Modify your boat at your own risk.
I've got a camp on a lake in northern Maine that is north south oriented with mountains on both sides. The wind picks up and drives through the range and will push 4 foot white caps at 4 foot intervals down the lake at about 6 miles an hour on the regular. I built my 12ft sea nymph a lot like that boat, and it's solid in the waves. I usually don't go full throttle, but can keep it on plane, and above the green water on the worst of days. Thank you for all the inspiration to build tiny boats better!
Maine 🤙
Damn. That sounds intense. Sounds like where a frost troll would retire. I bet it looks amazing. Such a beautiful state.
Baddest video to date. It shows conviction to your passion. 14 feet of tin bucking white caps like a champ and no regrets. Live hard bro.
God bless 🙌👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
YAASIR!
I fish Lake Havasu in a 19ft fiberglass skeeter. Ur a trooper for going out in that weather haha
Rule #1 know your vessels limitations on the water and plan accordingly. In other words tiny boats ,rough water and big waves do not mix. Lake Erie taught me and others that.
Been there done that weather is a bitch sometimes and drops down on you fast. Having a boat that can handle it enough to get back is a must. Looks like you did a great job even though at times your balls felt like they were in a sling lol.
😆
Brings back memories of last year fishing with Mike. Both days were like the one in the videos. Man, you did that in a 14ftr, props to you!
Yeah this was much worse lol
@@TinyBoatNationjust get a bigger boat for about the same price or less and have room for all your stuff then pay attention to the weather problem solved why make things intentionally harder and less safe? I get that your the ultimate badass and everything fearless warrior of the sea but come on lol
People take a little fishing boat and put all the raised decks and tall fishing chairs on and it raises the center of gravity and makes things scary when the water gets a little choppy. I bought a 16 foot aluminum boat that had been converted into a so-called bass boat and removed all of the raised decks put in a lower floor and made it back into a great stable fishing boat again. You want comfort and pretty go get a pontoon boat and put a recliner on it…
Cool story
I have a Tracker 1036 rigged out and I've been there with those waves 4 and a half horse just not enough you need a 9.9 at the very least great videos man keep them coming God bless
Great Video Most lakes here near Phoenix Arizona are really high pressure lakes. Lake Pleasant by far is the worst since its the closet to the valley. My daughter and I mainly fish a electric only lake since my boat only has trolling motors. Tempe town lake is electric only. you can't even have a out on the transoms. Plus a permit is required. Fishing is pretty good. I haven't caught too many bass. I mainly anchor and fish so my daughter and I can put lines in the water and hangout and chill together. Creating memories that last a lifetime!
Thanks for all your great videos.
Stay safe everyone!
Happy fishing!

Does adding foam to the inside hatches increase the weight limit as well as helping not sink if capsized
Cockpits or in the very least a low area to stand wide and sit low in is key for rough weather. Need low floors in lake erie when winds pick up. 4 ft waves with 15 ft trough is about as rough as my 14ft goes into.
I know this stuff is like every day for you guys out there. Must be fun.
@@TinyBoatNation yes fun... But also got to stay aware. One wrong move and you will be testing how much floatation you have and the effectiveness of your life jackets.
They only suck when it gets windy. I noticed you had a mountain range in the video. I would guess the wind gets pretty crazy coming off those mountains. This boat would be perfect for a small to mid sized lake in minnesota.
9:16 I did the same on my boat. Glad I had to tear it apart when I got the parts from TBnation. I’m going to take your advice and add a riser to the tilt.
Dame Mike your the I live not far from you and fish some gnarly areas been learning a ton from ya hope to run into you some day keep it up brother
Hope to see yuh out there!
Good work man that’s a beast of a tiny boat 👏
Thank God you made it home.
Facts
Love it! I drive my old alumacraft v14 like that
Ya, I’ve got an old V14 Alumicraft. Deep ,a thick hull plus the V hull with a 15 Evinrude all translates into tuff boat that might save your bacon some day. Have you modified your V14 at all? I’m thinking of removing the center seat on mine but I know it’s a lot stronger with it in place.
@@kentyler966 not sure if they ever changed them. Mine is from the early 70s, has one piece rolled sheet metal seat. I removed them and did new pour foam. Then reinstalled. I added some angle aluminum to the seat lips and am working on floor insert panels. So the bench seats will remain and act as the floor. And the inserts will be flush. That way it can be easily removed to clean underneath. Hoping it works well. But i haven't finished yet. I didn't want to go crazy reframing the boat. I personally don't think the seats add much strength. But Google provided pictures are ruined Jon boats because people took the seats out. So I'm leaving it and hoping the inserts work well.
