Custom Skiff Build catamaran boat

[@josephshultz6726]

The "how to" stuff is great. Really cool to see how to accomplish the fabrication. You make it look easy.

[@diywaterworld]

Thank you so much Joseph! I’m glad you enjoyed the build! And hahaha. I guess like anything, the more we do it ( and mess up ) the better and more efficient we get! Cheers !

[@BradleyBellwether-oy2qi]

Thanks for all the great tips, Forest! Skiff is looking good so far!

[@diywaterworld]

Thank you Bradley! We’re pretty stoked with the result! It’s a wicked boat indeed!

[@stevebreland389]

Excellent. The how-to is great. Thanks for taking the time to go through the build steps.

[@rickysiebert9618]

You’re very talented. Fascinating to see the technique and craftsmanship that goes into your builds. Me like!

[@rafalc4857]

I actually loved the way you worked with the templates. Great work! Greetings from Poland!

[@nathanhull4472]

Love the diy builds. Gets me motivated to give it a go myself.

[@diywaterworld]

Thanks so much! Always stoked to see your comments / positivity! Thanks for sharing!

[@Jeffhuebner]

Yes! Looks great! I’d take that boat out every day! Thanks for the tips! Love the builds!🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@diywaterworld]

Thanks Jeff! Right?!?!!! It’s such an awesome overall boat, probably the most versatile ive ever worked on. This boat can do anything! Cheers buddy!

[@heathen_7]

I liked seeing the template process. Lots a good tips!

[@artbobik3516]

that build was great - there was plenty of information as to how to do it and get the mind working for a project like this -

[@KarlKarsnark]

Great little skiff. Sneaking up on 20,000 SUBS too! Cheers from N. FL.

[@diywaterworld]

Thank you Karl! I’d have to agree, it’s a pretty cool ride for sure! And haha, yeah buddy, getting there! As nice as it is to see that number grow, my most selfish takeaway from the channel is reading comments from guys like yourself! I’m always appreciating your north Florida love buddy! Cheers!

[@scottmichael3745]

My man I'm loving ❤ this content. I've flipped motorcycles, cars, and a few small Aluminum boats. Haven't messed with fiberglass boats yet but have used fiberglass on some boat flooring for the aluminum boats. I'm going to start doing this! Thank you! 👍 Oh, and subbed days ago. Keep it up!

[@darrisb1727]

NIce I always buy a pack of wood shims from Home Depot to make templates. I also use those shims to mix my resin.

[@lanceforrest8828]

Always great content brother. Keep making great content and the subs will follow.

[@diywaterworld]

Man, I always appreciate the encouragement Lance and your continued support of the channel. You rock buddy! Cheers!

[@michaelosmon]

I like the way you filmed this. You ask for suggestions so it'd be cool to see the boat all painted up at the end. But it came out great. Would really like to see the rear deck installed also

[@michaelgonzalez8863]

Nice ! I like the more detailed videos

[@diywaterworld]

Awesome Michael! Stoked you liked the different format ! Cheers!

[@johnhamilton9229]

So this video really went well with my coffee. Thanks man👍

[@aj-li4ly]

Great video!!!! Learned a lot!

[@perfectfitboating]

Yes!!! Love the instructional vids! Well done Forrest! 🤙

[@bradentonspearfisher]

Forest, I’m so glad you are posting these again. The videos are great. When is your next Bahamas crossing?

[@diywaterworld]

I really appreciate your comment, thank you 🙏🏼. It’s nice to be back in the swing of it, I have a ridiculous amount of content to share haha. I hope you’re ready! As far as Bahamas, VERY soon actually! And I can promise it’ll be the wildest video yet. Cheers !

[@brentsutherland6385]

I enjoyed it, and learned some things.

[@gatoman2846]

Love this type of work looking to get into it very soon.

[@IATG-tl3jf]

i love the how to and ideas you have.

[@diywaterworld]

Thank you so much. I appreciate the encouragement and positive input! . Cheers!

