Intex Excursion 5 modifications by BackRoom Labs

[@Alekseych_M]

Это лучшая установка и изготовление защиты от солнца, которую я встретил в ютубе.

[@andriigera]

The most rational mod in my opinion. In this mod the roof can be easily extended to the sides, serving it's main purpose: sun protection

[@atnstn]

This is absolutely inspired canopy design. Well done man! I am going to steal this idea gladly.

[@maximolotov]

Ty vm My one is ready. Used building sheet to close it completely with extra pipes Used as waterproof tent and slept in it for 2 nights as well

[@jamesderoc6717]

if the bimini fabric was some what stretchy you might be able to do with out cross pieces. nice design mate i see pedestal chairs mounted to the floor of these i wonder if a deck umbrella could be

[@tzarebski]

I like your canopy. with mine one I overcomplicated. but yours is simple, stable and keeps all together perfectly thanks to proper use of nature forces (and elastic pipes) :-) good job!

[@1billyknorr]

Thanks, although when it gets real windy it's not all that stable. Works fine till winds go above 15mph. After a full day it's a blessing to. Have some shade.

[@martingsilva]

thank you! Good ideas! keep posting your adventures

[@VINNY5674]

Best video ever!

[@sampercham118]

How thick dose ply wood half to be for floor

[@andydrew4601]

what are the dimensions of the floor without the pipe insulation. as in just cut. thank you

[@elieattya8233]

you mentioned you inflated the boat in 15 minutes, was that with the hand pump it came with?

[@1billyknorr]

yes. the hand pump, pumps air on both the upstroke and down stroke. its pretty fast for a hand pump. I keep it as a backup as a have bought one the plugs into the truck.

[@fUjiMaNia]

@BackRoomLabs did you have to register this boat before you can use it on a lake? great set up by the way. I like the mods you did :-) I'm thinking of getting one too .

[@elieattya8233]

BackRoom Labs kool thx ..I just had it out this last weekend with 5 of us on it and had a good time on the lake

[@huguitomio1]

How much is the carpet??

[@1billyknorr]

It was 27 dollars from Home Depot. Marine grade 9x5. I had some left over contact cement from a previous project that I used to glue it down. Other wise I seen some containers that would do the job for around $10.

[@DanielMuvdi]

+BackRoom Labs i just find this one on home depot planing to do the same. what you think could work? thanks in advanced! www.homedepot.com/p/TrafficMASTER-Elevations-Color-Ocean-Blue-Ribbed-Indoor-Outdoor-12-ft-Carpet-7PD5N550144H/203240734

[@1billyknorr]

+daniel muvdi yes for sure. Any outdoor carpet will work. I got the cheaper stuff. I wanted what you have picked out. The stuff you are looking at will be more comfortable on your ankles n such when you are sitting in the raft. Not that the cheaper carpet hurts. It's just a little uncomfortable after sitting Indian style for some time. Good luck with your build.

[@clarkwhicks]

Hey man can give the pvc dimensions and parts used I have the same boat and like your design

[@1billyknorr]

Check resent posts for quick description. There's some info that should get you started. It's under replies. Work has been busy. I'll post a more detailed vid soon.

[@jonathanvillani1390]

can you email me the pvc dimensions and parts used I have the same boat and like your design

[@1billyknorr]

I will post another video tonight showing in more detail the floor and the pic set up with some sizes and dimensions.

[@jonathanvillani1390]

Awesome thanks ....got my floor done already you have the best canopy idea ive seen how did it test out for you?

[@jonathanvillani1390]

BackRoom Labs cant find the video you posted on the material used ect...

[@1billyknorr]

Sorry I haven't posted that vid. Work got real busy. The pipe is cpvc 1/2 inch 4 10ft sticks. Four 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 T's four 1/2 90's. 4 small bolts and 4 wing nuts to match. 4 adjustable bungee cords. Fabric is light weight 9ft x 3 ft. I will eventually post a vid with a better description. This should give you a starting point though.

[@nakoawarrior3186]

on your roof just go to a tractor supply store a and get some spring pins.

[@1billyknorr]

do I sense a hint of sarcasm are you jealous I have an inflatable raft and you don't do you have no friends do you need to get a life suck it bitch

[@nakoawarrior3186]

i thought spring pins were easier to use than bolts, duh i think id rather have a kayak with a trolling motor! yeah i don't have any friends they left with my wife, thank god, no more worries!

[@nakoawarrior3186]

for the roof use a tarp

[@1billyknorr]

I had thought about a tarp but tarps or plastic and I didn't want to hear that noise while I was on the boat so I got a fabric

[@nakoawarrior3186]

well at least you could find some good fabric

[@andytaing8887]

LOOK AT MINE, 40 HP 4 STROKE MOTOR APPROVED AND LICENSED. SIT 10 PEOPLE NO PROBLEM.

[@TheCorrectionist1984]

Andy Taing , i see it in the thumbnail it looks like but i don't see any videos on your channel.

[@preparedsurvivalist2245]

I would rather not have those pointless seat cushion things. Instead, have full open hard deck that you can set a REAL chair or two on. Then have an umbrella mount in the middle or some other clever canopy contraption.

[@1billyknorr]

I agree the inflatable seats suck. But for a $130 dollar inflatable they are acceptable. I have seen some people put down some Velcro and use fold up seats.

[@中介法联難容]

廢言太多！！！
