[jeremydeback]

when u puting the troling moter on

[RamblinAround]

@jeremydeback It'll have to wait til spring now, but we have the battery and trolling motor for it.

[christownshendtv]

woo awesome,but why dont u just get a proper mini boat cause u seem really rich with that massive pond

[RamblinAround]

@christownshendtv We're certainly not rich, but we do have an actual boat. This was just a fun project.

[24hyperformance]

u missed it!

[RamblinAround]

@24hyperformance I know, that sucked.

[RamblinAround]

@yokon99 Thanks for watching!

[starwarscary]

watch out for aligators.

[tkewetk]

can i suggest another outrigger

[RamblinAround]

@tkewetk That would be a great idea. He ended up making the outrigger bigger and moving it out a bit wider.

[callumazoo11]

Man you guys have a real sense for adventure, Thanks for uploading. Do you still have the boat? is it still up and running? Well done for making it like that, your son is very clever.

[RamblinAround]

@callumazoo11 Yes, we still have it. We'll be getting it out again next summer. Thanks for watching!

[MrDartplayer27]

used a weed cutter as engine that helps you move around

[chefden123]

awsome job ..... great vid by the dad 

[RamblinAround]

@chefden123 Thank you very much....we appreciate that!

[duckkillerclydeclyde]

what is the "potato gun" on the front for?

[RamblinAround]

@duckkillerclydeclyde You never know what you might run into on the pond..lol

[duckkillerclydeclyde]

how many rolls of duct tape? lol

[ppalamara1]

hey you should put a little trolling motor on it

[RamblinAround]

@ppalamara1 We might now that we have a bigger outrigger on it. Thanks for watching!

[ppalamara1]

@RamblinAround lol i gota see it with a motor

[kookiemoose]

I saw that coming haha1

[monarch1957]

Cool boat. in Calgary they have a homemade raft race where people build boats of every discription and take them down the river and see how long they hold together some are beautiful boats as big as a bus in some of them.

[bostonguy01]

you got good videos man i like watching them keep em comeing 

[RamblinAround]

@bostonguy01 Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!

[rex4x4]

this is sooo cool hahahah

[RamblinAround]

@rex4x4 Thanks for watching!

[cisjohn2616]

I can see that kid in a couple years building his own homeade airplane !

[RamblinAround]

@cisjohn2616 I wouldn't put it past him, that's for sure. Thanks for watching, Capt!

[TheBdbethune]

thats awesome

[RamblinAround]

@TheBdbethune Thanks for watching!

[bisquik3006]

Maybe he can use his brains for Toyota. They need help making a truck that can actually do what a truck is supposed to do.

[RamblinAround]

@bisquik3006 They could definitely use some help from somebody. I'd hate to see him wasting his energy on one of those though.

[TeenageTesla]

@bisquik3006 if Einstein were still alive, even he couldn't fix Toyota. so i have no chance. sadly, they're as hopeless as ever.  - Jordan

[bisquik3006]

@TeenageTesla Touche.

[HALLSYSKITCHEN]

nice. really creative. thumbs up!!!!

[RamblinAround]

@HALLSYSKITCHEN Thanks Hallsy.......we appreciate it!

[ROCKBANDVonAmp]

Jordan did an awesome job building this duct tape boat. It was steady and it didn't leak either. It's like riding in a canoe so you gotta really keep your balance! I think we need some more practice on that! lol I think it was as much fun falling in the water as it was riding in the boat! Ha ha. -Tony

[RamblinAround]

@ROCKBANDVonAmp Thanks Tony....we had a great weekend! Look forward to the next time you make it up here!

[chrilla1980]

Did he get an influence from the mythbusters episode when they builded a sailing boat from duct tape lmao

Anyways it looks like a fun thing bud

[RamblinAround]

@chrilla1980 He did see the mythbuster's boat. He's a big fan of that show. Thanks for watching!

[1gamoguy]

well you said it was almost a good video, adding two people and tipping just made it epic lol

[RamblinAround]

@1gamoguy Thanks for watching!

[scottsadventures]

That was awesome, very nice boat. I wonder what the discussion will be when your all watching this 10 - 20 years from now?

[creamofcardstv]

That outrigger did a good job, but it's more when they fall in :)

[TheWakey420]

i got a kick outta the coffin comment

[greasedupgamer]

i wanna see his girlfriend! !! :D

[GeneralGHustler]

LOL haha impressive one day your son is gonna pop out a muscle car i swear

[RamblinAround]

@GeneralGHustler Thanks for checking out the improved version. Today, he redesigned the outrigger again and it's going to be a lot better. Now, he can get started on my Duct Tape Hemi Cuda...lol

[GeneralGHustler]

@RamblinAround haha well make sure he use's black Tape LOL

[shartne]

You need to make one thats wider some way and at least you got cooled off Jordan.

[RamblinAround]

@shartne He redesigned the outrigger today and it's much more stable. Thanks for watching!

[CoffeeKvetch]

Oh my goodness! How inventive-- yes, secretly (or maybe not so secretly anymore) I would LOVE one of these to take camping with us! Time to buy a lil bit-o-duct tape!

