I heard the C8 boat has the engine in the front.
You're not allowed to be this funny on the internet
Actually underneath (mid engine) yes I got the joke and I made it better
Quality comment
@@miggy4105 Wow soo many underlying issues
Buying a 12 year old used boat that they only made 50 of. What could go wrong
The best way to have fun with a boat, is to have a friend with a boat.
Yes, it made for very fun summer weekends throughout my childhood!
Yes I agree that way you are not the one pitching money at hole in the water
I know the feeling....lol
Or buy a jet ski. Much cheaper and you're going to go a lot faster for your money. Cheeper to maintain because they're simple and usually okay to work on and cheaper to store because well it's like a fourth the size of a boat.
Jet skis are fun never owned one had a boat had to spend couple hundred eveetime I took it out on parts after I put everything on it new and stayed over I was done sold that baby
It comes with life jackets by Tommy Bahama and skis made by New Balance.
I really want a Tommy Bahama Hawaiian print life jacket now. Maybe with a goofy collar and wooden buttons.
@@claireernst693 yes... maybe even inflatable
😂
@@roberthill3207 life jackets don't have to be inflatable....
@@fcscouto your right also don't need to be large and bulky.
If any of you were about to buy a Corvette boat...nevermind. Who would do that?
Hoovie!
Ed, you need a boat based on a murcielago
* starts looking for a Malibu Corvette boat*
Doug. Cause he likes Corvettes
Me
An RCR referencing title. Nice.
Sounds like they have to get Mr. Regular on and have him tell some stories.
@@gekquad116 something makes me think that climaxing on a Boeing 747 somewhere over the Azores isn't a story fit for this channel.

but does it have the numbers matching color ash tray?
doug is the most corvette ‘not a vette guy” guy i know of
Who doesnt like a nice vette. I've been driving all kinds of brands that produce v8s & now a days chevy & ford are the only places to get a fun, good looking car, manual transmission paired to a lovely V8 at a reasonable price. My dream is to get the 2020 M5 atm but for 200k after all my options is just not financially responsible I'd be living paycheck to paycheck like that but a used zo6,zr1 c7, new c8 or a mustang 5.0/327 boss or even a friggin hellcat are all awesome and I can live with day to day without breaking the bank
karl G Dodge makes a manual trans challenger 👀
Hopefully Mr. Regular will make an appearance.
nah we need doug demuro
@@yungtooli you are not very bright are you
@@arizonarangerwithabigirono1959 doug better than mr regular its just facts
@@yungtooli no
@@arizonarangerwithabigirono1959 yes. get mr regulars meat out of your mouth
Vinwiki should definitely get Mr. Regular to tell a story, that would be insane
Any corvette story
Mr. Regular has made 2 appearances now!
@@joeyherrmann9564 LETS GOOOOO
This man really showed up to pick up his Corvette boat with a boat themed truck. A boat car towing a car boat.
It's just Missing a horribly cringey personalized license plate.
Kind of like the M4 Comp I saw the other day with M4COMP. as the plate.
I love how the title is an RCR reference. Hope Mr. Regular gets an invite one of these days.
@ThePatriotic Indian regular car reviews
It's a UA-cam channel
I was today years old when I learned Corvette boats exist.
Lamborghini boats do too
@@ImARealHumanPerson That one I did know
I remember seeing them back in the day and thinking it was so cool. First thing I noticed after a day on a regular bass boat was all that black would be miserable.
So it’s the boat equivalent of a true exotic car. Perfect.
Look up them mf lambo super boats those things are sick
Or the Mercedes and Porsche yachts, those are REAL exotic boats
"the million limited production Corvettes" - hahaha
I was shook when I saw cloth corvette seats, I was like wow that's rare! Oh they were just the standard option... but still rare!
After Doug described the interior I thought for sure he would have named it "Cor-wette"
My dad always used to say, "The best days of a boat owners life are the day he buys it and the day he sells it".
Soon as I saw the title I knew this was going to be a Doug story.
I thought it could've been rabbit... but nope.
@@Cal94 That would have been my second guess hahaha.
I figured he would be the last person in the world to buy a vette boat the way he talks about Corvette owners
My friend was a mechanic for Malibu, they used to laugh so hard at these useless things, especially the one time every 2 years someone actually used one and needed maintenance...
"I called Malibu, and they laughed at me" HAGHA
Same here--Called Malibu about the tires and rims and they laughed.
Called Malibu about the motor and they laughed.
They just laugh at anybody buying one of those boats.
@@GeraldRisch Looks like someone is still in business against all odds... and they don't even care about it.
I was really hoping this would be a RCR story but I’ll take a Doug story
Same
BROWWWWWWWNNN
not a car!!!!
"Rare!"
@@wildmikefilms BRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
Sounds like the best 35k you could spend on a boat with no flippin' cleats.

