Welcome to chapter 7 of the top gun porta jon build! The top gun name lives on now that I've made the transition to Brigade Boats as the Porta Jon 12 ft portable jon boat project continues!
In this video, I will tackle the aluminum floor system portion of the build. This video is a step by step walk thru of how I completed this portion of the jon boat project. Video includes overall project goals, materials needed, tools used, layout, framing, foam installation, sheet aluminum installation, as well as some tips and tricks along the way. Hopefully you can get some use out of this video or you may find it quite helpful if you are having trouble sleeping at night. This video may help you build one of the baddest aluminum floor systems in a jon boat out there, or help put you get rest if you're having trouble sleeping. Either way, enjoy.
Talking to you on camera helps me not talk to the voices inside my head. Thanks for watching, hope this helps someone with their project!

My father just gave me a boat he has had sitting for a long time and I’m gonna be using your videos as inspiration to take it from a 1980s lowe bass catcher to a 2024 Lowe Monster hunter. Love all of your videos dude. Keep up the good work.

What do you call that aluminum channel you used on the floor of the boat? I was trying to search for it on TBN but couldn’t find it.

@t-outdoors7208 3 года назад

Where you get the side rails? Thanks

@jonathankubler6053 3 года назад

Great work on the framing and floor! Will that styrofoam board hold water when wet on the floor vs a closed cell foam like the pink foamular board? I've been looking to do my floors in my old 1648 Landau, but have been looking into the different foam used when I found this video.

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 3 года назад

The pink stuff is great, I've actually been using the green foam from Lowes which is supposed to be even better than the pink. Problem is a can only get it in.one inch which is too thick for this boat.The white rtec is coated but when cut it does expose the ends. I used it in last build, it got swamped, no issues. My thought is if water gets in it won't stay long, and foam should not make contact with it for long. If so 99% of the surface of foamis protected, minus the ends. For me, I'm not worried, minimal risk to get height I need. If your boat is constantly sitting outside or left with water in it often, maybe go a different route. Then again, if that's the case I wouldn't invest much in a build because it will get trashed anyhow in the weather.

@TaylorMadeOutdoors 3 года назад

I’m sure you’ll explain it in a later video, but are you planning on doing a carpet or flooring of some kind on top of the aluminum? And how are you going to attach it?

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 3 года назад

Sea Dek. It comes with 3M adhesive backing.

May I asked what the black top rail cover is called, and where can I purchase it at? I have a old 1990 Lowe big Jon that was a rental at a marina. You can imagine how bad the top rail is dented and beat up. I’m so glad I came across this video because it’s exactly what I have to do to my boat. Great informative video. Thank you for your help.

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 3 года назад

I'm not exactly sure what your are asking. That boat is factory, just painted. The rail I tie my framing into is just angled aluminum as is everything else.

Which electric outboard you running on your 12’! ePropulsion spirit 1.0 or ePropulsion navy 6.0?

It's designed to run both. Battery compartment in front deck for the 48v to power the Navy and keep weight distribution proper. Or remove Battery and run Spirit. Also the option of running the Spirit with the Navy battery as an external back up battery.

Anthony, I either missed it or my reading stinks lol. But what thickness or gauge is the sheet aluminum you are using?

Any issue with mold in between the foam after everything installed

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 2 года назад

Not that I know of but if I planned on constantly having water inside the boat, I would have built slightly different. If it cannot breathe and dry, channels are blocked, or water in it constantly, expect negative consequences.

@thomasneal7126 Год назад

Do you mind sharing what width and thickness that hat channel is? Thanks

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats Год назад

i believe it is close to 1/8 thickness and about 3 inches wide. Sorry im on vacation or I'd measure a piece. It's been a while since i did this and only used hat for that one project.

@bobthebuiler3245 3 года назад

What is that edge around the lip and what exactly is it for?

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 3 года назад

It's put there to tie all your framing to for the decking. Otherwise there is no way to secure your side to side framework

@bobthebuiler3245 2 года назад

@@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats thank you. Do you have a video about how you put that in? I dig around but didn’t see anything.

@duraluminum 2 года назад

So I've watched people do this before (level down) when working on a boat. For that to work right you boat has to be perfectly level to start with. The best thing to do is just measure off your existing seats while checking to see if the seats are square with the transom. Everything should work off the transom.

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats 2 года назад

The boat is level. I'm building it on a custom boat stand that is level. On a 10 inch piece it would honestly be pretty hard to get to far out of level without noticing it by eye. I'm not sure what your referring to in the video as it has been a while. I rely more on leveling down to make a mark as a plane. Then using a square to ensure it's a 90 degree upright. The top horizontal for back and front deck were measured off the bow and transom, planning down square should give you accurate return. This boat was made in the 70s, nothing is square or even, hard to go off of much in it thats existing.

@duraluminum 2 года назад

@@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats using the square would be how I would do it ...off of the floor ribs. I guess I have watched other people use a level on the front of the boat not realizing that the bow of the boat actually starts to curve upwards. I guess I shouldn't get so picky as most boat mods actually turn out pretty nice looking even if they aren't exactly perfectly built. Thanks for responding.

@danielsplayhouse3804 Год назад

Instead of rivets wouldn't it be better to weld it in for better strength and structure?

@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats Год назад

This is a DIY project. If you have the abilities to weld, do it. I've never had an issue with rivets because I do them properly. Welding is welding..rivets are rivets. Most guys n this platform watching my vids aren't trying to be welders or buy allthat equipment. I do have a welder now but did not at the time of this video. I will complete this boat using rivets though because my audience want to see how they could replicate what I do from a diy standpoint.
