progress of building my 25 + 3 feet Carolina Center console boat 

Was laying in the hospital today worrying myself shitless untill I saw this vid, it took me back a few yrs thinking of the Chesapeake Bay and I have to say this boat is truly a DREAM. DAMN! WHAT A CREATION...

I believe the vessel was built with this wonderful soundtrack on loop, amazing outcome absolutely see myself destined for Mexico on a permanent basis. 🇲🇽🇮🇪

This video is f*ckin amazing you glorious bastard.

I don't watch many 16 minute videos but I was riveted, I would imagine the first time your backed that baby into the water was a special one. And the wood boat ride, looks like she is made to bounce like a Cadillac. Thanks for taking us for a ride on the process. It was a job documenting I'm sure.

I have always wanted to build my own boat, and thanks to you I am now certain it will never happen. You did an awesome job!

Man you just can't beat the look of the Carolina flare. Great job. She is a beauty. Love the stitch and glue method.

Your a boat building freak! This has to be the most beautiful boat I have EVER seen. Your boat is awesome!

As soon as I pick my jaw off the floor I might be able to make a comment. Wow you are so talented! What a masterpiece of a boat! Many congratulations to you sir!!!

Sr you are a genius. Without a doubt the best project of a boat on RU-vid. This is a work of art and has left me speechless. Only a genius can create something so wonderful, detail by detail. Anyway I would like to know how much time and money it took to create this masterpiece. Congratulations! For me it was a privilege to watch this video.

Man you made building that thing look very do-able, I'm not gonna say you made it look easy but it didn't look impossible, but I'm sure it's anything but easy and you are obviously highly skilled individual!!! I'm very impressed and slightly jealous of your beautiful creation, her lines and that big flared Carolina bow is just awesome, not to mention the build quality and attention to detail are truly impressive and it's throughout the entire build, even in those places that most people will never see like the bilge , the wiring, the console power door just awesome!!! It's just gorgeous and something I hope your extremely proud of!!! Hats off!!

Initially the plans called for a cuddy cabin with a v berth , but you made it a true center console , you put a beautiful big v8 evinrude outboard motor on it , it must be fast with all that power, It's sad that Evinrude is gone now

Once I hit the power ball I'm going to build my own boat. But knowing me that boat i build probably sink once it hit the water. Your boat build is every fisherman dream. Very inspiring.

GD man you are one hell of a “Boat Builder” or craftsman for lack of the correct term. This is next level and not like the other guys on RU-vid you knew what you were doing from the start. Wow wow I’m blown away you built an amazing boat my friend be proud of yourself and thank you for sharing. So you wanna build me one too😉

WOW !! You did a fabulous job. That boat came out beautiful. For one thing if you ever needed to look for a job you shouldn't have any problems. Boat builders should be knocking down your front door to get you to jump aboard their crew and check signed and you fill in the amount. Thanks for sharing. I will be watching this multiple times.

Very good build. Classic lines from my neck of the woods. There are more than a few Carolina boys that would be proud of a boat like that.

Great Job! So much attention to detail. My favorite is the automatic door on the CC head. Lol. Definitely a boat to be proud of.

I truly couldn't be more impressed even if the builder gave me this beautiful work of art The man has skills up the warzoo Love the boat love the building video and love the music good onya Captain great results cheers 🍻 olson

Awesome to see a project followed through to the finish. Nice job!

You are gifted! Enjoyed that very much!

MAD SKILLS! Great job! I am customizing a world cat 266, thought my project was too big. I am inspired. Thank you so much for the video.

You've got some serious skills, brotha! I've always loved the sheer lines of a Carolina flare.

for your first boat build you knocked it out the park! that's truly a great build. thank you for sharing.

I am not a big comment-er but that was an amazing job and the finished product is awesome. Great job sir!

Thank you for sharing the experience of building your boat! You are truly a master craftsman. People like you give me hope for this country. Thanks again and catch lots of fish!

Simply beautiful craftsmanship and a fabulous finished product. I’m totally blown away. Congratulations!

wow, what a beauty, and an immense amount of work to go with the pride of enjoying it, so rewarding, thanks for the eye candy!

Thanks for sharing, Peter. Excellent work and outstanding attention to detail.

I tip my hat to you!! beautiful work!!.you have every reason to be proud of your skills!!

Unbelievable. Builds his on boat, and comes out beautiful. Love the lines of the boat and the flair. I'm sure it was a proud moment when dropped in the water for sea trials. Congrats on completion of this momentous undertaking.

This is really amazing, to think of where you built this, under an overhang, it looks like a patio and this boat looks like it was made by the finest boat boat building company with all their high tech tools. It's amazing what a true craftsman can do. It doesn't matter where or what toys they have at their disposal, it's the knowledge, passion and experience that matters. Hats off to you sir

Nothing short of amazement. The pure talent and passion is evident. I can only imagine the satisfaction in building this yourself. You must be one proud owner. Enough said. 👏🏼👏🏼👍

Love the flare and the turn down! Beautifully shaped boat.

Wow this is masterful what a treat I will be watching it again I am amazed at the workmanship and every detail so well planned!

THAT is impressive........and beautiful. You are probably the only person amongst millions that has the skills to do something like this. Amazing talent. At your level is another guy in this world. Builds the impossible. Everyone check out .on RU-vid........ A handmade mini V12.Your vessel is a stunner...I did a presentation at my college about amazing craftsmanship. I got a 4.0 . You've amazed alot of architects. Thank you

Absolute Dream Boat... I have already been very inspired to do the same thing but your vid may have made it more of a reality. Your design and craftsmanship are brilliant. i cant imagine the sense of pride you must have from all the comploments, God has Blessed you Buddy with so much talent.

I cant believe that was built in the back yard

i just got my plans from bateau for my GS28. i cant wait to get started. i like your idea of using osb for the jig and then stitch and glue around it.

im totally inspired! gonna start a build with my dad this winter. cant wait to show him your build.

Damn you should make boats for a living. Looks like it came from a factory. Great workmanship/craftsmanship.

I got to say you are one creative and handy guy! Great job! I wish I had talents like that. Amazing.

Gorgeous boat!!! You have some mad glassing skills.

Your handsome vessel epitomizes the rewarding experience of timeless true hand-crafted workmanship in the style of Chris Craft's early days, combined with modern technology resulting what most would consider utter perfection. Your ultimate reward as captain of this boat is a dream that very few of us will ever realize. I hope to find here or in another post how she's performed for you and lessons learned (if any) from your experience and a detailed account. You have obviously built many vessels before this, am I right? "Keep the wet side down"

Wow just pain wow That sir is an amazing job. you are a true craftsmen thank you for sharing your work. Inspiring....

Absolutely beautiful. Incredible. Amazing.

Beautiful boat, superb skills

Wow!! Amazing! Beautiful Boat!
