Intex Seahawk 3 raft mods!! Wood floor, electric trolling motor, sonar, more! 

by far this is the best Intex seahawk3 mod video.the canopy had me the most.

Most parts of the world are covered with water and there are many fish. The work of a fisherman is easy: choose the best parts. Best of luck. Keep it up man..

This is excellent, I’m looking forward to adding a lot of these to my Seahawk. It’s a nice and inexpensive fishing raft

I will be doing a part two of this video soon. I am taking her out on the water tomorrow (7/18/21) for some trolling, and bassin. I have done some more mods. I added a VHF radio and antenna, and I have a cannon mini downrigger that I am adding in a couple days, just waiting for it to come in the mail. I have removed the transom wheels for now, because they create drag in the water. I am going to remake them so they are able to swing upwards and out of the water. I will also be joining the to parts of the floor together with hinges to allow for more stability, and be able to fold together for portability. So please stay tuned for a part two

It fills up 6 times faster if you inflate it through the deflation opening on the Boston valve.

If you open the valve all the way and hold the nozzle of the air pump an inch away it fills in a third the time, you just have to close the first stage and pump a little more to pressurize

I made a wooden floor for mine, it is a nice little fishing boat to get into the smaller creeks around here with a trolling motor. I use an ice chest as a seat and being able to stand up and fish with the wood floor in is awesome.

Fantastic work for super mini boat!!

You are even more extreme than myself.🤣 I'm rocking a fish hunter 3 ,wonder troll full function motor and a depth finder. Had its first test today, i was not unimpressed.🤣 suppose i better work on a floor, bumpers for the dock, lights and a seat.👍👏

hey thanks for making this video it gave me some insparation to make my own and im thinking to add those transom wheels to my boat cuz thats a pretty useful thing to have in some of my fishing spots

Nice set up

Can you do a video on the wheel you mounted?

This set up is amazing imma do it

Great ingenuity!

That's awesome! I am inspired to get one now! Thanks!

Can you share with me an up close image of how the canopy is connected and what you used for holders? Also what is used to secure the cross board and what is it secured to ?

You should join the two parts of the floor together. You have two options: hinges or H-channel bar. For the H-channel to work, the floor has to fit tightly within your boat. I’m modifying a Sea Eagle 9 boat. Your floor should be stable whether you stand or sit in your boat.

Nice set up! Great video! I also got the Sea Hawk 3. Did the wooden floor last year, so much more stable. Gonna get the motor and battery this year. Your roller wheels are a great idea, never thought of that. Throwing it out there for anyone. I got one of those pumps too and its does the job. But depending where I go camping I take this smaller sized Rigid Shop Vacuum. Put the hose on the blower side, its Super fast and great pressure. And the take down is also fast on vacuum setting makes the boat as small as you can get it after opening it out of the box.

Here is my latest trip out in the intex raft (7/18/2021, STEILACOOM LAKE, LAKEWOOD WA). Wheels removed, and VHF radio added. Saw BALD EAGLES catch fish right in front of me on the raft. SO EPIC ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-moCSsWayE7k.html

Hey, what size are your transom wheels please? 8" or 10"? Thanks.

Good review

How did you extend the trolling motor cables to the battery in front? Trolling motor cables are usually too short to reach the front of even a small boat. Did you have to splice or attach connectors to other cables? Thanks, and thanks for the plywood answer.

You have almost the same setup as me, I haven't wanted to deal with the wood floor though for portability's sake. Can imagine it makes a big difference though

Quá tuyệt vời luôn bạn ơi! Mình cũng sẽ cố gắng làm 1 chiếc giống bạn!

try putting where you bought the stuff at like the canopy bro

Looks killer man!

Thank you very much for sharing it, a question: did you tie the middle seat table with something? or it wasn't necessary. I have the same model and when I came out the first time with my wood floor, sitting behind the floor folded in half, making it less stable. Happened to you? Any advice. One more time, thanks man

Hi, thanks for sharing. Are your launching blue wheels removable when your in the water? If not is everything ok?

Sick rig man!

Awesome build!

Thanks for the video. Where did you buy the canopy?

Nice! I just ordered one. Where did you get the canopy?

