well here's the problem with our coolant there's a crease in this tank and it broke
right there it's just thin plastic so I think the new tank will do better looks
like it got suction on it draws itself in so Anita now now I drilled a hole through there
so it was not air pressure that's a weird looking Dent maybe I did that shoving it
over in there new Tank's a little smaller but it's going to be a better fit for the
spot and it's a lot tougher there's something very satisfying with butchering one of these
new fuel tops unfortunately a three-quarter inch through hole was the smallest I could
find in town ah it's gonna be hard to get in there but we can make it happen
plastic cobwebs yeah and that will go welcome to sending vessels eager and another gorgeous
sunrise and man life is abundant we are coated bowed a Stern with mayflies and not a few of them
lots of them look at that it is just solid down the boat today so today they'll settle
in tonight and tomorrow they'll molt and leave their little skeletons everywhere
and then they die the next day leave their little corpses everywhere and then you clean
them up yes you can try shooting them away but when you're the only boat out in the lake
you're where they're gonna come back to look at that that is just solid but the part of the house
stays relatively free they mainly cling to the outside even though I got all the windows open
they have wind blowing through the Pilot House helps a lot keeps them down inside of here this
is what they do during the day see this is his uh access code that he came out of the water with
and he's molting that off he'll dry his wings out here and he'll be ready for the big orgy tonight
skeleton behind stuck on a lot of people said oh get a leaf blower and get rid of them now they
attach themselves pretty dang good see that yeah he's on there so they don't get blown away easy
so you just be patient with them for a couple days and then you wash the boat off and they're
quite tasty too um all right this is it the party has started every once in a while you see them
pair up just for a split second and that's it brace yourself baby
oh it's reverse threaded that makes sense this bolt gate connector that
way the fitting just makes it tighten up more
gasket sealant help it out
it's real effort to make yourself turn it the wrong direction that's gonna do fine lug
at this end put a fitting in this end we'll make this stupid cap into something useful
there I just love pecs now it's hard to fill this thing back where it sits so I'm going to add this
tube to it so that I can fill it from up above through the emergency escape hatch there you know
I wonder how many warning labels there has to be before people just stop reading them all together
mine was a long time ago and a little vent hole right in the top where it won't slosh out but
it'll allow water to come down this tube give it a test that's good they even let
you see the fluid in this can so I'll be able to monitor without too much trouble
so the coolant that leaked out on it just ran down the hole and into the
bilge here and collected right down there and we turned the sump pump off so I could keep it
that's what I'm gonna put back in the tank
this is really handy to have security cameras on the boat
it's right there I could see the level in that tank down below that
ought to be enough leave room for expansion so that's it for this video next up we're going to
upgrade the engine from 12 to 24 volt because we want to make more power going down the river
right now we're sitting outside Russellville Marina Russellville Arkansas on lake darknell
and we leave here October 15th if your crew means you've formally been on the board this
boat helping out this is the time to write me if you want to be on that trip and if you're
not crew already and you want to be this is also the time to write me send me an email at
SV Seeker ymail.com hopefully we can get guys that can have two weeks available to them and
you'll be driving a truck alongside the river or you'll be riding on Josh's boat or you'll be
on Seeker but you'll have those three duties and then we'll be at the helm probably three
four hours a day easily so you can expect a lot of time behind the wheel going down the river anyway
right now I'll send you a schedule and all the details I need to know about you get back with
me and we'll select some new crew hope to see you on board Seeker oh what'd you make today
too send us your photos of your projects svseeker ymail.com share the inspiration thanks guys
