12 gallons of fuel on one side of the boat is a very bad idea. The weight needs to be centered. Maybe throw another 12 gallon on the opposite side brother.
Just ran across your channel, I really enjoy seeing bright young people who know how to put a project together and follow it through and get the results they looking four,,, excellent work, continue having fun enjoying your work and the God bless❤
You might consider teaching your sister to weld. You could mount the part tack it in and she could finish it out while you move on to another place. She does a great job filming, I'll bet with some practice she could be a valuable asset!!
Make *SURE* you ground that gas tank to the hull, and install a blower. The foam isolators are good but create a high risk of static arcing without a good ground strap. Don't forget a blower system. Looks like fun already! Also the washers on the thru hull connections need to be 316 stainless.
I just turned my 16 foot jon boat into a tournament bass fishing boat. Been having a blast on it! It's a cheap build and I already got people asking me to build them one, I can turn enough profit to build even more and/or nicer ones quickly. Cheers!
You may want to think about adding 2 steering cables, 2 pulling, 2 pushing. Your just totally reliant on the steering to work especially at speed as you've not got a rudder. If 1 cable breaks, locks up or comes loose your kinda boned where as if you have one cable on each side of the jet direction nozzle then your covered in the case of failure. . Either way, Great work as usual.
You might think about putting some flotation in the front , sides and maybe even in the engine if you can. Also make sure you put a bulge pump that can pump fast.. You definitely want a windshield as a jut boat can almost submarine if you jump waves or spin it fast. You will also want a kill switch on a bracelet and a dry cell battery as you will be bouncing hard on this thing.
Didn't catch you mentioning putting in a blower to vent your engine compartment. Since you're planning to close the engine compartment, it's highly recommended to install a blower too to vent any gasoline fumes. Jetskis don't make a use of blowers, but still recommending pulling the seat to vent the bilge before starting the engine.
Just a heads up to any one thinking of building any thing aluminum,always weld in a much larger reinforcement plate before welding in the motor mount bracketry and mounts...
This is cool. Gives me some ideas for the literal wall of rotax 583-670 engines i have from my years building/swapping honda oddyseys and pilots. What else can i do with all these sled engines in an area where it doesn't snow. Im on the chesapeake bay in Southern Maryland so a little boat sounds fun.
I want to see the smallest full suspension go-kart that is all aluminum and super light. They sell these cheap 125cc 3 speed with reverse and electric start for around $300 on Amazon. Make it hopefully small enough to fit in the back of a pickup. If it is light enough that engine should make it a fun ride. I am not talking a rock bouncer, but something that can do well on and off road. Just rear wheel drive too. Something reliable and fun that you would let others drive.
Total respect how much quality work you get done in the summer heat. What we years ago in south GA used to call 90-90s. Over 90 degrees and over 90%. I'd lose focus welding in that LOL.
Love this man me and my cousin build stuff in his shed in the yard love how you never forgot where you came from even if you get as big as vgg and have a whole shop your still relatable because it makes it even better to see you go from the bottom to the top keep grinding brotha love the content
You should actually use Vinegar instead of Bleach on mould. Bleach can actually help BlackMould spread. Also, I started working for Line-X coatings in 1999 for one of the first locations in Canada. At the time, head office in Red Deer tested out the bed liner coating on the hull of a speed boat. The coating ended up reducing the boats 1/4 mile time because of the texture. The texturing helped reduce drag because of the water bubbles that would be created. One would think that you would want a smooth boat bottom, but apparently your better off coating the boat bottom.
Dude I have always loved all your projects and ideas. We pretty much love all the same stuff. Taking anything and everything small and sorta slow and simply put as much power and engine that'll fit. And bingo, quick summary of what makes me smile. But on a serious note sometimes I'll get ahead of myself and focus on the wrong thing in a build. Usually because I move to fast and have minimal patience with builds. This cost alot of time energy and worst of all MONEY. I don't have alot of this. But though I have yet to build a screamer of a boat, my mind goes straight to, the drive and engine will be most crucial. These components have got to be perfect. Plumb and level. Good and mounted solid. And perfectly aligned. So keep on keeping on. And I'll keep watching
I feel like you should have a little support bar running across the top of that unit sticking out the back.. Because it sticks so far out there than If you hit a rock or stump the wrong way: I has a lot of leverage that can damage it, especially when you're jumping waves. Just a little half inch bar across the top that sits right up against it, just to give it some support so that it won't flex upward when you hit something. You can make it bolt on so that it's easy to take off... I know the rail on each side will block most things-- but it needs more support IMO.. to me: just looking at it
Just make sure you have a fire extinguisher in your boat if you are going to keep the engine compartment sealed. There will be gas fumes and hot engine = fire for sure.
I wish I was naerby.. I'd come help you troubleshoot... I took electronics class in high school and have rebuilt countless bikes and quads (and cars, actually). and I have a Rotax buggy myself.. I turned a CBR600 into a quad. I still have cr500's and 450R and a banshee, etc. etc......... What I'll tell you is: get a volt/ohm meter and start testing the basics. It could be something as simple as your on/off safety switch just isn't working and you might have to pull it apart and clean the contacts (or just get a new one). You can either pierce the wires and test for voltage.. or trace those wires all the way back to the computer module and test poke at the little connector pins on the back of the connector, where the wires go in (which is called "back probing"). Once you learn how to start test and eliminating things that aren't the problem, then you'll zero in on it.... Sometimes it's just a bad ground.. You were able to spin it over, but the computer needs ground wires hooked up too... and they may have bad connections. The stator should only be there to charge up the battery, (like an alternator), since you have a battery in this system. But there will probably be another little pick up coil there somewhere, which is what tells the coils when to fire. You need to get a schematic so that you can check the powers and grounds at the computers, there are usually more than one for each of them.. On a bike, you have to deal with neutral safety switches and clutch switches and kick stand switches, etc.. or it won't start.. I'm not sure about what safety's this Rotax had, other than the lanyard switch.. It's possible that it could just be a bad coil.. but I wouldn't go throwing parts at it.. You need to sit down and watch some videos and learn how to troubleshoot the coil and the switches and powers and grounds, etc. etc.. and start eliminating possible problems... Getting a wiring diagram is crucial.. You might have to buy a service manual if you can't find it online easily. I have the service manual for all my bikes.. It just makes life easier. It's hard to test all those wires if you don't know what each is supposed to be doing. You MUST find a wiring diagram.. Just think about it in sections and you'll narrow it down much quicker than you think. ord3r a clamp style multimeter that can check for AC and DC current BOTH. (make sure it can do both, because most cheap ones can only do AC current through the clamp). There are several on szkcamaznon under thr^ty bucks.
Im sorry you ran into the chinese stater/different CDI dilemma. I hope someone who is knowledgeable in this can reach out soon and help you out! Best wishes. Keep at it 💪 👏 🙌 👌
This is not a mini jet boat grind hard plumbing co has a mini jet boat this is a 2 seater if you want a minie jet boat build one that only fits one person this is outrageous you call it a mini 😂😂😂😂

