    Looks awesome man, not sure if you did this or not but incase you didnt heres a tip I learned the hard way. Its best to screw from the thin plywood into the thick supports, this is more true the cheaper the plywood. The threads of the screw will grab the 2x4 really well and the head will press the plywood. Ive seen people go the other way and have the plywood come off the thread (including myself, but not on a boat in the middle of a lake thankfully).

    You can flex seal the outside,use a descent caulk on inside joints( try venus seal not painter's caulk) then spray on bed liner the inside.

  • @PainterD54
    @PainterD54 Před rokem

    If you plan on building one of these, so yourself a favor and brush all your undercoating or sealants on with a brush instead of just spraying things on. You will get a much better seal if you brush it on. It forces the sealant (whatever you choose) into all the cracks and pours so you won't have leaks. and never seal leaks from the inside. Always find leak and seal the wood from the outside of the boat.

    hey man how did you do the deck thinking of doing this build

    • @sicfishing401
      @sicfishing401  Před 7 lety

      hello and thanks for watching. the deck was done after we built the structure and frame.First we cut the side panels and back panel for the frame of the boat.once that was done we used 2x3s to help structure and to have something to glue and screw the panels and floor to. Once that was done we now had 2x3s all around the bottom sides of the boat for structure. Then we did 2x3s all around the topsides of the boat sitting like 2 inches from top for the seats and deck to sit on to and be screwed into place.then we measured out the deck, cut it and installed it....then we did some vertical 2x4s to hold it up. I f you read this then watch video again you should get a good idea of what I am saying . IF not let me know and I will try and make another video better explaining/showing what we did.

      SIC Fishing Thanks for the quick reply I rewatched the video and did understand what you were talking about. a follow up vid would be great I think it would be beneficial to alot of people. I subscribed to your channel and hope to be trying this build over the summer. do you think the front end would hold up the installation of swiveling boat seats?

    • @sicfishing401
      @sicfishing401  Před 7 lety

      awesome i am glad you understood, yes i will definitely make another in depth video on the construction this week or next, i realize now that i rushed the first video due to lack of time. and yes it would definitely hold a swivel seat i just recently helped a friend build a frame and deck with swivel seats and door and its very similar to mine.I have been doing construction work for over 10 years so its nothing new to me!

  • @UnprofessionalProfessor

    What's the weight rating on that bottom? I'm looking to build this, but I'm a 6'7 tub o' lard and that half-inch plywood looks like it won't take much to bust through.

    • @sicfishing401
      @sicfishing401  Před 4 lety +1

      Honestly I'm not sure but I'm thinking because your weight will be distributed a bit you would probably be fine.... I do know it will hold like 300+lbs though we had two guys at 160 plus gear once before
