A man doing actual things with his kids, right on, that's how it should be. Homemade everything, great, thank you.
I love the comment and thanks so much for watching!
You seem like such a cool dad chud, love how much time you spend with your kids and all the fun activities you have with one another. Awesome family Chud.
Yes, I really wish I could do this youtube thing full time forever, but it is not paying the bills. I am trying to do activities with the kids before that next job comes along and sponges up much of my free time... thanks for the awesome comment and for watching.
That's an awesome fishing platform, so much room. Nice!!
It sure is! I just need to get out and do more fishing off of is soon. thanks for watching.
Looks like everyone had a good time, that's what it's all about. Good memories 👍
That is exactly what it is about and thanks so much for watching!
The Pontoon boat is pretty cool with all the extras you built onto it the only thing missing is a small cabin to get out of bad weather and maybe keep things dry in rainy days
Funny you should say that, I am working on the cabin right now for some summer camping. Want to stay safe from the gators. Thanks for watching.
Great boat, sir. It reminds me of what I tried to do 47 years ago, when I was 13.
That is so cool, glad to bring back some memories for you. thanks for watching and hope to build #3 soon.
Man, you must be a blast of a buddy. Putting green, awesome.
IDK, I sure try to be!
I'm so happy to see you're poonton boat it working
Thanks so much and thanks for watching!
Bananas on the boat is bad luck. Love the boat!
I have heard that and thanks for watching
Very cool! Nice, simple life. Having family fun while. 👍
Absolutely and thanks so much for watching!
Really, it is safe. There are no one golf area sunk never in the human history !
Thanks for watching
The putting green is a Nice Touch!
Thanks that is fun. Thanks for watching
That boat is AWESOME! I'd be afraid I'd clamp onto the roof of a car... I'd have to follow my line down to fetch my magnet... and you know, take a looksie inside...
Yes would be cool to find something big, but at a 1200 pound rated magnet is going to be impossible for me to get off. I usually leave a boot or something on the magnet so it does not get fully stuck. I hope no body is in that car and thanks for watching!
Pretty nice boat 👌 I like the green on top where you can play golf! Who else can do that at on the river? No one 😃🐟🦈🎣
Great point an thanks for watching!!
congrats on your Transom design. Other diy pontoons I've seen failed that test...
Thanks so much, tried to build strong. Thanks for watching.
Turkey livers, or gizzards.. a heavy hook and wire lead with a catfish pole, and some old net stockings. Catfish fishing.
Sounds like you know what you are doing, thanks for watching.
This boat is amazing. I’m hopeful to someday borrow your idea and make my own.
Borrow all you like and thanks for watching!
Daisy is magnet fishing while the boy is off exploring in his bare feet. Daisy is hanging out while the boy is playing hideNseek. Daisy is my favorite child while the boy just thinks he's part of the family. The boy needs some love to!
Take the boy fishing and he feels like part of the family, now I get in trouble for letting him be a boy and letting him explore. Thanks for watching
Leftover livers are best left in your car a couple of days bc you came home and forgot about them. OMG the smell. Hatchback up. Windows down for days!
The golf deck was a great touch
Thanks so much, had much fun playing putt putt, thanks for watching!
you've managed to create an interesting fishing spot and can camp there too, there are apples🍎
Would be fun to camp on and thanks for watching!
Cool idea but u should consider ear plugs with those 2 loud lawn mower engines running at the same time. Especially for those kids.
good idea. My current build has the full muffler still installed... Thank for watching.
I approve this message
Thanks for approving, thanks for watching!!
Oh yea forgot to mention, you can look up homemade bait recipes, When my Grandson he's 7 , comes for the weekend dang near first thing outta his mouth is Hey Pop's can we mix up some bluegill bait tonite, Man I love that kid he's awesome, I've taught him how to make various traps , we hunt in the winter , he cleans dress's out his own fish an Squirrel, Rabbit , An he's pretty darn good shot with his Savage 64 . 22lr , he was jumping up down with joy when he got his gator, it was about 6 footer , of course Ma an Gma wasn't real thrilled 😁
Nice day out boating is a very good day.
It was very nice and thanks for watching
Luv your ingenuity,,,beautiful,,
Thanks so much and thanks for watching
Just a suggestion put a small crane with a winch for the boat to make it easier to get heavy stuff up
I have thought about doing that... thanks for watching.
Yes! That's great! Lol!
I Really Do Like # 2 Boat But They Are All Great
Thanks so much and thanks for watching. Hopefully can build #3 soon...