How much did you burn your arms welding that in a t-shirt?
12 gallons of fuel on one side of the boat is a very bad idea. The weight needs to be centered. Maybe throw another 12 gallon on the opposite side brother.
Those look like HD front motor mounts

You might consider teaching your sister to weld. You could mount the part tack it in and she could finish it out while you move on to another place. She does a great job filming, I'll bet with some practice she could be a valuable asset!!
always love how she is helping him and implicated in his projects :)
I love how you just go at it and cut and weld shit up and make stuff the way you want
Make *SURE* you ground that gas tank to the hull, and install a blower.
The foam isolators are good but create a high risk of static arcing without a good ground strap.
Don't forget a blower system.
Looks like fun already!
Also the washers on the thru hull connections need to be 316 stainless.

I’m 3/4 of the way there with my 14’ but my trolling motor is too big lol. Al might welding ftw

Agreed
It’s a jetski motor it’s cooled by water don’t need any blower
It's required by law on boats
@@nickk5368it’s to remove any build op of gases from the engine compartment so it doesn’t go boom. It’s absolutely necessary on a boat. 28:17
Every boat has a name. You should name this the "Spicy Zila" in honor of a great welder!
That welder sounds pretty cool ngl
Thought it was a saxophone at first 😂
This thing is gonna be dope!
The sound of aluminum mig brings back some memories.
Just a heads up to any one thinking of building any thing aluminum,always weld in a much larger reinforcement plate before welding in the motor mount bracketry and mounts...
DIY back yard grunt builds are the most American thing I can think of happy 4th keep it up, your builds are inspiring!

