in my soul watching this, love it. Sincerely, really hope this is working out for everyone Stu. Bloody magic videos, Godbless, thankyou.
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed. :)
Asking a bit much for that Crain weren’t you,lifting that huge outboard 🤪
It was taking a bit of a risk but we like to push the limits. ;)
@@DangarMarine haha 😂
Must be a sign Stu. The green machine just won an elimination final. She had some hard groundings 😂😂🍺
One or two... ;)
I must've missed something along the way. What ever happened to the green machine?
Even though I'm in WA if I had a detroit diesel in my boat, Id want Adrian working on it!
That was close - didn’t really fancy Daisy v. the Hissing Sid!
Ah, it wouldn't hand around long if Daisy approached it.
angle grinder socket... haha love it!
Corroded engine mounts can cause a lot of problems. On my 120 Johnson they made it impossible to adjust the shift linkage.
Interesting, I'll have to remember that.
Hey there Stew. Great vid. When I found the lower engine mount bolts were corroded on my 200 Opti, I replaced them with 316 stainless. Still trying to figure out what Mercury were thinking when they used plain old steel bolts for that job.
I feel the same way about the steering yoke. I figure it is either cost or some of the characteristics of stainless under certain stresses.
I've rebuilt my share of mid 60's to mid 70's merc's and u just cant kill em. They'll take everything u can throw at em and more! They have have the best exhaust sound in my opinion. Love the look of em too. Feel for the fella who ran aground, thats a real drag. Hope he's able to at least get a decent used boat if he can sell it. What did adrian say about the oil leak? where it was comin from? Was hard to tell. Thanks again for sharin stu. Have a good weekend.
They do seem like pretty tough motors. The oil leak was a plug that came out just above the oil pan. Looks like there is a hole on both sides so the dipstick can be installed somewhere reachable and the other hole plugged up.
@@DangarMarine Ah! Ok, that makes sense. I would never have anything but a merc.
Stu, the bottom cowl will come off with three or so bolts in from the sides, (one under a plastic plug) making it easier to get to the underside of the motor. Give that a try for the steering linkages.
Cool, I'll take a look next time I am out there. Sounds like he's given up on the boat though.
@@DangarMarine is that boat still sitting around?
Sikaflex !! 😎😎
Enjoy watching your vlogs from the UK although youtube put Cummins adverts on them, I don't have a problem with that but you might 😀
LOL. Glad you are enjoying the vids. ;)
Looks like one of the trim rams was stuck in aswell
Common you guys, saving a Mercury, you’re saving a black anchor!
LOL
Was that throttle linkage coming off the cause of the accident? The the pivot arm you played with didn't look to have a redundancy shutoff spring.
Yes, is what the throttle that popped off which is weird.
4k is a reasonable starting point here in Australia.
Negotiable of course! ;)
We're you able to confirm the oil seal for the selector was still intact? Also worth dropping the gear oil in case there are problems unrelated to the collision.
Yes, I would definitely be giving the gearbox a full service before reinstalling it.
I'd be concerned about that lower unit's propeller shaft and gears (especially with that SS Prop and all the dings and dents in the housing).
Yes, I would certainly be doing some thorough tests on it before re-installing.
Thanks Stu👍👀👉Shoe🇺🇸
Welcome!
More chickens please
You and Adrian could be the new "Fry and Laurie."
Ah, to have had their success!
Heya stu, my dad was asking if you ever found out what plans Renko was based on. He REALLY likes that boat, and we've both been on boats our whole lives
Unfortunately not but I’m thinking I might post some photos on the trawler pages on Facebook and see what I can find out.
@@DangarMarine Definitely unique, it reminds me of a real-life steel "Tubby The Tugboat", an old children's novel from the 60's (or Tuggy??.. Think I'm misremembering the name) I remember us years ago seeing Renko the first time going "well that's a cute boat!" Tuggy/Tubby immediately came to mind. Would be funny if that's actually what it was based on. Synopsis was "Over the years, Tubby the Tugboat has gotten used to spending his days forgotten in Backwater Bay. But that's changing. One way or another, Tubby is about to become useful once again-and that's why he and his friends are worried. Is Tubby on his way to the scrap yard? Or is there still a place in the world for an undersized tugboat like Tubby?"
