    Build one of these years ago but used a longer PVC that would not let water in and the PVC PIPE provide bouancy..vs the foam you use, i wrapped mine with nylon turf [carpet]...nice job!

    Great idea👍When drilling stainless steel try irrigating the point where the bit touches the metal with water. Use a spray pump bottle to keep the metal cool, drill bit sharp and you can drill at higher speeds.

      I’m sorry your home was threatened by the Marina management. Forgive me for saying so, but It seems that wherever you are in the world, there will be always be a marina, close by, that is blighted with a bully culture.

    I like it... maybe it's a bit wide to follow the curves tightly.

    You can sail up a river too.

    • @stormsail
      @stormsail  Před 11 měsíci

      It depends on the river. The old saying go's... On a sail boat, "don't sail into a shallow place that you can't sail out of."

    I really don't like simple ideas but good ideas but they want to talk it through. I would have liked to see a before and after look of the bottom of the boat. But I got tired of this so I'm leaving.
