Military Rib Boat Retube Of a 730 Willard ! (How to Build Tube Special) 

People often say how expensive retubing is. Having watched how incredibly labour intensive this process is I can't believe how inexpensive it works out!

This was a great learning experience. Tell the crew “They done good”.

I was totally surprised at how labor intensive this process is. It is always enjoyable to watch master craftsmen at work. They make the job appear so easy when in fact you realize considerable skill is required. Thank you for showing this process.

LOVE HOW THE OLD TIMERS TAKE SO MUCH PRIDE IN THIER WORK❗️💪💪💪✌️

the "sanding" you do on the edges to prepare for the glue is called "SKYVING" in the leatherwork business. We do the same thing on seams and to prepare edges for glue. Skyving also takes a bit of the thickness out of the edge so that the seams taper to a neat edge better. Amazing the similarities to the leatherwork that I do. I found this video fascinating. Thanks for posting Alfred!

Wow, Artist, Artisans, Over the Top Craftsmen, Extreme Professionals, A great video of amazing work, very interesting, ty, ty, TY.

It’s always a pleasure to watch a master at his trade,I hope this man gets paid really well he’s worth every penny!!

What an amazing job you guys did!. Very clean looking tube.

Beautiful work !!!!

Yes yes I would like one my son lives on Lake Huron be perfect for my boy

Supper high respect, high caliber craftsmanship.

Fantastic work guys.

Alfred, when you do a 'Chit Show' video, you are a real tease, but now you have shown us how you rebuilt the Willard, you have made a wonderful real-life documentary. I found it extremely interesting and educational, and I'd like to thank you and all of your friends for showing us how you do your work. You are all extremely skilled and I was surprised how tough these Hyperlon ribs really are - just a little bit better than the P.V.C. 'toys' we see in supermarkets - well a lot better. And you injected your usual Alfred Montaner fun into the film as well. There is only one thing I complain about now, not your fault, but the fact that I am not allowed to afford to buy one. Perhaps I might be able to steal one of those many inflatables that are invading Britain across The English Chanel on a daily basis (Joke of course) I know that you made this film over two years ago, but this is the first time I have seen it, but it is never to late to say thank you again.

I use to work for a company that makes rubber tank liners I worked there for a couple of months and they laid us all off..thanks for sharing the video is totally cool

Beautiful job!

RESPECT... Solid business man.

Woww super rib👍👍👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Best waterjet on the market on a very good RIB.

Some very talented people worked on this project . You all should be very proud . Would like to see a video on how they build the tubes new . Thanks for sharing ...

Doing Work .... Love it

one minute into the video. don't know much what to expect, and i like this guy. to the point - even if the video is 2 hrs long. but, whatever their end goal is, it is rather insane/ ''amazingness''.

Hola Hermno !! Me gusta tu vídeo porque me fui a las Islas cañarías en patera ilegal en el año1999 desde el Sahara norte de Africa me gusta este trabajo nos perdimos en el Atlántico.... Tres veces en patera .la primera vez en el año 1996 . Saludos desde UK 🇬🇧 a todos los integrantes del mundo saludos a los cubanos 🇨🇺

You guys are amazing that's a good job off you. This kind of work i really like. By the way I'm working in marine business for 25years In sales and maintenance for sea doo products in saudi arabia So I'm very intrested in your marvelous work. I wish i there with you. Hopefully in the future. Good luck guys.

NCC-1701 On the glass, Too funny!!

Hello Alfred,,, It was great to watch true craftsman's at work. I had no idea what was involved to doing the tubes. Like you said a lot of man hours go into doing one. I was stationed at Patrick AFB and would see the PJ's out in the Banana River using those boats. I am retired now and live in Talisay City, on the inland of Cebu, Philippines. I loved the the trip you showed around town. We use to go to South Beach to feel poor haha. Like when the video was made you guys when under lockdown we have the same thing going on here now. Bit scarey like you said to see what is going on back in the US. With COV-19 on the comeback in FL please you and your family and the guys at the shop be safe. PS the tug video was great!!

