Jason, be careful with that Thixo. That stuff is a gateway epoxy! That’s how they get you. They tell you it’s a cool glue for a Midwest boat. Next thing you know, your building a river table.😂
RUclips is a delightful mystery to me. Who knows how I found you; and you have never let me down. I watched you build 2 boats, a tree house, and part of an Airstream. I will never, ever make those builds, but I learned stuff I apply to my art that fascinates me! Art, craft, entertainment, perfection...thanks
I was wondering if he was going to try and build some sort of storage into the front. I agree, would have been a great idea. Although I do like the stability the foam provides.
It's a testament to your video & story skills that you're able to keep me (and others) fully engaged for over 30 minutes. I just keep wanting to see what happens next. I think you have more of a plan than you suggest in the video, but that idea of teetering on the edge of failure and success is the best part.
As a new woodworker who really doesn't know what they are doing, I really appreciate the lessons you teach throughout your builds. Things like, *use lots of glue* and, if you don't know what you're doing just make it up as you go along. Much appreciated. Have fun on the water!
Well, looking at the boat, he has made a beautiful *stern* for it. The tip of his triangle will catch just a bit of water to one side or the other, then spin the thing 180. But I think that's OK. A semi circular bow is not all that bad, and the triangle shape is more hydrodynamic than a circle. Just thinking outside the stock tank.
The cool thing about stock tank floating is that if you already have a stock tank and a picnic table, it costs nothing and in two minutes you're floating. Then, you're all in a circle, facing each other so it's a social event. I think those Midwesterners may have styled you, Jason.
I almost feel like the odd shape is going to make the boat want to go backwards...without some kind of horizontal stabilization to the rear I feel like the boat will 'want' to turn around so the round part is facing the front and you're making a rough teardrop shape as you move through the water and your bow will actually be your rear. That's almost 100% how it would work in air, I'm not sure about water though. I could be wrong that's just the feeling I get. EDIT: To better explain what I mean, picture the boat from the top down. If you're in moving water or moving through water and the bow is anything other than dead on, the water is going to be pushing the bow to whichever side it's off to. But there's nothing on the back of the boat or anywhere else to correct that push, so it's just going to keep pushing until it rotates around. Once it's flipped around though, the water moving around the boat towards the back is going to keep it traveling in a roughly straight line, because for the same reasons it's going to push it back to being centered. This is how a tail on an airplane keeps it steady. I can draw a picture if it would help, I know words aren't the best for this
@@houseofknox8066 I think a keel kind of makes it hard to float down the river though. Maybe a foot or two if it's enough? I think just a longish rudder piece cantilevered off the back might be enough for gently floating down the river though, and doesn't require major hull changes.
You're right. The basic issue is that the center of pressure is going to be in front of the center of mass, so the moment there's a little bit of sideways force it's going to create a moment that spins it around.
Jason said in the intro that he intends to put a motor on this boat. Will that be able to offset the tendency to rotate? Just wondering; I'm no engineer.
@@edrupp2318 to some degree yes. Depends on weight/size. Without a proper rudder or something though I think he'll basically have to permanently "trim" it like an aircraft to keep it facing forward. I admit I mostly didn't have the volume up so I might've missed some details.
I think your "bow" is going to be the "stern". A teardrop shape hydrodynamically moves with the round end to the "front" and the pointy end to the back.
That difficult thing you are referring to as the nose, is actually called the stem, as in from stem to stern, front to back. It is actually one of the most difficult parts of a boat to build. I never built one because I am a hack carpenter who just happened to work for a first-class boat builder. Looking good till you hit the rapids ;)
Ha, that image is from Nebraska where I used to live. The guy is the local Game and Parks spokesman. He's on TV and Radio promoting the great outdoors of Nebraska every week.
I always use rivets to wood/metal joining, with a washer inside tho... Btw that hollow front could remain hollow with a trap door to keep boaty things inside
I don't know if I'm the only one, but sometimes I am so entertained, that i forget to hit the like button. That just gives me an opportunity to watch again! Love your stuff man.
For the record, I almost skipped this video because "meh, boats.." But then I thought, "Yeah, but this is Bourbon Moth. This is going to be inspiring on some level, regardless of it being a boat." Thanks, me! I was right! 31:04 What it definitely should do is prevent the whole nose from filling with water if you do spring a leak there!
I'm guessing people in feeding troughs didn't mind spinning around as they went down stream but you have a bough... a bow ? thinking for a minimum your'e gonna need a rudder to help keep you facing forwards because the bow... bough can easily be pushed off centre and then catch more water on one side.
You should have added a great big huge water tank at the front. that way you could remove and add water as ballast to get it perfect and then throw some gel in there to make it all gelatin so it doesn't slosh around.
I think you are one of the best craftsmen out there. You approach your projects with intelligence, precision, and skill. Despite 40 years of working with wood I've learned a lot from watching your videos. Having said that I can't understand why you take on the occasional projects that have no relationship to your viewers life needs. For example: a shuffleboard for a man cave, a boat made from a cattle trough, a whisky cabinet (how many of us leave enough whiskey around to require a cabinet). Sorry for the rant. I know you need to keep generating interest but surely there are project that are more relevant to your viewers needs. Just cause you can doesn't mean you should. Thanks.
As someone who has used that flotation foam before (on not a boat, but still...) I went "ohhh shiiit" when you brought it out and I *totally* get your excitement to use it. Heck yeah!
I might be alone in this but I think a silly boat building collab with Xyla Foxlin would be amazing and your wildly different humors would clash perfectly 😅
I worked at a store that sold these. One day a lady came in to buy one because she wanted to use it as a pool for her kids. I was thinking it would be more like a boiling pot for them. I suggested she get some pond liner for it because they can get hot sitting out in the sun, but she declined. A week later she came back to get pond liner.
That’s my experience as a former car salesman too. People don’t want to listen to your advice because you’re a salesman and obviously you’re trying to scam them. Later they realise you were providing them the benefit of your years of experience but their ego won’t let them accept that salespeople are nice people too.
To be fair, once it's filled up with water it would take quite a bit of sun to get that whole mass heated up, it would be a little bit like how you can hold a flame against a balloon if it's filled with water. So if it's put in the shade it really shouldn't get that hot. Until it does, and you end up making grandkid soup
@@stevenfarrington2361 The problem isn't nice salespeople with years of experience or no experience but ready to help, but the ones who are there to dupe customers to make a comission. Plus present work incentives and environment are more geared towards making a quick buck.

