Nice work!!

Is that a long shaft?

Thanks for the inspiration. You did an amazing job.

Why do you guys get inflatables and then trailer them?

Cool

What is the top speed you get , its look very cool .

After many failed attempts to repair the air leaks in both of my Zodiac MkIII speed tubes, I finally came to the conclusion they cannot be fixed. I have tried patches, seam sealer from the inside, aqua seal and just pumping them up every single day. ENOUGH! I ordered some 2 part foam and decided to fill them with closed cell foam. This was not easy, but I found a technique that was successful. Tools: knife or scissors to cut tube material, I used a victornox fixed blade knife. Very sharp. Plastic paint mixing cups at least 28 oz quart or liter sized, have at least 6 on hand Paint mixing paddles and a drill (amazon $10 for a dozen) A plastic 1 quart milk jug cut in half to make a sort of funnel. 4 flimsy plastic bags like what you use at the market for veggies 2 people A large bin for accidents (you will understand in time) thin rope or twine First, I cut around the patch where the inflation tubes connect to the speed tubes and drain any water out Using the rope or twine, hang the tube up with the fat end at the top and this is where you will be working from. The tube must be vertical for this to work. The goal here is to get the plastic bag in the tube but fill it from the outside of the tube. insert the open end of the flimsy plastic bag, up through the milk jug small hole, bring it through and over the cut edges of the milk jug, like it's a trash bag liner, but now it's lining the funnel. Stuff the closed end of the bag into the hole in the speed tube and by blowing in the open end, you can inflate the bag a bit and also be sure the throat is clear to pour the foaming mix through. mix the 2 part foam according to the directions on the package, mine said pour the clear part into the mixing cup first, then the dark part. I would make no more than ~28oz at a time, very important. If you have never used this stuff before, I suggest you do a tiny batch to see how it reacts, maybe a 4oz +4oz batch and watch it go so you understand how much time you have. Mix for exactly 20 seconds, no more, and try to get it a uniform yellow color in that time. Pour the mix through your plastic bag lined funnel into the bag which should be inside the tube and once it's all in there, drop the bag to the bottom of the tube, where it will expand and fill the tube from the bottom. You might ask why all this effort and plastic bag nonsense? If you just pour the mix in, it will stick to the insides of the tube and start expanding and block off your ability to get the bottom filled. By dropping the plastic bag to the bottom, it will all expand down there from the bottom and foam upwards. You will have to do this at least twice and then after the two bag drops, you can just make smaller batches and fill the rest up just by pouring it in. Tips, mix 20 seconds and POUR, fast, have someone holding the funnel in place and ready to go. Wait about 5-10 minutes between pours. Make sure everything is at least 70 deg F to start, the foam won't expand well if colder. You will need more than the product suggests, the inner volume of the MK3 speed tubes is 1.8 cubic feet each. I used almost 3/4 of the "2lb" kit on one tube. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08RP8DNDB foam www.amazon.com/dp/B0BHS4HS5Z mixers www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000VUNXIA/ cups When you want to put the tubes in place, try and elevate the boat and support it maybe on the trailer, or hang it, but get it up higher than sitting on the deck, I hung mine from the ships crane. get a bucket with warm water and squirt some dish soap in it to make a super soapy mix, slather it all over the tube and have someone keep slathering as you slip the tube into the sleeves under the boat, I used a 4x4 as a hammer to smack the tube in the last foot or so, it was tight. If you do this, remember you will not be able to fold these tubes up ever again, so understand that. You may not be able to get them out of the sleeves again either, I make no promises. I have had this boat for 10 years and only rolled it up once. My next one will be a hard bottom RIB. Good luck.

Amazing.

Can you waterski/wakeboard behind this setup?

Wow, nice work! I have a fat tire ebike with Sidecar, but I didn't build mine.

