7 Outboards Vs. 1 Mechanic 

So about a year ago i got my first boat, started watching your channel. As a car mechanic i figured it be no problem to work on outboards. Yea i was wrong. But because of your channel ive been able to learn. In the last year ive repaired over 30 outboards, and made some cash doing it. So just wanted to say thanks. I spend more time now on outboards than on cars and never been happier.

Your new street name is going to be outboard whisperer.

I'm useless with repairing anything, don't own a boat - yet I watch these videos for some reason

Never tapped so bloody fast in my life good on ya mate keep up the good work 2nd

When I hear you say “I haven’t seen anything like this” while cleaning a carburetor we all know it must be bad since you have cleaned many on your podcast. Great job getting them all up and running and looking good.

Glad to see you're moving up in the world, it's the small youtube guy's like you that deserve it👍🏼👍🏼 Keep up the good work my friend

I started watching (and immediately subscribed to) your channel a year ago for your restoration work on center-console boats. But-even though I'm not a mechanic-I really enjoy viewing, listening, and learning from your work on outboards. This session was/is terrific, in every respect. Thanks so much for sharing your experience and expertise with all of us who are addicted to small(ish) boats, Keep up the great work.

Outstanding TBG! Your videos are informational and therapeutic seeing how you methodically troubleshoot the issues of these outboards and boats, and restore them to life. The Sternmaster products appear to really come in handy...I'm glad they provided the gear. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work...God bless.

Would love to see a detailed tutorial on the 25 Merc gasket job buddy that'd be great 👍

Great video you have shown me that I can work on outboards, and maybe they will run when I'm done, thanks for again.

I love your videos. I had boat meters all my life, I'm no mechanic. I've learned a lot just watching you diagnosing all these problems with meters making it look so easy. Keep up the great work.

You get so lucky with these motors. Every slightly questionable motor I have ever bought basically needed machine shop work. Wish I could just pull a carb off or replace a water pump. Geesh!

Love the repair videos! Working on our first boat motor now, a77 Johnson 115. You make it look easy...but I know that’s experience!

Love watching you return these boats and motors back to life! Also, I'm learning so much from your videos...keep them coming!

Enjoy them all, moving back to Florida and when I get there I will look you up for my next boat or kicker motor, your videos helped me fix my merc 15, and I can't tell you how much I appreciated it! Be well

I love learning more and it is a good reminder for me of a late friend and the things we did.Keep up the good work!

The difference between your old stands and the new stands is like night and day. You're going to have to hit them up for more. Great vid!!

You are a wizard man, love learning from these kind of vids

I’ve always owned small outboards. It’s fascinating to watch you be able to diagnose anything and fix it

You are incredible! We live in a throw-away society today. Good to see that there are people like you who still exist in this day and age. I enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for sharing them.

Awesome video! New to outboards - got a 2006 Mercury 15hp which runs fine thankfully but looking forward to learning how to maintain and your video is perfect for actually seeing various issues for first time - many thanks!

I wish you would post more often! I truly enjoy your work, and its well worth the time it takes to witness it :)

Love your videos, always learn a lot from you. You're inspiring me to be an outboard mechanic. Looking forward to your future videos. Stay safe and best wishes

Dang wish I lived in an area that I could come across the yammies like you!!! I just got my dad's 1976 9.9 Evinrude running like a top. Hadn't ran in 20+ years. Your channel gave me the motivation to get it going!!! Thanks!!!!

I like your multi engine repair videos. I dont even look for them. I see them and watch for entertainment. Thanks for uploading

You do a very good job man. Keep going that way, thank you for your passion.

I DO thoroughly enjoy these videos on motor repair! I just bought a 76 Starcraft with a "Series 402" Merc 40 hp motor. It's been raining here solid for 3 days since I bought it, but tomorrow is supposed to be the 1st of many nice days ahead and I have been itching to check everything out! The seller did start the motor when I saw it 1st time - (dry - I didn't like that!) so it will have water this time and hopefully the impeller is good - but if not - just will need to replace. I'm starting with just getting it to run up to temp and go through the gears and after that will determine if I need to do carb work etc. By the way, got the boat/motor/trailer package complete with depth finder, oars, safety equipment, bumpers, lights - everything - for just $700!!! I'm planning to completely refurbish and customize the boat to match my truck and all new graphics too! :-)

Awesome you got a sponsor!! I tell you what I have been looking for project motors (Boat, Generator, etc) in my area and I can’t find any! It’s amazing you even stumble on so many good deals !

This is a great channel, a lot of knowledge being shared. Thank you!

I'm just an outboard motor now and your videos helps me alot ..... thanks bro

Nice set of stands! Great job on the engines. Totally like your break down of your procedures.

Dude your videos are always fun and informative I'm so glad you got sponsored man good things happen to good people

You're a pretty fair mechanic! I learn some good stuff from your videos. And I find them interesting in any event.

As a boat mechanic myself I love your videos. Keep up the good work. Peace✌️

Great videos of the quick fix on those engines. Keep up the good work 👍

Subscribed! I dont know what's so fascinating about watching someone fix boat motors !

He explanations are so easy to follow. Not many people can teach well like this

This was awesome and super satisfying. Looks like business is booming. Keep it up!

Loved it! Thanks for making it.

You Da bess youtube channel, I would start to buy, fix and sell motors just from watching your channel. But I like staying home and do nothing for a living. Great job on the videos! man.

Why hasn't this guy got his own workshop. He really deserves one. Love his videos, and I don't even have a boat.

Great video, that 4-stroke Merc 25EFI "sips" fuel & gets great gas mileage, about double of a 90's Johnson 25hp 2-stroke that just guzzled enormous amounts fuel & oil.

Glad to see you back!

Great video man I always set my idles just a touch high to allow for in gear idling torque and on a triple I make my centre carb a touch richer just to help cooler morning start ups

Love these outboard videos!

Those motor stands are going to come in handy when you finally flip enough stuff to open up a shop! I’m excited to see where you are going with all this stuff....!

You are very good at what you do, and keep up the good work!

I am so glad you made another video.

Great videos man...keep em coming please 👍🤘

Love the vids man. The One-Armed Mechanic. Camera in one, everything else in the other. 💪 You should wear a head mounted camera.

Would love to see more comprehensive repair/maintenance videos.

Thanks again. Great video 👍🏽

Awesome video mate, keep it up 👍

Just stumbled across your channel, love it

Great video and diagnostics! You have a skill not many people have. Yamaha makes the best motors! 👍🏻🇺🇸

I'm 100% buying the all terrain dolly from Sternmaster. That thing looks awesome!

I wanna work on these with you and learn! Thanks for documenting these

Awesome work as usual. That Yam 90 will be running when you are a grandfather

Very nice thank you for showing it on you tube have a nice day

I love that old Dodge in the driveway!!

Nice work! You have the talent! Always boat motor jobs👍Your all set up with motor mounts etc… Hope you have a good year repairing 👍 B Deacon Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦

Holy crap ... You make it look so easy 👍

suggest that you get a 50g bucket for tank testing, using a hose to provide water can hide cooling issues (as you found with your recycling bucket) and it's supposedly better for setting in gear idle... great work, good luck!!! I miss fixin outboards

Did you fix all these in one day? Dayum you are the man

.great video's super mastery at what you do. Blessings to you and yours....
