How I Put a REAL Jet Engine on a Kayak
ฝัง

- 1200F Degree exhaust! Screaming at 160 decibels. Rotating at 121 THOUSAND RPM'S! THIS, is the real deal. An airplane jet engine! Just, on a smaller scale. PERFECT, for a ....kayak? Why not?
This video documents all the steps I went through to install this little fiery beast. It only weighs 1.90kg or 4.19lbs! Yet this tiny monster creates 45 pounds of thrust. Thats a good amount of power for the new Pelican Catch PWR 100.
I know Pelican designed this kayak to accept a motor, but I may have taken it too far this time. As my life becomes more and more busy, with a business to run and a TH-cam channel to maintain and now projects like THIS! I might be letting my life get a little too complicated. And this crazy kayak might just scare the heck out of the fish that I have been ignoring lately.
Something tells me that I should've just put a trolling motor on this kayak like Pelican intended. But it's too late for that now.
"Found the holes already, something must be wrong" perfect, spoken like a true fabricator/mechanic.
Sure Marty may be from New York...
But he's definitely a certified 'Florida Man'
Lol
Didn't expect to see Cleetus here.
Barefoot in a metal shop.
Lmfao. Hell yeah.
Oh boy ! Florida man !
That’s definitely not an over used term!! 🙄🙄
Cant belive i found your videos after 3 years, amazing to watch man. Thank you
Greetings from the Sherwin Williams next to AeroPanda. Awesome project, video doesn’t do justice for how loud those engines are!
Love crazy builds, I like doing unusual things too. Who else sees a hour video from Marty and thinks "is that all the longer it is", if he had 4 hour videos I would watch them
If I had that shop I'd never leave except to go fishing. Very cool.
You and me both.
Hey Marty, it was great to meet you in person. My wife and I want to thank you for taking the time to visit with us and show us around your shop, especially the jet kayak before you unveil it. We loved watching the build video and can't wait to see it on the water!
He's truly something isn't he? I went and visited a week ago and he did the same for me. Showed me around, went through the build with me. Even set off the fire suppression system with me a bit too close. :D (startling when you're not expecting it) I just need more stickers for the other side of the car and my yak.
He's a heck of a guy, gave me 3 stickers I would have bought a dozen I'm going to try to get down there once more before he sets sail.
Same here. Starting my stabilizer build this weekend, hoping to be able to test it off of his launch.
I was sold at "JET KAIYAK"...... but when you borrowed the "0" sticker to turn 100 into "1000".......plus dancing the CABAGEPATCH once the rudder pulley worked!!!......lmfao! I was certainly like "OH YEAH!!! THIS GUY'S THE MAN!!!"
I can’t imagine seeing the hacksmith’s face after seeing Zoffinger create something that they tried doing but never worked.
the hacksmith is a joke!
Why do you think they call him the hacksmith?
It’s because he can’t smith anything unless it makes him look like a massive hack.
No hacksmithing here
Yeah, he copied the lightsaber idea from ALEX LAB without credit and and just put more expensive components on it that he could afford.
@@theyeetus1428 alex lab made an electrolysis powered hydrogen flame lightsaber whereas the hacksmith made a laminar flow propane (I think) torch protosaber. Also you can’t really say someone’s copying someone else when they were both inspired by a massive film franchise
You ARE engineering my friend. In human form. Raw talent indeed.
"Am I getting to boring?" part made me laugh harder than it should.
THAT is one of the coolest and most entertaining build videos I have ever watched. Thanks for doing what you do Marty!!!
Hey Marty !!! You have one of the best channels on TH-cam. I can’t wait for the loop.
I followed your instructions for a fishing kayak crate and worked out perfect!....Great!🤦🏻♂️ ... now I need to build a jet engine😅
watch the whole thing better than everything on netflix. If you skip then do you really deserve the wisdom found here? this is what dreams are made of. Love this Mr Z
You should have a bidirectional nozzle for that jet. It’ll help with the attitude of the kayak with speed and directional inputs.
Thrust vectoring like the F-35. Dat yak will get on plane quick.
Marty....... You're fucked up, like a football bat.
Nah he's got a paddle boat rudder it will be fine
A multi-directional nozzle with enough travel to affect heading of the boat would be too complicated and require more futzing around, not saying it wouldn't be cool but very complex.
Me: uses half a tube of silicon for the 3 screws used to hold down an Xtra rod holder
Zoff: where's my dremel....
Thanks for showing hubby and I a sneak peek of this in person back in July . It was fun meeting you and the pups!
I almost never watch a video, especially a long one, at normal speed. Marty, you sped up at all the places I would have. Perfect. I just sat back and watched. Good to see you back. I've missed your Life of Marty videos.
I love how everything you do seems to be well thought out. You really seem passionate about what you’re doing. It’s fun to watch.
