Crushing a Boat with a BullDozer 4k Vid

What happens here

Focus on salvaging the electrical and control systems. This involves removing the throttle/shift control panel, the steering wheel, and all associated cables (including control cables) and electrical wires. These components are pulled through their respective conduits and connections are carefully severed. A simple claw hammer is noted as being insufficient for some of the more robust connections, indicating the challenge of being 'undertooled'.

Goal: Salvage the boat's control systems, including the steering wheel, throttle, and all associated wiring.

Tools and materials

  • Black Control Cables — Mechanical control cables for steering and throttle
  • Hammer — Dislodging components and fasteners
  • Pry Bar — Leverage to remove larger, more stubborn components
  • Red and Yellow Wires — Electrical wiring to be salvaged or removed
  • Steering Wheel — Component to be salvaged
  • Throttle/Shift Control Panel — Component to be salvaged

all the tools we were thinking of didn't think a hammer would be our main one you know I said this morning never know what kind of adventure to get into but holy crap Frankie well we brought all the tools we thought we were going to need to rehab a boat we didn't plan on salvaging one so we were definitely under tooled and only at the little tiny claw hammer we got to get this whole steering console to go back through here we just don't have enough tools I wish we had a sledgehammer you're good well we don't have enough tools to actually disconnect it and we got a pretty tight timeline these guys only gave us 10 minutes to be here and we've been here for 15 so what else we got anything big in the back of the truck and I can start banging this thing out right here one or the other I think if we break it there and there where's that hammer right here
