Deep Vee Skiff build 25hp 

I’d have to agree, for its size and use, it’s a crusher snd the best riding 20’ in its class 👊🏼. Cheers!

i guess i had that coming! hahah although in my defense, it's more of, i didn't check it before running... does that seem less of a f&*% up? cheers

haha yes Rishi! So stoked you're here!!!

Haha, that sounds amazing haha. I'd be lying if I told you I haven't lauched this boat a time or two with the 70hp on it! Cheers to old school Michael!

Haha, glad you enjoyed and yes… a project Pottcake update is coming up in the future!! I think you’ll dig it!

Dude! same here, Absolutely made my day Josh! i Look forward to seeing you around and your C Hawk! Shoot me some photos so I know what boat to look for out on the water! forrest.stunts@yahoo.com cheers!

So true and well said John! Simplicity is key! And haha, a gazillion hp is also pretty expensive! 😂

@@diywaterworld would love a video on the tiller conversion please

@@diywaterworld was out on my buddies Yamaha 242 yesterday, its something like 500hp i think. It's fun but heavy and twin motors eat up twice the fuel. I dont have a boat right now but man I'd be OK on something lighter with 1/8 the horsepower. Watching you makes me think I could smoke him from a hole shot with a homemade boat and under 50hp. But the ladies will all be piling on his boat because ya know it's nice and looks new and it's comfy. I think I just made a deal for a jet ski, idk we'll see how it works out. I appreciate you. Thank you for sharing your skills knowledge and experience

Thank you! It's definitely got more room then we're used to! Haha Cheers!

Thanks Juan! I couldnt agree more! Wait till you see the next vid! 70 hp!! cheers!

@@diywaterworld awesome man did you ever put out the next video I want to see that thing with the 70 I love the tillers

Kurt... I love the idea and would definitely consider... hmmm. And wow, those numbers are outstanding! Whats the weight of your setup? Is there somewhere I can see photos/vid? Cheers

Cheers to the great idea for a future video! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you Jake! Much appreciated!

good guesses David! And right on! would love to see how it does! Propping it correctly will play a big part too! cheers!

Thanks so much! We've got a couple lined up! And just wait until Part 2 of Project Pottcake!! Cheers!

Ideally you wanna a motor that’s gonna run in the high RPMs. Overpowering a boat leads you to spend a majority of your time in the lower RPMs which is bad for the motor. Too much carbon buildup. Marine motors need to run hot in the higher RPM range on a regular basis to live long and happy lives.

@@hidel308 .... And could actually imagine keeping revs up with a 200 on a pontoon?

SERIOUSLY?! Haha, that's crazy! it's gotten out of control. we recently spotted an aluminum pontoon (25 ft give or take) with big TWINS on back. guessing 200's or 250's. what in the hell?! haha. to each their own!

@@hidel308 so true! way worse fuel economy as well!

@@Mike-gw9yt i can see it now... kids: "Dad why do you pull us on the tube at 50mph?!" Cheers!

Haha yes! Watch the very end of the vid.. preview for PART 2! Actually put triples on it! HAHA cheers motomax!

Thank you so much for the comment and heck yes on the sub! Glad to have you join us! Cheers!

Cheers! So are we! 🤙🏼

So right! and i agree, that would be a slick/fun setup! I currently run a 70 hp 2 stroke... definitely way more power then needed! Propped for load/ still tops out at 38 mph! Make sure to checkout the next video to see it! Cheers !

Only one way to know for sure.... checkout the next vid! 😜 Really though, it DEFINITELY does not turn easy! haha Cheers!

Haha YES! Colin and Jaimie are the best! 🤙🏼 I hopped on episode 96 , building a big mold to repair one of the Catamarans. Then a couple after that. Such great guys And amazing channel! Cheers!

Heck yes!! Sounds like a cool build!! 💪🏼

Right?! Pretty darn close, it receding out with that prop pretty easy too. Maybe a 1” more pitch / newer prop , flat water and just one guy.... I bet you’re right on the money!! Cheers!

Hi there, great question. it's a 9.9 diameter and 10 pitch prop. And haha, right?! who would've thought?! Cheers!

@@diywaterworld Exactly!

Big cheers to that Michael, I always preach that 14-15mph is the magic speed! Fast enough to get somewhere... slow enough to not break the wallet! Cheers!

25 hp jetoutbard

I think you mean 2 stroke, 3 cyl. Great motors.

Pretty close Rama! Thanks for the guess!

Pretty darn good guess!! 😜🤙🏼 cheers Bob!

jet outbard

Oh man!! hahah, vroooom!!! 😜

Great guesstimate Hector! Thanks for the guess!

Ahhh, great point! Remarkably, it’s incredibly strong as it is ( although in this vid it is just in project phase) , I plan on finishing it all out with reinforcements. That’s the beauty of these older boats.. built tough! You can sit on the edges with very little flex, I’ve taken this boat through some pretty serious waves too ( stay tuned for part 2!) and it does really well/ holds up. Thanks for the comment and cheers to building your own boats! 🙌🏼

It’s like a Port-A-Boat!

i guess it all depends on what you're used to... 20ft could be big to someone that only has been on kayaks.... small to a yacht owner. 😜