Great vids, thank you. The unvarnished / unsealed wood is concerning, it could last ten years more if sealed well :)
Good point and thank you for watching
🤣🤣 Chicken lizard..LOL
Once we went fishing, and my friend got the last tub of chicken gizzards and was laughing his butt off about it. So I improvised and bought smoky bacon instead. At the lake, I was catching fish left and right and he didn't even get a nibble. I guess fish are like people and get tired of eating the same thing all of the time. I also tied a bacon slice to some line and threw it out there and drug back, slowly, an entire bucket of giant crayfish. My friend bitched all the way home, that I cheated and used unofficial bait :-):-)
It might get expensive (the price of bacon these days), but I may just have to try that. Thanks for the tip and for watching.
Nice boat, nice family. I would put a grill on her so you could have some cookouts. Also a good cooler.
Grill and cooler would be nice and thanks for watching.
Just making due along bank area where there's a lot of Roots and down wood try top water or old school jigger pole fishing a lost art a form of Cain pole fishing with a top water lure instead of a hook and bobber. You use the tip of the Cain to tap the water pluse move the lure it makes large mouth bass mad
That's deff a good magnit wow. Have a great week. God bless
Yes it is and thanks for watching
We Live In The Most Beautiful State !
No I live in the most beautiful state lol!
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls
Thanks so much and thanks for watching
We use cut Perch or shad to catch catfish here in North Carolina . Although we have used chicken livers with very limited success...
Thanks for the tip, I will be trying something different next time... thanks for watching.
@@chud327 If you had a cast net you can catch your own bait it's fresh bait and using what is naturally in that certain body of water seems to work best.
You should put a hatch in the deck so you can get in and out of the kayak from the middle of he boat.
Yes, that would be a cool idea and thanks for watching.
Again just in case you look at this one and not just the other one I posted on, your two outboards you had previously needed new pumps in them. Easy to replace. That would probably solve your overheating issue.
Probably so and thanks for watching
Probably only time youll see an Altima pull up with a decent sized pontoon boat in tow! And why is that cheese so insane???
So true and thanks for watching!!
I wonder if chud327 will ever make a lawn mower outboard with console steer
I am planning to put the controls in the front of my current boat. Been collecting materials and hope to get to it soon. Thanks for watching!!
@@chud327 oh yea sweet
That cheese is insane! Hahahaha
Funny and thanks for watching.
These are such fun videos! I guess my only complaint is that it's a little too first person, I want to see an outside view of the pontoon moving through the water. Might be fun to start playing with a drone?
I will try to show more of the boat and it moving through the water next time for you and thanks so much for watching.
Considering all the weight that's (usually) on the back of these builds, If I we're to build one iI think i would balance the boat directly between the 4 barrels during the build process and possible add an extra foot or 2 length to the front of the boat maybe even a curved section like a half stop sign shape for ascetical reasons. though... that looks pretty dam good with that astro terf I must say. =D
Yeah, this one needed anthe barrel in the back center when I put the heavier motors on.... Thanks for watching!!
@@chud327 Would a center barrel be your best option, you'd be dealing with more drag, and even FAR more drag if you didn't create a slated attachment for that center barrel.
Thanks for posting!!
I just wish I had the drive to post my sailboat build, you did a great job building this, definitely gave me ideas should I ever embark on such a project.
Perhaps 2 additional barrels at the end of each pontoon or, OR... recessing the motors inward, in any case having the barrels extend beyond the motors may be a idea for the Ver. 2.0. Perhaps build an open-able casing over the engines disguised as a cushioned bench would hide the engines.
Dam! I'm full of semi-decent ideas today! =D
Take chicken livers. Wrap them in bacon with a water chestnut soak in Worcester sauce and broil them till done Thank me later. . Super yummy horses doovers.
Funny and may have to try your recipe... Thanks for watching .
I love fried chicken lizzards!
Too bad the catfish did not feel the same and thanks for watching.
love your vid... that poor car tho lol
IKR, still using is an it has not complained yet. I do try to baby it other than the trailer. Thanks for watching
Use medium minnows for day time catfish
Good tip and thanks for watching
Great recycled DIY boat. But please if your going to magnet fish, take the items to the trash or to a recycle place. Thanks
Good to see a fellow cleaner upper out here cleaning up America's trash with us. ❤️❤️ ❤️
My idea I had for a live Well if you put a barrel underneath at an angle with the bung hole to the rear and on the bottom put the other end of the barrel up high cut access hole in barrel and floor of boat when you're sitting there in the water live well will feel when you're moving at high speed it will empty put some type of a gate valve on it to hold water in or out if you need more buoyancy keep valve closed It is an idea
I love the idea, but I don't know if I want to cut holes in the putting green. I might could do it in the back, mine needs more bouyancy in the back anyways. I will try decide before June when the spring trip is planned for. I plan to do a bunch of fishing on that trip. thanks for watching.
