DIY Kayak outriggers part #4 Tamarack Angler update!!

[@mre4875]

Nice setup. Since it's necessary to drill a hole in the pvc to stop it from rotating I think I will sand down the pvc enough that it rotates in the square tubing to stow the floats in an up position and secure with a pin instead of bolt & nut. Thank you for the detailed explanation of a simple and inexpensive outrigger.

Great info! Thanks for posting!

[@Frangelico009er]

[@moses_3109]

Frangelico Rivera thanks! made the kayak super stable.

[@everythingateds2350]

I just bought one of those kayaks. Can't wait to try mine out on the water. And get some awesome you tube footage

[@moses_3109]

Hek yea it's a really good starter kayak. I'm sure you will love it. Wish I had some water footage of if but didnt get non

[@Picassosgarage]

Nice work buddy! I'm stealing this idea! Lol

[@MericaBack2backWWChampions]

That's a great design. I would really like to see an in the water demonstration

[@moses_3109]

Derek Perez I ended selling it but man I wish I had taken a video In the water. it was really stable

[@gregblack2628]

DIY IS ALWAYS TRIAL AND ERROR. Great job, I used plastic electrical conduit pvc and crab floats. 4 revisions and I love them,up to paddle,down to stand or use the real tree $14 fold up seat I modified to sit higher. Still very stable either way😊. Yakin bout Yakin.

[@moses_3109]

Greg Black hell yea bro I sold mines already saving up for something else but man was that thing stable on the water. could probably do a flip on it lol paddling stand up was a breeze

[@arthurcuellar7731]

how did you secure the rubber floats to the PVC 90 elbow ??????

[@robertchillcott7669]

How much drag does it create, does it interfere with paddling

[@mongovang]

That's awesome. Im gonna do the same thing to mines. Are the stabalizers still working rn?

[@moses_3109]

Sold it already but dont see why they wouldn't. They were really stable

[@Miami3o5King]

I just bought a Tamarack 120 I like your set up

[@moses_3109]

Mike Palacios thanks man set up works great

[@Miami3o5King]

AllThingsHelpful _ I went fishing today but the winds were killing me. But I'm going to Lowe's tomorrow. so i can try this stabilizer

[@moses_3109]

Mike Palacios cool square tubing is about 17.99 for a 3ft piece. I believe I bought a 1 inch and a quarter for one tube and an 1 inch for the second. let me know how that works out for you

[@Miami3o5King]

AllThingsHelpful _ where do you fish at ? I live in Miami and luv saltwater

[@moses_3109]

Mike Palacios I'm in California. I usually fish lakes in my area. rivers are to high right now to fish

[@ahuertas69]

The design is nice but it looks like you used 3/4" pvc. Not good. Use 1". 3/4" is not as strong & has a thinner side wall which means with a good tilt it's eventually going to break.

[@jamesmarshall5794]

Do you have a video of it in the water? It would be awesome to check it out in action.

[@moses_3109]

I wish I did man I ended up selling it once I was done I did take it out several times to the local lake but never took any good videos of it but man it sure was stable. I could stand no problem

[@BRAAD2]

IT WORKED..BUT U DIDNT EVEN SHOOT A VIDEO TO PROVE IT HUH?? AFTER ALL THAT WORK?? WTH

[@dennismitchell9825]

What was the measurement from the bar to the water?

[@moses_3109]

Not sure but I weigh about 150 pounds so your weight may differ from mines could sit lower or higher in the water.

[@ryankelly6126]

Hi what size are the boat fenders

[@moses_3109]

I honestly don't remember they have 2 sizes at Walmart I believe they are the larger ones.

[@charmnGUY]

coulda told you that it wouldn't touch water in part 3 lol
