My Salt Boatworks FRS-15 Build Slideshow
Vložit
- čas přidán 28. 07. 2021
- I was gonna do voice over to explain everything with photos but I don't have time to with a 1 year old. It would also be a long split series of videos. I may do it later but I wanted to show you guys who are watching my channel on what the deal is with the skiff that I have been fishing on, on the last few videos. I don't kayak anymore so this is my main watercraft. I built this specifically to replace my kayaks to get to further distance areas that I never was able to get to. This has made my fishing days a lot more enjoyable.
The slide show will show almost 95% of the build from start to finish. I lost some photos through switching phones. If you like to see written detail of the build, it is on my instagram @Hoang.Nguyen82
Enjoy the slideshow video!
Have been on the water all my life, build and rigged more boats than I can count, must say you did an exceptional, first class job !!!! Wish I could tell you it is time for a larger one so I could buy this one HaHa, but couldn't afford it. Nice nice job. Enjoy it. and Tight Lines to ya.
Thank You! I have thoughts of a larger boat. I've been looking into building a 17 - 18 footer next to take more passengers on the boat. I just don't have the space to build another or I would take on another project already. One of these days though!
Just…absolutely stunning my dude!!
Such a great job, and insanely fun Timelapse to watch!
Thank You Phil! It was one heck of a project!
Great job, very good handwork!!
Watching this video made my day. I’m on my fourth boat, and unfortunately I’m not satisfied with the service and product. Companies seams to don’t give a “f” for costumers.
I’ve been thinking about doing something (not close at yours) as soon as possible.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
Thanks for watching!! Lots of companies are money grabbers with poor customer service nowadays. There are only a few Custom builders who have that type of service but them again, boat prices are outrageous!
Building one takes time and effort, but you save so much money and you can build it the way you want it and in the end, you can say you built a boat out of the garage.
From scratch in the garage
Awesome bro 👍🍺
Amazing build! Truly inspiring and something to be proud of!!💪🏻🤙🏻
Thanky You! It sure is/was a proud project...
Beautiful!👍
A lot of work and a lot of satisfaction!
very useful for those who watch it, greetings healthy and successful always.
Fantastic job!!
Thank You!
OUTSTANDING EFFORT TO A METICULOUS BUILT GOOD O TO YOU
Thank You!!!
This is a Awesome build bro, well done.
Thank You!!!
Wow, incredible work man. Looks like it came out of a high-end boat mfr.
Thank You!
I've been waiting for this! Hoping to get started on mine this winter.
Good luck on your build this winter! It's a very easy and fun build. Join us on Facebook @saltboatworks builders group. We got a bunch of guys sharing their builds with lots of questions being answered.
@@FishingWithHoang thanks for the heads up! I joined! Can't wait to get started. I'm thinking about building the frs 12 first for the local rivers and electric lakes
@@tbreaux_5736 12 or 14 will be a great build. All three sized skiffs build the same way. The 12 is on my list too. I want to see if I can replicate what I did with the 15 but with a shorter build time.
I’m 61, but full of energy look 45 I’ve been told. I wished I wasn’t a computer dink. I am building a little 10’ long catamaran pontoon type little boat just so I can get to a few of my fishing spots down on the Texas coast, hv to cross several ship channels and deeper water and the Bull sharks and hammerheads I don’t feel like messing with. So I designed a cool looking Sponson/pontoon, one on each side with a 3/4” marine plywood flat deck w/a chair on it basically a floating deck with a 74lb riptide trolling motor 24vl. My 21’ center console was stolen along with my 2,500 dollar rear bumper and led lighting abs just about all of my fishing gear electronics was locked up inside boat compartments. Insurance labeled as suspicious because of the cost they don’t realize how much fishing gear costs, especially when it’s top of the line Avet, Shimano, ABU, rids custom ordered hand tied, even with receipts so boat insurance people be aware they will screw ya.
