A brand new giveaway starts today! This time, I am giving away a brand new Macfly paramotor powered by a Moster 185. We also just came out with three new designs and two new hats at Risky Biscuits Co. Every $5 spent on the webstore gets you one entry to win! - tuckergott.com/collections/new-arrivals
That was Ca*RAZZY Dude
Woooooohooooo!
That was nice, a bit unbalanced, but you both did it. I wonder how" big bertha" and a big wing would act on water must be a more stable "boat", Maybe it would be the first Hydro Paramotor. Only take-off with the Wing staying dry would need paved pier......👍😊🇫🇷
Tuck...
That was fantastically insane...
theres a bunch of makers that use composites for things like boats, I wonder what a more custom designed "kayak" would do on the water, and how fast it would go, also you could add a couple pontoons for stability
Use your normal setup on a kayak, like a seaplane :D
No big Bertha just the Motor and wing
Lets make it a petition
He can go fly fishing!
Call it a skyack
Too funny : )@@justinill2705
I love that this motor seems to be useful for everything except its intended purpose.
Put it in your bedroom in the corner with the exhaust pointing outside and you have a steampunk fan lol
It gets up in the air too! Just loud af lol
@Wolvmarine yes, and he was going to give it away to someone until he did so and realized it wasn’t safe and he didn’t feel comfortable giving it away and getting someone killed. Yes, hypothetically it CAN fly, but it’s safer for everyone to make these kayak and mountain bike videos.
Add some outrigger floats to stabilize it .
@@shannonwhitaker9630 arent you just reinventing florida swamp fan boats with cheaper shit?
The hull design on that kayak is the limiting factor. You’d have to absorb a big learning curve but a whitewater style has planing bottom, and a sea kayak will have other advantages and drawbacks. The little lake tugboat is not the best option imo. Still, it shows it works!
"you'd have to absorb a big learning curve" lol yeah sure bud. i think we all got it, big brain XD
@@daniell1869 it would take quite a commitment to learn how to rodeo a whitewater kayak. They are specific about angles and weight shifts. I’m not a big fan of them or especially good at it. The roll and braces would have to be learned, it’s probably too big of a learning curve for his level of water sports interest… does that sound less pretentious?
Yeah he needs something small that has a hull that can get up on plane and is more stable than a kayak.
Ratchets straps were the reason.
Try it on a small version of an Australian dinghy boat
You found the smallest kayak in the world.
Do it on a planing hull! A SUP or big windsurfer board with a seat and foot straps etc attached. That thing will absolutely rocket!
+1 for stand up paddle board. Might get 30-35mph out of it. Of course catching the nose in the side of a wake at 30mph could be sketchy. Probably best ridden by someone who can surf that is willing to stand on it. Would maximize the chance of the motor coming home dry.
@@kleinbottled79 Doubt it. Will suck to the water.
v-shaped straight bottom with sharp end would plane. Round and curvy bottoms will suck themselves into water. It can be seen how they rise water from sides.
A flat bottom can plane but not as well as V-shaped. Flat can be unstable
Or some hydrofoils
Well, you've done it on land, in the air, and now the water (sea-ish). I guess that makes you an Ali Express SEAL. You already have the hair. 😁
one place left to go ... outer space 🚀

@@bren42069 gotta go underwater too!
Now snow lol
This is a great video for those who do not understand hull speed and a displacement hull. It was never really able to plain, which limited how fast it would go. Hull speed on that length boat is probably around 5 to 6 mph. You stretched that about as much as you could. You had ample power to go significantly faster, but the bow wave prevented it. Great demonstration of science.
Just add hydrofoils!! :D
@@aTuWittythis is what I wondered...would a fin or fins in the water stabilize this setup?
Not bad for a small "play boat." These short, low volume boats are designed to play in rapids, to turn on a dime and be able to handle large waves with a very short frequency like you see on big white water rapids. They're designed for maneuverability not speed. A general rule for boat hulls is that the longer the water line, the faster it will go. Put that fan on a 16' sea kayak with larger volume and greater buoyancy and a slightly wider beam for better stability and you'd be on to something. Also, water is 75% more dense than air so unless you're putting a jet or rocket on there, you're not going to hit 50 MPH.
A couple small outriggers wouldn't hurt either.
Freshwater is about 1000x more dense than air.
This video is both awesome on its own, but is a great example for anyone learning about the performance of various hull shapes. That "sinking in the back" problem is something called "hull speed" which is basically the speed at which any given hull creates a bow wave that's exactly the same length as the hull. It means the hull is always trying to climb up out of a hole of its own making. Once you hit hull speed the amount of energy required to increase speed spikes exponentially. As other commenters have pointed out certain hull types (like those that can get up on a plane) work around the issue a bit, but it's amazing to watch it in action so clearly. Thanks!
