We bought a $1,000,000 Navy SEAL Mark V Special Operations boat… and getting it back to the shop turned into a full-blown challenge. What should’ve been a straightforward haul quickly escalated — permits getting pulled last minute, mechanical issues on the side of the highway, and a race against the clock to beat strict state deadlines before everything shut down. This wasn’t just a move. It was a test of timing, logistics, and problem-solving at every step.

The shit talk between truckers is hilarious. It's like American Truck Simulator and a Call of Duty lobby all in one 🤣
Can’t believe I watched a 48 minute video of moving a boat and enjoyed every minute. Great presentation!
Hats off to Tim. He really deserves a lot of credit moving that beast.
Retired C-5 Flight Engineer. I Transported the Mark V boat on two different occasions in my 18yr plus C-5 career. When the setup is in the cargo box of the C-5, not much room is left. Even the Windshield is removed and the boat with windshield stored sits just inches below the 13 foot tall cargo box roof. One of the heavier loads transported in my C-5 career. Can't wait to see what you guys do with her. Good Luck gentlemen.
Thank you all for the support! We’ve got some big progress coming on the Mark V build/restoration, and we’ll keep you updated as we move forward. Stay tuned!
One hell of an expensive trip
I swear this felt like I was watching a legitimate TV show. Whoever did the editing and production, you deserve a raise. Those Escorts also did a phenomenal job.
That boat chugs gas faster than I could burn the cash itself.
Deserves way more views this was actually interesting
No clue who you guys are, or how you ended up on my algorithm, but that was an excellently edited engaging watch, can't wait to see some more!
I'm just about 100% positive I have worked with Tim the truck driver in Washington State to haul a komatsu machine with a blown up engine. I recognized the truck first. He's a great guy!!
It’s crazy you only have 3 YT videos. Document this and make a series. You could blow this up in no time!
I sure hope you turn this into a series. Just the build up of getting it to the shop alone without any of the usual YouTube BS has earned the like and subscribe.
So that’s why I was late to work
This is awesome. Please drop updates regularly
I saw this bad boy for sale at government auction for the last few years. I cant tell you how happy I am to see this get into the hands of someone like yourself who will document the revival. God bless, and best of luck.
Didnt expect to watch the whole thing but damn you killed it with video/editing
Finally youtube with good recommended videos
As a former C-5 mech I appreciate seeing the images of them sliding one in. You could fit six Greyhound busses inside a C-5. And the hayloft, the area over the rear door and behind the negative pressure doors was unusable space because it was too far behind the CG; it was larger in volume than the cargo hold of a C-130.
Instagram brought me right to this gem 💎 way to cool not to watch