Anyway I know how to record on my iphone, I also hv a go pro, but damn if I know how to edit any of the vids I could make, or how to get a u tube channel and post or upload videos. I researched from ground up on building kayaks skiffs etc along with watching vids. Talking with fiberglass companies had to learn from bottom up, my right side pontoon what I’m calling them I made a lot of mistakes and wasted a lot of glass. My second one won’t take me half tge time along with not taking 4-5 showers daily from fiberglass dust, I beat that like a step child, there is a secret I learned from a Insulation fiberglass man msn so cool. No itch, thanks to total Boat and us composites taught me alot. After this one is done gonna look really cool with the side consoles I hv designed and made outta HD cardboard just needs to glass them and get some floatation foam in them to hold the 2”x 4” I’m mounting inside them for support. Your boat is super cool great work, I’m going to build a scooter boat with a 69 Hp on it next getting brave. But going to hv to find a heated abs Air Conditioned place I can rent or use for 1/2-1 year while building it. People out there hv some super cool ideas, I used every one I could, including designing and building my own shallow water anchors going to hv one on each pontoon 8’ fiberglass poles that will fold down o to desk of boat whine traveling. msnwished I could hv posted that video
Crazy story. Insurance is only good for small claims as we all know now right? Good luck on your builds. Sounds almost like a Craig Cat style build. Perfect for the saltwater flats. Do you not have space in the back yard for a covered awning? Ah you need A/C! I built mine over the winter so I didn't have to deal with the heat. But the cold temp made the epoxy less runny so it was difficult at times to wet out epoxy. The plus side was it allowed me a lot of working time. You ever need help with video editing, I could try and help somehow. It's not that difficult. It's really just cutting and pasting.
nice work..! i like micro skiff
That cover thumbnail is great with the transition of pain and wood!
Thankyou!!!!!
Should have been paint. Not pain
@@andylimb blood sweat tears and Pain to build.. lol
Muito bom trabalho !! Parabéns 👏👏
Gracias amigo!
Awesome job
Thanks!
Looks fantastic! Great attention to detail. Hope you narrate in the future as able, what you would have done differently, etc. Looking to build this winter myself! :) Nicely done.
Thank You! I briefly explain the modifications done on the video I did 7 months ago. It's the 5th video on my list. Check it out. I wish I could do a narrated version but my 2 year old daughter is a handful! Good luck on building yours. It's a fairly easy hull to build.
@@FishingWithHoang I'll be certain to check it out tonight!
Awesome video! Your videos inspired me and my boys to build the same boat. We are over halfway through and can't wait to put it in the water! Thanks again for the great videos :)
Mike, Thankyou! You guys will surely enjoy it. Good luck with completing it. Very easy to build! It's a very well design and rides really smooth!! I'll be posting a new video real soon. This time full walk around since I believe I have completed the boat to my liking.
Amazing plywood the best bos👍👍👍👍
Amazing. Good ideas on a few modifications to the design
Still trying to decide on kit or plans. Marine plywood hard to find in ft worth area
@@floydpros Thankyou! If you can make the drive, there is a lumber yard here north Austin that sells Meranti plywood. Same place I bought my plywood. It'll save you way much more if you buy the plans and cut the plywood yourself.
Nice video.. Thanks to sharing for your knowledge, and greetings from indonesia
Thankyou! Hey I was born in Galang Indonesia!
Nice work
Thank You!
It's fun to build your own boat. I probably would have beefed up the tow point on the bow and the bow stem in general for that size boat (well actually I did on my boat). But then I've seen a skiff with a sturdy bow stem get the entire bow section jerked off before so actually a break away point might not be the worst idea 😅
They're are as beef as I could get them. The bow eye has quite a few layers of glass on the inside of the hull. The outside has 2 layers of 1208 glass along the keel. The stern eyes have backing plates on the inside of the hull. I think the area that takes the most beating is the Power Pole mount which has backing plate inside of the hull too. Everything is glassed. Going on 3+ years and I sure hope nothing gets ripped apart!
Boat looks great, I have a good idea how much sanding and mixing epoxy goes into that build , I’m trying to convince myself it’s worth it.
Thankyou... Sanding wasn't that bad actually. All the prep work done during glassing helps lessen fairing. I didn't spend that much time fairing and sanding the hull and it still came out great. Especially for a home built boat. Majority of the sanding was done with a orbital sander. Hard to reach or small radius areas were blocked. It was worth the time and effort spending less than $2k on the hull from plywood to paint. But that was before the pandemic. Good luck on your decision!
WOWZA!
Great job sir, this build looks awesome.. Does it come with instructions I've never glassed before whatsoever how do you know what kind of glass to use and how to lay it, what direction, how much do you overlap the layers? I'd hate to build it and sink on the maiden voyage lol...
Thankyou! The plans only come with full sized templates for all parts of the hull. Transfer those to plywood and cut them out. After stitching and epoxying the joints, you glass all joints with either glass you cut out or you can use glass tape. The plans also comes with all building materials listed. Some can be modified. As you glass the joints, you'll learn how to work with the glass. Majority of the glass joints are inside and under the floor so you'll never see them when the boat is completed. Glassing the outside of the hull is fairly simple. I had zero experience when I built the boat. Overlap can be as much as you want but also limited to the width of the glass fabric. Join Saltboatworks Builders Group on facebook. All questions are answered by current builders. The group is pretty active daily. Saltboatworks youtube channel shows basic glassing too so you might wanna check that out also..
