It's good to know there are still people around with enough ingenuity to make useful items from bits and pieces. Yes I would like to see the inside of your friends houseboat. Thank you for your updates.
I'm from Canada, and I love following your world. As much as I love crabs, we aren't so fortunate up this way, the best we get are the "God only knows where you came from, and how long you've been frozen". Keep up the great life style...It makes us smile!
100% houseboat tour. For a young fisherman, you do a hell of a great job getting it done. Absolutely No judgment in using scrap or free material to build your dream... adds character. I'm not a commercial anything, but I do use reclaimed lumber, scrap steel, reclaimed bolts, and screws to put projects together. Yeah, they may not last as long as brand new.. but it works... and that's what matters. Always enjoy your videos.. keep up the great work
Brilliant! Hilarious, absolutely ingenious use of everything. The humour about hammers, dinosaurs, 6 wires etc and brilliant personality makes this so fun to watch. Thank you !
great video! very interesting about how the old watermen re purposed everything they could get your boat looks great you can tell the first second you see it that the captain takes pride great channel and content !!
Thanks Luke for the tour of your boat and all the work you put into it. You are not dumb or an idiot. You are enterprising, intelligent, creative and hardworking. Be proud of youself and the work you do. And thank you for all the work you do to satisfy our crab cravings!!! Love you Luke! Keep on keeping on!!! God Bless you!!! 💞
Luke, you’re a good guy. I’m also from Baltimore County, northern. Up 83 past Hereford in Parkton. As a physician often I would work in Glen Burnie and Pasadena . Patient first I think it’s admirable that you’ve made a living off the bay. I love eating crabs and plan to get them from you this 2024 season
Would definitely, respectfully like to see the inside of the houseboat it looks awesome from the outside as well!! Thanks for all the hard work. Stay safe out there You're boat is very impressive as well, great work on it and very ingenuitive.
Great job narrating - so many creators stumble and mumble - you’re so smooth! When you get tired of crabbing - you could train others, teach, or public speak!
A lot of ingenuity in this boat. I consider myself resourceful, but I am resourceful when it comes to tech and electrical things. I can't even fathom the amount of time it would take me to recreate some of your systems.
That's absolutely awesome. Theres nothing better than making and piecing things together and being able to modify/fix everything yourself with things other than what some corporation forces you to buy at extortionary prices.
That is some awesome work you have done on that boat. I love how you have made most of it yourself. She's a beautiful boat and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Keep up the good work young man.
You are truly amazing in your ingenuity in making things that are totally a functional for the boat. You are very resourceful !! Such a hardworking goin man. Ever get discouraged in what you are doing you are such a amazing young man !!! I appreciate getting to watch your vids. I am a recreational crabber. I love Crabbing I run out of Tredavon River from Easton Md. also Delaware River as I’m situated between The Delaware River and Chesapeak. Wish I was closer I would help you !!!
Got a bit excited when you talked about your caterpillar engine bc my husband is the GM at Blanchard Caterpillar in Summerville SC. He was impressed of your knowledge of your boat engine etc. but he’s no crabber so that’s why he was impressed lol. Love your channel Luke stay safe 🇺🇸
I can’t wait for you to be so successful you can upgrade. This is not a knock against your workhorse. I figure you can spend more time crabbing instead of patching. You truly are an inspiration for young people to go on their own and hustle to make a living. Great stuff!
Luke, you were definitely a farmer in your previous life. My favorite part about your videos is seeing what you’re going to make/modify with stuff just laying around.
I grew up on the water around Charleston , SC where we did all kinds of recreational fishing, shrimping, crabbing, oysters, hunting, whatever. I've shared early morning water with crabbers many, many times. I have great respect for all of the commercial guys. When I'm on the water I try and stay out of your way! More power to you, man. Keep on going, there's no telling what great things are ahead of you. ✌🏼
Young man, I just want to say that we are so much alike,me I'm just an ole hillbilly from Eastern Kentucky and pretty much fabricate anything I need instead of going to a big box store and buying it !! There is nothing wrong with using another man's junk and making a useful tool for myself !! Keep up the hardwork Son, You are a different breed than the youngins coming up today !! Enjoy watching your channel, great informative content !!! Y'all have a Merry Christmas and happy new year !!!