I find myself coming back to your videos every now and then, still entirely entertained by the projects you've built. I've been subscribed for quite a long time, the first video I watched was you making custom PVC pontoons on one of your kayaks in which looking back, was done 7 years ago! (I was 15 at the time, now 22) thanks for the inspiration and giving me the courage to work on my own boat projects! Hope you are doing well in these crazy times.
I applaud your ability to keep such a clean shop. I do the same till I'm deep into a build. When that happens people may say it's a mess but I know exactly where everything is..... mostly.
Very good video, I like the information that seniors provide
Holy Crap!!!!! You ACTUALLY did it!!!! This vessel should be dubbed "HOLD MY BEER" !!! JUST AWESOME!!!
Zoffinger you’re probably the best TH-camr out there since you actually do exactly what you say you will (with absolutely 0 exaggeration or gray area), and you never half ass it!
This was a very interesting video, but I must say, your jokes really brought it home for me. "Got about a 50/50 chance of rigging it backwards" lmao
Like Bob Lazar with a sense of humor.
The way marty does these vids and his wonderful way of explaining the process, makes me want to suggest that he should replace the narrator on the tv show How it's made.
You did an awesome job. I also have "concentration tongue" that I inherited from my Dad. He was a tool and die maker and I think it he would be impressed with your work. Thanks for the video. Tom
Sir, I love his channel because you build awesome stuff and you show all the intricate details that snag projects. Thank you for these videos and your channel.
Without a doubt, the MOST AWESOME kayak build EVER!!! It was an honor to meet you earlier last year and I wish you all the best!
Such a gem of a channel and grateful I found it. And a stand up guy to boot. I'd rather donate now and then to a man like Marty then some corp conglomerate like netflix or (God forbid) cable providers any day of the week. I dropped them all years ago and never looked back. I suggest you all pay the 9.99 for youtube premium, and toss everything else.
Everyone should share this video ..... by far the best build!!!!! Going to miss these build videos when you do the loop
When in doubt, cut another hole! I can just imagine the next video; triple jet engines with after burner! Marty, you have an amazing creative mind!
I'm pumped to see this thing take off!!
Screws matter Too! Long live the screws 😀
Silver screws matter 😄
Holy Moly! An hour video, *SWEEEEET!!!* Marty is definitely going to win the kayak race. I'm scare to see Marty next project. He might tear down the whole building to complete it, lol.
That’s insane man!!!!! This thing looks like it would literally be gliding across the water 😂 Great work.
Really nice work! Finally a TH-camr who doesn't do everything with hot glue and rivets!
Marty I bought a Catch PWR because of you. It's my first kayak and I'm loving Pelicans products. Had a great season with it and I cant wait to upgrade it for next season. Whenever the borders open I plan on coming down to Florida so I hope you're around to share a couple beers. Thanks for all the great content, Cheers.
I absolutely love all the kayak mods!!! Being and aircraft mechanic this just gets me all excited. Can't wait for the next video!!
Did you just had me watching your video for 54min???? lol. It felt like 20min. LOL.
Good job brother, amazing ideas, edit, and yak.
Ok guy you need to hurry up with a test drive i have got to see this and its like waiting for a new TV series to come out so hurry up and use that jet fuel. 😆 🤣
Wow, this is a mega build. Nice job Marty. It'll be great to see her run, with you at the helm, of course.
Keep up the good work. Like from me.
AMAZING!!! You are probably the best DIY on TH-cam!
You are the Master Craftsmen!
ingenious! This guy can do a lot with just an idea and a well stocked tool shop/playground. He's living my best life!
So COOL! It's gonna ZOOM across the water!
Awesome! Just in time for my winter project - redoing my crappy diy rudder. Just the tricks i need to polish out the details. Thanks Zoff
Mister kayak pro jetson. Really neat work, detail is very productive. Nice work!
Marty....your creativeness, thought process, and ingenuity amazes me. Just wow! And AWESOME!!!!!! Keep doing what you're doing! 🙌 Cant wait to see it in action!
When I woke up today I didn't think I would hear the words kayak and jet engine in the same sentence... But I am very glad that I did!!
I just ran across this video & love the design followed for the rest !
Hey, I'm not sure if you will see this but, every time you build something I get inspired to do it myself. The only problem is that I'm 15 and I dont have the resources or money for the projects. I love your videos keep up the great content👍
Very fun video Marty Thanks for all that work
Oh, I need a return spring for my jet powered kayak throttle. Lemme just salvage the front door. I love it
So glad i found this channel. Been looking for the best way to add front steering to my trolling motor on my pwr100.
I like the rabbit and turtle on the throttle. Clever Marty. Haha.
Nice shop !