I am using styrofoam board and 3x5’ mats on top of that. The foam is the same thickness as the floor ribs. This make the bottom ribs a non issue. Moving around on the floor easy and drain well. Pretty cheap,light and effective.
Love tiny boat nation!!!!
Thanks for watching!
Build it for war. Love it. I wouldn’t dare go out on chop like that. In my boat
This is why I have my alarm on my fish finder set for considerably more than my actual draft. I go from the lowest part of the boat (bottom of outboard skeg) and set the alarm for 4' more than that. That means I never operate my boat in less than 6' of water. I also don't trust my preloaded maps unless the depth is over 10'. Even then I'm highly skeptical.
Truth
Balls of steal for fishing in that weather not a lot of people would 👍
My lord that looks terrifying... I want one! Lmao
You got this!
Awesome video man I love the way you put that together!!! That boat looks awesome!
Thanks man.
@@TinyBoatNation I still haven’t finished my boat life got in the way but hopefully soon. Man the way your boat handles those waves is a true testament.
Jesus . That thing got put to the test and crushed it ✊
Only way to prove legitimacy
That boat ran good in that water! Nice build.
Yes it did!
grab handle is a good idea
It’s a must-need item
Follow your channel for years 👍
I think you should design a boat from the ground up to specialize for the stuff you want to do with it and the equipment you want to use with it.
What I mean is first pile up all your essentials and then build a boat around it.
You have enough experience with Aluminium to pull that of,,,
it’s actually really hard to design a boat and put it into production with the rigid guidelines from the US CG. We are dealing with it right now.

Awesome video... also, love what yall dud for Logan Anderson fishing!!! I have a sundolphin pro 120 and you guys have been an amazing inspiration for that project!! Just bought a used powerdive for the bow!! Thank you for putting out these vids! Still waiting on that sundolphin pro 120 build from you guys!
That guy is pretty awesome!
Hello John, I live in Georgia, and I been fishing a Sun Pro 120 since 2004, I went through several small motors over the years until I lucked up a used 15 hp Mercury 2 stroke at a pawn shop, man with that motor this little boat flies, best mod I ever made, if you can get one, you'll thank me later!!!!
Shit is scary my buddy just died back at the beginning of the year he drowned at the lake up by Pinetop because the water and wind got dangerous
That sucks. What lake? I thought they were all small.
what a loser
I like this design, and think I'm going to do something similar with my 14' semi v for use on small midwest lakes and rivers. I like the large open cockpit because I plan to bring my dog and will also need to transport duck decoys when hunting. What size outboard do you have? The boat currently has a wood frame deck on the front, and doesn't go near as fast as I want with a 6 hp motor.
Nevermind. Hadn't finished the video when I posted my comment. 20hp seems about perfect to me.
I’m strongly considering buying this boat kit from you guys and wondering if you think it would be safe for the Great Lakes? That’s where I’ll be fishing
It should be fine. You need pretty good instincts and intellect to be competent in navigating the great lakes on any boat. That should be the most important thing.
Dude you have giant brass balls! This video was bad ass
Thank you, Kyle!
Such a bad ass vid.
had something like the intro on my 12', in the middle of the night. Talk about butt pucker.
Life jacket???
Hey man, off topic, but I've been following your builds and working on one of my own. I have a riveted aluminum bass boat im redoing, and i have to replace some missing hull rivets. Im debating using stainless steel panheads instead of rivets. Have you experemented this at all or have any thoughts on that?
You’re not gonna be able to get a proper tightening doing that because the stainless steel hardware it will not mushroom and Biden inside the hull to make it tight
I like it!
Sweet
Nice!
That was entertaining
I tried
How do you like that time lithium battery?
It’s boss! I’d recommend it to anyone.
💯
What is your opinion of the 14ft mirrocraft deep fisherman
I’ve never seen it. I think the hull and higher the walls are the better if you are.
@Tiny Boat Nation working on turning it into a walleye/ lake trout boat. Did an aluminum wood hybrid seal the wood with gallons of water seal and then a thick coat of garage floor epoxy with grit added and still ran into warping and rot issues. Working on a redesign now
truth be known when you got beached on the bank probably wouldn't have been in that position if you'd had a bigger boat
It would’ve been worse. I got beached because I couldn’t see how shallow I was because the water was cloudy.
he wouldn't have been in that position if he'd either been using the electronics OR at least knew how to read waves lmao
