  • Between three engines that haven't ran in years, an exterior that's been sitting uncovered exposed to the elements, and mildew everywhere... the Sea Ray finally gets the TLC it deserves! Phil Billy and I bought this 1992 Sea Ray 38 SS from the Lake of the Ozarks with the goal of completely restoring it to better than its original condition. Enjoy the first in many videos to come on this beautiful boat. SPOILER ALERT: It runs...

    This must be one of the best looking Sea-rays I have ever seen. Great looking boat.

      We think so too. Itll look even better when we’re done with the resto.

    Ben,
    This is just an idea but if you record some of the fix you might get more follows because people want to know how to fix things also. Just an idea. New follower.

    I could see the exhaust bellows split on the starboard outdrive. Check your outdrive thoroughly. Nice to hear them run.

    • @BoatRestorationbyBen
      @BoatRestorationbyBen  Před 3 lety +2

      The pipe connecting the drive to the transom? We ended up pulling that off to replace it. It was very much so cracked and brittle.

    • @Spiederia
      @Spiederia Před 3 lety +2

      @@BoatRestorationbyBen The main bellow is the one to be concerned with - if it's cracked or torn, the boat will sink. It's the upper, larger bellow that houses the u-joints/ driveshaft. I would recommend pulling both outdrives and checking everything and replace the impellers.

    • @BoatRestorationbyBen
      @BoatRestorationbyBen  Před 3 lety +3

      Impellers have been replaced. The main transom seal and bellows to be in decent shape. I think we will pull the drives at the end of this season and check everything as you mentioned.
