Tuggy Sandbox Boat Build goes Full Send (BUSTED) 

You created every kids dream that ever had one of those . Everyone got your concept. Including the water cops. Well Done

Wish all Fish and Wildlife cops acted like these ones did. Great video. Deserves more views, more comments, more likes.... New sub here.

One of my buddies has been driving around Lake Michigan in a very similar tug boat sand box, since 2010... Since he had it registered, (and it also had navigation lights, a portable radio, horn, oars, etc) the Coast Guard did an inspection, and gave him a vessel approval sticker to take it out on the waterways. He has been enjoying many years out on the lake with it... Although yours is way faster because he only has a trolling motor on it.. Great video. And wishing you many great years out on the water with your cool little boat.

If someone had a lamborghini yacht on the lake. I think you would have gotten all the attention That's a pretty cool Little boat

Finally some decent cops that are actually concerned about safety rather than writing tickets.

Please don’t make us wait 2 years before the next video, this was seriously entertaining 😊

Ths fact it has nav lights but didnt have a bailing bucket or paddles or rope etc was hilarious 😂 Upgrade ideas - add small atv battery up front and wire up a tiny bilge pump and attach hose the outlet hose to motor mount to spray out the back...save ya some pumping at least untill battery dies. -Can also run wires up to nav light inside "roof" part to hide the wires and make light functional for when it starts to get dark. - rivet on a paddle clip/holder somewhere to hold manual bailing pump just to get it off the floor and out of the way - Wire up loud electric horn beside the nav lights and hide wires the same way...loud horn tiny boat = funny - collapsible paddle or just a really small one to match boats size and so it doesn't take up too much space - 2nd paddle holder to actually hold the paddle. -5l Jerry can for extended fuel range

Next video needs to be 10hp motor, sequels are so good for retention and we all want to see this thing plane out 😂.

Lil tip from a dinghy sailor here: horse feed scoops that has a flat side are GREAT for bailing!

We definitely need more tiny boat

The bailing bucket should be a child's sand castle bucket. Keep the theme.

first video I've ever seen from you guys and I'm a Canadian my self ahaha absolute luv ur channel defo will help my mind of inspiration

I love it! Genius. When I was a youngun we were at a party at a lake up in the woods. It was May and the water was freezing. My buddy backed up to the lake and launched his boat using the reverse braking technique you show out of the back of his truck. Only problem was the boat went out into the middle of the lake because it wasn't tied off and no one in it! He had to swim out in fifty degree water to get it!

This is like Bob and Doug MacKenzie meet Red Green.

This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen. I love it.

Next idea a kids pool submarine ? Take 2 kids pools put them together seal it & call it a semi submersable craft of sorts. Extra points for a conning tower.

Your launch is the reason women live longer than men! Legends!!!!

Rare that small channels output good content like this. Keep it up and quit your job!

That's the funniest and most awesome thing I have seen in a while!

8:40, the funniest part of this video! Enjoyed watching this creative adventure.

You made it fun for all ages.

That was awesome! I just got the same outboard and used it on my canoe today. Your boat looks like more fun though!

Followed when i was like 12 for the weedeater/briggs & stratton bike content, stuck around until I was 23 for this

You need to take it through the Haulover Inlet. (And get a SeaTow membership while you're at it!)

Ok, I have one of these motors just sitting up. I now know what I must do. Hunting FB now for the sand box.

That’d be hilarious to add mini fiberglass outriggers to it 😂

Well done man! Cops were nice, but they got two things wrong, if you're wearing your pfd (think jet ski) you don't need oars or a rope or anything, other than a whistle. Just a sound signaling device although a rope and bailer are good ideas. For those living is the US of freedom, depending on what state you're in you'd need to get your sand box registered. In Canada you don't need a boat license (number on the hull) if you're under 10hp.

I've always wanted to ride one of those in the water ever since I was young

This is merely the start of something awesome. A small trolling motor (30# thrust) moves my 18' fiberglass (with plenty of wood and metal) sailboat along at a nice clip with one adult and two kids on board, so it could probably make this thing fly. I suspect the trolling motor is a lot lighter so you'll be taking a lot of weight off the stern. Build a waterproof box for the battery and position it (attached to the boat) about where you're sitting on that crate. That additional weight in the center (and as low as you can get it) will help with the stability. IF you want to put a bigger motor on it (and maybe if you want to stick with the same motor) put those engineering skills to work and find a way to get all that weight off the transom and closer to the middle of the boat - or get some floatation under the stern. Also build into the boat more floatation (as in a large waterproof box or two) - in addition to their primary purpose (to prevent the boat from sinking) it can also take up space inside your boat - which can be a good thing when your boat is filling with water. If they're along each side, then the water will pool along the centerline. If you have an automatic bilge pump to bail out the water that would be even better. If the tops can open (with waterproof lids of course), that's also dry storage. Anything you do to build up the sides (the gunnel) to make it more difficult for water to swamp the boat would also be good. Even if it's something like pool noodles - every little bit helps. It could also help you take on less water if you have floatation (like fenders) attached to the sides. Put them above the waterline so there's no drag when you're flying straight and level, but will prevent the boat from heeling over as far. It's nice to have a pfd in the boat - but a lot of people have died in the water with a pfd in the boat. Stop abusing the boat - it's too valuable to be launching out the back of a van onto pavement. Have you tried calling that number yet?

