      And this is exactly how some of the greatest inventions that we have today came about, just some guy like Marty in his garage using his Heart, his knowledge, his tools, money and the guts to go ahead and do it resulting in him building his dream, Nice work Marty. Never give up on anything that you dream of and really feel that you can do it, Much respect for what you even try to attempt in the future, keep up the good work, one day one of your ideas is going to make you very wealthy. Sure there are a lot of other triple engine boats out there but this one was your own build on a much smaller scale than the other big expensive boats out there and a lot of us regular guys who works 40 hrs a week and are not very wealthy we could afford something nice like this. Like you said, It should be called the poor man's triple engine dream, It's different and probably could be very affordable if you ever decided to really get into these small triple engine smaller boats. P.S. Electric star would be very nice or it could be an option? The end result was just fantastic, I loved it. You should really think about producing more of these boats??

    Maybe I am 4 years late. But I liked the video and found it very entertaining. As an industrial electrician and supervisor, I was forever engineering things to suit the applications. I also was great at bending 4 inch electrical conduits in sets side by side, with all matching bends. Once in a museum I designed a 24' x 30 rack of Unistrut suspended by 3/8 all thread rod and nuts the hung below a 30 foot ceiling. A tract light system was mounted to it. spot lights were installed to shine on art exhibits. It looked marvelous I must say. But I am retired now and I spend my time wishing I was back at work creating things needed for the proper applications, and watching videos on You tube. I am glad I came across this one. I like that you are meticulous, a problem solver and perseverant. I did keep asking, Why doesn't he just go buy a boat that is already got everything on it. It would be less trouble. But I get it. You have to give the heart what it desires. I know. Loved your video.

    What a phenomenal project. I am an avid fisherman, boater and frankly anything with a “motor man”. Working from the heart
    is a venture in itself, but satisfying more than many things in life. BTW I am a Silent Gen old dude. Harley Davidson born. As a boat racer,
    I found it amazing how many “norms” you defied in the name of building what you called impractical but fun. Be safe and enjoy your one of a kind machine.
    Further in the name of safety you might want to play around with props (lean on a the same old pro you did for steering) as well as trim angles of the motors to get that nose up a bit. Safe and I bet it would go faster. Just an observation. I found humbling myself has got me a very long way. God bless.

    I don't skip any of the details, I watched your entire video without blinking, very inspiring. but all this, backed up with engineer ideas and also complete equipment. and work ethic. even if you say it's crazy, but i say it's amazing, the idea of changing something and executing it is the real act of how we live life. may God bless your business and all your hard work which is an inspiration to others.
    impressive !!
    God bless

    I grew up in Miami putting me close to home built boats and buggies of dozens of different shapes and sizes. I must say
    watching your thought process and then building it,putting it in the water and operating successfully was brilliant. You're truly awesome 👌. Thanks for the time and trouble you went to for your viewers. You're right about the 115 HP. I'd love to see that. #1 Airboat Man

    Change out the props for a higher pitch ones, you’ve got 3 motors on the back so the acceleration loss shouldn’t be a concern

Boat speed is 10 miles per hour max but I will use all of it for the build. Thanks and the plastic bits look fantastic.
