    Just saw the Instagram photos! Awesome! Yours seems to be one of the better builds on RUclips…. I’m about to Fiberglass mine soon…. I just weighed mine and is 136lbs and hopefully under 150 by the time I’m done. I will build a solo one like yours after!

    Love it! Been wanting to build one of these since I built my foam kayak. Might actually get around to it this year. Yours is looking killer already, even in the first video. Nice job!

    Real nice boat and I see you have some beach wheels for it on the shelf already. Makes me want to build another one, I am currently on my 3rd foam boat build now and can't wait to finish

      Cheers mate this is my first im really enjoying my it! the beach wheels are for my hobie they will also work on the skiff but I've made the skiff to fit the standard hobie wheels at the back so I can wheel it around easy

    dude that is so cool, I didn't even think a boat could be build like this! Does it flex? I would think it would at least need some stringers.

      Thanks mate Yea alot of people will tell you, you can't build a boat like that but it definitely can be done it hasn't got any flex at all there is a single stringer up the middle but I think you could build it without a stringer you would just have to be careful moving it around b4 you fiberglass cause the foam could snap in half

    That’s a sick build, I’ve been toying with something similar. Where did you get your composite boards from?

    What machine did you use in sanding and shaping the foam?

    • @thefishinglair2467
      @thefishinglair2467  Год назад +1

      I just used a normal sander that they use for wood but someone has suggested in one of the comments a power planer would be alot better for removing the bulk then a normal sander to finish it off
