Dream boat project 1976 Mako: How to do fiberglass work
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 06. 2020
- On todays episode we repair parts of the fiberglass on our 22ft Mako. Our main goal for this episode was reinforcing the bow area as it was very weak and flimsy from the long life the boat has lived. We Still have a ways to go for renovation as we paint the top side and hull! Stay tuned for more restoration

Can’t wait to see it!! Once I buy my house this year, I’ll be getting a boat within the next two years! Super sick and bad ass, LOVE YOU
Love you! Thank you!! Let’s find the dream home then get the dream boat 😎
You both are quite literally living the dream, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't jealous best wishes to both of you and your family and friends.
@@CheyenneLeeBehrsin You guys inspired me. I just bought a 1985 Mako 236 Inboard. I go pick it up this weekend.
I love how humble you are. And I love it that you guys restore the 76. Thats year I graduated high school. 🤪 My first boat was a 1960 Sea ray. 18 plus I bought that saved up for it when I was 20 years old. I hope you guys get a lot of subscribers good luck to you.
Looks great. Love your enthousiastic DIY attitude.
You guys are a great team, respect on doing the hard yards. That Mako will be a winner with all the love you are giving her! Thanks for sharing, these little projects are character building.
Thanks y'alls I was looking to rebuild a boat myself
This is so cool!
Taylor is an extremely fortunate man to have a wife like Cheyenne who not only loves fishing, hunting, diving, cooking, is not afraid to get her hands dirty, annnnnd is gorgeous. Taylor is a fortunate man indeed!
Can’t wait to see it finished!! Boat projects are fun, you get to see all your hard work payoff!!
Mako is a good solid boat. You will get a lot of enjoyable use out of it. It can handle just about any conditions out there. Good Luck !
Enjoying the channel! The boat is going to be killer. Mako boats always caught my eye growing up in Marathon, Fl. They just look mean especially the older ones. Can’t wait to see it in action!
Looks like things are coming along well. Keep up the hard work and there will be plenty of time to play later on. I can't wait to see the little things you are planning to do to personalize the boat to your needs and how you pull them off. Keep having fun!
Awesome job, I dont miss the glass boat resto's lol. For future if you rough the edges of your cut cloth it blends down a little nicer. Good to see you used the peanut butter/rice mix to jam into the edges.
Those kitchen silicone spatulas make spreading thickened epoxy very easy.
Nice boat
Good job!
Can't wait to see the finished product.
Thanks for the vid, Cheyenne!
Nice work guys. Look forward to the next episode.
Interesting project. Good job.
That was excellent.You guys work well together.Really enjoyed learning from your project.
So far, so good.......looks good and best wishes!
Shoo girl! Can't wait to see the final! Like I said in previous post: Nothing but a little TLC and she'll get and be better with Age! But, really interesting seeing you working with fiberglass. Pretty cool.. But yep, I see that you grew up with some brothers. You know your way around the ol power and tool shed! Great job Cheyenne, oh yeah and Taylor! 💪🎣
Very cool. It’s looking great.
You guys do nice work. We ran Mako's when I was in the Coast Guard off Long Island (in the 80's before you were born, god I'm old......LOL). They are tough and handle choppy conditions really well. It will be one serious fishing rig when you're done. Also a big fan of the center console. Ours were Volvo Penta inboard out boards which were nice but I like your outboard set up better for fishing (also love the transom jack, will give you much better performance) , it gives you more deck space. Looking forward to more videos and seeing how it turns out!!! Thanks
Y'all are killing it :-) Looking great :-)
Looking good, can't wait for the next part and the colour sounds perfect. Taylor makes a superb co host. Keep up the good work !
You’re going to love the color! Thanks for the positive vibes 🤙
Great job! That thing is solid as a rock now! Huge improvement!
Thank you!! I’m happy with how it came out!
Have fun repairing the boat.
Thank you! We’re having a blast with the experience
@@CheyenneLeeBehrsin I bet the boat will look awesome when completed.
Wow, 24k subscribers! Growing fast, congrats.
Peco mako supremo! Lots of potential with some metal/glass inventions, fun stuff!
