Oh Em Gee Mel is such a good sport, that was hilarious 😂 😂
Omg, I laughed so hard with that little boat, I told and showed my wife, she laughed too, caused she remembered my comment when you cut it. Excellent work, runs like a top. Work on them balloons,funny shit.
Great job Captain
Or is it Gilligan? 🤣😂😂 But then again, James could be the Professor or the Millionaire. Mel is definitely MaryAnn. It's Gilligan's Island v2. 😁
@@nawtsurprised I agree
The best part of that CB Media video was when he says, will you ride in my boat and she says no….. I can’t swim, and he says, you don’t need to swim….. I think you can float😂😂😂
Awesome 👌 video brother. The wife to 😁 😂 😀 🤣
Thanks 👍Mel is a blast
Nice mini speed boat. Boy howdy I tell you are the man ! Your iivin in paradise you have banana trees and coconut trees in the backyard you have some cows and some egg laying roosters and a beautiful wife the grows your food. Your truly blessed brother. Love your vlog great sense of humor.
Wow, thanks!
You nailed it. He is a Filino from Texas
Glides on the ocean great to have such a simple boat that runs so well 😁
Yes indeed! Thank you Mark
Thanks man for sharing your experience and knowledge about boat building to our kababayans 🖒
Great sport couple! 🇵🇭💕
She look real good James and the boat looks good also 😂😂❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🇵🇭🇵🇭🤠
Im so Proud your helping our Filipino Fisherman to have idea of Enduro Machine / Yamaha Outboard and put LED Solar Light in your boat..Nice Job IDOL TEXAS FILIPINO...more videos and more ideas for our fisherman..💖💖💖
CB media is one of the only other channels I fallow regularily. great channel
You can use these 2 tasty headlights as an anchor
The boat is cool i still think it needs some flames
Great boat my friend
That must be jelly, cause jam don't shake like that ! Maybe some of it was leftover energy from all the screaming.Thanks James, thanks A LOT 🤠
Could be
finally a banka without a thump thump noise of a rusted muffler.
Join in bangkarera in town of San Joaquin Iloilo this January 19 hope to see you there
That sounds fun
Just for grins, would love to see you put a Yamaha 150 on it! That would be the most AMAZING video!
I’d be figuring out a way to wire up a steering wheel, with cables to the rig, to make it even more comfortable!
You get CB's babe in that bangka boat and you better watch out. I'm on my way!! LOL
you will wake up, get your coffee, go out on your balcony to watch the sunrise, then you will notice your bonka is gone. mel is out jamming in it. needs a craig power play tho
Very slick conversion. Looking to buy a boat here in 2 weeks. Tomorrow I will be in the Santo Nino boat Parade here in Basey.
I like Chad's high-speed milkshake machine 😂😂😂😂
James the boat mods looking great. follow your heart...
awesome fast craft
That is a great Philippine boat. I know that you are not going to change anything but when I saw this I was thinking that that would be a ideal stick steer boat. I had one years ago and it would fit your boat perfectly. Not a criticism just sharing an idea.
Good morning Jeff - Hope you have a great weekend.
Awsome video buddy Melinda is so funny boat is great looks like it will go pretty fast great job James God Bless you both
Thanks 👍
Hi James good speed on the boat I almost lost a boat motor due to turning the motor 90 degrees and giving it gas and the motor came up on the side and after that I drilled 2 holes for which were 5m,m deep in the back stem I think was 25 m,m to get the screw these 5 m,m to screw it in the back stem so now it will never come off again
Hello Po that boat runs out really good I figured it would be fast because of the size of it & being powered by a 25 hp 2 stroke .
Bro if a wanted a extended steering section for that boat I wouldn't even think about a long handle ext off of control arm because your right you would have to stretch out farther on turns . I would set up a stick steering system on it if that's what I wanted . But I don't see anything wrong with it the way it is . QUESTION == Are you going to name that boat James?? If so what are you thinking 🤔?? Take care Kuya. Mabuhay. & God Bless yall 🙏.