Nice! What I'd like to see is if y'all could strap a wing to it and get it flying. 👍
OMG! Yes!
Put a hydrofoil on it then he would have a wing flying in the water.
I thought the same thing. It would definitely have to go a lot faster to keep a wing overhead, much less, take off. Maybe with a flat bottom jon boat and a full sized paramotor?
@@TuckerGotttrike conversion time?
i like this idea bro i wana see how it works maybe even two@@TuckerGott
You definitely need to try this on a 10 or 12 ft sit in or fishing kayak with the seat
exactly what I was thinking
plus then you would not have to worry about the stability as much
Wow! A single seat airboat! Very cool! Thanks for sharing this! :)
I have a couple of 15' sit on top Ocean Kayaks that would work great on! They are really stable, have a nice flat recessed area behind the seat for an ice chest that would probably mount in. The length would probably help prevent so much wheelie action.
Totally agree, that kayak is too short and your 15 footers would be perfect.
You have had so much fun from this motor, no matter how much you pick faults with it, it keeps on giving lots of fun at low cost.
Your thrust line is off angled for the position of the paramotor. You can see as you hit the power, it wants to push the rear of the boat down into the water. Try putting the paramotor on a 10-15 degree upward thrust line (point the travel direction of the paramotor upwards). This should help put the boat on plane and give you more speed.
Tucker, I’m 42. I am beyond impressed with your articulable knowledge and the fact you have been this way ever since you started producing this content years ago. Stay safe young man, and never stop the adventures brother
He's got a gf, bro. I don't think he's like that.
I have a odd feeling Tucker mighta just invented a new Sport. 😂😂😂
I think you should watch again
@@djb5320i think you should reconsider, this is awesome
I love that you are all about adventure, fun, and most importantly safety!
Awesome!! All you need is some kayak outriggers and a rudder! Well, just the outriggers will do wonders for you.. Great job!
50 miles per is insane on bike
Pretty much like a suron e bike, if you upgrade the bike it can reach speeds of 70mph
This was hilarious. Very creative video man, this has to be a world first.
1990 I built such a prop for my paraglider. Nice recollection! Thank you!
That looks like so much fun. Keep up the great videos and have a blast
I love how sketchy it is but also how fun it looks. Not a boating expert but I feel like your boat needs to be flat bottomed and long enough so that the engine can sit somewhere near the middle. But the important thing is Ali Express must be so proud of you lmao
now on a paddle board
canoe
You can get these small flotation tubes that are mounted on a frame that fastens to the kayak and they will be about 2 or 3 feet off each side of the kayak and they act somewhat like training wheels cause they keep you from turning over
I have no idea what they are called but I can see that they are a must have in this situation
They will take away all the worry and you can actually enjoy the ride while going faster
Love all your videos. Very entertaining. This one made me nervous. The instability was not worth the risk in my opinion. We don't want to lose you Tucker!
As kids, my cousin and I put a 5 hp outboard on a canoe. We actually had to use big pieces of metal in the front of the canoe to balance out the weight. That thing flew across the water, this reminds me of those good times. 👍
I put a 24 pound thrust trolling motor on the back of a flat bottom aluminum canoe and I just mounted it about a foot from the very back and the battery out of my truck to run it and I was amazed at how much speed it had.
I had two other friends in a Colman canoe and if they both paddled as fast as they could they still could go not even close to the speed I was going so I bet you were rolling across the water with the 5h/p motor
I’d say 25 mph or faster
@user-yn1kx2mn9i 2 30lb motors got my canoe to almost 6mph, 1 30lb 4mph. Definitely wasn't planing. Skinny super light 14ft jonboat 14mph(planing perfectly) with a Yamaha 5hp that is couple more hp than that. It takes power to go fast on water
I had an"American Fiberlite" canoe back in the 70's we tied it on behind a jet-boat on Lake Cumberland in Kentucky and 10 feet became fiber-splat at about 60 knots !!! That was one of my worst days on the water !
I think sticking a 2x4 under the front of the motor base to tip it back some would help. It's really stuffing the kayak down into the water at that angle. A bigger canoe or a sea kayak would be neat to see too!
That is the funniest video I've seen you do yet! That worked incredibly well!
After seeing the SS Ali express kayak, I had an “Emotion”!😊 The motor matched the kayak. What more could one want??👌✌🏻👌
Another GREAT vid!!!!!!