Should Red Dwarf 2 be called RD2D or will George Lucas object?
Red Dwarf 2 Dangar
LOL. Love your work!
😊👍
Nice work stu, don't just hate it when a rock rubs ya the wrong way. 😉
It's never a good day...
Hi, Does Stu do small outboard runabout servicing for customers. Thank You
And a few more, if you do digital photograph the tear down and find out cost delay like we did at ending, emailing the data is too easy, and your mate Was right you’re talking to yourself going crazy dude
Stu, did the owner ask you to repair the engine for him, or give it to you to fix?
Asked me to take a look, still his boat.
Hi Stu, the other day I thought I saw a link to a tour of Mamoot but cannot find it now, any ideas.
Hey mate, I posted that on Patreon.
did Renko get a white paint job?
No, still grey.
Darn sad to hear he can’t afford to fix it hope he finds a cheap boat to get around. Might be able to sell that SS prop though
What i would do if i had your boat i would get the part of the side you cut off and put it back like a castle drawbridge.good for reaching down and when pulled up used to stop anyone falling off.
Hello I have a a 70 hp evinroude. I rebuild the carbs . But I really had to crank down on the seats to get them in . Now I an not getting fuel in the bowls I can force fuel in carbs with Squeeze bottle . I will fire . Any thoughts?
Sounds like the needle is now sticking in the seats. Could be the float getting trapped in the bowl or the seat is now deformed from being cranked.
You didn't happen to replace the fuel pump or fuel hoses on it? I've seen hoses crossed on a fuel pump and that stops any hydrocarbon goodness reaching the carb's.
@@1Longranger before when it was running. Ok .
Adrian just doesn't look right with a full head of hair...the mohawk definitely suited him better :)
Don't worry, it's back now.
Hi Stu. I have a 12v winch motor for a crane like the one you have on Renko. Do you want it?
He mate, I really appreciate the offer but I've been quite happy with the hand winch since I swapped to that. Keeps things nice and simple.
Once you got rid of the steering, it seemed to turn quite easily…
Yes, it's weird. The steering also turned after disconnected so something funny was going on.
@@DangarMarine Maybe check the steering-ram for straightness.. Might have been bent and caused the steering to jam. In that case the oil seals might have to be changed as well....
Well I guess it´s not you problem any more 🙂
1:10, I thought we would see more damage for a second.
Time for a quick hair cut there my friend 😁
Why?
Cause at this rate Stu will have to change the name of Renko to the ark, your starting to look like Noah hahaha Stu’s Ark!! 🤣🤣
Go the long hair!
Go the mullet....
Like a shared pen
Nothing like being on the 🧰
Ineed. First nice warm day we had had in a while too!
Did you say 4 grand for the boat?? I don't want it but just interested in the prices in your area .
This boat fixed up would sell for over $20,000.
@@DangarMarine Wow !!! That is crazy !!! That boat here would more than likely be looked over or trashed. Wow !!
Despite the height issue, i still had to laugh at using a franna to pull the power head
Yes, it was the height that made us need to go with the overkill option.
Hi Stu??
Maybe you could help me?
I am working on an old 65 hp Johnson from 1973!! 2 stroke it will not start-when it is cold!!
So I have done this: Set the timing-cleaned all the carburators-and a new fuel pump-a new Electric choke-but nothing work`s taking a compression test, ho shows 105-on all cyl. Sat new ignition testing lamp`s on and it is firingon all 3 cyl.......But when I turn the key on it says nothing?????? Sat a new battery in it- discovered the owner had putting a new wire on-from the battery plus pole to the minus pole on the motor?? so maybe this have affected the CDI unit???+ I am getting crazy working on this old shir?? Maybe you can advice me??? I am Living in Denmark......Regards From Mogens....
