THE ULTIMATE FISHING VAN CONVERSION

[@philanthropist1241]

Leaks Galore Man !!!🪣🌧

[@williamwatson3810]

Hi Adam I don't want to dampen your enthusiasm but it might be a good idea if you put some waterproof sealant around those rivets on your roof, also if your going sleep in there you'll need ventilation otherwise everything that's in there will get soaked with condensation. With using a diesel heater a carbon monoxide detector is a must. Great video though.

[@tallshort1849]

Where would you put the vent?

[@williamwatson3810]

I'd fit a max air fan in the roof and take out part or all the bulkhead and fit wind deflectors on the side windows so you can leave the windows slightly open without the rain getting in and create a airflow through the van.@@tallshort1849

​@@williamwatson3810 👍

[@sasmicky71]

😅one windows

[@rickystephenson518]

More than likely sleeping with the side door open. Quick access to the rods when he gets a bite. But monoxide detector is a must.

[@martin4787]

You should have fitted rubber grommets for the cables to pass through the holes you drilled, in order to stop the insulation on the cables from rubbing through Adam.

[@BuyOneGetOneFree]

Also stops water leaking through…

[@bobfor4868]

Good luck Adam. I'm sure you'll overcome any challenges along the way! 👍💪

[@michaelkemp8895]

Oh to be young! Well done that man, I’m sure you’ll iron out any glitches as you go. Good luck. 👍

[@karlpearson8032]

Brilliant transformation from open van space to the ultimate fishing camper van👍

[@robwalmsley8235]

Great project...you have skills for sure....with all sincerity please go back up top , drill out the pop rivets and fit a proper cable gland or grommets around those cables.....youre gonna have a fire for sure and a nasty water leak at very best until the cables short out on the body and catch fire....not being negative honestly..... a best friend would tell you this.....get it done fella....and enjoy your excellent hard work for longer...... tight lines

[@martprice7726]

Nice to see somebody doing it simple for a change, instead of spending a fortune on a vehicle that eventually end up in a scrapyard

[@AaronCarpAngler-UK]

Brilliant Im sure you’ll keep adding and tweaking along the way looks brilliant pal 🙌

[@1dowsey]

Fair do's mate enjoyed watching that. Just bought a Ford Custom with 20k on the clock and will be using a few of your ideas to convert that

[@chrishullah5000]

'I'll wake up dead' Made me laugh that did😂😂😂😂👍

[@markward8216]

Well impressed with your handy man skills. Hope you have loads of fun

[@jamesatkinsfishing]

Very good Adam, i have one aswell and love it, go on holidays but i haven't used it for fishing YET, Thank you for shearing your build with us,

[@Fozzie68]

Great enthusiasm Adam but LACKING THE BASIC SAFETY FEATURES !! I didn’t see any over current protection devices ie inline fuses / circuit breakers connected in the battery/solar panel circuit . GROMMETS are a MUST when passing electrical cables through un -burred metal holes. You can find professional electrical tips on basic electrical practices on KZbin, once you’ve weeded out the RUBBISH. What you don’t want Adam is a van fire, caused by DODGY WIRING !! Best of luck.

[@garywagstaff8104]

Looks wicked Adam be watching

[@tezzaskayakfishing]

“I’ll wake up dead” 😂😂🤙

[@samhirst7331]

Buzzin mate absolite buzzin. Csnt wait for this journey. Just hope you sealed some of the holes you drilled especially the ones for the solar panel. Defo get a carbon monoxide detector too mate. Cracking job though cant wait for the future videos now

[@gdad60s]

Eh well done lad few more bits to be done which im sure get round to fantastic fishing van

[@karlwatkins2331]

You've done well there Adam lad hope yr trip goes well mate I'll be waiting 🎣👊💯

[@Jayr1990]

Really like your blogs mate just be careful ❗️

[@spartacus72]

Great Job Adam better then sleeping at the Ritz Hotel 5 STAR VIDEO.

[@tstan73]

Brill that is mate well done … what’s it like to use ?

[@bertrude95]

Great vid as always Adam. Havnt you Don this b4 on another van a few year back

[@barbaraneville5036]

As a couple of others have stated Please fit a carbon monoxide detector Only about £10 for a battery operated one could save your life and consider some sort of roof vent & floor vent as fitted in caravans & campers Looks pretty good as a basic fishing van .🙂

[@Paul-ly9ed]

Well done ,good job👍🏻

[@stevebell8552]

What happened to the van you did before Adam ?

[@GoneFishingVlog]

That’s quality lad 👊🏻 some adventures to be had in this beaut 🎣 I have only one question 🙋🏼‍♂️ do you not need some air vents with the heater running and for like when you are cooking 🍳 . I’m definitely jealous 😂😂 I’ve got a 4 day session starting today I’ll be thinking of you warm in your van when I’m soaked and frozen 😂😂

[@landieman6044]

I would run a split charge relay from the engine charging circuit, solar panels are OK for trickle charging but takes ages if the battery gets low

[@karlwatkins2331]

Spot on advise william

[@__john85__]

Great Job 🚐🤙

[@VikingExplores]

Can you list parts and where from

[@markymarkthelabman7639]

Happy days👍

[@Mecca0607]

Well done looks mint

[@lukerees2400]

Looking good!! I’d be wanting a window in that side door so I can sit and watch the lake 😂

[@AdamsFishingAdventures]

Full stealth mode

[@paulscarah5467]

Splash back for your cooking will keep the carpet clean

[@fishingsammystyle8682]

Come and see me in Perpignan. I'll put the kettle on.

[@ianhargreaves4978]

Just put foam on the frame then there is your bed boom

[@JustBasicFishing]

My ocd wishing he cleaned & washed the van before he started🥲😭

[@victorblb2602]

You can put the bed upside down and have more space

[@AdamsFishingAdventures]

How will I sleep

[@ExperimentalAngler]

Jealous .... cracking van set up.

[@swisstony662]

Couple of points you need to silicone roof it will leek like a twat lol 2nd point cables will rub on metal and short out IE FIRE 🔥 Wats bad in a van 3rd point roof vent 4th heater should av gone near back doors easier filling 5th when solar. Is crap IE winter you need a DC to DC charger from altonater to house battery when vans running it's free power Other than that it's miles better than a bivvy

[@bogdanrazvan4294]

Really? "Ultimate" van conversion and drilling the roof and no sealeant applied at solar cables and rivets? That is sick

[@rickystephenson518]

Carbon monoxide alarm plz.don’t want to wake up dead ☠️

[@lookbackfilms6268]

how not to install solar panels 🤣

[@Belekas-r6p]

Good for camping not for fishing, because not many places you can park your van next to pond or lake 🤦‍♂️

[@DavidScobie]

Sorry my dude for being negative. If it was me doing this I'd have lined the sides floor and ceiling with sound deadening coating and some insulation. Sleeping in a van is cold at night buddy apart from that good effort.
