Custom Boat Ski Locker Finish EP #35 || Bayliner Bowrider 175

We built the latch system for our ski lover on this old Bayliner Bowrider 175. This had to be one of the easiest things we have done in this project. Now we are on to painting the floor cause it is still so ugly. Want a pretty floor that hides all the labor it took …

Ski Locker Fiberglass Done EP #34 || Bayliner Bowrider 175

We just got all the fiberglass done for the ski locker hatch. Now we have to figure out how we are going to complete the ski locker hardware to lock it to the floor. The ski locker turned out very well and was so strong even though we used two boards. This ski locker hatch …

Laying Fiberglass Down Filling Holes In Boat Floor EP #33 || Bayliner Bowrider 175

So we have to fill holes and put some fiberglass down to prepare the wood boat floor surface for paint. Glad to see this floor is coming together, working with fiberglass, expanding foam, and wood has been fun, but we are glad to be done. In a future boat, we get we know that this …

Boat Floor In And Radio On, Beer time! EP #22 || Bayliner Bowrider 175

We have been having fun being busy making our 2004 Bayliner Bowrider seaworthy. We have a floor with ski locker cut in, the trailer fits in the garage, and tunes from our kicken marine stereo. Now we are going to sit back and relax as we take in what we have done to our boat, …

Plywood Boat Floor Install - Chris Does What

Plywood Boat Floor Install EP #21 || Bayliner Bowrider 175

We install the new boat floor and cut in the ski locker today, nice not to walk on planks across stringers. We had to get all the rot out of the floor of this boat, did not take the floor out all the way to the edge of the hull. We used marine 14-inch marine …

Boat Bilge, Preparing for Fiberglass - Chris Does What

Boat Bilge. Preparing for Fiberglass EP #11 || Bayliner Bowrider 175

I think sanding Boat Bilge and Stringers is the most uncomfortable part of the restore of this 2004 Bayliner Bowrider 175. We don’t think that the new floor will leak water, but if it does we don’t want the stringers to rot. Fiberglass is amazing, but installing it has to be the hardest part of …

Boat Restore Budget - Chris Does What

Budget-Friendly Boat Restore EP #9 || Bayliner Bowrider 175

We go over what we think this boat restore will cost and what we have spent so far. The Mercurice 3.0 engine only needs a cylinder head to fix the issue. The rest of the thing in the project to restore this 2004 Bayliner Bowrider 175, though cheaper, will nickel and dime your wallet. Well, …
