Painting the frame to fight against future dry rot was a good use of your time especially if the lumber is not pressure treated.
Yes it sure is! Plus in my experience treated wood and aluminum do not go well together. Caused oxidation on mine.
this is a bad ass simple boat, i want the 1542 and emulate this build. good job guys!
And then out of no where!!!!! HE returns!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mac king haha yes sir
*I bought this model for my 14 ft Jon boat. **enjoyable.fishing** recommend love it!!! It pushes my boat with ease ( 2 men 220 each). I would highly recommend this to anyone.*
I built mine almost exactly the same framed out wise. I put my frame on top of the bench seat to ad a shallow compartment for small storage. I I did run a 2x4 down the sides to get rid of the flex like you said and it’s awesome. Mines an alumacraft 1436. I haven’t figured out what to do in the back yet. I want to make something like y’all did just to cover the clutter of the batteries. Keep it up it’s looking awesome. Better than mine by a lot.
lmao atstupid thank you! I bet the supports help. The flex isn’t extremely bad, but it would make me feel a little better if it was there
Honestly after watching my footing today on the lake I don’t know if it would matter that much because my feet barely ever got close to the side that would have felt soft. I don’t remember what y’all said that boat was size wise but me and my buddy spent 5 hours out today on mine and I really tried to see how much I step over that far and it isn’t all that much.
Watching this video gives me some ideas to extend the front deck on my boat.
Good power, good battery life. Quiet and easily moves 14ft aluminum boat.
yessir
A small piece of 2by4 screwed horizontally under each side where it's weak about 6 or 8 inches long from the bottom of the frame to the floor with stop all that squishing in and only add about 10 oz to your weight
Crappie Collector that’s true, not a bad idea
I just gota 12ft flat bottom and the budget way is what I can afford I really appreciate your video's
Love boats
Me too
Looks awesome fellas, I'm starting my project this week hopefully on my 14' job boat
Great job on budget built a couple of things .on the battery area I would have went all the way back and let it be a slide out with your straps. Side supports on front deck . Maybe use fiberglass coating after sealing wood for longer lasting please don't take any offense at my comments chris
Strap hinge! Best idea EVER!!!
Love this! When we go on road trips playing "yellow car" with the kids, you get 1 point for each yellow car you see (and you get 3 points for each boat you see left out in the elements uncovered). The winner gets to choose where to eat dinner.
We played punch buggy. With VW bugs.
And at night we played pediddle. Cars with one headlight out. 1point , trucks two points, buses or tractor trailers 5 points. Motorcycle with only one head light is a bad call , it’s a punch in the leg or arm.
Instead of using carpet. I bought a gallon of roof mastic roof coating and added a lot of pumice to it. Non slip. Water tight, water proof. 2 coats will give you 10 solid years. I built my deck the same way. So I can pop it out for whatever reason. I also have places to insert hammock poles.for my hammock tent. And a fiberglass rib system with a buttoned custom heavy tarp that attaches along the rim of the hull. To enclose the whole boat into a tent and I sleep on the deck in heavy rain. Or only the front 2/3 of the boat if I have to drive it in heavy rain. 3 small anchors and I’ve gone out in the glades for 4 days with it( if I had more time I would have stayed longer). Lots of affordable fun.
Good to see you back! I did the same thing to my 14 footer and used only your videos as a tutorial. It turned out great and my kids love it! Thanks for
the help. Not sure how to post pictures on here but if there is a way let me know & I will share them.
Tyndall Fam that’s great to hear! I’m not sure how to, but if you can do it threw Instagram that would be the best
I'm in the process of doing the same on a 16 ft.
Nice to see ya back!
Thank you! Feels good to be working on a boat again
Now you'll need to make a bunch of videos for Dragg Fishing Co!
Holy beard
6:08 fire in the hole!
Red in the head fire in the hole
Good to see you back at it. Love the beard.
XxFREEBALLNxX thanks! Glad to be back at it
Unacceptable…. You pet that dog! That’s a good boi.
ha
Before and after weights?
Not 100% sure, the weekend warrior kit for this boat ended up around the 75lb range
Finally!!!!!
