Watch as I restore an old fishing boat that I bought for $1,000! See the transformation from start to finish in this boat restoration video.
This week's video has been a long time coming! Matty Ice and his dad have been working on restoring a 1974 AMF SlickCraft for the last 12 months. This video is a compilation of all the work that has been done over the last year. Their goal was to build their dream fishing boat on a budget. The vision was to create the most efficient and stable setup fishing setup for some big water. We have been able to get out and hammer some Kokanee salmon and Trout on this boat and have been blown away.

The best part of this renovation is tht you had tht quality time with your dad and family to accomplish the dream of the boat. A lot of people think tht maintaining a boat and renovation is easy but it’s not. Great make over and hands up for the finish. 👍👏🙌

@sgray562 8 месяцев назад

Your pops helping you out with this project, just loving to be there is what I dream of as a father to a little one. I can only pray that I'm able to do the same for my boy sometime down the road. Appreciate how good you got it bro bro.

@chrischurch4551 19 дней назад

Awesome. I can tell your dad is genuinely super excited.

@timroberts69 5 месяцев назад

It's awesome to see a father and son working hard together and sharing valuable time together. What a steal for $2000. I felt bummed for you when the stern drive went.

I did the same thing with my dad when I was 19. We went in halfs on an old 18ft Thompson for $1300. Bought it at the end September and spent the fall removing the seats/cushions, carpet, engine cover and any damaged sections of the floor. No garage so we wrapped it for winter. Spent the winter picking out and buying new seating, carpet and other supplies. My dad made a new engine cover. I was working at a lumber yard so I got a good discount on the building supplies. Come spring we started on the flooring and covered it with a layer of fiberglass. Carpet, seats, new cushions for the bow and a new piece of tempered glass for the walk through windshield. Over the years we've made other upgrades and repairs but have always split the costs 50/50. It's not always about the money. Sometimes it's about spending time with someone and them passing on their knowledge. 19 years later and he's 73 but we still use it every season.

Great video !! I don’t know why it popped up on my feed but I’m glad it did .. watching a father and son enjoy time together is what we need more in America … I imagine you guys hunt together and fish but I’m sure he loved this project because you got to work hand in hand with him and he was able to see his son work like a man lol the man he created, he must be very proud … god bless and keep the videos coming … I will sub and watch your other videos …

Love what you guys did,totally incredible, I did a similar rebuild, the only difference was,I removed the I/O completely, glassed in a plug into the transom from both sides and added an Armstrong bracket, and added a 300hp outboard,and then had room for an additional fuel tank. Just didn't want to trust the I/O offshore. Great job,you should open up your own shop!! You definitely have the skills!!!

Very cool restore. My father bought a cutty cab 20+ years ago and it as never touched water as he was going to restore it. He got half way and then stopped. We tried working on it years ago and he said he wanted to do it himself, but it still sits. Now that his health is failing I think he may let us finish the restore on it so we can take him and my mother out. Thanks for the inspiration from one Utahn to another.

Raised in Oregon fishing across the state, now live in SW Texas and have been fishing 3 times in 10 years 🥺. Pretty pathetic, I live 40 minutes from Lake Amistad and have never fished it.

@thomasroy5833 8 месяцев назад

My buddy had exact same boat 20 years ago on Lake Superior(Duluth Mn). We did wreck diving and fishing out on Isle Royale. We trolled many many hours. I recall heavy weather and monster waves and huge lake trout! The old slick did just fine even loaded with gear and provisions for a week. Only complaint is low cabin roof. Many bumps on head(as you know). He developed outdrive problems with the OMC and couldnt find parts. He gave the boat to his nephew. Keep your eye out for another spare. He now has a c-dory with twin honda 40s. Another nice craft! You did a great restore. Enjoy.

@willberk2920 10 месяцев назад

Fantastic project, fantastic filming and naration, what a great dad and family. I run a 17' Boston Whaler in Jordanelle, Deer Creek, Lake Powell, Utah Lake, Bear Lake, San Diego off shore etc. I had to forfit having a cuddy space but decided on Center Console. I installed the same Garmin Echo that you did in July of 2023. Its incredible. I also have a 24' Maxum open bow with a 7.4L MPI with dual counter prop Bravo 3 outdrive. In my senior age I needed something smaller. I live in South Jordan. I'll be looking for you and this amazing restored Sleekcraft and wave you down.

I dig this. Im restoring a 1966 all Aluminum 18' cabin cruiser. It looks haggard cosmetically but i put a new Yamaha on it and it doesnt leak a drop. Fun on the water. Id put a 100+ watt solar panel between your rod holder and light bar to extend battery life.
