RACE BOAT Rebuild in Minutes START TO FINISH

I'll show you how to restore a badass race boat from start to finish, and share all the methods, tips, and tricks I learned along the way!

ALSO: Please check out my Sleekcraft SST Project, I am restoring it right now and am putting out regular updates:    • Restoring a Race Boat for CHEAP!  $50...  

This is a 1978 Sleekcraft Aristocrat Twin Tunnel Hull, with a modified Mercruiser 260 i/o. I purchased this project boat for $1000 back in 2010, and spent a little under a year bringing it back to life, and relaunched it on June 13th, 2011.

I've now owned this boat for over 10 years, and I've created so many epic memories with friends, made a lot of new ones, and most importantly, I learned a lot of new things and gained new skills to help me tackle even crazier projects. In my opinion, restoring a boat like this is a LOT easier than tackling a project car; the steering is simple, there is no suspension, no rust, the wiring is as simple as you a basic hotrod, and the parts are cheap and plentiful. On top of that, there's generally no speed limits on the water (except for Big Cedar Lake, screw them), less law enforcement, girls are in bikinis, and everyone is in a good mood. LIFE IS GOOD WHEN YOU HAVE AN AWESOME BOAT!

Hopefully watching this will help convince people to tackle their own boat restorations; it's dirty work sometimes but it's not too complex or challenging, so please leave a message if you have any questions and I'll try to help.
