I wish my lady was this enthusiastic about my projects

Me being a diesel technician for 30 years I respect a lady who can help around the shop. Well done 👍🏻!!

That guy got the best deal for his wife. What a ray of sunshine, so enthusiastic. I wish you both a blessed, and happy life together. Nice team work.

This mechanic wife has got an idea with spanners, for sure. What a great partner to have. So useful and enthusiastic

[frankbicknell]

It makes me so happy that your wife is happy and helping you. Mine just yells at me, never smiles.

Boat terminology lesson #1: the "window" above the bed in the bow is a hatch. Also, please run the bilge blower for about a minute or so every time before starting the engine and leave it running until the boat is underway. A small fuel leak in the engine bay will cause an explosive mixture and blow your boat to toothpicks on startup (happens way too often). The blower will clear out this explosive mixture. Also, always use marine rated parts (not local auto parts store stuff) as they are certified to be non sparking for marine environments (again with the blowing up to toothpicks problem).

The boat is cool and the husband wrenching is cool dude stuff but what makes these videos great is the wife. She is just so happy and optimistic. Her energy just comes through the screen! You guys rock!

[peterleiza]

I will say my wife is also my assistant mechanic my junior Carpenter and my Apprentice plumber. She is very much like his wife and that she is always eager to learn something new and help the team effort to fix whatever life brings in front of us

[johnmitchell]

You have to love a beautiful lady who wields a wrench and knows what toraque is! Hold on to her, she's a real keeper!

[talexb]

I enjoyed this video for a number of reasons -- the biggest one was that you worked as a team. In any relationship, that's the gold standard.

Also, this lady is a ray of sunshine. That's contagious enthusiasm right there.

[fatherguidosarduchi]

That’s a marine cam in the engine. So glad to see that your wife is 100% into this. Your a lucky guy to have such a happy chipper wife. Take care of her. She’s a keeper.

A perfect example of " one man's trash, another man's treasure"
Fantastic video ya"ll

Hey Guys My name is Edwin I served in the US Navy and Coast Guard. My advice to you save the second unit. Invest in re-building it. Keep it as a back up spare, just in case if needed in the future. Also once you rebuild it, you can always remove the one you purchased, for preventive maintenance. In other words use one remove it, then install the other one, and so on.

The boat for $5k is a good deal, but a good used Bravo 3 for $1250? That's a steal! A new upper gearset for a Bravo drive costs $2500 in parts alone, not including labor.

[shawnp]

you two have great chemistry and are so lucky finding projects like this

[howardcooper]

My wife and I went on CL and found a pontoon boat for sale for $1000. The guy selling it was over his Dads estate. When we showed up to buy, there were like 10 other people that showed. So the seller put 1 yes and a bunch of No’s in a hat. I was the first to pull and we pulled the yes. Outboard motor on boat only had 8 hrs on it and the boat was awesome. Best deal ever got on CL.

[FVG_alex_garcia]

Lets just put this straight.
That guy is a lucky blessed men.
He has everything he needs to face life.
God bless you both. Stay happy

[jorgeflores]

Where did this guy find this angel, if I would have brought this home my ex would have just nagged and talked crap because it wasnt brand new. I appreciate woman like her so much, too bad theres so few

[bobbubba]

Love these two. Especially her, so infectiously enthusiastic. Very resourceful couple.
