Hey Chris for rolling flicker you can use: Flicker Free from Digital Anarchy, if you're still using FCP (not sure if there any internal solutions, I haven't touched macs in a while). Or Deflicker tool that comes with DaVinci Resolve. Both gave me pretty great results in the past.

[@stuartparry1649]

Hey Chris, from an engineering perspective, those welds need re-enforcement. Your joins are central and I would you recommend doing 2 things: 1. Weld an alu belt (500mm wide) over your centre line weld and then 2. Weld at least 4 horizontal struts over this join for reenforcement. Your support struts should be at least 1m in length and 100hx100wx4mm material width. The way you have carried out the work so far is great, but as an engineer, I would not certify this structure currently as it is.

[@hughbugger]

Definitely agree. A spa pool in the middle is also going to be putting a huge amount of bending into those pontoons and hence, those welds are going to have to be even stronger than the ones used in the original pontoons structure. I would be tempted to run some additional strengthening channels along the length of the pontoons also

[@woodbutcher5794]

This is starting to be reminiscent of the camper

[@stuartparry1649]

Just as another note, what gauge is the alu? It may only be gauged to the size of pontoon bought. In that case you ought to weld disks inside the pontoon, spacing them every 600mm to increase rigidity.

[@allensandven0]

My thoughts exactly.. or incorporate a truss system also don’t forget the horizontal forces between pontoon’s will need structural diaphragm… so the pontoon’s supporting the engine(s) don’t run over your hot tubbers while passing your outside pontoon’s ….? 😂

Or run holding tanks, placed throughout pontoons from middle to rear, to hold hot tub water when underway, then pump into the hot tub when you are using it.

That weld spot connecting thr long tubes, wouldn’t that become the weakest area of the longer tube now. They only removed a three or so foot section off the end. That end hardly had any of the weight of the boat stressing it, but the middle will have a lot of stress how is that not going to buckle?

[@kenpennuto2590]

So they will need to only invite super models to play on the floating pontoon hottie spa??

[@oldman1944]

Won't the extreme pontoon length cause flex and cracking around the welds? Might have been safer to have kept them as individual units mounted solidly together.

[@donjackson4883]

They should run some I-beams longitudinally to reinforce that center seam. Should have connected the strakes to help with that also.

[@exoc1]

I agree. I would probably cut them into smaller sections and make several watertight sections in each pontoon. When one of those welds crack, they will fill a whole pontoon with water and it will flip over.

[@gerryb6367]

Agree with the comments on lack of strength of the pontoon in the area of the welds Oscar has put in. I an ideal world, to make longer pontoons you would start with larger diameter tubes so that the bending moment stays about the same. Need to calculate for vertical bending of the structure, when each end is on the peak of the wave, and midships is in a trough. With the payload (people) in the middle. However, rather than reinforcing the weld area, I would make sure there is sufficient strength (including triangulation) in the upper structure, that ties in to the tubes towards the bow and stern. By the way, what you are calling stringers are actually deck beams. Stringers go longitudinally. Great project. Don't forget the lifejackets!!

[@Guds777]

Fill the pontoons with expanding foam, closed-cell spray foam insulation is highly moisture resistant. If you hit something you won't sink. It is just a thin Aluminum...

[@austinh1028]

@@davelangford2439 Not sure there is such a thing as 'too bouyant' for pontoons, think all it would do is add some weight air vs foam in the tanks, easy thing they can test with one of the cones though (for floatability) edit- Also the things are sectioned, so the long sides already have ~6 different sections that would need to be breached (and I don't think it would be all that easy to 'fill them with foam' consistently)

Don't do this... the instant a crack forms in the pontoon you'll have hundreds of pounds of wet foam stuck in there, even if it's moisture resistant

[@lexus82su]

This is the absolute worst idea imaginable. The pontoons are segmented for a reason - puncture one segment of 1 pontoon and the boat will still float enough to get it back to shore. Adding thousands of pounds of foam to sealed bouyancy tanks will just increase the weight of the vessel.

*The formula for calculating the floatation of a pontoon is F = (D - W) / V, where:* F: is the floatation force D: is the density of the water W: is the weight of the pontoon V: is the volume of the pontoon To calculate buoyancy, you can multiply the volume of the pontoons by 62 lbs. per qu. ft.. Or you can use the "Twenty Percent" Rule to ensure that you build a safety margin. This rule has two ways to go about it: •Subtract 20% from the capacity plate's total listed weight capacity and use that as the maximum permissible weight •Calculate the total weight of your passengers and cargo and subsequently increase the total by 20% *I didn't want to take the time to type all this out so I copied and pasted it for you, hope it helps* 😅👍

Dear Chris, congratulations on your new built. I would like to point out some things that concern me about the Pantoone build. first of all you are welding two independent sections and those sections are held by a tiny weld in the middle, you should consider that that’s going to be under a lot of pressure and the weakest point. it could be the failure point on the pontoon sections , if you see the original pantoon sections they each have a long brace that goes from the beginning until the end of each section and that is to give strength to the cylindrical sections. Consider placing 2 continues support beams two brace each side of the new pontoon sections welded to brace them so it mitigates, putting all the force on the welds and preventing the pantoon from bending in the middle and reaching a catastrophic failure. Congrats to you and your team on embarking on a new journey. I really enjoy watching your videos.

I would definitely continue the mounting angle across the welds for structural strength.

[@alexandermarken7639]

I think the 27 in pontoons also reduce the bending of the outer pontoons. So the inner pontoons become almost like a girder to reduce bending moments. I am all on board with the idea of spraying closed cell foam into the pontoons to make them both stronger and more boyant in the case of an incident. Looks like being an incredible lake boat but your going to need a large float to transport it and also need to take into account lifting points for launching.

My worries are 1) the resistance from bending under weight. Constant shifts minuscule over time does what it does to all metals. 2) resistance to ea pontoon with their massive length rolling in/out in between each other (trying to separate from each other) outwards. Those calculators do t factor a lot of what nature can do to numbers that only account for a static vessel. Boats are not as static as we think they are. Theres some massive physics that will be challenged when fully weighted and in water that is constantly moving. It’s a crushing weight that being floated by pontoons above the water without any body below the water to set a balance from what’s above the water vs below. Just my worries, wishing the best for you all ♥️✊🏽

You might want to look into bow thrusters. You're going to need a lot of room to maneuver without.

Thanks for your awesome works and videos. I guess, as certainly already pointed out by other, that vertical stripping is probably due to frequency of your LED light and the frame rate of the camera. My best guest is to ask the LED light provider as they are certainly aware of the problem and solutions. Thanks again for the great work.

Probably wise to have the 2nd floor cover the helm. Will make operating in the rain less unenjoyable.
