thanks good video, great tips . Watching from Argentina 👍

[@tomulator]

A battery box / power station is a good investment. These are typically made of high-impact moulded plastic and will insulate the battery from the ground as well...just keep the battery in the box.

[@Kurskaja_Narodnaja_Respublika]

The battery shell would take on the moisture of the floor, as with the wooden encasement, creating an electrical current between the battery cells causing them to discharge.

About tip #5. I am living in aprartment. Oct to March I will not use boat and leave folded. What will be consequences?

[@ItsTippToppFishing]

The bits of materials on the folds might start to fade aswell as the seals might suffer a bit. I also live in a small place so my boat often lives folded up in my trailer. Rather have a boat with a shorter life span than not have a boat at all is my thoughts behind it.

[@dozamm]

@@ItsTippToppFishing That's good thought.

[@Raid0u]

hows your boat holding out? i just bought one xD and after it gets too cold to fish I plan to store it (folded for same reason)

[@Bushlove420]

Is this place next to brookwood ?

[@ItsTippToppFishing]

Yes

[@jasonkasselman5619]

Where did you get your boat from?

Is this boat as big as the fox 180 boat? Really want something compact like this one?

[@ItsTippToppFishing]

This one is 2.2m long I think

A seal has come out of place inside the valve of my bark inflatable. How do I get the valve assembly apart to refit the seal please?

[@ItsTippToppFishing]

No idea! If that happened to my boat, I'd take it in so the pros can fix it. Nothing worse than a leaking valve when you on the water.

[@mickcreedon7847]

@@ItsTippToppFishing Contacted the supplier, there is a special wrench that is used to take out the valve to refit the seals.

[@jeromehernandez9313]

Ok so you wanted to know why to not leave your battery on the ground because the mental in the concrete wether it rebar or wire mesh it grounds out the battery

[@6___________99_____________64]

That's a perpetuated myth.

[@ujtchanel3157]

Small boat but ok for fishing

[@ItsTippToppFishing]

It gets me out on the water:-)

[@schmirgldecks]

about the battery....Nikola Tesla can tell you why

[@fabianallison2337]

you must never put any form of car or deep cell battery on the floor it can really mess it up

[@dwightstewart7181]

Why? The contents of a battery are completely sealed (insulated) in plastic, so are never in direct contact with (grounded to) whatever the battery is sitting on. Based on that, I see no reason why there would be any harm in sitting the battery wherever it's convenient. And, yes, I'm an electrician.

[@fabianallison2337]

@@dwightstewart7181 ok fine your phone is covered in plastic yet you can charge it by putting it on a charge matt when you put a wet cell battery on the floor it will discharge and or even bend the cells inside making the battery short out on the inside

[@dwightstewart7181]

@@fabianallison2337 .. Guy, the design of a vehicle battery is vastly different than that of a phone. The plastic is much thicker, for example. Again, you're not going to damage or discharge a vehicle battery just by placing it on a floor - or leaving it sitting on the metal inside your vehicle.
