what you need to do is have a stationary rutter in the back. you wont be able to turn as quick. but you wont wast your energy going left to right bc it wont go strait.
@KTMrider908 It is not the boat to use if you want to be going straight, fast. But I now sit down in the tub a bit lower which gives it better ballance enabling me to paddle harder and go pretty straight.
@FishHuntCook That was my first plan, but instead I removed the crate that I am sitting on in the vid....so now I ride sunk down in the tub, made all the diff......is quite stable in that configuration.
I am in the process of designing a PVC Go Kart Amphibious Vehicle...One that drives with a motor on land and uses a water pump on water to move around - all engine-powered. I was thinking of making it have built-in water guns...
Spent the weekend at Stumpy meadows reservoir with the craft. Worked GREAT! i have made a small change for better balance, that being, now i sit down in the bin, not on the crate, using the same lil padded seat thing, bring my center of gravity way low and makes it so i am stable enough to actually head out on a lake without fear of tipping over easily.....and thats what i did. Spent almost 2 hours on the water one time, the boat held up well. it wil now come on every camping trip!
@valstar1000 See the short tube on the side (s)? Thats the fishing pole holder! =) And if its a redneck raft then you mean beer can holder, right? One of the secondary idea for this raft/craft was to pull it behind a larger craft as a cooler boat......the main compartment area could be filled with ice and beer. 2 24 packs would be no problem!
@flisms I am constantly smiling, With the ingenuity of people with ideas, That actually build and test them. Well we are humans who are adapting to whatever drives us at the moment aren't we. So I Sir, Tip my Hat to you and to all those who have come before you and will follow. Bravo......
No more boats. This spring/summer I will be building things from metal. I have taken up welding and intend to build something cool. Im sure ill make a video when im done with whatever things I build with metal over the next few months. Working on a Tube bumper set up for my "SUB". But also looking forward to using my watercraft a lot this summer. If you make a boat, please send me a video.
@openthedoors324..you are very right, as you can see its not gonna be headed straight forward at any sort of nice pace, a bit more of a meander. SO, as you have suggested, I upgraded my paddle set up, made another one from a pole and dust pan, and the two attach end to end to create somewhat of a kayak paddle....or can be two regular paddles, for whatever reason i might need. Looking forward to the summer, as this has not been in the water for many months now. Thanks for watching and commenting
@flisms Of course. I work as a camp counselor over the summer in boating, and with your permission I'd love to use your design. I bet the kids would love this sort of thing. Let me know how you feel about it
@openthedoors324 ...Would love to see someone rebuild and improve! I hope to get more videos up when its warm enough to take it camping somewhere for the first time. Put up a video of your summer camp creation....I got a lot of my ideas from other peoples videos, and a few hours standing around Home Depot thinking.
@CleborbTheRetard1 The Bottles are held to the PVC with large bolts,the PVC is held to the cement mixing tub with large bolts,3 each side.At each bolt there are rubber washers and this cool marine water proof rubber silcone type stuff to make a final and sure seal at each joint. Is quite flexible and does not crack. Bottles have various types of seals around the neck, where they enter the PVC.Also,ropes and carbiner clips holding storage container and crates in place. Put together in living room
Some people know how to have a good time and others have no imagination at all. LOL
