I want oneeeeeeeee

Thanks everyone for the positive feed back. I have a few people here locally interested me bulding them a boat. I have one interested in a version set up to duck hunt. with a little highher seat, gun holders and dog platform. I have a few ideas I hope we can work something out to get the project underway. Also have a lady wanting one. I may have to break out the pink paint.

i think that village photo has blown up, most of my pics are on their site but it seems that they have disappeared.

Took the new boat to the water for the first time. I was pleased with how it floated me. I cant wait to get a motor on this thing, it shoud be alot of fun. As i thought it sits a little high for flippers but with the trolling motor it will be fine.

What the hell is a water wagon

I was a foam type boat made years ago somewhere in Texas. if you look on this forum you you will see a few.Most people who had them seemed to love them.

I guess that village photo has went up in flames most of the pics that I had up of the other boats were hosted by them.

I am putting these pics up because village photo has went down and they took all the previous pics with them.

Well this is a little different. I built this for my brother in law"s mother in law for a christmas gift.I dont think she will have to worry about being seen on the water. I built this one in about 5 days. 1 sunday and 4 evenings after work. It was short notice but all and all it turned out ok.

She'll know if anyone steals it..

You are right. it would be hard to hide something like that.

Those are some sweet looking rides man!

Thank you. each one is a little different. i think i have as much fun building them as using them.

Where in world did you find foam that size, I live around the Detroit area. I can't find anything that size. See ya

I built all the boats on this forum with the exception of the folding boat from recycled shipping foam. If you go to tractor supply or anywhere that sells utility trailers they should have it laying everywhere. They use it as spacers while shipping the trailers.It is about 19 inches by 12 inches by 12 inches . Some places will give it to you other will not. I also can get it from a local hardware store where I live.

Working on another 5 ft kicker this one will have som additional foam under the seat for a little extra flotation for my big but. May add some wheels and a few other goodies.

This I the frame of number 6 this will be the third, 5 footer that I have built, this onw will hace additional foam under the seat.

YUUUUP!

This is number 6, it has a small cooler, additional foam under the seat
And it will have wheels, I am still working on this one,

Could you send your email address to splitends1@comcast.net. I would like to ask you a few things. Thank you Ray Boley

So are the frames like 1/2 aluminum tubing?

All my boats are make of a combination of 1/2 in and 3/4 in EMT electrical conduit

Sumo,


How do you keep the blocks of foam in place, do you glue them together? are you welding your frame?


thanks


drp

The foam blocks are gluedtogether, the frame also is made in a way that also prevents the blocksof foam from coming apart, the frames are welded.