I just watched Cheyenne and Taylor sand, fiberglass, sand, sand and sand again. Taylor was in coveralls and a mask 90% of the time. I knew it was her because of the voice:-)) Dang it, I'm a fan.
I enjoyed the video. Looking forward to next step.
That console is the perfect size if everybody would put a smaller console in they're boat they have so much more room good looking boat
I agree! I love it!
Good video as always please stay safe out there
Of course :)
When I lived in the Hobe Sound, Jupiter area in the 80's Mako was the boat to have for offshore water sports, the deep Vee could handle seas you really shouldn't be out in and the hull was bulletproof. I may have known the previous owner. Best of luck to you !!
Good work!! 👍Team work!!👍
Nice work looking forward to next video and hopefully soon it hit the water
Ok. Ready for the next video.
Wow nice job there and bonus points for wearing proper clothing! 😁
Much needed!!
The boat is looking good
Wow nice job u guys!
Just a tip for your next project...if you pre-drill your holes in the plywood...you won't struggle with screwing them down and will save you some frustration. Also...just curious why you wouldn't reinforce the entire top section or round off the plywood edge to eliminate the lip on the side of the plywood. That edge looks like it could be a toe stubber if you aren't paying attention when you get a fish on. All in all looks like a fun project...can't wait to see when it's finished.
Awesome job a solid hull will allow you to have more fun.
Love seeing home projects, been a while since ive messed with or been on a boat. Doing great and cant wait to see the finished product, please protect your eye pieces and have a sealed mask as that fiberglass dust can be hell.
That’s a serious motor. You should try to put two of them on there! Nice boat!
One of the really nice things about doing all of this, is how well you'll know your boat from jump street & be able to trouble shoot & fix anything that might come up! You haven't said Cheyenne, how is the wiring?! Have the harnesses been done well?! (SUGGESTION FOR NAME: REEL JOY)
I hope Taylor knows what he's got with Cheyenne.
Cmon guys. Kick boxes, livewell leanin post,racks for tanks n dive gear! Oh yeah... Some shade would be noice 😂 Happy 4th.
👍👍 missed ya 😊
☆☆☆☆☆
Where do you guys find all these Handyman Women?? There are "wonder women". God Bless you!
A little sweat with some elbow grease and your boat will be ship shape again in no time. Good luck with the restoration!
Good job guys! (:
Thanks !🤙
A one inch paint brush is faster an smooths the smuts better than the popsicle sticks. I've built boats, cars (Avantis) and truck hoods. Resin with fiber glass clippings mix in with 10 cc of catalious. Also using a 1" brush and rollers push the air out better than just rolling, the 1" brush makes a hugh difference in removing air.
Nice Boat with a Kickass Beast of a Motor.. one of my Hates Glass Fibre and Marine Resin.. hate the Stuff
you should have laid down the smaller pieces first working toward the larger pieces last for max strenth
Delray bch with ya !!!
Once you apply that resin, it's hard to flex the plywood
if it's not Marine Plywood better make sure it's fully encapsulated by resin or it will rot
If you watch you can see that i did.
@@CheyenneLeeBehrsin you guys did a great job! Congrats!
Poly resin isn't waterproof. Not trying to be a busybody. Just letting you know.
Coming right along! Will you be adding some kind of roof / shade?
Taylor is a lucky guy to get to hang with you !! Such a babe !!
Cheyenne, that`s a Mockingbird attacking your cat! They attack my lab too!
They’re ferocious!!! Such bold little things lol
Should have sanded all gel coat off from underneath, and resin glued the timber to the boat. The way you've done it will last a year, maybe 2 if your lucky. Board will pull away from the boat, fibreglass will crack and will just start rotting out
Was about to say the same. Grind off all gel coat, and a resin bog mix with talc and/or glass bubble filler sandwiched in between, and clamped instead of screwed until cured before glassing it down.
+2 You guys already had the grinder and fiberglass materials out. You should have done it the proper way. Unfortunately, this is a hack job at best, and will be lucky to last 2 years. The lesson viewers should take from this video is how not to do this kind of job, sorry.
Have a Blessed 4th of July stay safe and happy.