Hello sir, i am from indonesia. It is a good job.
Nice boat i like you boat
Beautiful rig. Awesome workmanship.
How much water does the completed boat draft?
How heavy is the hull after being glassed?
Thank You! The boat drafts around 6.5" inches fully loaded with 2 people. A little less with one person and light load. I built mine a bit on the heavier side. The estimated hull weight from the plans is 450# pounds. I never weighed my boat but I'm suspecting it's somewhat around 490-ish pounds with all the modifications I did to the hull.
Hi friend. Amazing work. Do you have plans to build this boat? Regards
Thank You! I bought the plans at Saltboatworks.com
@@FishingWithHoang Tank you. I subscribed to your channel. Regards of Argentina.
Amazing! Congratulations 🎉
If I may ask how “wobbly” is it?
Thank you! It's pretty stable for one person. Having 2 people on board will need a bit of communication when walking around the deck. But everyone has their own sea legs so as stable as it is for me, it may or may not be for others. Out of the other few FRS15 skiffs built, no one has complained about stability.
Is that engineered floor underlayment?
Again, great build and awesome video. One other question for you though. I also live in Texas and was wondering what plywood did you use and where did you source it? Thanks!
Thank you! I got my Meranti plywood from Fine Lumbar in ATX. Prices are very reasonable!
Absolutely love the build.. where can I get the plan and measurements
Thank you! The plans were bought from Saltboatworks
At 3:04 what’s that aluminum block with a what looks to be a shaft with a block machined on it? Never seen that thing before, it’s not a shaft I don’t think I saw outboard on it
Looks great! Any idea how many beers this ended up taking?
Thank you! Atleast a couple of 12 packs!!!
does the build come with a motor?
What did you use for the top flooring? The white grip Padding
It's seadek. I bought two rolls during black friday sale. Its actually Caribean Blue. It matched the color of the hull.
Starting on this build now. im still in the air weather to use a jack plate or just go with conventional transom well. Any thoughts from you on this option? TIA.... frank
Have a great time building!
Every single build is different. I guess it depends on how you will be using the boat. A few weeks ago, I tested out lowering the outboard at the very bottom of the jackplate, then gradually raised it while running. The more I raised it up, the more performance I gained. We're not talking huge numbers, but if I can remember, the prop loosened up around 22-23mph and jumped up to 25-26mph instantly. Any higher, the prop blows out. You can hear air mixing into the prop. It also loosened up the sensitivity of the steering so it took less effort to steer the tiller. I use the jackplate a lot when I get into the shallow flats. We're talking a foot or so of water or less.
Had a kid who built his and said his felt a bit sluggish with a Yamaha 25. We talked about jackplates. He added a non adjustable jackplate. He was getting 23mph. After the jackplate install he got up to 27mph.
I'd say, go for it! If I had to do it all over again, I should have gone with a Bob's Machineshop jackplate. It was around $1100 at the time which steered me away. The Atlas micro jacker was around $700. I keep hearing bad things about the Atlas jackplate, but knock on wood, mine has been running flawlessly.
One last thing to thing about which is not on this video is Trim Tabs. (There's a walkthrough video of my boat updated currently. Check out that video for more details on my build if you'd like to.) If you had to choose either trim tabs or jackplate, I would go with Trim Tabs. Since these boats are weight sensitive, the trim tabs help tremendously to keep the bow down depending on load and keeps the nose up in choppy water without porpoising. My boat porpoises like crazy if I don't use the trim tabs half down at 18mph+.
But of course, having boat is a great luxury to have. You can really trim out the boat depending on weather, current, load, etc on the fly.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
Scarf joints and a splice?
Nice build. How tall is the grab bar?
Thankyou... It's 36" tall.
Where did you get the plans? Great job
Thanks! Saltboatworks website is where I got it from.
Thinking about adding the Keel Guard strip. How many feet did you use on your build?
Hey Frank! I think I used 4 feet of it.
Where did you get the wood for the sheer bumpers and the deck supports?
I bought 1 " x 2" Cedar strips from Homedepot.
Great job~~~!!!
How was weight of boat?
Thank You! Its around 227kg or 500 pounds.. I built it a bit heavier than the plans.
👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
I researched Kurt tools and it’s a vise but what’s the part in it? Used for what in boat building process
I copied and pasted all of my photos in the video editing software. Some of my actual everyday job photos snuck into the slideshow. There's one you see with grab bar in the vises where I was cutting a hole for running wires under the floor. The other was for a outboard motor strap. I need to go in and edit the video on youtube.
