That Delta 2 is a real powerhouse. I like the fact that it has 1024Wh of capacity.

[@patsfanb6]

My neighbor in Camden was a retired boat builder as a kid I would go next door to play and ended up sanding and staining parts...wonder if ole red is alive..the man was genuinely a boat building or repair machine.those were the days.

[@lild6216]

His spirit lives on in you....

[@the_clockwork_jackass6897]

Isn't it amazing how some people can not only manage to convince you to do something utterly boring like sanding and finishing, but to somehow get you to enjoy it? My grandfather would do that, I remember once, I'm on my hands and knees with him, he was 70 at the time, sanding the finish off a hardwood floor, not only did I, a 13 year old kid, willingly accept, and assist him, I f*cking _enjoyed_ it, till this day, I am convinced he used some Jedi mind trick 😂

[@trex1448]

[@ThomDeGrootTDG]

Nostalgia overload huh😆

[@tris4448]

I love when the girls have time on the videos! You're a great father

[@abcdiarra]

I appreciate this so much more than those quick, sloppy builds or $500 Home Depot challenges, etc. Those always feel so wasteful and you can tell the creators will probably never touch it again after filming the videos. You’ve made something that could be enjoyed time and time again. Something you can be proud of, no matter how small or “simple”. Love this.

[@cactuscreekoutfitters]

I'll be honest. A month ago I thought this channel was going to be like all the other catch and cooks and camping blah blah blah. But I was absolutely 100% wrong. You have tons of hidden knowledge that I'm loving to watch you share with us! Keep it up man

[@kani6855]

Let’s be honest it has been like the other channels Zach hasn’t went on a exploration or 30 day challenge in a while plus waiting for 2 videos a month I forgot his channel at times

[@ghomerhust]

@@kani6855 do you suppose having all the work done at the office/shop might have something to do with it? he sorta has to BE THERE for a lot of that stuff, hence why his 3 day build right here in this very video took longer. he's still building, so he cant just be gone all the time to appease everyone in the comments. his videos are still quality content with interesting ideas. if he's just like all the others, then i guess you're also being "debbie downer" on THEIR comment sections as well?

[@kani6855]

@@ghomerhust bro what are u talking about Greg literally showed behind the scenes he has a whole team of people that take care of his shipping and editing his videos I don’t wanna hear it I get he has a family and stuff but he was so consistent years ago but once he started getting more and more views the content became slower to push out I bet I’m 20 years younger than u😭😭 Ik more about editing a video than u he makes a teaser video and doesn’t drop it for 1-2 weeks

my first video from this channel was when Zach and Greg did 30 days challenge and it was pleasure too watch seriously super. Please can we have some more of those chellenges. Bring the old man back he was showing old school and reminding me about my R.I.P uncle

[@cathyjay2569]

One word for how this TN Nana feels after watching your video: AMEN!!!

[@MichaelDevenney]

Return of the SPARROW! She has a heart for adventure, just like her pops!

[@whiteboycarl6279]

Now this build I can get behind . I already know this is going to be an amazing series . Don’t rush yourself with timelines it’s better to take time and build something you will reuse time and time again rather than rushing the build and only using it once or twice before it falls apart. Either way I enjoyed this video and I look forward to the next

[@EonBreakfast]

Yeah we already have AYOfishing for rush builds

This brought back memories I grew up on a house boat, but not the rich people type my pawpaw and his brother stole a barge after a hurricane and cut it in half. It was a 2 bedroom house with a floating boat dock. God I miss that thing. It was on the sabine river in Louisiana

[@rossgrady]

It was so cool to get to see you really showcasing your boat building skills! It is a whole different facet to the channel, and I found it fascinating to watch.

[@Sledgefist1]

Watching this I was like “why is he building a boat?” And then it hit me! Watching the introductions of Alone I saw his job title “boat builder”. HECK YEAH! Now I can tell I’m a true fan because that was about 2 years ago. 😎

[@elijahmcgeorge5198]

I would recommend for your fishing gear getting a way to store it on the underside of the roof

[@Slydog43UTube]

House boat, that is stretching it. Love your vids, thanks

[@01smileyface]

you can put outriggers on either side to stabilize it. maybe even use a hammock with an outrigger setup. 👍 this is going to be a cool series

[@leeandracrowningshield4983]

Hey, I would love to see you and Sara do a 30 or more day's challenge in the rockies. Your awesome love you man!

[@jayscholl4193]

It was actually nice not seeing Sarah for once.

