Thought we lost you there for a second! That thing has got to move! We love these wild builds! Keep ‘em coming! 🤙

@diywaterworld Год назад

Haha, thank you guys! I've definitely missed sharing projects with everyone these past couple months (i promise there's a tone in the works and uploading soon!) but as you know, these vids are a Full time job at times and well.... life has been busy and RU-vid hasn't been high on the priorityy list. On a related side note: Big cheers to your Channel, I just checked it out and really dig it. You've got a new sub! Cheers Andres and Ali!

2 of these and a bridge deck would make a sick cat

Looking good, been waiting to see this one! Using my 2 smoke Yam 9.9 I get 26mph (loaded w/beer and 55#'s of dog) on my 1973 14' Cricket build from 2021. The Cricket was a sub-$300 FB Marketplace find - boat, trailer, and 15hp Johnnyrude. Will make a vid with/from stills of that boat soon. Currently building out a 12' tri-hull (think Sears Gamefisher clone) that should handle chop a little better, she gets 24mph with the Yammy. Both are built with 'expedition/camping' in mind - i.e. open floor plans, to be able to sleep aboard. I love a small efficient fun boat - especially when they are cheap! :D Looking forward to Part 3!!!

@diywaterworld Год назад

Right on! These sound awesome and super functional for your intentions. 👊🏼. I just googled the cricket and found yours on microskiff, it’s super cool! Good luck on the new build, would love to see it when it’s done! Cheers!

That is one slick boat!

Favorite channel!! You have inspired me to get into boat building and I'm now 2 small skiffs deep and never turning back!!! Love the channel keep it up

Thanks so much Nathan! Glad you enjoy the vids and thanks for the channel love!

@Greenwashedhipppie Год назад

Pretty cool. I want to see a super small hydrofoil boat. That would be cool.

@leaveonlywake Год назад

Search YT for it. There's one that a young guy made in Sweden or Denmark IIRC, as a school project. Good results, a good bit more engineering is needed. :)

@diywaterworld Год назад

Haha, yes that would be cool for sure! Perhaps one day! I’ll have to put on my thinking cap for that one! Cheers and thanks for sharing!

@Greenwashedhipppie Год назад

@Life at the Waterline I believe I have watched all the diy videos. Waverider in Australia is the only company that makes one that's not ridiculously priced. I assume no one makes in the US due to liability. I'm sure someone would forget to pull them up and crash into a sandbar.

That's a cool one man. Glad to see you building again. Maybe I can come down sometime and help out.

@tommckinney7977 Год назад

So glad to see you back. Love these builds. So inspired I'm going to have to do my own. What size of ply and what grade did you use for sides? What are you thinking for the tops of the gunnels? Was going to try splitting some drain pipe and sliding that over as a mold on mine then glassing over that. Might be faster than a ply shelf

@diywaterworld Год назад

Hi Tom, thanks so much and thanks for the question. The sides were made out of super cheap 1/4 sande ply. Not the best for boat applications but…. Considering we’ve laminated both sides and they will be completely sealed / never drilled into / compromised …. I’ve had great success with this wood. :) For gunnels , I’ve been really split. I love that idea / style with pvc or water pipe insulation, very easy and functional. But… I’m leaning a lot towards a wood cap ( I’ve got some cool pieces that are hardwoods and wood look slick). Time will tell haha! And right on, stoked to hear you’re inspired to do a build! Definitely share / update , I’d love to see how it goes! Cheers!

Хорошая работа, хорошее видео, которая вызывает уважение!!! Какие размеры лодки у вас получились?

@neaptidevlog3732 Год назад

Man good to see you back bro. 🙌 I thought you died or something bad. 🤔 didn't see you for months. I was a bit concerned. Love this channel man and sick vids 👌 🙌 👍 😎 EDIT: What is that ryobi tool called you cut the glass with man??

@diywaterworld Год назад

Thanks so much, yeah that seems to be the shared consensus... I had a few folks reach out wondering if I was lost at sea on a tiny boat adventure. :/ But all is good, youtube requires a lot of attention and priority on my end for the way I try to engage and share and honestly the last couple months has been extremely busy on SO many levels of life. Regardless, I apologize for getting folks worried, I've missed sharing and engaging with everyone and I'm stoked to get back into the groove with uploading these last couple months of builds / adventure. Cheers!

@dirtyhoegradingco1746 11 месяцев назад

Give us some measurements, how wide did you leave the hull, height of plywood at each end

@harrycash8713 Год назад

It's that outboard short shaft?

@waterassassinfishingbuilds6122 Год назад

So real question, why not through bolts instead of screws??

@hiimstacie1810 Год назад

im currently building a custom 1989 chaparral 162 xl about 700 pounds possibly 600 being i gutted the whole boat for more room what size motor would you go with I have a 115 ,1975 Evinrude but it is a manual tilt and I think it's a bit too much for this 16 foot boat do you think a 50 or 60 would push it without having to max it out or idk i'm new to boats lol

@diywaterworld Год назад

Hi Stacie, I think if you build it bare and light enough you’ll have no problem scooting around with a 50 hp motor. The old evinrude 2 cyl 48 spl , 50 hp , and 55 hp are all essentially the same motor and great candidates for a budget motor and super reliable / strong if you find a decent one. Good luck with the build and keep us posted!

@hiimstacie1810 Год назад

@@diywaterworld thanx that is a big help and I will I am going to post the videos of the full build as I go. right now I am replacing the stringers and floor and I stumbled on your videos and realized you are doing basically the same so I figured your probably the best person to ask for advice . love your videos by the way

pretty significant crack in the boat at 0:42 :/

Hi Anthony, must be something that looks like a crack in the vid. There definitely aren’t any , at least not yet 😅😂
