You need to get a sticker to put on the boat that says.. " the boat sunk so i took the dock" lol That will be more like a party barge. All you gotta do is dock it any where close to the shore and everyone will tie up to you lol..so awesome bro ...so awesome...i might even make one with my kiddos. .thanks man

you should make the front of the barrels more hydrodynamic , and I suggest wrapping the strapping around the 2x4 s .the screws will never stay tight , if you wrapped the strapping around the board then bolted it to its self on one side then on the other side you could use a turnbuckle , that way you could tighten or loosen as needed

Curious thing has come to pass,is the availability of white spruce...which is deemed a boat Building wood..in the classic books. That is thoes white 2×4 lumber you see...at home depot...ect. Canada has put it on the market ,it at one time it was not so available. White Spruce is quite strong and light, it's knots aren't huge like Douglas fir...( which can also be used for framing,but needs gusset s..ect careful const.)

My buddy did a similar design and he ended up getting a bunch of expanding foam (fire retarder type) and he filled his barrels. The idea was if he took water on it would still float. Ended up puncturing his barrels and it worked. It listed pretty hard but it stayed up to be able to get home. He rolled some aluminum shapes on the front and back and that helped with drag in the water and we gained a little speed as well.... it looked like shit but it def worked for what we were using it for... back in the creeks to get to the crappie :) Love the vids man!

Love the suggestions. I will try to get a grill on build #2 and ribs would be so good as swimming hunger pains kick in. I hope you will watch more and give more ideas. Thanks for watching.

Bring some big rachet straps incase those metal straps break. They break easy after movement.

Thanks and I really want to, but I have to get something on the road big enough to pull the trailer and house, I don't think my car want to tackle that. But if it gets cool enough, I will take it my own woods to camp soon. Stay tuned and thanks for watching and for the request.

You probably only needed 4 barrels on your pontoon boat. Enjoy!
@chud3276 жыл бұрын
Yes, 4 would float it, but with 1 on each corner, that would be 4 flat spots to slow you down. 4 would be better for a dock. Thanks for watching.

Hey Chud, have you ever caught a gator in the lake before?
@chud3276 жыл бұрын
I have not, but a few years ago, there was one about 30 feet from our boat. It was about dark, we were in a 14' jon boat, and the wife's eyes got really big... Thanks for watching.

There are 4 parts with a 5 coming out in a couple of weeks. Yes the boat has to be registered and have a title to use it with an engine on it. It was super easy and cheap here.
