Oh hey! It's me at 8:30! Wasn't expecting to see that when I was browsing my recommended videos today!

[@JGarcia77]

Number 6 is a GW Invader. It’s good to know that someone got ahold of the molds and is still making them!

[@dphotos007]

The small hydroplane racing boats have been around a long time. Since the 1950’s. Three companies sold plans that I know of. They were Clark Craft Boats, Hal Kelly Boats and Glen-L Boats. I built a hydroplane in 1975 from a set of plans in my high school wood shop. Today with the internet finding all the correct hardware and marine supplies is very easy. Most lumber yards have marine plywoods and door skins for the build. Many use vintage outboard motors or they will use a Japanese Yamato motor. They are super fun to drive.

[@goofyfox]

Here on the west coast, we used to call the #2 boats "Punkin-seed hydros". When I was a kid in the late 50's and 60's, most docks on the lake had one or two of these little guys, and races were held once a year. Lots of full classes. Most of them were powered by Mercury "Hurricane 10's". Ah the smell of castor oil!!!

[@RonGay58]

They had Tiny Hydroplane Mini Watercraft races on the rivers in Maine when I was a kid, and I'm 60. Sometimes the bottoms would peel off at 50 MPH, no one got injured by the grace of God.

[@hoodatdare7039]

I BUILT A TINY TITAN IN THE 60S WITH MY DAD. I FOUND A KG7 SUPER 10 HURICAIN FOR IT . I WAS CLOCKED AT 40 MPH. WHAT A BLAST.

[@MovieMike1969]

The mini tug boats are really cool, and number 7 would be a great tour boat or super modern water taxi.

[@christopherbishop4927]

#2 & #3 totally reminds me of the Inland Waterway Outboard Rally Every Labor Day Weekend come visit Northern Michigan and watch these FLY

[@joeracerable]

#4 is my favorite. For me and what I would like to use it for, it has potential. It's looks very sturdy in the water also.

[@joseduranjr8890]

I loved the miniature luxury yachts!

[@DanFrederiksen]

Me too :) cool concept.

[@denelll.bennettsurvivorwar8224]

*The Mini Yacht!* 🛥

[@geoffreyjones2000]

I got a mini race boat built by a Denmark builder in 1959. We put a 40 horse mercury short shaft and clocked at 96 mph. It's just been sittin for the last 25 years.

[@jrayner21679]

I like how they always put descent looking chicks in the boats videos that were produced by the manufacturer.

[@SK22000]

I love those mini tugs

[@dariusvilla5680]

I really like the Jet Capsule Mini Yacht.

[@sharonbraselton4302]

buy it😊

[@Beemer917]

They absolutely had those tiny hydroplanes when you were a kid. People have been class racing in those things since the forties.

[@mindseyedesign]

That's true they have been around for a long while.

[@dianechicklo7961]

Love # 7 live on it in the summer.

[@ratdog3055]

Some unique designs. I had a blast jet boat that would hit 50mph. A lot of fun!

[@galexeqe]

4:42 that's awesome and love the key in the back : )

[@johnnywoods5549]

7 looks interesting, if it had a closed back I would love a little pod boat.

[@KrisnaGaming22]

Love it

[@doranjaffas9645]

if I ever have to give up flying I think I found a new passion!

[@nikki51964]

I like the Italian one the best. It is the prettiest and the biggest. Plus a small kitchen or galley is what it's called I guess. I'm sure the most expensive too!

[@drpamelatomcruise4517]

That's the thing I like playing on water

[@mindseyedesign]

Hello Dr pamela tom Cruise, thank you for watching!

[@pistolannie6500]

#7 the capsule mini yacht. couple of those on board a Large yacht, might make good life boats. Or a good little "go-between" from land out to a Yacht.

[@keepitrealcomments2426]

Wow she was stunning

[@alexander2685]

Wow 😍all your videos😊😎

[@caseywun390]

They are all cool! For the weight and DIY project, I would love to try making #2 one day.

[@mindseyedesign]

You should!

[@warrenbarron1029]

I love the house boat

[@colonellandon8536]

That was neat.

[@TheFrogfeeder]

I got a 1973 13’ welded Gregor, I run a 1962 Evinrude Speeditwin on it. Fun boat.

[@karenvickers8165]

I like # 7

[@erroleabrown4317]

Awesome, l like the bubble one, they all freak me out cos they're so close to the water

[@kallentornadohunter0064]

It's nice to see that a rather pretty Cassie is here. :) Oh, the baby boats were cool also.

[@karenvickers8165]

I love #7,just my size and so darn cute!!!!!!

[@Mocking69]

⑦これはそこそこデカイですがキャビン型なのでめっちゃ実用的で欲しいです！！ これ持ってたら楽しいだろうな～♪

[@sandroetn6907]

Good job Good collections

[@beverlylange4514]

wow this video started off with a great water ride! WAHOOO

[@janicegreen2373]

nice video

[@andersonbicalhodesouza3588]

Embarcação sem o uso do colete, não combinam!!!! E olha que são pessoas de um certo poder aquisitivo, que não se preocupam com a vida.