Looking good Cheyenne but if you going to go all in fixing her up nice that console would have to go
Haha... I liked how you got after him for not wearing the suit but you were wearing flip flops then no gloves once then got a bunch of fiberglass dust on the front of your legs. So did you get all itchy??? You're definitely right about men not listening though. I rarely do as I'm told too, and I don't wear PPE when I should. Great job and video guys!!! You should definitely open up a boat and body shop. ;-)
I am not trying to knock you on your project, it seems like you guys know what you're doing and it is coming out great. I was wondering why not cut the existing core out, replace and fair back to original look (rather than have the bump out now in the bow)? Regardless, looks good, I'm sub'd.
So you sand, then apply resin, lay on the glass, and apply resin again. You did that three times, right? So you don't have to let each layer dry before you add additional layers?
Correct, as long as the resin isnt sitting up you can layer nearly as much as you want. Be careful when getting thicker than 3/8” when its above 80* outside as the curing can get quite hot and possibly warp or bubble up if not rolled in good
Did you get the old foam out from under the deck?
Boat =
Bust
Out
Another
Thousand
Why not use chopped strand mat and resin, in lieu of 5200 and screws to hold your core? That way it all dries into one solid piece. 5200 is flexible and the glass around it is much less so, increasing chances of cracking. Also: if anyone tries to cut into that bow later in life, they will get a surprise when they hit a screw. Not hating, just asking.
you got gel coat powder particulates all over the front lawn , vacuum that stuff up !
That’s gonna be a great boat when you’re finished with it, is it gonna be trailered or sit in the water?
Trailered :)
How did it finish
When did you buy it? I saw a different 22ft mako on fb market place that had a cracked hull for cheap. Is this the same boat?
What part of florida you located?
My boat is a 23 foot mako 1977
Someone one posted this on a boat restoration page. Everyone is trashing your work hardcore. They say you have no idea what you are doing.
Hey we are doing a restoration too!. i have subbed :)
I must have missed it did you name the boat
I thought the console goes on the bow in salerno??
Lol
That's a Mocking Bird, ...State Bird.
What was Taylor about to say at the end?
My GoPro died so I’m not really sure
Yeah you had on a Tyvex suit but I noticed flip flops on your feet?
Yea because the grinding was on the bow. No dust got on my feet.
Any plans for t-tops?
I personally don’t want to put a T- top because I love the space but we’ll see how well that goes by the end of a hot Florida summer lol
Except your brother of course
That was a mockingbird getting the cat because she has a nest nearby !!!
Check out Andy's videos from boat works today, amazing videos to show you how to do anything and everything for boat repair
That's a mockingbird not a Jay. ;-)
🙃☺️😀😁
First
For Taylor. Hot shower! As hot as you can stand, opens the pores and washes the fiberglass out. Works for me anyway.

Great DIY vid. However, I’m not aware of any law preventing anyone from wearing a skimpy thong bikini while doing it 😁
Yeah but you where wearing flip flops, itch itch itch
Omg they have no clue what they are doing they should have just added glass not that 3/4 ply wood. Or maybe close that big hole from the bottom and use that transom cement stuff on the top think it’s called SeaCast
Hope that’s not structural because there’s absolutely no structural integrity to matt fiberglass. This may be titled “how to fiberglass”….but not how to re-build a boat that’s gonna last.
6 thumbs down. WTF?
I always wonder why haha I think it’s the same people that continuously thumbs down because the video wasn’t even up for a minute and already had a thumbs down 😂
@@CheyenneLeeBehrsin Well, when your pretty like us......Ok. Maybe not me.
Yall need to cut the grass first 🤣🤣😅
Maybe a better mask is in your future, breathing all of that dust is bad for you, get the filters that have the two pink filters when they are clogged you will taste the fiberglass.
Don't you need a place to get out of the sun??
Wtf
Y’all fucking up that boat lol
To reinforce the bow and not have that piece of wood there ugly ass piece of wood you guys could just grind underneath and on top and then put 2 to 3 layers of 3 ounce mat on top and on the bottom.
Great project to do as a couple. Nice work, excited to see the finished product after completion :)
