    Matt !!! That is ONE SICK BOAT!!! OMGosh - What a turn-out. Personally, better than most anyone imagined to start - hat's off to ya (and crew)!!! Def pat yerselves on the back with this one! :)
    ------- Earlier, we talked of cooling the engine compartment (if needed at all) ... I dropped back on a few vlogs to grab info and configurations. I believe that motor is "fresh" water cooled with an intake drawing in, circulating around head(s)/combustion chambers and discharging out !?! So "high" temps shouldn't be; typical fresh water wouldn't be 80 to 90F ... as long as those water chambers stay clean, cooling shouldn't be an issue. So -- to deal with the exhaust temps that will build ... That muffler (combo mixing chamber???), if I remember correctly, is made (or intended) to take on water to "muffle" and to cool. The chamber location was below the exhaust manifold with a weird "twist" or kink to keep water from reaching the manifold -- part of the "cooling" plumbing discharge goes to that to ensure to "keep" water "in" while the motor is running (researching that design is wise if temps get too high [metal surfaces around motor]). There are electric fans available (for cars) that are "thermostatically" controlled (temp can be set for upper and lower limits). You can either push or pull the air across left side of motor (directed channel/tunnel) from the kick panel in the co*kpit area. If heat were to become an issue (or is) we can talk more! :) Be Safe

    Console back further and the lean post seat ontop of the motor. That how I would have done it. But I’m not building it. It turned out so sick. Good shit bro

      Thanks. I'm pretty positive that the wieght distribution should be spot on. There's literally a 180 horsepower. 4 cylinder car engine in the back deck lol.

    Build looks killer , make sure you put vents for the engine and a blower so the boat doesnt blow up from gas vapors.

    Amazing looking boat. I would leave the motor cowling unturfed myself. And put the “TRICKED TINS” logo on the sides and back. It would be cool if there was a way to install a swing away seat behind the console. That way when you don’t want to sit down it would be out of the way and leave it wide open for space.

      Thanks Bob! Im turf'n the motor hatch. Might throw some vents in it? Idk yet? 🤷‍♂️ customer wants to install his own seats. We'll see what happens. Footage at the end of this video was recorded Friday! Things change everyday!

  • @robwellsoutdooradventures5991

    I like what you did with the lights. I'm in the process of redoing the floor in an old aluminum SeaKIng boat.

    Man, if you could put a smaller displacement engine and make that back deck flat. Be even dope-r. No doubt the 180Hp is a beast though

    Man it turned out great! Your weld and metal fab skills are something special. I’m not sure I would turf the engine cover. Maybe let your guy paint it same color of boat or have it powder coated. Either way I’m sure you’ll make it look awesome.

    If I was the owner of the boat I would have you do everything 100% from top to bottom.
    I feel that the owner and his welders screwed up the work that was done for him and called to my problems.
    This is my feeling! From what I see I feel that they disrespecting your involvement.
    I guess it bothers me when individuals disrespect people when they try to work together as a team and they destroy and do not listen to the other person's reasoning and why did what they did.
    I just feel they disrespect you. I'm sorry about what I see this although in the end, there's a great job and you do excellent if I ever could do that I would have you do it.
    You're living the dream that I would love to do and yes dude in my terminal medical condition problems I can't do it anymore.
    Sincerely!
    R.S.V.

      I like Miller. We have over 60 welding machines in our fleet, but I use a Dynasty 210 at the shop and a Diversion 180 at home.