I have owned that boat many years. I named it Leo Frix after Melinda's late brother that passed at 19 yrs old and was such a smart young man with a bright future. It was brilliant. When Marvin took it briefly he renamed it after his son. I now am at a cross road to put its original name back or give it a new beginning with a new name. It will be a support boat to our diesel cabin cruiser. In the future as I establish better infrastructure for boats here at our place I may upgrade to a larger boat like a troller or catamaran. Our original plan when we bought this place was to but a live-a-board catamaran and beach it here on this lot during storm season. We planed to have the garage and outdoor cr/ shower but no house. I regret not following through with that. Now I may still do it - time will tell.
@@TexasFilipino That's sooo cool James the ideal about the Catarmaran is a definite turn on for myself . Sounds like a great way to live there in the PI . And if you choose to get one for just the resort for yourself & guests would be a grand addition to the place wow what a cool ideal Po . Mabuhay & GOD BLESS YALL .
James, the ready made extensions i have seen had a universal joint at the attachment point, you can steer lock to lock without the long reach you described. Only time I considered one was on a square stern canoe so I could shift my body weight forward for stability.
That is very true. There is a lot of options - It works great as it is but there could always be upgrades.
Now imagine that bangka is a fiberglass that will fly😂
😀 Great video James. It looks like you are having more fun with this Banka boat project as compared to your cabin cruiser!!! The main difference is that whoever rides in the Bangka is gonna get wet :D , but it's going to be a fun time!
I am just an island away from you, we are on Masbate Island, been here since 2012
Philippines hasn’t changed in the 50 years that I’ve know it. 🎉😊
If you can buy or engineer an extension with just the right curve to it, that should compensate for the wider arc to the steering the further up the boat you go. Since the distance to the captain's chair isn't that much, the curve shouldn't be too big either, so it should be manageable The downside is that you'd lose seating space at the back since the curved handle will take up space, but if there's a way you can make it removable so you can swap between the short or long curved handle bar, then you'd have the best of both worlds.
it does not need a extension, I'm here driving it and it works perfect and easy
@@TexasFilipino Sure thing, just giving a suggestion on something you might try if you feel like putting one in the future. The right S curve should compensate for the wide turning angle, just saying.
James are you still going to motivate the out riggers some?
And you and Mel made me laugh talking about the ice cream girl. He'll to me she looked more like the dairy queen to me haha 😂
I'm wondering why you didn't go with a rear transom plate ( Aluminum ) with adjustable tilt control? It would secure the motor as well as avoid damage to the boat itself and make it easier to remove and replace as well as if you went adjustable you could trim it out either manually or automatically.. with an automatic trim ... electric or hydraulic !
this is a simple setup. Now your adding heavy setup and more complex for no reason Keep It Simple
@@TexasFilipino The piece I am talking about mainly is a U shaped slide over plate that allows you to bolt your engine against it and not the boat itself. It protects your hull and you can get or make adjustable plates that help to trim your engine. I'm all about keeping things simple. I've had a lot of boats and wooden boats with engine bolted directly to them tend to give... the wood make be strong but the constant vibration and pressure isn't good for the boat.. So obviously it's up to you. Maybe ask someone there that's a boat builder see what they have to say... I always avoid bolted directly to wood... if possible.
I'm sure you know but make sure that set to trip to protect your skag and those corals bud!
Skeg
Good job
2:28 as a guy with a 25yamaha that dam near killed me dieing of laughter lol
my 25 2stroke picks fights with my friends mercury 40 4stroke and wins love my yamahas
6:17 you turn the 2 handles so they're tight and place the handles together so the holes are close enough that you can put a lock between the 2 that way those dont come loose plus is a tiny bit of extra security for the motor.
Nice job! What do you think is the speed?
At first I was getting deja vu
I suggest you would want to adjust your transom inclination to make your tilt/trim adjustment work properly when running, incline the transom backward & adjust to proper transom height. Bow will be raised or lowered then at your preferrence.
Thanks but it works great as is
Tigbuan we r Very close , San jose Antique Panay..
Out on the water is so great!! I already miss the Philippines, and just been back in the US one day..... it's sooo cold here!!
It really is! Hello Jack! How are you and that nice wife of yours? Hopefully you will make it back soon. Good luck on all your processing - We wish you the best.
