How will you put the motor and shaft in facing that direction? No door in the back. Drop that rig outside and load backwards on the trailer then put inside
What’s he putting in it for an engine? My buddy up in Bathurst got a 45’ Provincial out of PEI two years ago with a thousand horsepower Volvo in it! Damn thing can do almost 30 knots!
He’s a Cummins die hard he’s thinking 700hp QSM11, that’s the biggest they have until you get into the really big engines that likely won’t fit under the floor.
My son wired every Provincial boat but the last one or two over the last five years. They were getting up to 32 knots out or them, great hull design. Gordon spent a lot of time and researching it to get one of the few transport Canada approved certificates in the market. Now that DFO has approved vessels up to 50 feet there will be a rush to put out new boats. I don't think Provincial Marine has any plans to make a new hull sadly though. My son went out on his own wiring and fitting new boats out of Summerseat and has done about a dozen new boats. There is a lot of work to do outfitting these boats. An update please.
@@macfarms i looked for it and found it right after watching this video. Thanks for the reply. She fishes out of the Sidney area of CB? Nothing like that feeling when a brand new boat hits the water for the first time.
He put a lot of work into it last winter but just took a break over the summer. He’ll be back at it in the fall. I’ve been taking little clips here and there of it, I’ll put something together when he launches it. She’s going to be a nice boat. He wanted a Dixon for a long long time.
The place that you bought this boat from do they only do lobster boats or do they do other style boats to please comment back thank you very much for this video Have a good time finishing your boat
I Loved the boats tied up in the inlet at Glace Bay NS. There were some beautiful boats there. Oh, I forgot to say "How's it going there Bye"?
Haha oh it's going. Buried in snow. 🙃
Going to be a nice boat. I bet your uncle is happy to have it landed.
Yeah he’s happy to have it home in his shop for sure. He ordered it in October he was lucky to get it as soon as he did.
Nice Mac, I guess you will post some progress video's of that, really great, the first engine test and water launch will be awesome
Yes Jan, I will for sure. Probably won’t be until next year that it’s finished.
@@macfarms No problem Mac, how do syrup going
Pretty good, it was slow to get going at first but it’s flowing good now. I was worried about the late start but I think I’ll be fine after all.
Nice lookin Skeg 👍
This boat, never to be seen again. But everyone's wanting to see the progress.
lol I know I left everybody hanging on this one. Hope to edit the video soon he fished with
It this year.
Nice
Nice ship
Guys, help me out a bit- is that what you would call a Northumberland style? What do you call the type?
How will you put the motor and shaft in facing that direction? No door in the back. Drop that rig outside and load backwards on the trailer then put inside
Probably take it out of the building to install engine I would think.
Is this to replace the other boat or is it to work along side each other?
It will replace his current boat.
nice boat .. hes going to have his work cut out for him putting her together though .. cant wait to see her finished
Yeah there is a lot of work to be done to it yet.
👍👍

There is a more recent video of it in the water. Search Dixon 45 Meant To Be you'll find it.

@@jimdavison4077 yep. He is pleased with it, fished 2 seasons with it now, just put it back in the building for the winter last week.
I wanna see more of the boat
She’ll be in the water for next season.
@@macfarms cool I love those hulls and I'm interested to see shes rigged up

Any updates on the boat?
She's coming along, I've taken a couple videos wasn't planning on doing a video on it until it's done.
