    🌴 Hey Forest , ha,ha,are we having fun yet! Well ya just made a silk purse out of a sow’s ear , she was ruff, but y’all turned it around , and it was move’n along pretty good on the water , I just got my transom in yesterday day on project nano flats skiff and got to grind and cover it with glass if it doesn’t rain on me , then I can start cutting out my front seat area to make my front casting platform , it is an 11’ - 1965 Cacci craft - three seat fiberglass fishing boat that will get converted into a forward and aft deck mini flats skiff , undecided yet on weather to cut out the mid seat because it could be used as dry storage 🤔 I’ve got a refurbished 1977 Johnson 15 horse all re done waiting to go on it , all my products are from Fiberglass coatings ,I’m lucky enough that there only a mile down the road from me 👍🏼 been waiting for some vids from ya , 👍🏼👊🏼

    Hey man, another fun one! Thanks for sharing. Sorry she didn’t make the crossing but it will happen. What are you doing with the Dusky?!

    • @diywaterworld
      @diywaterworld  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Mark! Thanks so much buddy, always happy to see your comments! Yeah, a bit of a bummer but she’ll make it over sooner then later! And haha, you’ll see soon enough ( my next upload ) what I did with the dusky parts and new project 😎. It’s actually an old Aquasport 196 I’m building and I was repurposing the old Dusky inboard engine cover for it and for this skiff . 🙃. Stay tuned !

    • @diywaterworld
      @diywaterworld  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Agreed 100%! Considering how many are out there for little to no money, an Dd how solid they laid the hulls up back then, they’re hard to beat!

  • @dannyv2335
    @dannyv2335 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I’d like to see a nice 19’-21’ pilot house skiff. I know that kinda hinders a skiff’s abilities but I’d still like to see it.

    @melvincolvin7123 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I am working on my project skiff and i like the way you mounter the throttle and shifter to the side of the boat. How did you mount it? I dont want to put holes in the side of the boat.

    Hey man I love the videos .. I wanna build a composite decked Johnson skiff I have a 14 footer I want to extend the fiberglass hull to 16 foot with a slight tunnel on the bottom … how should I go about getting the best bond and strength from the transom to the extension I build , would love some fiberglass to composite material tips as well , I’m in central Florida , Fish crystal river tones and love small skiffs for skinny water , see tons of these hulls like the one in the video for 200 or so bucks . if I built it with minimal weight about how deep does it draft you’d say ? Or should I look for a more flat bottomed hull ? I like fiber glass but may build a jet jon since it’s a lower unit killer around here

    What paint did you use, inside outside

    • @diywaterworld
      @diywaterworld  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Great question. Interior was Oil based Rustoleum paint with use of a Hardner from tractor supply that makes it dry faster and gives it great durability / UV protection. I’ll throw some links up soon.
      Exterior was Gel Coat from FGCI.com
      I’ll tag you when I list links. Cheers!