[@robinhood9306]

He'd actually would get arrested if they'd do it

[@grunthum110154]

I’m so glad that though you found yourself well behind schedule, you still took it out for a maiden voyage! And I vote for canvas sides. Most of all, thank you for acknowledging the goodness of the Lord!

[@LallySegars]

You could add some pontoons to the sides of it. That would make you stable and would look pretty cool. Maybe even add a water hammock to them!

[@johnnyharperscoutstable5386]

Two pontoons for stability, they double as flip top gear storage. Dry box with ventilation for ecoflow. House boat survival challenge. I got the saltwater minkota, things are great. Can’t wait to see this thing fully decked out. 🐸🍺🔪🔥

[@jackpiveeo5538]

I love the long videos that you do I love these kind of videos they are my favorite!

[@deniseramirez6117]

Don't wait too long in between visiting your brother. I just lost mine and it is soooo hard to not have him here. And my other brother is just about devastated. Brotherly bond and all. He was only 64. Life is so short. Don't procrastinate that visit!!

[@OdinMan64]

Wow Zach you and your brother do look quite a bit alike it’s the Fowler DNA that’s got strong 💪🏼 resemblance.

[@georgemartinez1724]

Every time I see your daughter's it almost makes me break down because I have two daughters but unfortunately I'm not in their lives because I'm an addict. Watching your videos brings me joy gets me out of my head for a while I pray to God everyday that I will get better and be able to be a part of my family's lives like you are.. I wish I could support everything by buying some merch but unfortunately I can't even take care of myself right now.. Thanks for everything fowler. Much love

[@tfc_ej9111]

awww, his daughter playing minecraft is so cute

[@eriklarson2183]

Sooo, yes the idea of using weatherproof/canvas tent material to enclose the boat would be epic. Snaps for sure but Velcro will work. Cut each section to fit between all the ceiling supports. This will allow you to open and close all the sections independently (great for at night for fishing from bed or say during the day if its raining). Also make sure you include a screen window on each side that you can roll up for air flow at night or daytime. 1 of 2 suggestions. #1 - place both battery packs 1/2 way up the hull (or get everything in the boat and then decide where to put them based on load weight/balance in the water). #2 - mount your aft/rear anchor's with Scotty 620767 #276 Anchor Lock w/ #241 Side Deck Mount(s). Your mushroom anchor can hang from the bow to add more stabilization for cruising the waters and a YakGear Bruce Coastal Anchor for the rear to dig in and keep you in place. I have both anchors and the drop system on my 10' Bass buggy and it plants us even on the smaller swift rivers with no issues and we are loaded down (600+ LBS).

[@olof.aolsson8441]

Tip from a boat mechanic. Put some heavy weight under the boat, in the centerline lengthwize. that will make it more stable

[@ericwalkr910]

[@grumpyjay37]

Zach...buddy please 🙏 lose the man bun!! lol 🤣😆🤣

[@angrybird9925]

Fowler.. you're a beast. And I get what ur trying to do. But it's just so labour intensive I feel like you get going down a well you can't escape when doing these projects. It's supposed to be quick and simple in the beginning but by the end it becomes a work of art. You're a great dad and craftsman. I just get a bit confused by your process. I will always watch. But maybe I've had too much whiskey to really understand what you're up to here.

[@Owenyoung363]

You inspire me so much doing this stuff I am 13 and I want to be just like you when I grow up you are my inspiration I love you man keep up the great work

[@Krystalized_Gacha]

Haven't even watched the video and already know its gonna be great

[@outdoorsforachange]

I have mad respect for this guy. He owns the genre at this point. He not only has great ideas but he works his butt off to make them real.

[@AmberlynWhite]

And produces them with high quality and quickly.

[@Fishcentral]

Oh boyyyy i just stumbled upon Treasure! I used to watch Zachery when i was smaller with my friends. We would watch Zachary's vids and copy everything that he would do in them! we were fascinated with the slingshots he made and we made our own lol . You were an inspiration to us Zachery! glad I found your channel!

[@naturegirl8248]

I'm working on the same thing! Mine is bigger and I'm working on it by myself, so it's taking a little longer than if I had help, but I'm looking forward to using it🙏

[@thisoneworks]

Do a real house boat renovation! That's a good series waiting to happen. It would be building (great series for lots of a different demographic than your used to) and then it would be alot of camping, fishing, exploring with family and friends (and your new wife, when that happens)

[@kingrafa3938]

This is a cool build Zach. Can't wait for you to complete the build and use it for another fun and exciting adventure.

