In this thrilling episode of B is for Build, the team embarks on a daring mission to resurrect a boat that has seen more drama than a Shakespearean tragedy. After a series of mishaps involving sinking, engine swaps, and a birthday surprise at the bottom of a marina, the boat is finally brought back to life. The engines refuse to start due to insidious corrosion, prompting a heroic effort to replace the starters with Marine-grade units sourced from Volvo Penta. With the starters swapped, the team sets sail on a test run to ensure all systems are ago.
But wait, there's more! Auto bidmaster swoops in as the episode's sponsor, offering a lifeline for auction vehicle enthusiasts. Meanwhile, Holly's generous support in providing high-tech displays and ECUs for the boat's engines is acknowledged with heartfelt gratitude. As the Fourth of July looms, the team hustles to prepare the boat for a grand celebration on the water, ensuring a smooth and flawless experience for their guests.
Back at the workshop, a flurry of activity ensues as damaged parts are stripped off the boat for repair. From faulty rear hatch doors to water-damaged carpets, every detail is meticulously addressed to restore the boat to its former glory. With the help of Fiberglass Coatings Inc., the team dives into the intricate world of resin and fiberglass work, showcasing their dedication to craftsmanship and excellence. The episode culminates in a triumphant moment as the boat's tabletop is meticulously restored, shining once again with a newfound luster.