[@mauricewalle]

Yew.. Great instruction Forrest.. Loving the red truck.. 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼

[@josephshultz6726]

Going to be a righteous boat. Lemme know if you need someone to come dive off of it :)

[@ElleDelSol]

Don't be too hard on yourself, this was a solid, engaging video. There are lots of channels out there for fiberglass/DIY newbies, I actually prefer this more advanced kind of DIY stuff. Almost anyone can fiberglass a sheet of coosa.

[@FrankLadd]

Nice Work!

[@michaelosmon]

I had a friend named Austin when I lived in St. Pete. I wonder how he's doing Appreciate ya bud

[@joeymisko3997]

Nice boat !!!

[@fivestarreptiles]

loved it as always

[@treavorbentmore9843]

Sup old man!!!!! Still stuntin that F4i??? Happy to see u building your brand!! Thanks for the blue and white paint job on my 600rr back in the day!! (Otown Throwdown!!!)

[@diywaterworld]

Hahaha. Oh man, you’re taking it back!!! So awesome to hear from you and glad to have you here watching! You still in central Fl? O Town Throwdown !!! 😎

[@michaeltiozzo472]

the how to stuff is awesome!

[@ninehundreddollarluxuryyac5958]

Do you think the coosa is stronger than Nidacore with an extra layer or two of glass on it? The nidacore seems to be the cheapest core material around, cheaper than divinycell.

[@Thecap242]

Love this style video!! Netflix special coming soon????

[@VernBigDaddy]

Circle around with Austin and get us a “Customer completed the skiff we did deck and bulkhead repair on” video.

[@MikeSnedaker]

More template examples. Like building stringers.

[@johnbigboote7954]

We dig it!

[@ninehundreddollarluxuryyac5958]

What did you do with the MacGregor? Want to sell it?

[@diywaterworld]

It was actually given to a Bahamian fisher last summer. 😎

[@chriswilson8911]

Love the how too

[@MadisonFishing]

Can we get a video of the boat in the background? The one with a ramp instead of transom

[@LuisMiguelGarciaTorres]

could you please try to show that big white boat that looks like its a sailboat hull but has no mast. it was the one with the skeleton on it. TY

[@AX01Adventures]

So what are you going to build out of that hull you used when you showed how to make the little bulkhead/floor support. It looks another speed skiff build is in the future. Good stuff here !

[@maverickforge4929]

How you seal around that PVC by the motor?

[@jaxpatriot904]

I noticed alot.of your projects are smaller boats but I have a dream of getting a 25+ ft boat with a cabin , stripping it all out, demolishing the cabin and turning it in to a large sporty center console. With your knowledge would that be feasible? Or are most of the bigger boats structurally built around the cabins?

[@diywaterworld]

Hi there, yes, I definitely feature smaller boats / skiffs on the channel. They’re more budget friendly and they keep me “ between the lines” in terms of affordability and usability. My rule is that if a Honda civic can’t tow it, I don’t want it. Haha. Really though, I like the idea and it is definitely very possible to covert any boat to center console. Some are easier then others but overall an outside hull is just a hull. You can build the interior portion however you want as long as you adjust the structure to Support the new layout. Cheers!

[@DrKnowNothing1]

Funny, I have the opposite dream. My wife likes Dual Console boats, but they haven’t been made for as long. So I figured start with an easy-to-find center console hull, and convert it to a dual console…

[@BarryKing-h3m]

You showed the finish product not the actual work done

[@joshwalker1441]

Enjoyed it

[@SkywalkerPMs]

Do you sell any of these projects?

[@heyreddin2.0s10]

Youre alive

[@jerseyfreshfishing6613]

Nice job on the build. Somewhat poor job explaining the door skin templates😂 Did you build Barnney's Rambo?

[@86OEd]

👍👍👍

[@ashworthcustoms]

No storyline, we don’t need it to be manufactured. Just show us the diy stuff buddy and we will all be happy I’m sure
