Nice build. It's called galvanic reaction which is why larger boats have "ZINCS", this is more common when in salt water.

Cool, thanks for the comment!

I like that you "raised" the deck height by mounting the 2x4 studs over the seats. Most guys just lay the plywood over the seats. good job

Glad you enjoyed :) thank you for watching!

Glad you enjoyed :) and thanks for watching!

Nice job! You could have just put a liner “barrier” under the contact points of the pressure treated wood. And the time it would take for that corrosion to happen to any real effect would be years. Drive on!

Did you not paint the wood with an oil based paint to prevent rot when it gets wet?

Nice video, get you m your self an impact driver for them screws

@diooutdoors 6 месяцев назад

That would be a good upgrade to the tool set!

@Dio Outdoors - Dude, PT wood is made using a copper laden solution, which causes electrolisys when placed on to aluminum structures. You'd be better off encapsulating non-PT wood with Polyester Resin or Epoxy Resin which will seal the wood and make it more rigid in the process.

@diooutdoors 7 месяцев назад

Yes thank you for the advise. I did change out the Pressure Treated 2x4’s for non PT. Unfortunately I came across all this information after making it all pressure treated :(

It’s definitely more expensive but building the deck out of aluminum is much better in the long run. I got a 60”x50” piece of .090 aluminum sheet for $135 to put a deck on my 16ft Jon boat, it was a drop so no cutting fee. When I sell the boat it won’t be like it was when I bought it, a bunch of soggy wood I had to get rid of.

@diooutdoors 6 месяцев назад

That’s a very good point! Dip you support the underneath of it or was is strong enough to support someone standing on it?

How much weight would you say is added to the front this way?

@diooutdoors 4 месяца назад

I would say about 70-80lbs. I can still pull it out and carry it around. That’s also without a battery, add a battery and it’s pushing over 100lbs. However I think this does a good job offsetting the weight of me in the back when I’m cruising around the lake.

@virgilproductions 4 месяца назад

@@diooutdoorsgood to know! I know I like my little boat because it’s lite…I want a casting deck but I don’t want to add a ton of weight at the same time 👍

@kentyler966 7 месяцев назад

In small boats weight is your enemy. Save weight where ever you can. If your plowing water evey place you go most of your day is wasted driving not fishing.

@kentyler966 7 месяцев назад

Sorry just noticed your power is electric. Nice old Evinrude 15 would make your boat Zippy!

@diooutdoors 7 месяцев назад

Yes I would love to eventually put a little 10 or 15 horse on there!

@isaiahpierce260 5 месяцев назад

Thats NOT a jon boat, its a v bow rowboat

@frankiannelli989 8 месяцев назад

If thats pressure treated , its a no , no.

@jordandieck8672 2 месяца назад

An easy way around it if you already bought the pressure treated is to drop $10 on a can of primer and spray paint and just paint everything that comes in contact with the boat.

@way75mit9 7 месяцев назад

Nice job Bro, but if you were to add a pedestal under your front seat your girl could ride a lot more comfortable, also try covering your deck with fiberglass resin to make them waterproof, and you'll never have to worry about the wood rotting !

@diooutdoors 7 месяцев назад

The pedestal is a good idea, definitely something I could add in the future! Thanks for the recommendations!