Love the video!! Nice dive into the boat! My parents use to have a house on the Corrotoman River......it was awesome!!! Nice looking ride! Good workhorse!!
You know your boat inside and out. You are definitely a MacGyver. Able to build anything. Your boat is definitely homemade. I Would like to see your friends house boat too. Thanks for the video tour.
Somebody with Eastern Shore connections here. Tilghman Island. Also for 12 years I had the only Chesapeake work boat in Bermuda. Yes, the Triangle Bermuda. It was nothing fancy. An Evans 32, cut from the 34 mold. Never fished a day in it's life. Indoor/outdoor carpet on cockpit deck. Maybe the only work boat with a transom door and a swim platform. Power was also old school diesel. A Perkins 6-354, 240hp. Basically what you would find in an old London Bus. Huge engine for the hp and dirt simple. It was also my work boat but it hauled people. It was used for charter sightseeing and snorkelling trips. The cockpit room that makes for a good crab boat also makes it a great people hauler. Shallow draft is perfect for getting over reefs and into shallow bays with beaches. If I was ever to get another boat for private use it would be a Chesapeake work boat, about 30', diesel with a medium length cabin for the occasional overnight.
great video young man. I've lived on the Bay just south of Chesapeake Beach for over 25 years. I've seen crab boats and fishing boats and i even had a 24 foot bayliner i'd take out regularly and kept at breezy point but i've never seen one up close and personal. thanks for the tour. necessity is the mother of invention.....and you sir should patent your fixes......look forward to all your videos and shorts. keep it up.
15:16 🤔 If you want to avoid winterizing you get a way to run a block heater that goes in one of the middle freeze plugs and you need a small electric pump to push water through the system with your shore power. Something like that is used in Alaska where they run every day. You are a wonderful Guy Brother and you clearly understand how to make decent conversions. Outstanding. I’m a Fisherman in the Tulalip Tribal Fishery. I Set Net in my Bay for Salmon and we 🦀 Crab and Shrimp and Fish everywhere around the Salish Sea. We have a ton of boats converted into Fishing boats from Bayliners and Glassply to commercial aluminum boats. We have a few crab boats it’s a miracle they make it back every time 😅 but we help them out for safety for sure.😏 God Bless you. God Bless the Fishermen ❤🖖🏼🇺🇸
Good deal. That flare makes it look like a monk. Good move transferring the weight and windage into a keel for ballast and slowing the righting moment.
My dream when I was about 10/12 yrs old was always to live on a boat. Actually in the Del Ray Marina. I have no idea why "there" when I live in Ohio. 🤷♀️ I dont remember. Maybe it was in a song. 😂 🤷♀️ Anyways, nice video! I love learning about crabbing and other ways of doing things. 🦀 The way you explain it, I can understand. You are easy to listen to and actually funny! Excited to see the tour of the houseboat! Thanks!
Your craft is awesome, I'm waiting for you to start pulling a trap barge to load a ton of more traps. I envy how well you and your wife have done. Hope to visit you one day. Get fishing and get them crabs. Larry of the south.
Luke, you got a good attitude. What a unique personality. I love how you tease yourself and how you keep everything k i s s. Keep it simple stupid! What a great way to go through life. Nothing complicated. You're analogy that all tools are hammers is excellent! You are definitely a hard-working dedicated and honest guy. I love seeing young guys like you just having the absolute best attitude. Your girlfriend should adore you. Hard to find us good old boys anymore. Keep up the good work.
You’re an inspiring young man. You should be so proud of what you have pieced together to provide for you and your significant other. I’m now a subscriber! PS: I love crab just don’t like picking them apart. I make unbelievably great crab cakes!
I do not know you in person, but after watching your videos it felt like I already know you more than a decade. Your passion toward crabbing is no longer a job when you enjoy doing it. You make everything looks at ease even it seems difficult at times. This incredible working ethic doesn’t happen by fluke. Perhaps, you could introduce your folks in one of your segment. I would love to thank you them for raising a wonderful young man. Be safe out there… big hugs 🤗
Nice thanks for showing us🎉 its funny here in the Netherlands we convert workingboats to houseboats. I live on a barge from 1911 (it was pulled by horses) thats now a houseboat
