These pontoon videos reminded me so much of my younger days. Boy Scouts building a 32 foot pontoon boat from steel drums and taking a two week trip up the Tennessee river and it's tributaries like the Little T and Hiwassee. Thank you. Good memories and your kids will remember this big time. Also when I was 17 I paddled the Swanee river for a week on a canoe trip and loved it. Good stuff!
@chud3276 жыл бұрын
I think your boy scout troop was a bit more adventurous than the one I was in. We did build a lot of cool stuff, towers and bridges. Our river trip was a 50 mile, 3 day and two night trip down the St. Marys river. I will remember that trip for the rest of my life. Would have been even cooler on a homemade 32 foot party barge. Maybe next summer I can do an extended trip down the Suwannee River hitting several spring on the way down. Thanks for your comment make me want to go boating again right now.

One more thing I'd like to share with you. If you are ever looking for a cheap weedless prop for a homemade trolling motor you will find them in scrap whirlpool refrigerators in the ice maker unit . You will also find a good stainless steel rod holder. I worked in a plastic injection molding plant and the machines I worked on made parts for Whirlpool. Rip apart an old unit and put the propeller looking part on a weedeater and it has quite a bit of thrust . I suppose because the blades are built into a narrow cylinder. I made one once but only tried it in a large metal trash can and it emptied it in no time.

This is about the size I want for a pontoon boat, I have a 5 HP 4 cycle Honda boat motor looking for a boat and this design would be ideal and so is the budget. Just need to locate some plastic drums and find out the cost . I like the storage wells and a great place to sit when operating the motor , so not hunched over like I was when i had my aluminum boat. I may use 3/4 pressure treated wood for the decking . the points on the front of the pontoons would make great coolers ( water cooled ) Now you got me thinking :)

I would imagine that those "diverters" as you called them, probably made a noticeable difference in speed and/or fuel mileage since the front of those barrels are no longer plowing the water. I was hoping you might comment on it, but unfortunately you didn't.

Greetings to you chud327 Very cool concept this pontoon boat, brilliantly made. How much fun can one have, without spending a fortune? Watching you, gives away some of the answers, I think.

Fill the barrels with expanding liquid foam.

That would take 330 gallons of foam... Thanks for watching.

That is awesome. I'm guessing since you have a hotel, you are not from Gilchrist county.

Love that Idea, I think the two front boxes would work. I just need to do some fishing soon. Thanks for watching.

might want to pressurize those barrels about 10-15 psi. not criticizing the project, its nice. I'd done the 4hp briggs to 6hp lower unit thing, fast enough for how little fuel it really used.

Next time it will do some pressure in the barrels... I am looking for a little more speed, but it sure is fun just like it is. Thanks for watching.