Do you think building this boat with a small center console would be possible?
There is a few that exists and are being built as center console. There is also one with side console. You can build it however you like
İ want doing this
Man this is such a nice boat how's it holding up? Love the channel to keep the content coming
Thankyou! And thankyou again!! I took the boat out for a run yesterday. My wife and my baby daughter tagged along. With the new 30HP Suzuki that we are breaking in still, got us up to 27mph into the wind. Used to be around 18-20mph with the 20HP suzuki. The boat road really smooth as always. I made some changes recently. Once I get everything all buttoned up, I am going to do another walk through video..
Boat size
Very nice 👌 👍
Thank You!
Có thể xin bảng thiết kế được không? Cảm ơn
Where did you buy your plywood at? And did you go with what they recommended?
iE Meranti/okoume?
I bought my Meranti plywood at a lumbar yard in Austin TX. I called around all of the lumbar yards in the Texas hill country area and was willing to drive rather than paying for plywood to be shipped. You can use either type plywood you want. Meranti is heavier but stiffer and stronger. Okume is lighter, cost a whole lot more and i easier to bend. I think the weight difference was around 30%.
@@FishingWithHoang thanks man I really appreciate it!
Beautiful rig! But I gotta ask was the 600+ hours worth it over buying one ?
Thank You! 600+ hours was hours of building a boat for the first time. I bet 2nd time around I could cut that in half. I spent around $10k on the whole rig. Trailer and everything. Minus the electronics. That was 2019 prices though. A commercial built 15 foot skiff is around $28k. Yes it was worth all the hours spent on building one and also its a perk of having a home built boat built to your own specs.
Wrong. Buy easy disevit
@@sharonbraselton3135 You're right... Disevit is everywhere
What did you do for a fuel tank?
6 gallon under the bow hatch. Watch my walkthrough video whdre I explain a bit of the setup.
Can I get the boat plan and measurement please
Yeah.. go to saltboatworks.com
Nice! 8k + 600 hrs at 50.00 an hour is 38k dollar boat. Now I see why boats cost so much.
Most of the hours was brain storming. Trying to put A and B together. Other times was waiting on epoxy to cure and paint to dry.
What was your total costs after everything?
All builds are different. Could be a range of around $5k to $10k or more. I don't know what my total build cost was but guessing around $8k
How much did it cost you from start to finish?
Under $2k for the hull. This was 2019 prices.
Sir where i can get the copy of the template
Go to SaltBoatWorks website...
Amazing skift, can you share this skift design for me..
Thanks... I bought the design from www.saltboatworks.com
Какая килеватость на миделе и на транце?
Sorry I do not know the deadrise angle. I am " guessing " it is around 7° degrees.
ฉันอยากใด้ความรู้ในการสร้าง มันสวยงามมาก
Hey how long did it take to get your plans in the mail? I’m having issues getting ahold of anyone.
I thought I had replied to you! I got mine within a few days. That was before Saltboatworks was popular. The only way anyone is able to get a hold of him is by email. You could also try messaging him on instagram or facebook. You aren't the only person with a bit of delay. Let me know if you have not gotten in contact with him. I will try and help out.
@@FishingWithHoang thanks and I did end up getting it today. And they where awesome. How did you go about getting the boat registered?
@@richardmauch1042 Check with your local game warden office or boating registration office. They have all the info. The only thing I did on my part was to save all of the receipts that I got from making every single purchase for the build. I had a good turn out during inspection because they didn't even inspect my boat. The Game Warden was really cool. He slapped on 2 HIN stickers, I paid and gave them all of the receipts that they requested.
Hello friend Congratulations for the video I'm Brazilian and subscribed to your channel would you have the mold of these plants for me
Hi! Thanks for watching! Plans are at www.Saltboatworks.com
Bisakah memberikan ukuran yg tepat semuanya pak?👍👍
Y not put the pics in order lol
They are in order by date and time.
This is one of those " don't try this at home " moments
Tried and true!!

Hello from Mansfield just south of you. How hard was the process of getting your HID on this to get it titled? Did you have to show all these pictures to the game warden or how does that work? looking to start my 20' LYS this summer. excellent video looks great.
After the game warden had already passed my inspection and stuck the HIN sticker onto my boat, they ask for reciepts of everything I purchased to build the boat. I also submitted copies of the plans. The guy didnt ask me for my build photos. I was in and out of there pretty quick. I would call them and ask them to be sure though. I doubt anything has changed but you never know!