Much love, your friends at Rev Media!!
Ahoy, Senor Admiral Stig! When might we expect a nautical Cannonball record in in the Sea-6?
GET RCR ON THE SHOW
A boat meant to not exist
outside of a garage
that is sad, and dissappointing
Wise words
Never take laxatives and sleeping pills together
What clever name would you give a Corvette boat?
I told Doug that if it were based on a C7 Z06 it would have to be named "HEAT SOAK"
MID LIFE
If they did one on the 2020 platform it'd be a Sea-8

Vette-2-O
Can we appreciate the RCR reference in the title for a second lol
have you considered replacing the speaker system with all marine grade speakers?
Quite surprised marine equipment
(esp speakers) wasn't used in the first place?
@@stuartd9741 i figured they just used the ones that came from the factory for the corvette
Stuart D the fact that it had no cleats whatsoever really proves that it was really just built for show. After hearing about the black interior, the carpet floor, and power windows, the regular “dry” speakers weren’t as surprising... at least they were “covered” in the front storage area!
@@stuartd9741 everything about this boat means it's not surprising. The only thing that is surprising is that it floats.
its bust out another thousand.
Doug is a good story teller, his vids are always entertaining
Gotta love the way the Mexican stig tells a story
Not really.
A boat is a hole in the water you throw money into.
That was a unique story ! A expensive boat that’s all show, but no go.
My boat has four of them! They’re made by Seven Marine. They’re called 627s.
It’s an outboard. Basically an supercharged LS adapted to an outboard. I love it!
For my boat I didn’t trust impellers.
I put a thru hull fitting in my engine compartment. I got a 200 gph electric pump and tied it in with the cooling system. If I’m out and the impeller ever quits I just flip the switch.
When you wanted to buy a corvette boat to showboat in, but instead bought a show boat.
Ed Bolian's diss track on the Corvette boat is FIRE
His boat was designed to be a garage trailer queen.
Video finishes
Everybody
UA-cam search “corvette boat”
Guilty
finds actual navy corvettes
That obscure british car quote made me laugh because I got an obscure british car that's impossible to find parts for
99% of the time I'm a big go out and drive your shit person, but I don't really think this is the boat you buy to use in this way, it's more of a take out for a sunday or late afternoon speed run and then put back on the boat lift. If you really want to use a boat, any early 2000's malibu can do all the same things, just slightly slower and less unique, but they still sound amazing at WOT and are plenty fast. Having had a 2003 malibu sunscape since new in the family I can say I've always wanted one of the corvette boats too though!
I totally agree.. I had a 2004 Malibu response LX and currently have a '99 response LX. Very little trouble, mostly just normal maintenance. They do most everything well (except surfing). Killer wake for slolam.. excellent wake for barefooting... very practical... but not a single cleat! Plenty of other places to tie up to... I thought the Corvette boat was cool but glad I don't own one!
Always wanted one of these Malibu Corvette boats. I remember seeing the ad for the first gen in Waterski magazine back in the 90s. Very cool to see this.
"Bring On Another Thousand" is a new one on me. That one literally made me laugh out loud 🤣
Always heard it at least in Michigan as "bust out another thousand"
By far the best channel on youtube!!
I miss having a boat I grew up going to Maine every summer and my dad had an old lobster boat with some engine mods since it wasn't being used as a lobster fishing boat, had to sell it when he got diagnosed with brain cancer, I miss him and the as he would say, the vessel known as the owl
Doug always tells the best stories, nobody can change my mind about that.
there is a show out there where they normally build cars, but they got hold of a boat, and made it look like a corvette. It has TWO engines. They made a piece for the back that looks like the old Split window desgin, corvette tail lights, all that, but still is a boat.
"GM- nobody sweats the details..." Malibu boats as well-
May not be the most practical boat.... but I need one too.
i was going to buy one of these c6 boats at one point. i even drove 16 hours to look at it, did a once over, got back in my truck and drove another 16 hours home.
One of the most beautifully told story on the net. Honest and funny!
I remember the 70's show car/ boat that was a banana yellow stingray and drag boat in matching yellow. They had done it up with a roll bar to look stingray-ish and had the seats and ash as well with tail lights across the back the back that plugged into the car lighting. Both the Corvette and boat had matching blown big block motors. Both looked really cool but I'm willing to bet the boat was best on the trailer.
Never knew I wanted one of these but now I need it
Which corvette is best corvette?
My corvette is best because it’s a bOaT

