If you can't afford the fuel you don't get a boat like that lol

If you're worried about mpg this isn't your boat, or really any boat other then a row boat

Yeah that sounds right it isn’t miles per gallon, it’s gallons per mile :)

Fun per gallon...

@@grahamNC83 smiles per gallon

@@UltraMagaFan I was just being sarcastic, but thanks for the response 👍

Hahahaha that’s funny tho my wallet feels it every time we go to Laughlin but well worth it

Gotta pay to play!

Hahahah

@@UltraMagaFan how dose that work, i know water in the combustin champer is not good, how dose it get to the exhaust

Waking up at the campground when I was little I would ride my bike to the ramp and listen to them for a solid hour.

One of the best alarm clocks ever made, just meant that grandpa had breakfast cooking on the fire

... Say...

I said the same thing before reading the thread ...just gambling no fumes ignite, and never fire up with houses close by before 8 was my rule...

454’s are V8’s

@@Redbird45 I was sarcastic…

Correct

Was thinking the exact same thing...

He is lucky no gas fumes

I'll try to do an update on it in a few weeks thanks for subscribing

Living on the edge..

First thing that came to my mind 😬

Yes you missed something. It wasn't cold start

@@Jimmy-mt4kn OK. Because the title and description is..."Cold Start".

@@RandyHoke did it sound like a cold start?

If you really want to wake the neighbors up, have the boat explode in fire.

@@tomsreviews238 I kinda agree, but if you know your boat it's kinda a land lubber kinda thing...here's the deal with that. If it was that big an issue out of the factory, ALL gasoline boats would be mandated timers for the bilge blower on the ignition switch.....no starter until the blower timed out. This cat knows his boat....no dicking with the throttle to get it to fire, and it hit slow idle right from the get-go....

@@imtheonevanhalen1557 it is not legal for a manufacturer to install a blower to the ignition switch, mainly because the blower is electrical, which causes sparks when it's in operation. The "proper" way (as suggested by U.S. and Canadian Coast Gaurd), is to physically raise the engine hatches, look and smell for gas/fuel leaks, start the blower, THEN start the motor. I know this, from being a licensed marine mechanic for 30+ years,,, PLUS, having lost a friend, due to starting his boat, without taking the necessary precautions (there was a fuel leak and the spark from the starter, ignited the fumes). I'm not being a "knit picker", just suggesting the safe practice to starting a boat.

@@imtheonevanhalen1557 Dude I’ve spent my entire life working on or around boats, both pleasure, early in my career, and commercial, for the last 20 years. To not crack the cover or blow the engine compartment is absolutely negligent, especially on a dated go fast like that one. Skipping basic common sense practices because (you know your boat) is laughable. That’s a cool boat though, even if it wakes up the lake on that pristine morning, very nice.

Why selling the boat?

Dan Koehler Main reason is there is no head on-board & no swim deck possibility .

@@darthdaddy6983 I see

Dan Koehler Oh yea I almost forgot .. If I were alone it wouldn’t be a problem , but I have 3 preteen kids .. so we need a toilet & swim deck.

@@darthdaddy6983 10-4👍 I got kids but there all older now. I have to pull motors out of my boat. I broke a wrist pin on a piston

Late answer but the water is not coming from the bores, it's being directed through the block and heads and channeled out through the exhausts.

Is actually a big hole in Starbucks side of the boat no blowers needed 😂

Some people need to blow up a few times before the lesson takes. I prefer to run my blower for a few minutes simply because I have an aversion to being in burn units.

Could have had the fan running before he started recording

@@SoldierMed68W you dont turn the Blower not fan off before starting. You would have heard it.

@@CaptainDayne Maybe, maybe not. I've had boats where you could heat it running and others where you had to see the light on to know they were running. A lot of it's where the actual fan motor is located in the boat.

@@ralphholiman7401 that boat you would have heard it. A 3 deck 78 chris craft with aft cabin no! But a boat like that thin fiberglass Yes you would have heard the blower.

Thunderstorms and big block boats cruising across the lake always make me sleep like a baby!

True.

Sounds pretty good to me. What’s your boat runnin’?

1999 formula 232, 496, 300 oval port afrs, port matched intake, howards solid roller cam, shaft mount rockers, 10.4 cr forged bottom end, fuel injection, lighting headers. 730 hp with lame timing. On a volvo dp drive, f9 props. Runs 75 at 6200rpm, cruse 40 at 2800rpm. Needs more prop but Volvo dp ant much selection.