@@chud327 The cool thing is if you have a valve to keep the water out you will have extra buoyancy And if you want to live well just open the valve and the water will float into the barrel
Sweet video
Thanks so much and thanks for watching
Not a bad day on the water even if you didn't catch anything
That is exactly how I feel every time I go out. Thanks for watching.
I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!! and thanks for watching.
That is awesome I like I just hope DNR don't try to make you get up from it or it
It was fully legal and thanks for watching.
It is supposed to be gizzards because they are tough and say on some times a few fishes
That is a good tip, I plan to try again and will hunt gizzards better next time. thanks for watching.
Your boat is better than a regular boat by far take all the olight and go croc hunting maybe next time?
I totally agree! I have a camping trip with it planned for June. I plan to take all the Olights and probably put my LED pods on all four corners of the boat to see the gator better... thanks for watching.
Chicken lizards!!! Ahahaha best part of the video next to the air cooled boat motors!! Shoutout from Canada
Funny and did you see my most recent air cooled boat motor video from about a week ago? Thanks so much for watching.
Use chicken gizzards and hearts. They hold the hook much better. I wish you lived here, I have the perfect place to take that boat👍🏼
Gizzards and hearts next time for sure. I wish I could teleport up there with my boat, I would love a shot at the ones you have been dragging in... thanks for watching.
Get more fish with pop cron shrimp. And it don't stink.
I like it and thanks for watching
cooooool
That cheese is insane.
it was insane...
When metal detecting we have kind of a unwritten code of conduct, you don't leave trash behind. We try to leave everything better than we found it, including any holes we make. You cut a sod plug over the target and remove it. Place a piece of plastic or a grocery bag on the ground to put any dirt on from a hole. When done the hole is reassembled with pride and effort it will make it virtually undetectable. Any trash we find, we keep it and dispose of it properly. I would think this is especially important in a water habitat. I imagine that by removing any disturbed metal, you reduce the chance of heavy metal poisoning to the aquatic life.
Some of the metal we picked up that day was removed. However, I don't know that steel is poisonous and It is really difficult to haul rusty rebar that is 20 feet long. I do appreciate how you take care with you metal detecting and every other magnet video of mine ends up at a trash can. Thanks for watching.
Ini sangat bagus... 🇲🇨👍
Thanks for watching
Thanks for the video
Way too loud. But the rest of it is pretty nice. The build was amazing and the restoring of the red wench was the best part.
Thanks so much, I will try to restore more stuff for you soon. thanks for watching.
Good afternoon. How can I put together the blue trash cans? Can you make a video? Thanks
I am not sure, but thanks for watching
You gotta buy the chicken liver the day before and leave it out in the sun to get rancid.
Funny, I will have to try that next time and thanks for watching.
Nothing wrong with banana's on a boat lol was only a problem in the old days of long sea voyage's ,due to banana's giving off a gas that makes fruit ripen quicker ,:)
That makes a lot of sense and thanks so much for watching.
@@chud327 not a problem , liked watching you build the boat , enjoyed the commentary on why you did things , I thought the boat was for a lake at the start , she's good and strong :) good job my man ,
@@rickybell6356 just seeing your reply, thanks, hope to build #3 soon
The chewy chips ahoy aren’t good with milk. The milk just sheds
That is good to know and thanks for watching
I know where that boat ramp is my papas friend owned it then he passed away lasted year it's on the saint Mary's river in Hilliard on lake Hampton road
That is exactly where it is and sorry about the friend's papa passing away. Thanks for watching.
@@chud327 thank you and I always will
i wonder who was stabbed with those knives before ditching them in the river
You never know and thanks for watching. BTW, plan to go magnet fishing again in the morning, video coming soon.
Fencing must be prepared on the corner of the deck.
Why toss the metal waste back? why not take it out and recycle it or properly dispose?
Probably because he didn't bring the truck
cool stuff....id love to make stuff like this i have all the time in the world but i dont have teh space or place to build it......im goign away at months end the guy im visiting could probably use such stuff...i dont have property of my own close for stuff like this i always have to go a bit of ways and i also dont have land to build it on sadly:( so i have all the time just missing everything else.
Hand golf lol HAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂
Will the game warden give you any trouble on tagging this in Oklahoma to make you have a tag on your boat
I don't know about other states, Florida wants anything with an engine or even a trolling motor to be registered. Thanks for watching!!