Badass

Great video! I probably missed it but what's the thickness of the plywood floor? Thanks.

Thanks for the prompt response. Did you inflate after the floor was in or before?

Thanks for showing your set up, Does the box keep the battery waterproof? Is it possible to get electrocuted from the battery if it got wet or something? Is it advisable to get the box? How many hours/or distance on the water would the battery last you? Im hoping to explore the rivers here in the UK.

Bello l'ho acquistato anch'io il gommone mi puoi inviare misure e che materiale è il pavimento grazie

Glad if u can share tutorial how to make the engine holder with wheels

Love it

Pls tell us more about the inflatable seat and the wood piece in the middle. What’s the info on them and how did u install the wood piece

menakjubkan...hadir bro...sub like komen

It does not seem that you inflated the bottom air chambers. Is that right>

Just bought one S3, planning to mod it as well! Liked the wheels idea, do you keep them in water also? Don't they cause drag?

Hey brother I also have this boat and am using ur video to mimic the mods on to mine. Could u tell me the dimensions of your boards? What kind of wood is it?

Hi what are yhe measurments on the floor please

Hey when mine pumped up when I put my electric trolling motor the transom sink a bunk it looks like there not enough air or something maybe is it to heavy for the transom it’s only a trolling motor

Two years later this motor is going strong ru-vid.comUgkxBZWgzfpS2Jj7JqIHyaSZjyVHNUgCKCBf Just uploaded a video of it after 2 years. We use it probably a dozen days each year on our small raft.-original review- We got this motor the other day and tested it out. I don't have anything to compare it to, but it seems good to me. It has all the features advertised - the motor housing is metal. We will see how it performs longer term and I will revise this review if needed. Some initial observations:- Good thrust, moves our boat around really well- It comes with a circuit breaker but no switch - so there's no way to kill the motor other than yanking the connection off the battery. I installed an inline switch.- The mount bracket is plastic and I worry it might break- There are a number of plastic parts that I worry about, but the most important ones are metal or some kind of composite

Wouldn't you want to put the floor in before airing it up? Then it just fills in around it.

What are the measurements of the floor pieces

do you have to air the bottom when you put that wooden floors

Did you buy the transducer mount for the trolling motor? It looks to be only a hose clamp.

Hi bro. I have just ordered a seahawk 3 and I am intended to make a floor just like you did. Is it possible to give me the dimensions of the floors? And is it any unconfortable to use two pieces of floor? Does it cuase any problem you know when you stand up while fishing? I didn't see if you attached them.

Where did you get the wheel mount?

So good brother

I know this video was done awhile ago. My husband would like to know how did you attach the wheels?

Do you remember the dimensions of the two floor pieces? It was smart to do two pieces just for the sake of transporting. Those floor pieces would probably fit in most car trunks.

Thats super cool!!!

Nice

I bought seehowk 4. Inflation with hand intex pump was same time like yours electric. You bought all equipment fot this boat. So, boat is 100$, and + equipment is 1.000$ !?

How long does it take to setup shade mate?

looks good bro im considering something similar

Very cool

Isn't it awkward sitting in the center and reaching directly behind you to work the electric motor throttle?

How did you fasten the board with the fish finder to the raft so it doesn't slide off?

Awesome.

What canopy is that?

Did you have to get your boat registered with the motor

dont forget to bring hand pump with you, base on my experience My seahawk lost its boyance and nearly becoming the second Titanic.

How long of drive time do you get out of a charge

Where did you get the transom wheels, which brand? Thanks.

Hi please I want to know if you're seahawk still good and working until now. Thanks

Where did you get the canopy

How do you attach that plank you have the fish finder on? Do you just place it there or glue or whaf?

How is the raft holding up?

have u ever try using 4hp outboard engine on it?

Don't put some air in floor? Under wood

Te dije of the wood? I got the seahawks 3

It looks good what you have done but those cheap inflatables are one pop from putting your gear on the bottom of a lake bed. I love my inflatable boats but not sure I would trust my stuff in a seahawk, the mariner 3 or 4 boats are soo much stronger. Stay safe man :P

What are the dimensions of your board pieces?

Ur wheels r touching ur boat

Floor dimensions please :)