Hi... I'm Gord... from Minnesota... & Liloan Cebu... for what it's worth if you want to try an extension on your throttle handle there are some. It's one that detaches with an easy hand screw on.... for me makes riding much more comfortable.... anyhow
Hi Gord ! Thank you for that information. It works great as it is. There is some options but for now I like it as it is
I’m Looking forward to the skydiving vlog
You never know what is next on here
Always check the entire hull and outriggers after every high speed run. Those small fishing bangka's are not designed or built for that speed. Keep safe.
that Mel really made me laugh, its good y'all can joke around like this.
I like it looks like fun 😂
At least you and your wife have a very good sense of humor. Curious, does the boat come up to plane easily or do you think putting a dolphin fin on the outboard would help
It is not a planing hull therefore it will not plane. It is a displacement hull more of a canoe type. No need for dolphin fin. Now speaking of planing.... I am going to upgrade the outriggers from plain bamboo. There is several choices I'm pondering to use and one of those choices would be making small planing outriggers that would a lifting effect and lesson the drag at higher speeds. It's not really about hauling ass with that boat but more about reliability and fuel efficiency. The little diesels have that too but...... those motors are not made for salt water which eats away the cowlings and every other external part. They are hand rope pulled which is pretty much fail proof but pain in the ass at the same time. They have no neutral which means point start and go only. I want my old style and modern all in one for myself.
Nice convert sir
Thanks
I'm surprise you didn't made a boat using aluminum and make the boat in the bayo.
The "Lady Mel" boat
300 hp OXE diesel or Yanmar Diesel is the best if have
Got a GPS James? Wondering how fast she goes.....
You know what? you can buy a body mount for your camera ;) that'll give us a better view and you'll get free movements
Own it - just dont like using it
YOU DONT NEED THAT DRAINER BECAUSE IT MIGHT CAUSE YOUR BOAT TO SINK, SOMEBODY MAY ACCIDENTAL KICK THAT. I WAS THINKING TOO ABOUT TAKING OUTBOARD HOME TO DO THE SAME THING, GOOD IDEA.
Hi James we are in a similar situation going backwards and forwards, but for us its the Philippines to Australia, how do you get around looking after the house when you are away? As it is a problem that is hard to resolve when no family nearby.
We have family stay on the property
I go jigging in Parara Iloilo…near Namocon Tigbauan
Part of this video was in Parara. There is some paraw sailboats from Parara. If you know any of them there I am wanting to talk to them to check about having carved wood outrigger supports made for my boat like the sailboats have. Maybe we can meet you down there and we can visit.
@@TexasFilipino Yes, I saw in the video you passed by Seafdec. I live in Pavia Iloilo, only go there for jigging. You can go to talipapa after the bridge. There’s a way from the side of talipapa to the beach. You can ask the President of the fisher folks there. Her husband owned a sailboat.
Hi James,
Enjoying your videos
I'm overseeing my sister's house construction at San Joaquin, but I think there's lots we can learn from your experience
Is it ok to drop by your place one of these days???
yes it is fine
I wonder if there's a need for you to register that with the local Barangay or Marina or Coast Guard Detachment?
Hi James I think on your first time out the motor cut out a little. Did you solve that problem .
never acted up again. I think the fuel cap was not venting well. I loosened it up and then cleaned the cap and vent hole.
Sir ...how much that outboard engine 25hp? I will plan to put on my banka..but i had no idea where to buy and the price , old or used one maybe must cheaper?
At 6:48 that's not bolts that's screws man that will back up eventually
So for your correction as well those are called LAG BOLTS. Yes they screw in! When you live on a island in a province area where getting stuff is not so easy then you use what you have.
Mel ,, real men don't like SILICON :)
10:55
EXCELLENT i Now live in Talairan Leyte
I was born and raised in Houston Tx (56 yrs young)
I need a bost like this i.live in a fishing village ( no roads )
Woulf you be willing to assist me in building one
I woukd be able to go to your location.
I.have the pesos to complete the job
Or would you be willing to have your crew build 1 for me?
rob
25 horse power is not enough to your pumpboat, replace Yamaha 125 horse power must better and quicker.
LOL
Your outboard was brand-new or 2nd hand?
2nd hand
You should all be wearing life vests….
Repeat video...???
The very first thing on the screen on this video says "Updates and Melinda riding in the boat later in this video" This is a recap video with updates.
New subscriber sana balikan ako salamat po
You forgot to wear your life vests. Better invest in life preserversnor vests.
You can also tighten up the engine turning..just saying
Name it >My little boat