FRIGGIN RIGHTS BRO! So bad ass!!!

Thanks for sharing I always want to know if they really could float or could be used in the water like this you answer a lot of childhood questions

Hello man! You are GREAT!!! 👍👍👍

That thing is certified sick, lol. You need to rig up a center console steering setup off the yellow hoop part before you move it to the fancy marina though, lol.

The definition of smart ppl doing stupid things lol looks fun AF. Have a new sub 👍

This is so awesome XD I might have to get my hands on one of those sandboxes

Finally, you guys remember your youtube password

that is dope dude

I swear Canada is like the nicest place ever you could rob someone and they would say sorry for not giving more then they did😂

Great content my guy, subscribed just for the pure enjoyment.

I support this act of silliness wholeheartedly. Need a cameraman?

Dude you killed it with this video!!😂

That's Awesome 👍😄

man tis remind sme of stuff i used to want to do as a kid i always thought it would be fun to get like a couple old power wheels cars like batmobile and put the body on a go kart

Never dealt with fish cops even close to that nice😂

Put that engine on an old windsurfing plank, bet you can get up to speed with that setup

I want to see more of this

Rock and roll tuna pants!

So good 😂 Nice video man!!!

In Florida, you'd also need a registration since it has a motor

I love this

You have to call the number and see if anyone answer's if they do make sure your recording and start telling them how awesome their boat design is lol tell them it can even handle some wake jumping even if you have to bail it out a little lol i really want to heard their reaction to a sandbox being used as an actual boat. Also another idea take it down a river...its not gonna go up one but down is definitely possible. Technically small enough and enough foam you could try a creek. Ps this boat earned you my subscription hoping for more boat shenanigans

Now put a 200 hp engine on it

I once put a piece of foam on a 5×8 trailer that floated well, but got stuck on rocks in shallow water and was sadly lost

yall gonna go places with this quality of videos lol

This video got my subscribed and a like keep it up

Put 345or5 hp on it

Now that's just cool

You should rig up a steering wheel and a little throttle.

Famous last words. “That’s fu**ing gross want to smell it?”

Cool. Throw it from the van's roof.

What did you use as the bottom? (The black plastic sheet). Thanks :)

Dang the original guy to do this has way less views and was even featured on the news

You gotta put more floatation and you should get like a 5 or 6 hp motor and see what happens

Consider making a 4x4 boat truck.

Too cool😎

Saveitforparts about to move to Canada xD

I'm amazed he did not get a ticket

What's up with those "Pit Viper" glasses? I been seeing them alot the last few years. Are they like the new cool kid sunglasses now or something?

Not bad percentage wise 😄

12:06 time fer a bigger outboard, a 6hp or if yea wanna get wild with it, a 9.9hp😅

Lmao that thing is awesome

Pretty funny

Hey, if you ever think about selling that mini tugboat, I’m open to buy it

You should have a (kids) shovel and bucket to complete the sandbox boat. 😅

I’ve seen a man sail on flex seal alone

just need 1 oar and paddle it like a coracle.

10:55 did bro just say @whistindiesel is going to be jealous

Would it still need to be registered?

Here in Melbourne you would have had tickets haha You need a bigger motor 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

That is how fish and wildlife officers should behave

KEWL!!!

Imagine upgrading motors to a 9.9 or 15

Put a 200hp four stroke on it

canadian cops are the best!

Great to see some Canadians here I’m in Newfoundland is this Ontario?

it needs alittle bit of a v bottom like a wave runner

with it being filled with foam, there's no real way to sink it... I'd just put a drain channel in the hull so the inside just becomes self bailing.

Add a steering wheel and throttle.

1 part to the 2 part chemicals used in spray foam is highly concentrated gorilla glue, the second part is a soap like chemical that causes the expansion and it's a hardener. I know they have technical names but I can't remember the names it's been that long since I sprayed for a company.

pls add a bigger motor so you can go faster

Bro needs a 10 hp

Go fishing in it, lol

Eeeh I used to live in sylvan went to hj Cody highschool

Should water ski behind it😀

Bruh look up the og of the built "tuggy".

Can you fish on that

🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😅

Foam isnt the best idea. It absorbs water and moisture over time and became very heavy. Petter idea is to bpack the bottom with air pockets (made of transparent plastic) or empty soda bottles. To joi bottom with the rest of the boatplastic welding would be enough (first - a little bit of tacking with soldering iron, then solder with a binder (propably on the boat you have symbol of which material it is made of). If you dont wanna solder juzst use dood sealant/adhesive like a Sikaflex. It will propably outlast the rest of the boat ;]

I thought you stole @saveitforparts idea: *"2 years looking"* ...and he did *exactly this 2 years ago* ... same build technique even...then I remembered he said "I know I'm late on the viral wave after a guy on Reddit did this.." ....Given that the internet just learned what "plagiarism" means, you might wanna cite your references tho 😉

I ENVY YOU! Makes me wish I was young again lol. So very cooool! God Bless You for sharing this, brightened my day! (Glen). WV. hurry and get a patent!