[@joshs199]

I like small boats. This made me happy 😁👍

[@Whale876]

The picture of the blue speed boat, it seriously looks like a rc boat

[@Nittygrittyguy]

Gorgeous video! I love the smell boat's and hopefully build my design ? Great videos on minds eye design !

[@ivanpetrov1819]

number 7 is the best

[@crazyharry1586]

No. 4 would suit me down to the water :P Put a shade on it, tie down the esky and I'd never get off the water lol

[@christopherstrong4084]

mini boats cool

[@richardhowe2370]

I love the idea that most of these boats could be made at home. It motivates my imagination.Cool video!!

[@lululuna1224]

15 really looks fun, I'd like to do this.

[@billypoe3703]

Paul Elkins rocks!

[@frankpeck1448]

As a young boy growing up in the 50s, our neighbor had one, and he said it was referred to as a Hydroplane, as it seemed to skip over the water, with only a 10 HP Evinrude!

[@yang-25jin-chiritbaimpossi96]

I love it all!

[@machew2009]

Lil wake is awesome I've seen that one in person and got to meet the guy that built it

[@awaren8375]

The marina down the road from me had two of the Funjet Minis they were a lot of fun before they got rid of them

[@markdyke8150]

In 1967 my dad and I built the number 2 boat from Glenn L plans we put a 25 horse Merc on it it was very fast in a straight line over 50 miles an hour but didn't Corner well it was a straight line drag boat it was a lot of fun the good old days

[@karenvickers8165]

This is another video I liked so much I watched it several times!!!! good work!!!

[@jackgilmore8383]

I like I'm all I really do I like them all

[@lorilange8654]

Mini Yaht and the adorable tug boats..

[@jas8256]

I live about 2 miles from the sight of the Annual Thunder on the Neches Boat Races ... they have kids racing some small mono hulls and tunnel boats ... These mini Tugs and the Craig Cat it looks like a great fishing boat but also something my Grandsons would enjoy ...

[@PhoebeFayRuthLouise]

#7 had me at “mini kitchen”!

[@mindseyedesign]

Hello, PhoebeFay RuthLouise Thanks for viewing!

[@PhoebeFayRuthLouise]

Minds Eye Design Thanks to y’all for such excellent videos!

[@drampadreg1386]

Had me at 29 mph, for a 25' boat that could seat 12 passengers! That kitchen would be good for hot knives too.

[@jodahjamesjuanico5641]

Wow

[@luettias]

@@mindseyedesign what does #7 cost ? I'm ready to go get one pending $ of course.

[@carmenpilarboosilvero7739]

me encantan...

[@ahmadikhsan6515]

Love you konten!!!👍👍👍😊😊😊

[@johnlowe4916]

I have three of the Funjets. One of them I stretched to 11'11"and put a 657x Rotex motor (80HP) in it. It does 45 miles an hour. I'm in the process of making a mold for one that will be 13 feet and it will have a 135 HP Rotex motor.

[@AM-zx2sm]

I have an 87 Funjet with the Suzuki. Do you happen to have parts for either the Suzuki or the jet pump? Mostly looking for the impeller. Let me know thanks

[@makeitorleaveit1]

When you popped up at the end was the best part 😆

[@TheVinsontafoya]

Thank you for introducing me to Jetstream. I’m in Oregon and will definitely be purchasing a kit from them! Can’t wait to hit the Willamette and McKenzie with one of those little monsters!

[@maxrash3123]

Mini yaht was my favorite

[@tonweya3615]

Thanks for the inspiration! My favorite is the Tiny Titan. It is the perfect buddy to my Minimost "Hetty"

[@route66flyer29]

I remember that in the fifties Popular Science had plans for the #2, the mini hydroplane racer. I remember it well because I wanted to build one so badly but dear old Dad wouldn't let me. Still want one but now my wife won't let me. LOL

[@joshuasprinkles3490]

Still have mine my dad built with me in the 1980’s because he had one as a kid. I still have it.

[@DarrellCosdenMusic]

My father built, raced and won many trophies in the early 50's up and down the east coast and Chesapeake Bay having built some of the earliest hydroplanes like you have here...

[@gerilynntarvin9402]

great stuff BUT unless you are 80, #2 was being built and raced in the mid 50's. they were called "punkin seeds" quick and easy to build and any outboard that run would make a fun ride out of it.

[@MadX-H]

These boats are so cool keep up the good vids

[@nyhedscentrum3043]

Tiny Titan Hydroplane (no2) is actually an old construction from about 1970. I have seen it in Popular Mechanics from about 1970 where it was described in detail with complete drawings. I was building my own boat at that time and had big attention in that boat, but had built another one for myself to use. Popular Mechanichs called it "the flying slipper" at that time.

