    You better give Hunter a raise. He's fearless and hilarious.
  • @robc.2257
    "AHHHH IT'S COMING OUT AHHHHH" !!!! Hunter.... Thank you Sir, you absolutely made my morning even though I spit out my coffee!
  • @mrben6573
    I keep seeing these forgotten sunken Lake Powell and Lake Mead boats in pictures on the news and stuff like that, and I kept thinking "I'm sure the hulls are still fixable. Someone should drag these boats home and resurrect them." You guys are actually doing it. Totally awesome.
  • @othoapproto9603
    The pride in these people running unsafe equipment on the road, endangering families on the road, is stunning.
  • Irony is, Matts recovery rescues Jeeps from waterholes and Fab Rats rescue Boats from dry lake beds-
  • @detroitdiy
    Hunter deserves a badge of courage! Not sure what the dirt removal did, the rooster tail of dirt Paul was shooting in 2 wheel drive refilled the boat. You guys are awsome. So cool that the original owners have been found, cant wait to hear that story. That tape deck has some AC/DC in it. Highway to hell.
  • @gman9543
    Would love to hear the backstory on the boat from the owners. Always good stories on the lake.
  • @joeh88
    I haven't been this excited for a rescue in a loooong time! Living in Vegas and being a Lake Mead go-er for 20 years, this really grabs my interest! There's tons of old jet boats ready for rescue here! Can't wait to see the ole gal run again!
  • Merlin’s Tow Pig is indeed a Beast. Thoroughly Enjoy Merlin & His Channel, JetSki Jimmy is a Legend in His Own Mind 😅
  • @marksmith7147
    Brilliant, you dig the boat out by hand, and then Paul refills it in two wheel drive 😂
  • Paul, welcome to the Senior Moments Club. You did indeed notice and even name the hot foot in a prior video...
  • @Kevin-ti3rz
    I love it . Y'all are cleaning up the area and getting something you can fix to have fun with your family and friends. Plus the adventure of it makes a great show , living life right and having a good time at it
  • @RG-ce5hj
    Laughed so hard when Hunter was in that boat with the mice running out! 😂😂😂😂. Thanks Hunter!
  • And the tour Boats through huge waves. I’ve personally see them swamp and sink smaller Boats. 👍👍👍👍🙏
  • @user-kn6dk2el7y
    I'm 83+ and know life is full of fights. I think you are doing the right thing by picking up the gauntlet on this one. He is such a bully and hopefully down the road his department will realize he is giving them a black eye, a bad reputation. Best luck to you all and your show, I love watching all of you! Bob
  • @vernowen2083
    I rescued a sunken sailboat from a lake in the early 80's and I can tell you that the job ahead is going to be much more than you expect.
  • Hunter doing battle with the mice was worth the price of admission. You'll have to build him a got rod
  • I was rolling laughing at Hunter seeing the mice 🤣🤣🤣 no way I would've stayed in there!! He's a better man then me!!
  • @GO-xs8pj
    Thanks for cleaning up the lake. I can't wait to hear that ski boat's engine come alive again. My family had a similar boat when I was young and we had endless happy hours down at Lake Havasu.
  • Merlin’s tow truck is badass. Happy to see people cleaning up things like this. Hopefully the fiberglass is still structurally sound.