Nice job on sandblasting the aluminum 😂
Now wait for the trolls to come out ….😂😂😂😂

Great to know! I used a special vinyl cleaner
Try replacing the ignition coil or rectifier .. looking good so far tho
Turning out great Vasily!! Can’t wait to see you rippin it
You'll figure it out man.. awesome job so far.. keep it up brother
Straight vibin with the music, you're the man Vas! Greetings from the Triad, NC!

Another awesome episode, Vasily. Can't wait to see the next update on this tub!!! And, awesome music throughout the show. 'Preciate ya !!!
Those tubes round the back will be an asset for you. Its way easer to cut and build new rails than straightening the hull.
You're going to want trim tabs, especially because of how short that boat is. You might even make them adjustable but that's up to you.
There was water coming out of your starter switch harness thing
Hey .. enjoy your content,you should mount tank low across the back of the boaty
Just make sure you have a fire extinguisher in your boat if you are going to keep the engine compartment sealed. There will be gas fumes and hot engine = fire for sure.
The song playing around the 4:30 mark sounds 🔥 at x1.75 speed!
Are you going to add trim tabs to help with getting up on plane?
Keep the video coming been wanting to see you finish the jet boat for a while good work.
Your kicking ass my boy
Hell yeah brother, remember, if it's preloaded it won't rattle
i bought me a tshirt and got me a surfshark subscription keep up the dope content!!
Obrigado por compartilhar conosco
nice video
You could put the seats in the panel for the engine cover instead of on top incorporate them into the cover?? Just an idea
Usually the dash should be connected to the wiring loom so the computer and or cdi can see everything. Usually the cdi is the culprit
love the vid keep it up
That’s really cool, boat looks sweet.
Ignition switch? Most jetskis have a key right?
You can heat the warped sheet and then rub a wet rag on ot to un warp it s called quenching

nice video and build like always keep up the good work
Nice job man!
Maybe go standalone ECU
The cost of a brand new jetski

Boat stands for bust out another thousand!
They are fun but expensive
Not so bad if you can work on it yourself.otherwise $$$$$$
Put a bilge pump in it
great stuff thanks
Feier ich ohne Ende, in Deutschland kann man solche Dinge einfach nicht umsetzen, mach weiter so ❤
go do cboys speed dating
The paint on the valve cover isn't going to promote a good ground when testing spark,
cant you convert it to a simpler electrical system?
No way you jut raptor lined a boat???? Dude that’s going to literally cut your speed in half. Name of the game with boats is SMOOTH
Even not doing the bottom that little bit below the water line is going to kill you with drag
Great build, but should use pre mix and not that oil tanker.
Coating the topside with a dark color might not be the best idea
A black boat, now that might be a little hot in the sun?
Is that plug on a bolt or are you
expecting the red paint to ground it?
Welding to close might have fried the c.p.s or the ecu
I touched it to bare metal many times
@@VasilyBuildsOk, just making sure 😉
Did you turn the key to the on position
Kawasaki made a JB650 jet boat just like that
Polaris made the engines with chips in the keys so if your don't have the programed key you might be outta luck...look into not 100% certain
so your next build is a cybertruck replica?
How much weight do you have in the back? It looks like you’re going to be staring at the sky when you give it any type of throttle.
I can make wedges for the pump and angle it up or down
4:17 is that a 🐭
Comment love frm CHI
Im sorry you ran into the chinese stater/different CDI dilemma. I hope someone who is knowledgeable in this can reach out soon and help you out! Best wishes. Keep at it 💪 👏 🙌 👌
Boat name? 🎉
Soooo it’s not finished?
Why just one engine?
You need a motor from the mid 90’s no computer bullshit.
It doesn’t have any rocker
🛥
Just do away with all over that wiring and start from scratch
This is not a mini jet boat grind hard plumbing co has a mini jet boat this is a 2 seater if you want a minie jet boat build one that only fits one person this is outrageous you call it a mini 😂😂😂😂
I'm done watching your videos you take forever finishing anything if at all.
Aka grind hard plumbing co wannabe not even close
