HDPE Boat - Unsinkable Jukung

[@HenauderTitzauf]

Great start in idea. But, the inside of the closed in pipe needs to be filled with closed cell foam, then truly it will be unsinkable.

[@tbonemc2118]

Not true. Even if pontoons were holed it would never sink because the specific gravity of HDPE is lighter than water.

[@SpiritofCliffhangers]

absolutely awesome! i agree filling with a foam would truly make them unsinkable. the current design is a massive step up from a fiberglass boat but you'd only need two holes worn or poked into the pontoon for it to start filling. given the amount of wear this boat would likely see, it would happen eventually. but even then your looking at years of good use and patching them really well is certainly possible to.

[@fredford7642]

Great concept. The idea presents a shallow draft boat, very boyant, capable of handling rough water, and very repairable. If these pontoons were sold to custom order, it would be practical to build a catamaran pontoon boat for a very affordable price.

[@RonMTube]

Crimp sealing the tube ends is brilliant in its simplicity. Adding foam in the tubes would create a truly unsinkable boat.

[@timothygodfrey4950]

that would add unnecessary add cost as air is buoyant enough.

Wood is a far more environmentally sustainable build product. It is also renewable by planting trees. Petroleum products, plastics, are not an improvement. They should be used with caution.

[@Herzankerkreuz67]

I am glad you mentioned the splashing, since this design will not be very suitable for rough ocean conditions. You were lucky to have a smooth first journey. The bow needs to be higher and also the shape of the hull needs to be curved upwards like a banana, with a straight pipe design it is not possible to achieve good rough weather capabilities. But the idea is good 👍⚓

[@Littlemobcraft]

wow!!! Thank you for your idea super amazing, I hope the Philippines adopt your idea and make a boat like that

[@roysoderlund3185]

[@TarmanTheChampion]

great idea and design! I would say you should try using 2 pvc pontoons as the main part of the boat.. it would float higher above the water and the outboard motors would propel the boat easier and with less wake/splashing like the splashing seen at 5:05..

[@TrimaranSpiritXL]

[@bruce2sail]

A very nice solution to the problems you mentioned both with wooden and fiberglass boats. One point that the video did not answer was how does the boat handle turbulent waters and storm conditions? Often multihull boats are more stable capsized than upright, so it would be interesting to check that failure mode to see what can be done in the design to reduce the likelihood of a capsize.

[@knightclan4]

Curious how it handles rough seas.

[@marclawyer2789]

Was it UV treated? Nice idea, especially if the plastic is recycled. Also solar panels and electric motors, with the batteries inside the main float (have the end removable), for ballast.

[@randmayfield5695]

I am just curious how stable a pontoon boat is in rough water. This is an interesting video on how to solve a problem. Here in Mexico they use a boat called a panga. The guy that spent multiple months adrift in the Pacific Ocean was in one and his major worry was never sinking only getting enough drinking water.

[@thebentley71]

Your idea is great, but if you build a platform on top of the tubular pipe like hulls, the weight of the platform forces them beneath the water. Making it a much smoother ride, because these hulls ride beneath the water like a torpedo, instead of on top of the water which is rough. You would have to place the outboards on the stilts or vertical beams that hold up the platform. This type of design is called a SWATH small waterline area twin hull. This is the future of all boating being, fishing, sailboats, ships & even ferries boats.

You could embed reinforcement beams for added structural support. Also a UV protection coating would help the plastic degradation.

Excellent construction, long life expectancy, presumably Maintenance free too, if small hole used you can use expanding foam in a can, to retro fill foam in to. Main buoyancy chambers, foam with micro bubbles offer more unsinkability, well done guys very well thought out, and very well presented.... Thom in Scotland.

[@jodyjohnsen]

It’s a great start but unsinkable will not stop it from capsizing and drowning everyone on board. You have the perfect platform for solar panels overhead eliminating the need for imported fuels. But I would address the issue of drag first. Those pontoons can be shaped to cut through the water then widening gradually. That will increase speed, efficiency and reduce splashing/drag.They can even be raised so they don’t touch the water when you’re traveling at speed. And you have too many braces for the outriggers. You can reduce your weight considerably by eliminating half the braces.

others are saying foam, but then when the hull gets a hole you would have no way of knowing and the water will rot the foam and add weight, instead a few bulkheads in each tube with an inspection/storage hatch to access each, so if one gets a leak it wont sink, and you have access to fix it.