It appears that you are a successful business person with plenty of spare time to build cool stuff 👍
Very cool 😎
Marty I sure hope you have a wonderful life because every time I watch one of your videos it brightens my life. May You be Blessed in all you do
Man if someone ever comes up with a computer that can read humans minds and capture their dreams and ideas, you need to be the first in line. The computer would melt down from overload. throwing syntax errors!! you come up with some pretty wild stuff man, I hope you never lose that ability. stay safe and keep building your dreams. awesome stuff!
Can you race that with my 12 speeds bikes 🚲😂😂😂😂 . Nice one Mr. Marty 👏👍
It's been a long time coming but nice one Marty! Bit of a tease that we didn't get to see it running in this video, so please don't keep us hanging for months with the next installment! Stay safe & well.
Just when I think there is no way he can out do his last build, I was dead wrong! Awesome build man
I don’t know enough about jet engines to have a guess at what it will do, but I can’t wait to see! That thing is some amazing fabrication. So clean!
instant subscribe! you provide a wealth of information which is applicable in many other builds. thank you for the introduction to king starboard too!
I don't care if it works or not....your true talent Marty shines through every shot in this video. Keep making and we'll keep watching! Just kidding, I hope it screams along the river.
This is the most amazing thing I’ve ever watched.
THIS DUDE AND THIS CREATION ARE AWESOME! ARENT THEY!?!?
Loudest kayak ever . Great job
Been watching you for quite a while and always enjoy your build videos. From the out rigger project in your old living room to this jet powered video. Look forward to the first run on the "Little Manatee Salty Water Flats."
Oh man - watched the whole thing with no PAY OFF!!! What a bummer. I actually caught this video late and was hoping the water test would be uploaded by now, but its not. What a cliff hanger man!!! Excited to see it go!
Every fishing dad clicked on this and immediately googled "how to get a jet engine"🤣
Hahahahah I bet😏
I own this kayak qith out the motor. All jokes aside this thing looks beautiful the way he did it with all the colors and shyt. Most people when they do it it looks like it was made in their backyard this looks somewhat like it came off the line yesterday. I love the black, bright orange and blue colors together
Yup I already googled jet kayak
Sound effects and speed up time frame is hysterical! Great job!
I love your wacky builds.....nice work Zoffinger!
Dude mad props for your creativity
A jet engine on a kayak? Wow it can't get more epic then that!
I admire your confidence when customizing things.
You sir, are a great American hero.
Hey Marty I love your videos man you Inspire me to do more kayak fishing
So awesome...good to see you and the pups...can't wait to see the boat on the water!!
A year of waiting like a little kid for Christmas! I recon it should go 88mph and go back to the future.
This is what I enjoy seeing you do, build stuff.
You are truly amazing my man!! Just a little tip, the next time you have to bend pvc with heat, cap off both ends with duct tape and it will keep air pressure inside and prevent any kinks when bending.
As a lifelong fisherman, artist and Jack of all trades. This is like a dream job for someone like me. I'd be in MacGyver heaven! That Star board looks like some really useful material and thats one bad ass looking kayak.😳
can't wait to see this MONSTER kayak on the water sure it will work like every thing that you bild ,
MARTY you alway impress me with your project keep up the good work you'r the best!
i love how you say cutting threads makes you feel like a accomplished maker when your building a rocket boat!!
Wow you are quite an engineer and craftsman. Loved watching your video.
Can't Wait to see this on the Water. i bet it's Awesome!!
Marty goto the moon next time we see him lol loving the build
Congratulations, great job. I wish I had a kayak like that too.
I’m hoping it kicks ass good luck. 1st time on here,interesting,I’ve got some ideas for that little jet.
That was a cool build can`1t wait to see it run and push the Kayak . The things you come up with .
I love the fiery passion towards rivets
Another master fabricator like myself nice job marty maby one day we'll hook like Edison Ford and firestone lol
For me it doesn't matter what you build .
I am enjoying your tricks hacks.
Thanks .👌👌
OMG insane build...... Only you my friend only you. Can't wait to see it on the water.....
Keep innovating Marty, my friend ! It'll keep keep you young and alive with life.
OK well my name is Brian from Queens, NY and I love seeing my friends and others succeed. But I'm not sure that it has enough thrust. If I'm wring I will give you a thousand apologies. IDK that is just my prediction. I can't wait to see!!! Love you Marty!!! I love the channel.
45 pounds? For calm water it should be fine but direct thrust from turbines is typically not very efficient, especially the small ones.
Marty you have done it again! When I got the notification and saw that your video was almost an hour long I hit the pause button and made some popcorn and sat back to enjoy the best TH-cam video creator on line! Thank you again for all your hard work. I can not wait for the BLAST OFF of the JET PWR 1000. May I suggest a flight suit and helmet! ;)
I love the visual speedometer 😀🤣
Subscribed quicker than igniting the after burner.