put a water tank in the front of the boat. need ballast, just fill it with water.. want to remove it.. have a waterproof plug on the side of your boat to take out to drain the ballast tank.
Hey ive had an idea i never got to try. Was thinking of taking a home built water craft cutting it in half (front and back) then use a rubber seal and door hinges so you could put it back together when your done transporting it
Best mid-episode advertisement ever. I was fast-forwarding through, saw what you were doing, laughed harder than expected, and backed up to watch the whole thing. Funny stuff, brother... funny stuff.
That foam looks like polyurethane foam. My dad owned a factory back in the day and they used to make polyurethane mirror frames. You had a machine that would mix the two parts together and you would pour it into the mold put a waxed plywood board on top and then put it in a hydraulic press. Definitely wouldn’t be what we consider safe, but it was fun for me as a child as I ran around that factory.
Oh I cant wait to see this finished.... Please show us the video of the launch, and your first excursion... So looking forward to this. I am assuming you will only be having some electric motor on it.
The most impressive part of this video (to me) is your accuracy with that 16g brad nailer.. I would have busted through that 1/2 inch ply at least 23 times.
Also it looks more like a classic wood lake boat meets midwestern hillbilly diy. Chris-craft themed water tank boat. Mohagany finished boat. Ridge line stop the front is more boat like and drains water off of it. Question. Did you really need to clad the skeleton. Then why not make a frunk near the tank.
This one is pretty crazy. Good thing you've built a couple practice boats before tackling this one! The thing that keeps popping in my head is how much weight you've added to the boat. I think part of the mid west appeal for the stock tank is how easy and low key it is to throw some stuff in the back of a truck, off load it into the water and go ! I can't wait to see the stock boat when completed!
I donno what this video did to my brain, but I liked it so much I tried to click somewhere in the top left corner, expecting to fine "File Save" for some reason... That would be a good feature for YouTub to have lol.
Looks like a sailboat designed to the IOR rule. Not all that fast and very challenging to sail down wind. There is only one other word that comes to mind, the old salts know this, “Blooper”
I have no idea how I stumbled on your channel. I’m even more embarrassed that it took watching 4 of your videos to realize why you looked so familiar. I grew up in a very small town with you. Im happy for you brother
At least one of those pics is not from the Midwest. No way we'd have those heavy coats on when the water is still flowing. That's ice fishing attire there.
also, please tell your wife that I so much want her to restart her shop.... my wife LOVE her napkins and tea towels.... it was her most loved Santa stocking stuffer
They're awesome boats. I've learned about them in some game when I was a kid. Later, when I studied history, oh my Dawkins! They're very special! @@Studiodorg
Very, very old, too. I read about them in a mystery novel ages ago & was curious. Looked them up & learned they were later also called "cockleshells" because of their round shape & small size, a derivative of their Gaelic(?) name, depending on the region. @@eldinsmajlovic1554
Around 5:50, Longitudinal structure is not a frame, frame is Transversal structure, The top one is more like a sheer strake, at the bottom one will be more a bilge strake. Just saying, if you wanna know the good terminology. Anyway, good fun and wood working knowledge watching you. Thanks.
One suggestion… add a strip of 1/2 to the vertical spines to flush out with the upper and lower ribs. This way you have more strength in the frame. Think strip wood canoes. Interesting boat. Maybe an oblong tank for your next build?😮
Stupid cocaine-bear damn near scared me half to death.💀Anywho, this is my kind of build! Some duct tape, bubble gum, a few paperclips, and seat-of-the-pants plans 👍
Not sure I can fit any other videos in my day 😃 didn't see these in your name dropping but I take it you've heard of James at Wood by Wright and also Rex Kreuger?
some sort of water bag or jug in the front of the "boat" would have given you a way to adjust the balance of the "boat" by adding or substracting water as the ballast !
Jason, be careful with that Thixo. That stuff is a gateway epoxy! That’s how they get you. They tell you it’s a cool glue for a Midwest boat. Next thing you know, your building a river table.😂

It would have been really cool to integrate one or two coolers in the bow. We all know coolers are essential when it comes to trough boats
With the foam they would have been insulated too.
I was wondering if he was going to try and build some sort of storage into the front. I agree, would have been a great idea. Although I do like the stability the foam provides.
Must have somewhere to put the beer, or bourbon. Don't forget a tackle box.
'take disappointment and make it cool' is my new motto
A roll of metal with a giant key, as if you've peeled the top open, would finish that off nicely!

Now for your next build you should build a boat out of an airstream. Yunno, to make it a trilogy of sorts.
Man you should build a strip plank kayak, with your skills it would be an art piece
Or a timber skiboat

It reminds me of a giant ouija planchette. Be careful of haunted bodies of water - could get weird. Cool build though. It was fun to watch.
Random thought, did you consider using any Thixo on this build?
Cant wiat for part 2. Love the build sofar.
Always impressed with your unique and fun boat building projects. Can't wait to see this baby finished!