Same rule of thumb, digital photo everything and bag / Chinese container every part-memory fails us all on rare jobs,a few days later,
Good luck finding oem parts for old 2 stroke mercury’s, it’s like they never existed in Canada
The quote I got was from a local supplier that had them in stock.
Thay make 2 stroke engines....
Long hair suits you
Thanks!
I was surprised that there are snakes on the island but then they can swim. Are you sure it's a green tree snake. It did not look like one to me.
Yes, sure.
You're probably thinking of a Green Tree python Bob, Common Tree Snakes come in pretty much anything from black to greeny yellow depending on locale.
@@andrewlindley4865 Thanks Andrew. Here in Queensland we have green and brown tree snakes which are usually fairly long and thin, that why it did not look familiar.
@@bobbebbington5356 I'm a Queenslander too. Have just come across a few in a past life as a snake catcher
4 grand for a boat that was sunk, has a hole in the hull and a dead engine? If someone buys that let me know. I have a bridge to sell them.
yeah, I would think it would be given away for free because it's nothing but a headache for the owner now, and costing more and more money and aggravation all the time.
@@vicmorrison8128 Exactly at that point it is a free boat. It will cost money to scrap it, There is nothing good about the boat
Or you can just pay close to $25,000 for one already fixed up (www.boatsales.com.au/boats/details/2000-stejcraft-580br-bahama/OAG-AD-20982414/?Cr=8). Price is obviously negotiable so still could be a good chance to get a decent boat for a guy with the right time and skills.
@@DangarMarine Maybe there that has some value but in the rest of the world that is just garbage. You can find a FREE boat in much better shape.
I take that you don't live in Australia.
That dangling fender failed to do its job of protecting the hull or engine from damage ;-)
Just needed one more!
It should be on sale for $1. Right now it is a worthless piece of scrap. It might have the potential to be worth $4000 once it is fixed, but now worth nothing. Renko same thing. It was a floating piece of rust. The owner would have had to pay to have it scrapped. But he sold it for way more than it was worth. Only Leo at Sampson Boat company did the right thing in paying $1 for his boat. He has paid 100s of thousands to fix it up now. Once done maybe worth $1million.
If fixed up properly they go for over $20,000 www.boatsales.com.au/boats/details/2000-stejcraft-580br-bahama/OAG-AD-20982414/?Cr=8
@@DangarMarine Not really, That boat was never sunk or had a hole in the hull. Maybe 10,000 fixed unless you lie about its past
😂🤣😂🤣
need to throw a tarp over that boat, so the rains don't keep it wet for repairs to happen.
Me like big engines mister. Them whisks look like a nightmare. That's an awful lot of money for a few bits, anything to do with boats and you stick a '0' on the end.
I gather ray dosnt run the show there anymore
Rob Moxham has been the owner of the yard since I’ve been going there.
Owner ever clean a boat?? :)
Am I the only one that thinks the owner should call the insurance company and wait for a check?
That amount of damage and still asking $4 k , I don’t think that boat will or should return to the water and the outboard as it sits is worth 1 - 2 k in my opinion plus it’s a salty .
probably it is market dependent. in that area stuff might be in high demand. Here in NJ, a hull like that is junk, free for a taking. Better ones pop up on the market all the time for few hundred bucks. Agree on the outboard. few K at the most.
Not here in Australia.
4k australian is like 20-30 bucks american
@@LMSILVIA not anymore..FJB took care of that
@@DC_PRL 😂🤣😂🤣
.
I didn't think it looked cost effective to repair it and wondered why you were bothering...
That's what they said about the Yamaha F70 I welded up a few weeks ago too.
I'd repair the motor, scrap the boat.
It's funny, because if it was mine I would fix the hull and repower. Each to their own I guess...
why don't you buy it and flip it for a profit?
It is tempting.
Almost didn’t recognise you with all that beard ………..!
I'm disguise! ;)
Wreck the lot.
Love the can-do attitude.
I remember when you didn’t know what WD-40 was. Your welcome.
Mercury means throw back in the water. 🥲😂🤣😅😭