I'm from West Virginia and if I ever decided to live anywhere else besides the Mountain State it'd be on the Bay. Years ago I went out crab long lining with a captain out of Kent Narrows, it was amazing. If it wasn't for all my family back here I'd definitely be working and living the Bay Life.. Thanks for all the videos..
I think you do a perfect job with your boat ,it runs and its clean and looks pretty darn good,i just have a 14ft tracker jon boat with a 20hp Yamaha tiller engine hand steering style nothing special , me and my 15 yr old son crappie fish or go trout fishing just about twice a week ,when winter comes i have to make sure theres no water in my outboard or it will freeze then im looking for another outboard anyway very interesting video love what you do , thanks for sharing ,take care and god bless
Mate, you're an inspiration to the youth of today, Your hard work and tenacity are what schools should be showcasing instead of drag queen hours etc. Keep up the good work...from the UK.
Caterpillar built much of its business on the 3208. It was their workhouse, used in everything from tractors, boats, trucks, heavy equipment and more. It was offered in a wide variety of hp depending on intake. There were hundreds (thousands?) of 31 Bertrams with 3208's. Easy to work on and diagnose, overbuilt block and heads, easy to rebuild. They were unique because they were really nothing special, but all in, a solid performer.
Thank You I enjoyed that.. You would have made a good Farmer... I drive a tractor trailer for a living... but when someone watches me MacGyver something together to either make something or fix something on the spot I am often told ... You must be a farmer. It's all about taking what ya got to make what you need... keep on with the excellent engineering.
I love seeing the Cat Engine, I am retired from Cat and I worked at the Mossville Il. Plant where that engine would have been built. It should weigh between 1550 and 1700 pounds including your bolt ons. Love your content.
Man, you are formidable. I have, my whole life, aspired to be self sufficient as much as possible, often cobbling together effective solutions for problems. You, however, might just put me to shame! I love your content and I wish I was your friend!
My uncle had a boat similar to this, but it had a longer cab. And I’m the cab it had like bench seats with a table in the middle. I remember me my dad and my uncle went out off the eastern shore. I feel asleep in the cab woke up, my dad had a line out. I used that like I caught a massive fish can’t remember what kind. Man some good time out on the bay, I miss them days
U have just described my ol man’s boat 😂 It’s a converted 32ft double ended lifeboat into a twin beam trawler, and we use her for blowing cockles in the Wash Norfolk England 👍✌️
That "Houseboat" is a Chris Craft Aqua Home, 45 ft, likely 70/71 originally. Beautiful in it';s day. My folks had one on the Mississippi (Pool 26) ..the "Patricia"!
The Chesapeake Deadrise will always be my favorite boat. Worked with Joey down at Sinepuxent Boatworks building these boats for commercial purposes and built one for recreational use for fishing and pleasure boating, and it by far exceeds anything else, for me anyway. But that’s just bcuz I love the old school and the historic aspect of the Chesapeake Bay lifestyle. The Chesapeake waterman lifestyle is something that has always resonated with me. From crabbing to fishing to waterfowl hunting. I’ll take the old school over anything new school and modern.
I definitely want the houseboat tour.
Me too! 😅👍🏠 ⛵❤
Same here
Its called the Busted Flush.
Hello
You so cute
It's good to know there are still people around with enough ingenuity to make useful items from bits and pieces.
Yes I would like to see the inside of your friends houseboat.
Thank you for your updates.
Yes, let's check out your buddies Houseboat...
@@jvatkinson40 In Ireland we call it "bodge" or "bodging"
I'm from Canada, and I love following your world. As much as I love crabs, we aren't so fortunate up this way, the best we get are the "God only knows where you came from, and how long you've been frozen". Keep up the great life style...It makes us smile!
100% houseboat tour.
For a young fisherman, you do a hell of a great job getting it done.
Absolutely No judgment in using scrap or free material to build your dream... adds character.
I'm not a commercial anything, but I do use reclaimed lumber, scrap steel, reclaimed bolts, and screws to put projects together. Yeah, they may not last as long as brand new.. but it works... and that's what matters.
Always enjoy your videos.. keep up the great work
This young man is very humble and friendly just a good soul
Sweet work boat. Great McGuire tips. Love the pvc rail. And the sizing station.
Brilliant! Hilarious, absolutely ingenious use of everything. The humour about hammers, dinosaurs, 6 wires etc and brilliant personality makes this so fun to watch. Thank you !