[@joshuasprinkles3490]

Try the 50’s.

[@remkojerphanion4686]

Little boats: Under-weight and over-powered, ya gotta love 'm!

[@joet-sk4sw]

Mini tug boat was very cool...

[@borisatman2]

How bout a conversion van fiberglass high top roof - If you look at it upside down ...its a ready boat!

[@randymc61]

I must still be a kid, because I immediately wanted each one I saw! Cool video. How in the world could anyone down vote this?

[@MrP0kerJunkie]

Love your content. This narrator is the best!

[@bigfootsboggybottomlodge4954]

Sounded like Billy Bob Thornton to me.

[@mindseyedesign]

Thank you MrP0kerJunkie!

[@codybaggett5329]

7 was the best IMHO.

[@annagraser5088]

I like 7 the best.

[@terrysimeon6042]

14 is cool

[@bob2161]

I want to hear more about that "Water Propelled" engine! Never need to make that pricey stop at the fuel dock again, and unlimited range to boot!

[@timothyehook4883]

Try Glen-l marine for the 8ft tiny titan...there's also Clark craft out of tonawanda, NY..that good ol guy has plans of actual 8ft+ class hydros they used to race in the mighty niagara river...imho, any race boat hull designed for those waters will kick arse.

[@edwardchalmers7070]

Jetcapsule.com has got to be the best! I want one!!

[@tbirdracefan]

interesting that this video included a 25' boat with a kitchen but no mention of the SeaDoo twin engine speedster.

[@derby1263]

I would like to think that one day I would be buried at sea. But Sparky the boat. Looks like a coffin. This boat looks like a do-it-yourself suicide kit. That's equipped to get you out there. with your very own coffin. They look so stable it looks like a death trap.

[@robormiston2841]

I had #2 a hydro with a 7.5 Mercury outboard on it. It looked just like the one on this video. Mine was red with black black and silver stripes with a maple leaf overlay. It was cool I have pictures of it still but my dad sold it a long time ago. I had a few more when I got older, I was 7 then. The ones I had when I was older my dad could not sell ha ha. But it was cool fix it up and fiberglass it and paint it and run it. We lived on Wooten Lake in Belfair Washington. Doug Kitrick used to have about 15 Hydroplane's across the lake so he was a huge inspiration, R.I.P Doug! Mine would go 35 with a 1980 7.5 Mercury. It would pull,my my mom waterskieng with my driving it at 7 years old., Doug had Mercury Super 10 and 20's on most of his. Good times. I'm thinking of building a custom tiny boat. A tiny version of a 21 foot tunnel hull I built and used to build and sell. Hurricane Performance Tunnell Hulls. I live on my one of my boats so I'm a serious boater lol. I'm on one right now!

[@joshuasprinkles3490]

Mine my father and I built is baby blue still have it started with the 7.5 Johnson then a 10 hp mercury then we got serious and put a 15hp evinrude on it. I won a lot of races it was dangerously fast.

[@Electric_scooter_ride]

Красивые катера. Тоже хочу покататься )))

[@твполезныесамоделки]

делайте.джонбот.метр на 3.

[@enderteller]

2:55 nothings unsinkable , the titanic had 16 water tight rooms and it still sank

[@vadimrossinsky621]

seven cool

[@williamclifford2943]

In the 1950s there were small plywood boats that were raced in Canada and called sea-fleas.

[@mindseyedesign]

I think we may have them in a earlier video. Ill have to go search now those definitely ring a bell.

[@anitapage668]

Difficult for a LandLubber like me to chose a few faves but Number 5 and 9 did just happen to catch my eye! Is there a Showcase venue in the U>S. for these magnificent Boats?

[@geminirat60]

7 was very cool and i also like 5 it looked durable

[@beverlylange4514]

ALREADY LOVE NO. 1 ITS MY CUP OF TEA FOR SURE!!!

[@beverlylange4514]

THAT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE NO. 15

[@johnnygilroy5213]

#7 The Best :)

[@Pescasubsemfronteira]

Top de mais já tô ansioso pra montar o meu

[@soulassassin0g]

2:56 there's a famous ship that claimed it was "unsinkable" too yet it sunk like stone.

[@carlhayes2299]

I truly enjoyed this video simply because it was done right. Great photography or is it videographer? Anyway really good highlights, and motion also the narration in this was just right not a long drawn out affair but very directed and to the points that I wanted to know. Just really, really good and it helped me immensely. Thank you. Have a great one. And stay well to all

[@elanstewart5459]

Which boat would do best in the ocean? Would love something to watch local regattas in!

[@pellapotha7099]

More detail about mini yatch... Hehe

[@iduswelton9567]

when my godbrothers and i were teens we built a boat that was 8' long × 4' wide made of fiberglass-basically it was just the hull with an outboard motor mount and controls-it was very fast using a 15 hp motor

[@julioricardolopezaguirre1206]

maybe he comes from a family of Greek Gods or something like that XD