Hot hands once again

Amazing video, I feel like you'd be the best boss EVER! Nice craftsmanship, professionally done. If I ever win the lottery, I'll be one of your customers. Mike (From Canada)

Nice job guys! I need a delivery to germany😅

that was great , been waiting so long to see this:)

There’s no whey not to be expensive is hard work and accurately dun

Awesome job 👍. The owner is a Star Track fan. 🌌

Me gustó mucho el video El próximo en castellano si fuese posible ya que seguro que tiene una gran aceptación Muy bien trabajo señores Enhorabuena

Hey Alfred, I’m a massive fan of your channel. Regularly watch and enjoy your energy and enthusiasm on your reviews. I hope the manufacturers appreciate your effort. Great to see a truly skilled worker doing a great job. Have you taken on an apprentice to learn this skill. Our futures are in the hands of these skilled people and we need to pass on these skills to the youths of our time. Keep up the fantastic work. From Andy in Stirling Scotland

Skilled artisan at work, nice job!! Just thinking of all of the marine trades in and around Florida. Growing up in Tennessee, there's not alot of need for the marine industry. Sure there's many lakes but just not as much demand here and so instead of me working with boats, I make lighting for general motors and boat works on the weekend's lol

Beautiful video bro and wishing your business to continue going well

Talk about mad skills. Nice work, certainly not for the faint of heart. I lived in Florida for 34 years, now Virginia for 15, but I'll be back because I miss my family, fishing and weather. Don't miss the cockroaches though.

Nice Video Brother, Very Like..👍

Really nice job guys! Amazing boat! However I have a suggestion... You should install over pressure release valves. Think about it! ;) Greetings form Portugal. Stay safe!!!

Impresionante trabajo precioso flotador muy interesante y productivo el video ya que me dedico ala reparacion de neumáticas y me es de gran alluda para dar el siguiente paso para la fabricación de globos

good

This material looks to be the same material we in the trucking industry use for curtains and tarps , same labor intensive process.

Muy buen video gente. Me da risa la cara de Evan cuando se da con la cámara que lo graba jajaja, no le gusta se nota . Felicitaciones, y saludos desde Argentina

Great video. A fun shop environment and happy skilled guys made the project flow smoothly. I know where to reach out for or recommend when needing something crafted beautifully from Hypalon.

Fantastic work and craftsmanship you guys did re-tubing that 730. That Mercury was deep. Glad yáll got it up and running again. New viewer and new subscriber.

Alfred saludos desde NYC si algun dia necesitan un apprentice un aprendis estoy pa eso tremendo trabajo

Never knew such an industry existed. Would like to hear your story of how you became to own a business that does this. And don't lie-you get to work later than everyone else cause you the boss. I been there.😊 Retired now and almost 50. But still very interested in business. Maybe I should start a YTUBE channel interviewing successful small and medium size business owners. What do you think? That guys worth his weight in gold. Wow.

I would like to see the hold video great job fellas,

Hola muy muy bueno.saludos desde argentina..me gustaría que hagas uno en castellano así entendemos mucho más de las explicaciones.. saludos a todo el equipo de trabajó 💪💪

Awesome video. I was always interested in knowing how these type of inflatables are made. I always thought that all the tapes, seams, fixing points and other things were all welded together. I didn't know it could all be removed. What is the adhesive used? Thanks for sharing.

Your employee makes awsome job!!! It was really interesting to watch how he did this! A real professional! But please tell him to wear a mask while sanding that plastic. Greetings from Finland.

Mi sueño sería tener un bote de esos aquí en República Dominicana🙏

Grab a beer?? Imma need a whole bottle of wine

Fantastic in depth video! Thank you for sharing. What are the machines called you use to cut hypalon tape? and what is the drum sander you use? thank you!

Bro, where were you two months ago with this video? You would save me from lot of problems I encountered during my first DIY project on new hypalon tubes for my zodiac pro 500 from 2001. External look of my baffles joints to tubes are on your soul bro. I can send you few photos on e-mail. Yo can use it es example why you should not do it by yourself 😂. Excellent job you are doing, shame you are not closer so I could jump to visit you and pick up some ideas.