I think the drag was from the ratchet straps going under the kayak, you'd have to try to smoothen the bottom by tying it down from the top of the kayak, and it probably wouldn't sink as much, aside from the fact that you're also heavy in the rear.
Yeah, I'd bet lunch its the straps dragging like crazy.
Thought Dan was going in the drink for sure!😂😂😂 Glad he was able to recover. I feel like with more power and a different vessel you may be onto some wacky new sport though.
That'd probably be fun in the Everglades or the swampy areas of Louisiana where it all spreads out around the Mississippi Delta.
As a Swiss, to me the most astonishing thing is, that you can just "do this". Here you would need 18 licenses and letters from the local gvmt only to be stopped by a mob of farmers at the end. Mind blowing.
Most states don't require a boat license, some do. Although many states require powered boats be registered and this would most likely count. It's basically just a tax to use the waterways
I could see a cool ground effect vehicle come from this.
"Florida Man" has some competition. Awesome!
Pft, they INVENTED this type of boat. Look up airboats man.
Next challenge? Pull a water skier with it!! 😂😂😂
Or just be a water skier wearing it.
Tucker, my great respect for your creativity. love your channel.
I would love to try it on a windsurfing surfboard. The motor should be strong enough and those boards are meant for planning.
So cool would love to see some more dumb things with the SSAliExpress
I’d like to see more camping videos. Those where fun
agreed!
As an avid ocean kayak guy, and custom sail-yak, I wholeheartedly approve of this. Just make sure you've got tags on your yak, otherwise fish and game will try to get you for "having a motorboat without proper tags and registration". Of course they gotta catch you first, and if you don't stop they can't catch you lol
It's been a looong time since I watched your videos, I just couldn't get used to that old haircut. I now see you have a new haircut! AWESOME! I can watch your videos again!
2 outriggers, and you will never dunk the motor
Was just typing that when I saw your post....great minds....
Dude, i believe you just created a whole new sport, mini air boating!
You need a gyro, outriggers or a heavy keel on that thing. The torque and rotational velocity of the props are twisting the boat
Two windsurfing boards with an arch between them for a seat and the motor, like a catamaran. Rudder pedals for steering.
Awesome effort. Might be better with some trimming mass in the bow or less mass in the rear. Alternatively a boat with a planning hull and bigger waterline area.
Back in the 1960’s there was a show called Flipper on TV. Fan driven boats were featured often, used to navigate the shallow Everglades. I think they were called air boats.
Still very popular in the Everglades
Would love to try this in my bigger 16ft canoe where you can kneel and get up a bit higher in a boat that sits higher in the water. Fun concept!
You can hear hear the fear and hate for the water. Best video yet.
Tucker is basically the AliExpress paramotor SEAL operator.
I found your channel 7 years ago, and now you have your own merch!
That’s character development for you lol
I felt that almost capsizing at 7:30 LMAO I was rolling in my office chair!
Next evolution is a longer boat. Speed of “displacement” hulls like kayaks is limited by length. Longer the water line, the faster the speed. Cool vid.
Only the Lifetime Wave children’s kayak would have been a worse choice to try this. So many decent options available with just a little R&D. Still a fun watch. Thanks!
I've been kayaking for a while but have been longing to fly since I was a kid. I have been looking at regular ultralights but the paramotor is very appealing as well. I have jumped out of a plane with a parachute and I totally loved it. Any suggestions for making a decision between an ultralight and a paramotor?
that actually looks fun. I would try it
That thing kicks. I have a trolling motor on my yak. Turns out there is all kinds of rocks and logs that my motor seems to have a almost magical way of finding. Not a problem for your little micro airboat. Don't show that to the Warden. Its considered to be a motorized watercraft. Needs tags.
You need a bigger kayak. It would make it a lot more stable! Great video! Love the content!
Good fun, great effort. Displacement boat hulls speed is proportional to the wave length of the hull bow wave to stern wave,
The longer the hull the faster the speed. On fishing boats you can put in 4 times the power to get a third extra speed, or add a third to you hull length use less fuel and have more workspace. Or as you mentioned flat hull to get up on the plane.
Regardless you did it, congratulations 🍺😎👍
The back end sinks because it's not a planing hull. It's a displacement hull. The more power you put into it, the more water you have to push out of the way.
Perhaps work out how to fix a outrigger for stabilization? Love this crazy❤
U should use those balance floats on both sides of the kayak for more stability
I have a Lifetime Yukon Angler 116, I bet that would work better on it. It's very stable and goes really easy on the water.
They have these things called airboats down here in Florida, that actually use old aircraft engines. Next time you're down here you should check them out!