[RamblinAround]

@CoffeeKvetch Thanks...he sure has fun building this stuff. I'll have a video of the latest version up soon. He redesigned the outrigger to make it much more stable.

[1963impala2dr]

now that was good! haha..before I saw this... I actually made a video today of my pond and mentioned that it would be a good place for Jordens duct tape boat.. I thought about doing a video response to this but my video is way too boring.. haha.. cant compare with them capsizing!

[RamblinAround]

@1963impala2dr I'll always be happy to approve your video responses, regardless of what they are. Thanks for watching! Jordan redesigned the outrigger today and it's much more stable.

[IHcubcadet]

Lol floating casket...

[iamproudtobeajew]

i like avery much ,wow way better ,let him put that contraption also on the other side ,and will be a beast !

[RamblinAround]

@iamproudtobeajew He's making a bigger and heavier outrigger on the boat now. The next version is going to be very sturdy.

[grosteph58]

«Its allright to be a redneck» Good idea : ductape can fix or do anything , spare boat!

[foxdmulder]

patent pending???????

[hunhun23]

That is awesome! I have friends that live out in the forest and they found an old boat that was discarded. They took it back to the house, fixed it up and they take it out on the pond that is on their property.

[RamblinAround]

@hunhun23 Can't beat a free boat. Thanks for watching!

[hunhun23]

@RamblinAround nope! They also take it out on the lake to go fishin' too!

[FatGuyWithAKatana]

if i come up there i wanna go fishing on it :D

[RamblinAround]

@FatGuyWithAKatana That would make a great video..lol

[TheLionsDenNews]

LOL too cool! Ahhh, there we go, it's a good video now :).

[RamblinAround]

@TheLionsDenNews Thanks for watching, Andy.

[pulse0000]

If you have some large snapping turtles in there,they could do some real damage.

[honeybunchickens]

you put a floating stabilizer on the left side what about the right side, They wouldn't have flipped over then. That is really cool you guys built that though, How many rolls of duck tape did it take to build that

[RamblinAround]

@honeybunchickens One outrigger will do just fine, but it has to be weighted just right and the length has to be correct. Jordan is currently making the outrigger much bigger and stronger. I'd rather not think about how many rolls of tape it took....lol Thanks for watching!

[MartyMotorizedMayhem]

some more improvements and it will be out again for another test I hope.

[bethoveen3]

should wear a helmet lol

[dickylobster]

I can see a trimaran in the near future

[TransAMGTA1988]

LOL Cool!!

[MidiPunk]

Now it just needs a tarp sail ;)

[RamblinAround]

@MidiPunk You might see that at some point. He's out there right now, making a much bigger and stronger outrigger. Thanks for watching!

[RamblinAround]

@dutchurbanminer This isn't the Netherlands....they have to wait a little longer for that beer...lol

[dutchurbanminer]

@RamblinAround Maybe a small rootbeer ?

[krazy45cat]

LOL glad they had the lifevests on :)

[MO3MINI]

thats awesome. Would never had guessed that a book shelf and duct tape would make a boat...... good job :)

[805ROADKING]

Phase 2 successful, Time to put the motor on it!!☺

[josderedneck22]

Big improvement Jeff and Jordan !! not so tippy anymore now. Looking good, some redneck enginering. hahahahaha. btw not resiefed any comment from you yet.......

[RamblinAround]

@josderedneck22 Wait til you see the final version Jos. He has beefed up the outrigger a ton!

[josderedneck22]

@RamblinAround im sure its gonne be a blast again !! hahahhaha

[monarch1957]

Awesome boat I seen boats made from cardboard at the college I went to a few years ago.

[RamblinAround]

@monarch1957 I've seen some pretty funny cardboard boats made out of beer boxes.

[talfacprez]

A coffin with guns. LOL

[RamblinAround]

@talfacprez Thanks for watching!

[Busia1949]

Memories. Come back to this in 5 years and you'll both have a great time remembering... Nice job

[RamblinAround]

@Busia1949 Thanks George, you're definitely right.... time really flies by and it's important to have days like this when we can.

[The1BadBird]

any good fish in that pond???

[RamblinAround]

@The1BadBird It really is a great lake for fishing. We have crappie, bass, hybrid bluegill, and catfish in there.

[killerklay420]

wow that works great but you no if they both set flat on the bottom with there feet in front, it might be more stable. or a trolling motor where he wouldn't have to paddle and move so much.

[RamblinAround]

@killerklay420 You're definitely right, the lower they could get their center of gravity the better. Jordan redesigned the outrigger today and it's going to be much better now. Thanks for watching!

[tedhaze1]

i already said this but they made farther than my last canoe trip in a friends coleman lol

[RamblinAround]

@tedhaze1 Thanks again...lol 

[2LateIWon]

awesome Looked like fun anyways I'm sure that's what it was mainly for anyways!!!

[RamblinAround]

@2LateIWon You're exactly right, it's just for fun. It's cool to see what you can make out of what's lying around.
