I Bought a Cheapest Shetland Family Four On The Internet | Part 1

Hello Everyone,

Thank you so much for the continued support in the previous videos that I done restoring the Shetland 570. Sorry that that has been put on hold for the last 3 months. The final video of that restoration will be out very soon. But my attention has been solely on this boat for a little while now so please enjoy me restoring not only another boat but another Shetland. Thank you all again.

This is a Shetland Family Four, and I had the opportunity to buy it for a very good price based on the amount of work that needed doing. I plan to do all the required work and get this boat back on the river for someone to enjoy for the summer so if this is something that interested you then please stick around.

9:28 just a theory, some of the white caps have popped off over time, the previous owners have noticed the screws have rusted and replaced them as a when the caps fell off?

Great project 😎⚓️🛥️ I am doing a ski boat project as well as lots of others 🤣

I am looking for the same boat atm, I want to gut the whole thing and modernise it to my own taste, I will never sell after the project is finished so can go mad on it.
Subscribed to your channel as I can see myself learning a lot from you.
Ps I’ve never fixed, piloted or owned a boat I’m hoping YouTube will be my right hand man.

Have you checked whether the boat is dry? If it has not been done before this boat is water-logged for sure. The best way to check is to remove table socket in the cockpit but I can see yours has been sealed so you can cut the hole out inspect the boat under floor and install new table socket later. The boat is filled with foam and if waterlogged the foam will be brown . Ideally would be to cut the foam out to bottom of the floor (water usally sits at lowest oart of the foam). I did restore couple of Shetlands F4 and they are always waterlogged.