I'm a yakker and that is spectacular,love it. Def made me laugh.
Also looked like the thrust angle was pushing the rear of the kayak down preventing it to plane. The 2ed drive when he leaned Forward it picked up more over the plaining wake
Pivoting hydrofoil blades that rotate down the faster you go. They have struts that lock vertical at max speed. The foils maintain a parallelogram profile flat to the water at all times.
If this was on a kyak like a hobie lynx, or there’s a pontoon like kayak bass boat that’s designed to plane out it would be pretty cool on
It went faster than you could paddle it, it didn't capsize, and the fact you had to fasten the motor to the kayak rather than yourself likely made operating it safer in case it did go over. So it seemed like a win for what it is.
Flying man is afraid of water! Too funny! I love your videos. I think this will be a lot safer than the bike trick! You should evaluate which one you think is safer, flying that motor, running it on a bike or "speed" boating.
Awesome! Just bought my "Cactus Slalom Hoodie" and fingers crossed I WIN! WOT WOT!!! Great video! Keep up the good work!
Great video Tucker!
I've always wanted to try uphill skiing with a paramotor.
Try an Aqua Glide Chelan rigid inflatable kayak. It has a rear fin for stability and the 15 foot open cockpit and wide beam should be a better fit for an airboat.
Add a set of steerable articulating outriggers for lateral stability and you’ll be in business! If you had a wakeboard strapped to your feet I feel like there’s some crazy new sport here. Like powered kite boarding or something to that effect. If you can figure out how to water takeoff, fly from one body of water to another and land back in the water you’ll be an absolute legend!🎉
Love that Get Busy Living design, gonna order a hoodie.
get some pontoons that extend from the sides of the boat to balance it and have the motor mounted higher up
06:01 Tucker looking as happy as he can in water lol
You need a longer kayak with a bit of a keel and a steering rudder on the rear end.
Should work fine!
Love to try it on my Aluminum Boat, light boat.
That was fun to watch. +1 to all who suggested a planing hull. SUP, windsurfer, or surf board for sure would move out. Even a canoe would likely do ok as it’s long.
Or even a bigger kayak that isn't made for rapids. Get one that is made for the ocean.
This would be a great way to get around the quiet backwaters and harbours! it would really go well with the waterfront property owners and the quiet lovers! The biggest problem with trying to achieve speed on something like a kayak or canoe is the curved chine! The faster you go the deeper they run and the more drag is added, this is easily demonstrated by hanging a spoon under a tap the flowing water causes the concave surface to push the spoon away when convex attracts its similar to think of the top of an aero foil goes up as a kayak does the opposite at speed
Looks like fun but most kayaks are displacement hulls, not planing hulls so it limits speed. Try it on a micro skiff for less plowing, better stability, more hydroplaning and can still be paddled too!
"I don't even own a swim suit" cracked me up!
That was frickin' amazing. Your own miniature swampboat. Maybe an aluminum flat bottom fishing boat (much like a swamboat would have) would be more stable and safer. But it wouldn't be as awesome. The matching red made it look.......almost factory-installed. Big thumbs up to you and your more reckless friend, taking to the max!
And there I thought the bicycle was awesome. This totally tops that.
Kayak with rudder would help. Awesome video!!!
I love your videos, thank you for sharing
Non-planing hull. It's like trying to get a tugboat to get on plane. You need a planing hull if you want to get over and on top of that bow wake. (aka go fast)
Broooo I haven’t watched in a while… but I love this concept!! 🎉 Keep grinding!!
Hell yeah brother ! 😂now call up ole cleeter and head to Florida!
You know tucker I was just wondering how well a paramotor would do with a Jon boat mini if it could push it on land or not, and if it could be converted. Also have you seen the temu canoe pontoons
Would be interesting to see this on a flat bottom boat..bet. any idea how fast it propelled the kayak?
the reason it digs down the rear end is because a kayak is a diplacement hull, its ment to move water aside, to reach its displacement speed without much force, but then it hits a wall in speed, if it would be a planing hull, im not sure you would have enough power, but it wouldnt dig as much in the back
It looks like you need to adjust the angle between the prop and the boat.
How do you feel about sitting more forward Where You Are
?
Nice little cumulus clouds in the background - you could have been thermalling up to cloud base . Too bad you couldn’t get the kayak up to 50 mph !!
The Cajun Navy is really upping the ante on their pond-skipper tech!
Coming up next: The Cajun Navy pencils in future experiments with turbo-fan pond-skippers!
YES! phase 1 of skyaking with motor accomplished, now add the wing?
