  • Best Inflatable Boat | Stryker Hunter Jet 420 | Living Off Grid - Boat Access Only - My New Garden is Starting! Black Fish Hollow is an 8 Acre property in British Columbia, Canada. The property is BOAT ACCESS ONLY. NicHolistic and I bought a used in-board boat which has a small living quarters on board but it's a powerful gas guzzler! This Inflatable Boat from Styker Boats in British Columbia just barely "sips" gas and uses about 5% of the fuel our larger "Tuk Tuk" boat uses! The Stryker Boat will be our primary mode of transportation as well as our companion for whale watching, scuba diving, free diving, fishing, recreation, and exploration! #garden #gardening #offgrid #permaculture #backyardgarden #boat #boating

    For over nearly 10 years I grew a fruit tree, permaculture, garden, and native edible plant, herb, and raised bed garden food forest. You can still watch all the garden videos of my old desert garden in Arizona. I was born in British Columbia and I have returned to the Rain Forests of British Columbia to a "Raw Land" property to grow my 1st FULL EDIBLE FOOD FOREST Off Grid on a wilderness property. This climate is temperate and coastal, rarely seeing snow in the winter and highs in the 80's (30 Celsius) in the summer. It is a rare microclimate that spans from gardening zone 7-9. The property is 8 acres and completely overgrown, mostly with conifer trees. This area is a verifiable rain forest and situated in the Southwestern-most tip of the Canadian "Great Bear Rain Forest". NicHolistic ( / holisticnicole ) and I will be learning about edible seaweeds, edible native plants, edible mushrooms, and many other edible native trees/plants as we attempt to Build a Yurt, Draw Our Energy Clean, Live Off the Grid, and Grow an Epic Superfoods Garden and Fruit Tree Orchard. We will also have a lot of changes coming so get ready. More videos and BTS Clips at my VLOG channel / adventureswjakenicole

    @FLsheepdog1 Před 5 lety +31

    Excellent video!
    A few hints that may be helpful:
    1. A long shank lock thru the holes on the motor mount screws will not only deter theft but more importantly keep them from loosening from vibration and the pounding of waves to much so the motor doesn't take a swim.
    2. if your going to use the kill lanyard, attach it to you. If you where to say hit a submerged log and get flipped out with it looped around your wrist you may go flying one way and the kill lanyard may go flying in the other direction and the motor wont start without it.
    3. I never untie until the motor is running and warmed up. When you drift out it may not start, and with a little wind it might cause an unnecessary drama.
    4. The fuel line should snap on without using the release. Listen for the click so you know that you have a good connection.
    I have run boats to the size of mega yachts but the most fun is to be had on the smallest ones.

    Jake, when installing the outboard and tightening the screws down you’ll notice holes in both handles of each screw. Point them both inward so they point towards each other. Use a master lock and thread it in the two holes. This keeps the screws from vibrating loose during normal use. Don’t want that beauty to dip in the sea. One last thing, read up on the maintenance for salt water, it can be pretty harsh on outboards vs fresh water. Enjoying the new adventure videos.

    Hey Jake and Nicole. So cool that you guys got a Stryker boat. I have one and love it. I have a tip for you. I would recommend when idling your van try to get the rpms up to 1000-1100. This will prevent wet stacking. When you idle a diesel for long periods it doesn't create enough heat in the cylinder for a complete burn. Nothing good comes from that. When you have the heat on in the van you are taking away even more heat from the engine. In the summer high idle isn't required but in the winter it is recommended. I doubt your van has high idle so you can just cut a piece of wood to wedge between the front of the drivers seat and the gas pedal. This will also bring up the voltage in your alternator to help charge all your electronic devices. Obviously make sure you don't bump the transmission shifter into gear when doing this.

    It’s hard to beat a good inflatable boat. Mine puts me in my happy place. Except for shallow rocky water. That keeps me on edge! So fun, simple, easy to store, tow and launch. We’ve got a 20 hp four stroke, and it just sips fuel. My work has a Stryker down in the Edmonton office. My personal boat I run in Yellowknife is a Mercury Adventure 340. Love zipping along to a secluded spot. Take care out there.

    Great work, they always taught us to Start the engine before undocking , this way if you have engine problems you don’t have to peddle back . It makes more sense on bigger boats but it’s always good to follow good practice . What zone are you in ? Keep up the good work .

    hey jake, one tip for your cutting board. apply some coatings of tung oil on it. it'll make clean up waaay easier, as it makes the surface waterproof, saving time and water.

    Nice work! Just a tip try not to put oil or fuel while on the water! Also I might have missed it but you might want to make sure your outboard motor has a safety cable or chain so if you hit a submerged log ,or boulder you won't lose your motor into the drink! Enjoyed the video! Thanks again Sixshotsteve

    Can't believe you put the motor on the transom while the boat was in the water. I'm glad it worked out. You picked a great outboard.

    hi jake
    i watched your martial art videos a while back and i was very impressed i utilised some of your techniques to increase my striking abilities. good to see you now with your new videos. i liked this boating video and about ur new home. i was just thinking that in certain conditions when you are alone in that stryker you might need an extended accelerator with certain wind you need to be close to the front, better visibility and more speed in choppy water

    Hey! Really enjoy your channel! I am just getting into inflatables, and I’ve seen Stryker before. About how much does your “rig” with the motor run for? New to boating so don’t wanna bite off too much to begin. Appreciate it! You have a great great thing going up there and a wonderful life!
