That is pretty cool. Are you going to register it so you can take it out on Lake Grapevine?

I got the pond prowler registered and am getting the papers together to register this as home made boat. Tested motors on it and found out a 5hp is too much for my taste. I turned it to quick and took a swim. So a 2-4hp will work.

Did you keep track of the material cost and the number of hours spent?

Unknown hrs but if I figured if I could make any money in it? About $1.00 per hour. Material cost 200-$250 If your trying to save money over the 8’ pond prowler for $499 at basspro you won’t save money. I just like building things for MYSELF.

I have a couple of Hobie Float Cats which I currently haul around in a pickup. It seems that you could stack 3 or 4 of those in a pickup bed if you tied them down.

Very cool Jay!
Looks like a blast of a boat. **I am 99% sure I know where you took those photos. I need to get my new pass. Have not been out there yet this year! One of my favorite places to fish in my kayak.
**ON WEEKDAYS ONLY. Gets crazy over there on weekends. Down right dangerous.

Neat! Those Johnson 2 HP engines remind me of one I was given in Venezuela about '91. My Venezuelan buddy called it a "liquidora": Blender!