Hello, Sorry, let me ask you something, how many liters should the barrels you use be in size... And how many meters should be the length and width of the Catamaran we are going to build.? i would be glad if you could help, thank you
See other comment and I hope that helps. Good luck with your build. Thanks again for watching!!
@@chud327 Thank you very much😊🙏👍✔️
Не плохой аппарат
Недостает столика и скамеечки для компашки.
That would be cool, maybe on the next build. Thanks for watching!!
I think she maybe hurricane proof
I hope so and thanks for watching.
Are you looking for guns, using the magnet?
guns, knives, bombs... what ever is cool really. Thanks for watching.
Snorkel one of the mowers
Just wondering, could you install an air valve on the barrels (air up) to prevent them from collapsing?
Some people do that, I would rather not have to deal with 8 valves. thanks for watching.
How many pound pull is that magnet you are using? I see they have a 3600# one.
It is a 1200#, too strong for me .. thanks for watching
Thanks for the video enjoyed watching it got to give you a thumbs down for throwing the rebar back in the river though bad move
Sorry to hear that, it didn't have an easy way to transport it and I knew it would not fit in my car... Anyways, thanks for watching.
how do you like it? its truly similar to mine but mine rides really high on the water , and yours seems to sit deeper and track a little better. the hole work well for the flag
Mine probably rides lower due to the benches and hand rails in the back. But then again, yours may have those too. I am comparing it to my first build with had no rails or bench seats... The flag hole works great. Thanks for watching.
That’s why you bed liner the magnet
That is a good idea and thanks for watching.
That cheese is insane?
That boy is funny and thanks for watching.
When are you going to put the bigger engine on?
I hope soon. I really need / want it on before summer. thanks for watching.
Do you have plans chud looks fun. Thanks
Sorry, just seeing you question, i don't have plans, hope you can use the video. Thanks for watching.
I should probably ask on a different video, but how wide is the boat? Did you cut the 8' board or leave it 8'? I'm still gathering materials before I build mine, so am curious. Also, are the motors you use short shaft or long shaft?
Mine is almost 14' long and is 8 ' wide. I didn't have to cut the plywood off, used the full 8'. I suggest long shaft motors. Good luck with your build and thanks for watching.
No straw hats either
I used to always have a straw hat, but don't have one right now. Luckily that was a cloudy day with a bimini top. This summer will probably see another straw hat in my collection of hats. thanks for watching.
(I've asked this under a couple other videos, and I'm still curious)
Could the tiny house fit on this?
They can but then they are called shanty boats. Search on youtube for that term.
It probably would, but I don't know how to lift it that high... I also don't know if the trailer could haul the extra weight. Would be very cool to try out, I may just build a smaller / light tiny tiny house. Thanks for watching.
Maybe I should do a shanty boat next time. thanks for watching.
@@chud327 they are pretty awesome, they make a great getaway spot.
@@robertspencer5219 I really need to look into it!!!
Do you have to get homemade boats like this registered?
If you put any kind of motor on a boat in Florida, it has to be registered. Even if you put a trolling motor on a canoe. The good news is that it was just $32.25 to get it legal. thanks for watching.
@@chud327 Thanks Chud. Your videos are awesome.
Hey is your ponton also goon in the sea ???
So yes or no?
I have had it in the river that leads to the ocean and the second biggest lake in Florida, but not in the ocean yet. Maybe I can take it over to the calm Gulf of Mexico some day. Thanks for watching.
not yet...
@@chud327 you should take it to crab Island nice and calm
Pipe to water
I just released a video of putting a honda engine on an evenrude foot, I was actually thinking of pipping the exhaust to the water. thanks for watching.
Awesome project ..love the putting green.. I'm building a tinyhouse on wheels with a rooftop putting green and pop up tent 👊😎 @just2wildandcrazydags
That sounds super neat, hope I can check it out, thanks for watching
Are you on the St Mary's?
Yes. Thanks for watching.
@@chud327 from Callahan, looked familiar
The thing about magnet fishing is it's meant to clean up the water ways.. This guy missed the 'boat', throws rusting rebar back into the water.
Didn't have an easy way to haul it away, would not fit in a car trunk... Working on getting a truck, but until then I am limited to what I can haul out. Thanks for watching.
@no candy Rust kills the ecosystem, but ignorance doesn't comprehend the ecosystem and fine balances. Iron ore has certainly not turned this river red, and therefore any rust is out of place and is toxic.. Look at any red river.. where Iron deposits are common and you notice there isn't an ecosystem.. But again, ignorance doesn't fathom this.
It