your boat looks great
you can tell the first second you see it that the captain takes pride

Luke, you’re a good guy. I’m also from Baltimore County, northern. Up 83 past Hereford in Parkton. As a physician often I would work in Glen Burnie and Pasadena . Patient first

I love that you have old parts from Mr Trashwheel. The true hero of Baltimore!
I can’t wait for you to be so successful you can upgrade. This is not a knock against your workhorse. I figure you can spend more time crabbing instead of patching. You truly are an inspiration for young people to go on their own and hustle to make a living. Great stuff!
love all the ingenuity on your boat and work spaces.
The positive energy from this man is amazing. I don’t even eat crabs. But I like this dude
Luke, you were definitely a farmer in your previous life. My favorite part about your videos is seeing what you’re going to make/modify with stuff just laying around.

Really nice job on your boat! And great job on the video. I learned a lot watching. Really enjoyed it

Proper engineering! Really interesting and inspiring video! Good on ya fella.

My dream when I was about 10/12 yrs old was always to live on a boat.
Actually in the Del Ray Marina.
I have no idea why "there" when I live in Ohio. 🤷♀️

Thanks!
Rocking the Molly's shirt, love that place!
💯 we want a houseboat tour and this thing’s a masterpiece crazy how much you have to know to build something like this
If I was to guess your buddies the houseboat was once a 46’ Chris Craft Aquahome. 🤔😬
I learned a lot about boats from this video. Thanks Luke!!
Your craft is awesome, I'm waiting for you to start pulling a trap barge to load a ton of more traps. I envy how well you and your wife have done. Hope to visit you one day. Get fishing and get them crabs.
Larry of the south.
Great vid Luke. Deffo want the houseboat tour 😊
Im from Florida and actually went crabbing with my brother up your way. It was a blast. Awesome videos keep it up
I've watched many of ur vids. I think ur one of the hardest working people I've seen lately. Especially these days. KEEP IT UP love the vids
Enjoy watching your videos from Florida 👍🏻
Luke, you got a good attitude. What a unique personality. I love how you tease yourself and how you keep everything k i s s. Keep it simple stupid! What a great way to go through life.

