I am a weekend explorer in the pacific northwest. When you subscribe to my channel you are going to take part in the discovery of an old abandon road, house or long-lost objects. Learn more about this region and the methods I use to get out including my extremely affordable raft the Intex Excursion 5.

Thank God for the guys who read the manual!
Thanks for the idea man, sincerely God Bless.
When you unscrew the second one does it make the third chamber deflate as well? It seems like my Chambers are merged
@@ambergilles7798 no, definitely not. I don't remember the chamber numbers, but of the the outer chambers (with caps that unscrew) if you deflate one the other will soften just because it lost the rigid support of the other...
When I was a kid my friend's dad told me they're held upright by dead fishermen, to this day they still creep me out
Obviously not true. but yes, it's creepy
Tbe boat is to soft uying a small measuring tape to check presyure IMHO
I agree, I'll usually go a little bit past the measurement. But if you put too much in it won't roll over the waves as easily. Also, as the day gets hotter the air will expand.
Thanks to channels like yours, over the last year, the Ex5 has become really popular here in AZ.. Canyon lake especially.. however, I took mine up to the boat-in camping area and encountered a floating cholla cactus... That WILL PUNCTURE IT!... To the folks who run at nite... Remember this!! Love the PNW!!!!
Thank you. I'm glad to hear they're popular in AZ. That also explains whos been watching my channel- and why these are still priced high on Amazon... Did you manage to close up all the punctures?

No doubt about it

Amazing looking setup!!
Dude, thanks for the video! Finally found everything I needed to see just to make sure I am doing it Right👍🏼👍🏼
@@shubhampatel875 thanks! I have another vid detailing everything you'd need to power the raft
Thanks
Thx, no idea why they did not put a removable valve also in the floor part, so annoying
@@Marcelinho177 100% agree. At the end you can see it could use more deflation- specifically from the floor bladder. Since this vid was made I’ve been using a pump to deflate
Ohh ya baby...
bro! thank you! what an awesome video.

Can you install 2 for full coverage?
You sighs be able to. Intex makes its own canopy now
How long does the battery last? I just bought the exact same setup and wondering on average how long it lasts. Trying to choose a battery now
If you plan on spending the day on the water I wouldn’t get anything less than a 100 amp/hour battery. It’s hard to say house long it’ll last because you’ll be using different speeds, floating with the motor off etc. After a few years we got a lithium battery and that is the best option
looks like Lake Chelan
You got the state right! We’re more Vancouver than Seattle though....
I just bought this boat today. Watching some of your videos for some good ideas!
Thanks! They're a lot of fun!
Any tips with high wind? We got the same boat with a Newport 55LB Thrust trolling motor, and if there's any kind of wind we get blown around like crazy, Even putting the motor on full thrust can barely push back. Second issue is that the wires connected to the batter seem to get crazy hot - Not sure if that's normal.
Thank you!! I needed to know how to deflate the Excursion 4 and you were so helpful!!
Thanks for all the info
How many lbs do you batteries weight?
When I made this vid I had two group 31 lead acid batteries weighing 60 pounds each. Now I use one lithium battery putting out as much power as both of the lead acid bbut weighs 30 pounds
@@ThePNW thanks a lot i just buy a 60 lbs lead acid battery so i think will be safe i was woried thath 60lbs gonna be to heavy XD
Hi! Thanks for all the great information. I'm planning to get one of this boat but getting a bit confused about choosing the engine. I'll use it in wavy saltwater in Florida. If you can give me advice about it I would be appreciated.
Minn Kota makes a salt water motor or I've seen two-stroke engines on Alibaba. Either way, I'd go with high power for the ocean!!
Hey hope all is well. I got my intex 5 because of you. Family loves it! One question, my boat recently got stolen from my car. And I was going to buy the same Intex five. But I saw an all blue version on Amazon. I had the mostly gray partly blue combo. Same As your in this videos. But do you know if there is a difference in quality between the all blue intex five excursions. I don’t see thenall blue for sale on there website. But I see them on Amazon. And they’re all blue. Thanks hope to hear back. Gotta by another boat. Everett, WA
They're exactly the same... You can see an all-blue one in one of my thumbnails. In my opinion, the blue one looks better. Glad you're liking it!

I suggest you buy a Haswing Cayman T. It is a remote controlled 55lb electric engine. They are so much fun.
New here. Thinking about getting a 45 or 55lb motor. What is the benefit of having 2 batteries? Otherwise can I get a full day on the lake with just 1? Thanks
If you get a 100 amp hour battery you could be fine- it just depends on your speed and time running the motor. This page shows amp draw for Minn Kotas motors, those can help determine how long a battery will last: minnkota-help.johnsonoutdoors.com/hc/en-us/articles/6470890831895-Trolling-Motor-Power-Considerations
@@ThePNW thank you! I saw on another comment that you recently got a lithium battery. If you were starting over and wanted it to last at least 4 hours would you get 2 lead batteries or 1 lithium?
Also you stated you had 2 of those Duracell bci batteries. Were you running those in parallel with 2 battery boxes or just one at a time
@@THEMJ25 definitely lithium! A 100-amp hour lead acid battery weighs 60 lbs each and a lithium is 30 pounds and puts out the same as those two. So 120 vs 30 lbs. I did not connect the two- one battery got me out there so the other should get me back. I put alligator clips on my motor so switching batteries was easy.
@@ThePNW makes sense! Thank you for the kind reply! Really appreciate your help! Hope to see more IE5 videos from you this year 😎
Is there any sort of battery cover or lid you need, or do you just hook it right up?
I have a vid on my battery box... And I would definitely use one because water does splash in sometimes
You mean last "shot" is Mt Adams?
Looks peaceful! We bought one to have on the back of our Chris Craft boat on Lake Michigan. We used it to go back and forth to the beach and dunes. I just installed a wooden floor and trolling motor. About had a hear attach rowing with the little paddles with 3 kids, wife and dog with 3’ waves lol
Haha... These are not fun to paddle. One time when our battery died we were towing an innertube so I jumped in it, tied it to the front and tired the Excursion!
Just want to say thank you for all your videos. I haven’t bought all the stuff yet, but am looking forward to it. Just subscribed too. God Bless!
Thank you! We're working on more videos. In the meantime, buy the raft!! You wont regret it
I dont get why they dont have a culture of boaters putting flags on these things to help warn others
They do but it’s very rare.
The flaggers would definitely miss some deadheads so I think it would give boaters a false sense of security.
@@ThePNWFlag the ones you see, and flag the ones you hit afterwards, lol. As a community it should help others along the way.
It’s a deadhead😊
Super helpful. Thank you so much!
Thank you… these are a lot of fun
i hear it can make sinkhooe really?
it can but its really really rare
What size battery are you using? I have a little 30 aH with a 30lb trolling motor
I have a 100 amp hr battery and a 40-lb thrust motor
What a beautiful place !
Awesome!
🍹👍🏼🍹
Place this motor on m Bris 12.5 ft and worked great in saltwater. You have to get it to the highest speed 5 to get it moving when the tide is up. But on calmer waters 3-4 works good for some speed. Easy to use.