Spectacular design, but it only has one problem, the floor is glued and will not withstand all that weight for long.

awesome build,hope to see a video of this riding with your dog😍

I'd rather make a trailer out of aluminum and at least I'll have a stop light and turn signals and at least my trailer will cling to the trunk and not to the wheels because if the Trailer clings to the wheels then the wheel will be broken and the wheel will break and you don't have to write that you can't put a stop light on a bike and the turn signals are still as far as possible on a regular high-speed bike and on a fatbike, not on an electric bike and not on an electric fatbike, and I also forgot to write that my trailer will be closed for all countries and also made of aluminum First, we buy aum from electro great Secondly, we buy a headlight in front with a signal from an electric bike And thirdly, we buy a stop signal and turn signals from an electric bike And fourthly, we buy a handlebar extension on a bike And fifth, we buy turn signals from moto to put in front And sixth, we buy a 12 volt converter in order for the turn signals from the moto to work both in front and on the trailer and a stop signal And in the saddle, we buy an outlet for the trailer And in addition, we buy a turn signal from moto on the trailer, as well as a stop signal And at 9 and at the bike Camper, all this will be what I wrote above And at 10 on the Dog Trailer, too, that's all that I wrote above

a trailer that clings to the trunk is a billion times better than a side trailer catch a dislike if you don't know that a passenger trailer for a bicycle is better than a side trailer where only one person can sit is firstly and secondly trailers for a bicycle are a billion times better unhooked Trailer and attached another let's say cargo or let's say a bicycle camper or let's say a carriage for a bicycle where both two people and three can sit, or let's say a dog trailer where at least there will be a stop light and turn signals, unlike your bike

Peter, You did a VERY nice job on the build but you’re totally wrong about sidecar geometry. It’s true trike wheels are in line but It’s totally different for a sidecar. Search google for “sidecar geometry diagram”. There will be many results. They will all show the sidecar wheel between 8 and 10 inches ahead of the cycles rear wheel. There are many reasons for this. The main reason is it makes a sidecar rig turn EASIER and keeps the cycle rear wheel on the ground when turning left under braking with a load in a right hand sidecar. Sidecar Bill

Typically the sidecar wheel should be ahead of the bikes rear wheel not in line with it.

The bike industry needs to do this...great job !

Great!

came away with some great ideas, great video!

Hey Pete, just wondering why you have gone onto other pages and been a asshole, I used to watch you but unsubbing can’t believe how you’ve acted

It was fun when I did mine. Key is don't rush it. A feature I didn't mention is the rope/pvc ladder that clips on the steering frame to get in after swimming.

Amazing, you inspired me to build one like yours!

That is one awesome boat setup 😮

Мне кажется это слишком долго. Берешь лодку чтобы дно высокого давления . Приехал надул и на румпиле

👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍🤔🤔

Are the seats and controls original? I can't find them here in Italy! your zodiac is beautiful!!

Nice setup and very nicely done. I’d like to know more about the folding trailer that you keep at the side of your house. Where did you buy it from? I am looking to get one for my inflatable.

Might as well just have a jet ski

Very impressive work!

I like the way you do things. Somewhat simple but adequate and not over-thinking The end results

I'm all about those speed tubes, brother!

Nice work

Nice build, I don’t plan on building mine the same way, but you gave me some great ideas thanks.

Very smart build! I was wondering how costly were your add ons? I am looking to get a 15ft Saturn or like and build the rear just like you did but i need something like a small V-shaped lounge seating area in the front for my kids. Can you share any thoughts?

About 14' and top speeds 37 mph. Should be faster it seems to me but the fabric isn't as slippery as fiberglass.

That’s fantastic your a very cleaver man!! What size is your boat and what’s the top speed?

Amazing Engineering!! Great ideas and super build.

Build list with all the links would be awesome

Bro that’s so cool😊

Would you make one and sell it to me?

Nice setup for your boat! Can you make a review video of your console pilot sir?

Nice video. Good work done!

Top!!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏

Top!!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏

Love the way you tilt the trailer to its side. I also want to move my small jet ski trailer into my backyard through a narrow gate. What are the sizes of the square tubing you used for the side wheels? Did you weld it onto the trailer yourself, or did you get someone to weld it for you?

That's awesome! i've been wanting a sidecar for my dog but they're too expensive. The cheapest one I found is 2k! Probably will go this route

Me gusta la consola con los 2 asientos

Mad skills!

Çok güzel keşke ben de öyle bir zodiac bot sahibi olsam.Bizim ülkemizde çok pahalı orjinal zodiac botlar

Make me one for my dogs ! 💕
