make a bag aout of fishing net and fill it with plastic bottles filled with air and lash it to the bottom for more boyancy

@mewmaster151 thats a really good idea! only thing u need to be careful of is that bottles leak when under large pressure. need to melt each cap onto each bottle to be safe

that is one cool swamp boat.

100% correct, how do i make a light paddle?

And even though i had thick steel, the boat was too wide and the steel would bend about 10cm towards me when paddling which was unforseen and an EPIC FAIL LOL. Possibly narrower boat would have been both lighter and more structurally solid. :D thanks for comment.

smaller gear on the paddle equals more speed

Well.... at the first launch It was a heavy piece of machiery, much and was much denser then water. It couldnt displace enough water to keep itself afloat, then we added an extra pipe u cant see, that is much larger, under the smaller poly pipes and then it could float :D It was really trial and error going into the boat, not too much mathematics or engineering. Just couple of guys in bak shed trying to make something cool