[@aidanoconnor1276]

You and Greg need to go back ok alone!! That season was the best

[@rdrockett1]

Modify your bed with hinges and hidden compartments for extra room that will also put some ballast down low

[@Thescidude1]

Impressed by your boatbuilding experience. Very respectable.

[@Phaggable]

My feedback for stability put the eco flow batteries in the front of the boat and add outrigger floats so you have very little worries. Perhaps something like this to make it easy and replacable as well as being able to put it on another boat. Taruor 2pcs Kayak PVC Inflatable Outrigger Float.

[@nagjrcjasonbower]

One of your best videos IMHO... Thank you for keeping it long and inspirational with attention to detail. Kind of like the “New Yankee Workshop” from back in the day... Keep up the good work and God bless!!!

[@ravenpineshomestead]

Very glad things are working out, love that you can follow your passions 💪

[@kinn1647]

Add 4 big quad tyres /wheels as Out Riggers and a hand crank winch Self launching Keep the wheels under water line 30L of air per wheel. Or use them dumbbells as a keel under the boat. 👍

[@casstaylor6125]

Fowler you should have Millions on subscribers your videos are so entertaining and genuine. I love how simple, but so talented you are. Cant wait to see more on this series. You sir are amazing! I also miss Sarah when she is not on video with you. She could at least stop by and say hello...

[@jasonmeade9000]

This is the power station that I need. Love the fact that I can expand it to 3kWh.

[@jivjav100]

so many talents, great friend, instructor, and dad. youtubes even blessed to have you.

[@jivjav100]

also add some side floatation barrels so you can lean more sitting

[@Jib230181]

Awesome build so far but I defo would put some kind of side stabiliser to help stop the rocking but still looks fun.

[@calebhudson9074]

It would add more weight but you could make sidewalls that fold down with pontoons for stabilizers. Then it would also give you kind of a platform on each side depending on how thick you make it. Love the builds. Waiting for Waterworld 2!

[@CobCeo]

Great to watch you work on this! Thank you.

[@ukrainiak2592]

Cool build man. Definitely appreciate all the hard work that goes into what you guys do. I was thinking, maybe a couple of fold down outriggers on the back half for stability?

[@tabby92]

I love the builds you do and seeing them all come together is so cool. You and Kevin from modern self reliance should do a project together. That would be so cool to see what you guys could come up with. Edit. 😂 I hadn't finished the video before my comment and just got to the part when you bring up modern self reliance.

Love these kind of videos

[@ghomerhust]

love this little build! i do like the idea of going with nylon for the walls tho, keeps the weight down up high since it's a little tippy anyway, shallow draft and all, and on nice days, you can roll em up and enjoy the air and sun. its a cute little buggar

[@quinnquenneville4518]

Hey Zachary I’m a big fan! Your dad actually introduced me to your Chanel I went to Stafford technical center in Rutland Vermont for woodworking and your dad was the teacher (Mr Fowler).

[@douglaswilliams99]

Maybe a couple outriggers with cargo net. Stability and storage. Thanks for taking the time to share 👍

[@ironmidg]

I was thinking the same thing about the canopy sides, save weight, less top heavy, better view and probably less air drag to save power when moving.

[@jyrex978]

What about adding stabilizers to each side of the boat? If you do any shelving you'll just make it more top heavy which will make it more tippy. Adding stabilizers will help with that. :)

[@CompulsiveLegoBuyer]

Honestly I’d be lost without my weekly updates from you and Greg! This seemed like a fun little experiment, although I do think I’d have to go with the tote float myself if I had to choose a homemade vessel just for the extra real estate 😅 hoping all is well in your world Zach!

[@juliedoyel8923]

Dang, is there nothing you can't do, lol. Love this! Miss your adventures with your girls.

[@johnbagaas3345]

If it were me, I would definitely consider some detachable, or fold-up pontoons for stability... like empty water dispenser bottles... also I would probably make the hard roof 3/4 the length it is now (enough to cover the bed deck) and have the very back (galley / fishing area) covered with canvas when needed but during fishing it can be rolled up and out of the way for better movement, landing fish, casting .... great project... can't wait to see it finished.

[@SlugLamer]

I have seen roofed fishing boats where they have added a net underneath the roof, tightened way up underneath, so you can basically push anything you have in your hands that moment up between the net and the roof - it's like a boat-rocking-proof shelf, I guess. I'd add that if I were you. In addition, maybe consider some keel/weight management to avoid rocking so much about. Fun project :)

[@dontworrydehappy7104]

For your canoe - chop it in half and make bookshelves. That weathered wood will look amazing! Find some other weathered wood for shelves. Love your house boat!