You said the front deck is basically removable? What does that mean, is it removable or not? Why the word basically? Was that sheetrock screws you used to hold the deck to the frame?
Which jon boat would you recommend the most for like river fishing,2-4 people?I read something about some sinking in ruining water,been watching your videos for quite awhile and the things you do are pretty amazing.
What material is the top deck made out of?
Any reason for the gaps around the front deck, stuff will slip down the pose gaps
How do these additions affect the weight capacity of the boats? As a bigger guy I'm interested to know.
It will make the boat less balanced in the water. Quick movements from an angler can throw off the other person if your not careful. Both of us are around the 185lb range and it’s not bad at all, really comfortable for us
Won’t the mounts for the 2x4’s hurt the aluminum? Dissimilar metals.
Hey truth dissimilar metals, hahahaha ...one is wood.
KING TUT A dissimilar metal example would be attaching anything to an aluminum boat using steel or metal screws. It produces rust and will destroy your boat over the years. SS is the best option of aluminum rivets aren’t available, but SS will also cause issues.
Question I have a 14ft Jon Boat! How much would you change to turn mine into a bass boat? I could bring you the boat!
depends on what you want
Is it marine wood or something else
Like your vids! How come your 16 footer has been sitting for 8 months. You not fish???
Chris Barr been pretty busy, and I have a short somewhere in the trolling motor wires
I have a question about the hatch did you have to trim it to fit the carpet?
So I've been watching your 16' boat build a lot and I want to do my boat almost exactly like it because it's freaking awesome. I was wondering how much it cost you to put in the decks and livewell and carpet and everything not including the batteries and trolling motor. I'm a high school student and I'm worried about possibly getting into a build that ends up being too expensive for me to finish. I know this video is about a budget boat, but I do have enough saved up to make mine better than this one, but I would very much appreciate any information. Thanks
It’s not expensive at all. About 900 and that’s including 2 trolling motors and batteries. Maybe 400 for jus the boat and decks. Which my boat was old I paid 200 for it. Had to fix a few leaks and paint it.
What material did you use for the storage lid on the front deck?
Bad ass
How did the screws not pull the carpet threads when you were fastening the deck down
Thanks
You don't need to fasten them down too much
What is the boat frame called?
weekend warrior kit at tbnation.net
What happened to Dragg fishing co, itried to buy sum and it said u didnt have a website anymore
Yeah, it kinda bombed. We didnt have the time it needed to keep it up.
So did y’all screw that front deck to the boat or what?!?! If so how does that sheet metal hold up
On the back deck, how did you screw the brackets into the boat?
Self taping screw it looks
where did you find a jon boat that cheap plz tell meee
What’s that screw holder thing called
FudgeYourCouch on the drill?
FIREANT FISHING yea the sheath thing that was over the screws while you were driving them in.
I was the 15,000th subscriber.. just sayin. 🤙
Where did you get the jon boat?
Finally lol
MasterMind haha my bad, thanks for hanging in there
Rip van winkle!!! Guy must have been sleeping and growing hair all this time.
Mac Smith hahaha
Did not recognize you with that beard😂😂
Sam Durk hahaha
Where did You buy that carpet ?
Alad33n Home Depot
What kind of framing material is that
painted wood
hope those were not drywall screws. Spend the $$$ stainless steel
Tell me how you get to spend $122 on this
And i went and bought exact same stuff and spend $189 and didn't buy everything yet
First of all, if you had watched the series, you would know we spent more than 112. Second of all, this was years ago. Lastly, if you went and bought all of this to do it to your boat, then I would highly recommend watching the 2 year update..
Lmao this is my old house😂😂
Your website is not working.
Vic Terraglia it does it’s just a little slow. One of the things we are looking into
What’s the odds you’ll sale it to me?
Not very likely
been gone so long he has long hair and beard now lol
Brian Richardson haha
Bro try this build in 2021 and see what you end up with! I bought half the stuff and already $190
Thank Joe B for that 👏
Poor fur ball
His wife said you keep it tiny 😂
Your not building a rocket ,a little out is ok
Lol what... u sponsored your video by your own company? Lol