Great video! You really work your butt off and it shows! Wishing you the brightest future in crabbing! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
Smart young man, keep living the good life buddy.
Nice thanks for showing us🎉 its funny here in the Netherlands we convert workingboats to houseboats. I live on a barge from 1911 (it was pulled by horses) thats now a houseboat
Yep, let's get that tour of your buddy's house! 🎉 Love your channel, dude!
this is an awesome video... need more of these!
can't wait for the cabin tour
Cool video Luke! Keep on truckin brother!
Great tour and very educational. Thank you.
You're doing great, Luke. You remind me a lot of my younger days.
I'm from West Virginia and if I ever decided to live anywhere else besides the Mountain State it'd be on the Bay. Years ago I went out crab long lining with a captain out of Kent Narrows, it was amazing. If it wasn't for all my family back here I'd definitely be working and living the Bay Life.. Thanks for all the videos..
That house boat that doesn't really look like a house boat... it's my dream boat 😮
I think you do a perfect job with your boat ,it runs and its clean and looks pretty darn good,i just have a 14ft tracker jon boat with a 20hp Yamaha tiller engine hand steering style nothing special , me and my 15 yr old son crappie fish or go trout fishing just about twice a week ,when winter comes i have to make sure theres no water in my outboard or it will freeze then im looking for another outboard anyway very interesting video love what you do , thanks for sharing ,take care and god bless
Mate, you're an inspiration to the youth of today, Your hard work and tenacity are what schools should be showcasing instead of drag queen hours etc. Keep up the good work...from the UK.
Do you know when your boat was converted into a work boat?
Yes on the house boat tour!
Great video!
We had that same motor in our do-all trucks at work. When I started working for the town I grew up in. They called the 3208 a throw away motor
Caterpillar built much of its business on the 3208. It was their workhouse, used in everything from tractors, boats, trucks, heavy equipment and more. It was offered in a wide variety of hp depending on intake. There were hundreds (thousands?) of 31 Bertrams with 3208's. Easy to work on and diagnose, overbuilt block and heads, easy to rebuild. They were unique because they were really nothing special, but all in, a solid performer.

As far as working boats this one is clean.
I love seeing the Cat Engine, I am retired from Cat and I worked at the Mossville Il. Plant where that engine would have been built. It should weigh between 1550 and 1700 pounds including your bolt ons. Love your content.
That’s so cool we call it grading and we have a striker who does it and I’m a striker and I love grading shaking the traps I don’t 😂
Man, you are formidable. I have, my whole life, aspired to be self sufficient as much as possible, often cobbling together effective solutions for problems. You, however, might just put me to shame! I love your content and I wish I was your friend!
House boat tour yes
Also never heard you say. "I know I ain't no crabber" before that killed me 🤣🤣
My uncle had a boat similar to this, but it had a longer cab. And I’m the cab it had like bench seats with a table in the middle. I remember me my dad and my uncle went out off the eastern shore. I feel asleep in the cab woke up, my dad had a line out. I used that like I caught a massive fish can’t remember what kind. Man some good time out on the bay, I miss them days
Definitely would like to see the inside of the houseboat, good video.
Get a couple long stainless rollers to put on that work rail in the rope drag spots to keep from wearing your work rail down and stressing your rope.
U have just described my ol man’s boat 😂
It’s a converted 32ft double ended lifeboat into a twin beam trawler, and we use her for blowing cockles in the Wash Norfolk England 👍✌️
Awesome video Captain!
That "Houseboat" is a Chris Craft Aqua Home, 45 ft, likely 70/71 originally. Beautiful in it';s day. My folks had one on the Mississippi (Pool 26) ..the "Patricia"!
Met you at St. Michaels Waterman Festival 2 days ago , Nice guy in person , Keep Grinding Luke 💪
I bet you have a new boat in a year or two. I enjoy your content. From Arkansas Good luck
Great crab boat
The Chesapeake Deadrise will always be my favorite boat. Worked with Joey down at Sinepuxent Boatworks building these boats for commercial purposes and built one for recreational use for fishing and pleasure boating, and it by far exceeds anything else, for me anyway. But that’s just bcuz I love the old school and the historic aspect of the Chesapeake Bay lifestyle. The Chesapeake waterman lifestyle is something that has always resonated with me. From crabbing to fishing to waterfowl hunting. I’ll take the old school over anything new school and modern.
Awesome ❤
Totally take us on a houseboat tour 😊
h
Hey Luke... You remind me of some of my best friends and I told them about you and watch your videos THEY AGREE . Thanks again, Buffalo Bruce
You have pride in but also respect for your The Souther Girl, all i can tell you is she looks good on camera.
So good! Feel like I learned even more about crabbing. What is the plan for the second boat you bought?
“If you don’t use crab traps as a unit of measurement, you ain’t no crabber!”😂
Love the content! Keep up the good work!
You are an amazing guy! Fun, smarter than you look (haha) and hard working. Cheers!
Great video
Awesome tour!
