More like T is for talking. You can use that no charge
its less than 475' so you can safely call it a boat
I would say be very cautious with the hot tub idea. Water weighs a lot, and by putting it that far forward you will put a lot of extra stress on the boat and you will lose a lot of performance. Between the affect on the weight balance and it also adding a lot more drag in the water, it probably will not be very fast and much more inefficient. I recommend making it easily removable, so that if it does create a lot of issues, you can remove it and put in a flat piece of deck.
Sorry guy. In the South we call this a "houseboat". Been using them for years on the rivers. They work great cheap and very usable. Motors are usually out board but can be in board or outdrive. I spent my youth on them and they are amazing. We have people that build these routinely in Louisiana.
Love the ambition….please eliminate the hot tub…or make it where you drain it before getting under way. The hot tub is going to kill the project, but you’ll find out too late….
It will be interesting to see the end of your project .
Seems like a houseboat hull with extra steps
I think you should keep the hydrodynamic pointed nose cones and use them at both ends of the elongated pontoons for top speed, low wake, choppy water stability, and fuel mileage considerations. Then you would only need to weld a ring between the two pontoons, with an X of aluminum inside for strength. Also could be able to reverse at higher speeds allowing for emergency maneuvers. Also would look cooler. IMHO
And I vote for the second level supports to look like this… IXI IXI IXI
Plus make it a jet drive with insta stop feature like DGS. 🤣🤣🤣Send em flyin!!
I never seen this many recommendation comments on a video before. Its like all the boat aficionados and naval engineers came out of the woodwork for this one.
B is for Boat. Make an underwater level with a bedroom in it. It'll help with balance and also underwater viewing when the water's clear if you fit marine windows.
Yes build the kayak ðŸ‘ÂÂ
Hittin em with the Jean Claude Van Damme in the thumbnail!
B is for Balloon next? 🎉
I haven't heard that phrase "Government work" in a very long time, takes me back to my Navy days !
I think with the amount of stuff your putting on there the boat might need to be a tri-toon just to be on the safe side
this has to be a joke
You should try to include his cool door into one of your next builds. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/TP4M2ENlEpU
Yes! Kayak those!!! Lol
Can’t wait to see how the yachtoon turns out!!
LOL I love it….there is no planing but I get what youre trying to splain. I hope they dont fold due to the length…..May need to run some aluminum trussing on the top.
Where do you drive the boat from?
Your long floats are going to flex due to waves. Especially with a lot of weight on both front and back. Im worried the aluminium is going to fatigue and the project is gonna end on the bottom.
Weightdistribution is going to be crucial this project. You should build it to withstand the roughest weather, since the weather can turn bad real quick when ur out on the water.
Best of luck to ya!
Put the toilet holding tank under the stairs ??
this is the kind of ridiculous but plausible stuff i like to see!
Will you be able to get it out the door ??😃
I would definitely consider buying an R69 lol, that is still one of my favorite builds.
