Hi from new zealand (north island) That looks amazing already great work .it would be interesting to use the middle pontoons for outriggers

nonya buisness imagine what you could get done if you worked rather than watched KZbin.

[@Booma69]

G'Day Jeff from Aussie. I love what you have done so far mate and you are all going to have a mess of fun. Just an idea about the front to stop any wind pressure is to maybe have some canvas wrapped around the two front posts and tied down to the sides of the cabin. That way after you get where you need to be you can drop the canvas down to maybe a guard rail height around the front porch. A 12v dc pump connected to a tap for a shower and washing up also run some pipes to the front for rinsing off when your filleting the cats. It would work like in a caravan (RV). Anyway mate you and your lovely daughter have a great time and stay safe.

[@joeturner5950]

You are a beast sir, being able to get that much done that quick. It looks amazing on top of it. Good job. I can't wait to see it all done.

[@agentstrickland]

[@ck_sidekick8306]

By the time you frame up bunks, get 4 people in that thing and all your gear, top heavy isn't gonna be an issue. As long as most of the weight is at the bottom, its gonna be fine. I would worry less about out riggers than I would about just making sure you can put anything heavy at the floor.

[@redwood9741]

100 % agree

[@Kingfisher1215]

Keep looking for longer steering cables from a junk boat. Hundreds of boat yards on the Chesapeake with abandoned boats to get cable from. Gotta be the same there. Then could could put a flybridge on it. Marsh grass camo for paint. Great job!!

[@dennismorrill685]

Just a thought hinge your front porch roof down to cover your window

[@teekay1785]

@diver dave totally agree no legs needed

[@Kingfisher1215]

You mean they fold, up and down?

[@bobwashingtonstate673]

As long as the pontoons with frame and deck weigh more that the upper cabin et al your ok . Probably an 65% bottom to a 35% cabin et al. It probably would have been beneficial to weigh the frame with motor, hardware, etc before starting the cabin in order to know the ratios. Looks great guys. I'm sure it will give you lots of fun and enjoyment.

If you are going to inswing your front door you might want to add a couple 2x4 cleats that you can slide into wall mounted brackets when you are running down the highway. Looks great and definitely you guys are thinking through things successfully on the fly!!!

[@johnmeyers5125]

Could always put some nascar style vents on the roof and vent that overpressure while you pull it down the HWY

[@heaven-is-real]

Wow That will be a nice great outdoors kitchen to fry catfish in, Jeff. (All you need now is a frying pan. Be sure to bolt a fire extinguisher to the wall. Safety first.)

[@k5edd128]

Cameras would help with navigation, mount a screen just in front of the steering wheel be like playing a video game. Big Smile!

[@hawkeye1836]

Damn, great minds think alike. I been thinking that, the first time I saw the set-up, camera for driving, and all round for security.

[@redwood9741]

Looks really good..sounds like you have a good plan. THE side barrels are a great idea ..and you might just store them in the front as you travel down the road to protect your porch from the wind... I don't think you have to worry about being top heavy. Your main weight is low...your fine ! .the only thing you might need is more weight in the front to ride level..but I guess you won't know on that until you put her in the water... Dam you are a fast builder 100 % Cheers from Alaska.

[@ShaneZettelmier]

The V shaped wind breaker on the front... don’t make it part of the boat, make it part of the trailer. Just build up the front of the trailer up there and you could weld it with steel and just put a couple of panels on there to shoot the airflow out to the sides and angle it up over the top. Then you don’t have to modify anything on the boat or add weight to it or have some thing you have to take on and off every single time you just make it part of the trailer and it protects the boat when you’re driving down the road and then you just dump the boat in the water and that part stays on the trailer.

[@gerardmcgivern8854]

That’s a great shout....would deflect the wind to the sides and over the front cabin face. 👍

[@jeffbarron70]

[@scottscott6794]

[@parrotbill9072]

Stability...the coast guard checks out charter boats for stability with water barrels to determine how many people they can take out. After you splash you might give them a call to find out how many barrels to use and where to place them. Not for them to come out, because you're not a charter boat, but to do a personal test for piece of mind. I think they usually use 6 55 gallon drums of water, just to find out how far over the boat will list on either side. Maybe there is a formula based on how wide & long the boat is, to how many barrels to use. Also with pontoon boats use 2 anchors one on each to outer pontoon, out on a 40° angle to reduce swinging on the hook. I spent 20yrs on the water and learned little rid bits like that.

Hey Jeff. First, awesome job. Like you daughter said, you are a beast. Couple of questions. Are you going to put some insulation panels on the inside? it will help the air-conditioner. Second what do you think about putting some solar panels up on the roof? If you build a frame up on the roof and have about a three inch air gap between the roof and the solar panels that will give you some shade for the boat and give you some free power to run or charge your electronics. Cheers.

Lookin' good Jeff!! Good ol' Boiled Linseed Oil. A coat/day for a week, a coat a week for a month, a coat a month for a year, and then one coat annually there after. I missed (originally) that it'll mostly just be hanging out in the water at one place. I was of the understanding you'd be hauling it here/there, running all around in it. How you did the front overhang makes perfect sense with your intended use. Could'a gone old school sailing, and instead of bunks, hammocks. No better sleeping than one of those. For "oh no, gotta go NOW" moments, a composting toilet in the changing room would be perfect. Two buckets, one to store full of sawdust, the other with a seat mounted on it. Have a trash liner in it, toss some sawdust in the bag, seal it up and put a fresh liner in it... fresh and ready for the next time. No smell lingering that way. Anyhow, looks like a great camp on the water.

Hey Pops, you can think outside the circle too sometimes, on that back door worried about opening into the bunk beds, actually seems a bit narrow for regular door too, you can whip up a flap door, hinges on top, and door is cut in mid section with hinges, so you can fold door in half and flip it up outside and hang above with a hook.

[@danieldeanmasterfinisher4715]

Looks great Jeff. Only thing I see that I might have done differently is the front roof I would have hinged it so it would have folded down and would have protected your front windows as well. Other then that awesome job so far. I’m a carpenter myself and I understand building on the fly and you use what ya got on hand to save time and money. I like the fact you didn’t compromise the Roof with ventilation. Leaks are a pain in the Rump....if you really need to add ventilation fan or whatever consider putting it high on a wall near the back where the gas and motor is at ...not the roof.... just a thought!!!