Someone who lived on the pond near my house growing up had a Corvette boat. This was in the 90s, so obviously the original. It was on the water all the time, and I remember thinking it was so badass.
The story I've been waiting for ever since he mentioned the boat in his trip to Maine story. 😁
A "corvette" is a small warship. How appropriate. :)
@ 10 53............ THERE'S A TON WAY OVER & UNDER DEGINED ON & FOR THIS CORVETTE BOAT........ AS HE'S TELLING THE STORY AS HE USUSALLY DOES IN AWESOME STORY TIME-NESS AS ALWAY'S ..... I BET HE IS THINKING OF SOME TIME PULLING IT ALL A PART & RE-DESIGNING THIS DAMN THING THE WAY IT OUGHT TO BE FOR THE LONG HAUL I LOVED THE PART WHERE he say's u have to be a gynm -nist to get over the front windshield to get the life vest's w/o putting any pressure on it so it not go off track............ 10 dang hrs,. of labor alone to just put 1 of the power side widow's back on it's track....................... wooooooow weeeeeee
There is a real aqua vette near Seattle made of real 67 vette, parts acquired from various wrecking yards, it's powered by a 50HP outboard motor. it has a real front clip, door skins, quarters, trunk lid, tail lights, everything, it sits atop what was once a 14 foot fiberglass row boat
Every Corvette is rare

Nice! I just saw this on the trailer at the Wrapped By SB get together. I had so many questions...
I absolutely love this channel as a car lover this is amazing
Loved the preface to this story about the Grand Caravan. Haha
There was one on mousam lake in Acton Maine when I was a kid. Two camps down from my family camp. Always loved it. And was thinking about it yesterday.Isn't this guy from NH? I live in NH too. Weird connection
Seen a second generation at GM head quarters in Detroit I was in love 🚗 🚘
That rockford Fosgate system tho 🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍
I actually sold one of these in 2008(work at a dealer) It was vin #26. Only time it was ever driven was when we put it on, and took it back off the guys lift. He never drove it. Scared the hell out of him.
I drove it twice, absolute rocket as far as ski boats are concerned.
A lot of boats are carpeted. It will dry out in the sun. No need for a vacuum or dehumidifiers.
You Sir are hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
Great storytelling
In the early 90’s Baja made a WettVette with an LT5. They only made 1. It was a pretty neat boat.
This boat is perfectly corvette engineering personified .
6:20. You don't need to replace an impeller unless the blades get damaged. The wear ring, on the other hand, should be replaced every year for best performance, but does not have to be replaced that often. None of that matters since your boat uses a propeller and not a jet drive, though.
Love the RCR reference for the title. LOL
It's literally a land yacht! You should sell it to Hoovie!
Cleetus!! Just found your jet boat brother!
When I was a kid I was in Massachusetts on the Connecticut River near the town of Gill and I vividly remember a corvette boat but it was Blue idk if it was legit because I was maybe 11 years old but it certainly had the corvette Bow.
This boat is so cool in person
There was a movie in the eighties where the people stole a Corvette and put the motor in a boat it actually had the four tail lights from a vet on the back of the boat and it was really neat
I live on a lake and own a boat, and I know all those issues I’ve been on so many boats that I know too much about them. Speakers, seats, the dash, windows, etc. There is definitely a love hate relationship with boats you get. And I can’t imagine it with that boat
So most all boats around that time came with carpeted interiors, that is pretty common so that I don't think is a design flaw of this boat in particular. Also the tires more than likely blew because they were the original tires and were just old, expired, and dry rotted. Many new boats, including mine, come with 18" rims and low profile car tires on the trailer. I've logged over 10,000 miles on mine with absolutely no issues. Heated seats and heaters are also a common feature of tow boats, especially for people who live in up north who many want to get an extra month or two use since their summers are so short. The LS7 is small block so I am not sure how it would be much more difficult to work on space wise than any other small block in a tow boat. I have a DOHC 6.2 V8 from a Raptor in my boat with fresh water cooler and there is ample room to reach everything.
Please do more stories about the boat.
i work at a malibu dealership in massachusetts and most of them i see are red ones like these except theres one i see every once in awhile its silver and has glass instead of seats over the engine and its bad ass af
I remember seeing one of these ina dealer in Texas
It's easy to grin When your ship comes in And you've got the stock market beat. But the man worthwhile, Is the man who can smile, When his shorts are too tight in the seat
a very Regular Car Reviews title, i approve.
8:48 Most Malibu boats from the 90’s and 2000’s are carpeted. The carpet doesn’t make this corvette boats design flaws any worse
4:38 what i wanna know is, what is that truck(/suv/thing?) that's towing the boat?
You’re a natural corvette boat salesman
Sounds like this is more trouble than it's worth but I am happy for got your dream!
This thumbnail was legit my desktop wallpaper during the early 2000's.
Hold mon Hold on, hold on..... 4:38 Is that an... EXPLORER TRUCK??? :D
I am as excited as you are lol. Ford Expedition Seascape.
That boat screams Rob Pitts .
I like very much the title format, good nod to RCR
my dads boat has a carpet flooring and leather seats the seats do get hot but the carpet never gets that wet to the point of using a shopvac to suck it out
I know Chris or Rabbit have a boat story...Can't wait for theirs
ummmm... can we talk about the tow vehicle at 4:40? that aint no regular Expedition. Looks dope as heck!
How did the 2008 Corvette boat get a better wheel than the C6?
