    Having the vision to turn some old hull into something new and cool is a gift - then actually seeing it through is awesome!!!

      Right on Howie! And haha, it definitely is like a micro panga and I heavily considered going that route( high sides) , “big “ bow . Hmmm, now I’m brainstorming… 😅. Cheers in your build, be sure to share!

    • @diywaterworld
      @diywaterworld  2 года назад

      Thanks Jonathan, you sure hit the nail on the head ! It’s been a really late summer around here and damn hot! Yes, I pushed it a little too much that day of grinding with the suit on in the sun. Actually, I don’t think I can recall a day I was ever that much overheated. I sat down in front of a big industrial fan for over an hr after just to bring down my core temp. 😬. Lesson learned for nextt time! Cheers buddy!

    @Boris_printmaker 2 года назад +1

    1:30 wish I was there in order to steal the side-cut-offs from ya and build a whole another small watercraft out of those hard-chine lovely skirts; too late for the panga-build leftovers, but please create another narrow hull from these cutaways :)

    • @diywaterworld
      @diywaterworld  2 года назад

      I like the way you think Boris! Maybe in a future build I’ll do a 2 boat build out of one boat?! 😎👊🏼. And agreed , the panga sides were especially perfect , I wanted to keep them for that purpose but at that time I didn’t really have room for all my projects so I cut them up and tossed them :/ thanks for the suggestion/insight! Cheers!

    Whats the story on that sailboat in the background? Interesting hard dodger and what looks like a huge cockpit.

    • @diywaterworld
      @diywaterworld  2 года назад +1

      Hi Ted, I’m hoping to do a full vid on the sailboat soon. Until then , here’s a couple details ! The boat is owned by a friend and ironically named “Waterworld “ It’s a Trans Pacific winner from years ago, close to 80’ length , carbon fiber one piece infusion built hull, at the time is was one of the fastest mono hulls in the world. It’s previous name was “Pegasus”. The owner is quite the creative visionary and has built a beautiful house on it, installed twin Yanmar diesels , a shallow draft winged keel, and has essentially created the ultimate Bahamas island hopping exploration vessel. Super fast/fuel efficient and VERY practical. The craftsmanship snd thought behind the build are top notch! I look forward to sharing the build in the future! Cheers!

      Hi Jim, I am SO on the same page buddy! I’ve been on the lookout for a fixer upper / crashed jet ski to use as a donor. I have a super special idea for the build too! Hopefully this winter when boating is less popular I can scoop something up! Thanks for the suggestion! Cheers!

    Ive got a 64 glasspar avalon 16,ive been thinking of doing the same,but im not looking to hit 50mph.just a cool lil solo skiff build with inboard motor.
    Looking foward to seing this one finished.

    • @diywaterworld
      @diywaterworld  2 года назад

      Right on Nick! Sounds like a sweet project. Yeah, I’m not sure where the 50mph thing came from , I’m not a speed nut, and definitely gravitate towards solid functionality. But with this one I figured why not set up a good challenge. High speed skiff with low Hp outboard 😬. Let’s see how it turns out! Cheers and good luck on your build! When you get started be sure to share with us on the FB page! Cheers!

    String up some shade and get a box fan. I worked 2-summers in a Memphis boatyard, my boss watched me do that, held his tongue and noticed I was out there all day with fewer breaks than the other guy. He pulled me aside and said he was about to chew me out for goofing off until he realized I was looking at being productive. That job sucked but my boss was great.

    I’ve gotta know. How much trouble does FWC or DNR give you about hull numbers when you modify a boat so heavily like this?

    • @diywaterworld
      @diywaterworld  2 года назад +2

      Now you know why I want to go 50mph! 😎🤣🤣. In all seriousness, I don’t have any issues, I know the state laws well regarding boat titling / homemade/ rebuilds/etc. some of my builds qualify as homemade and some ( like this one) will remain being titled as the original Glastron CVX 16. :) I’ve had quite a few questions about registering these types of builds and I have heavily considered making a video on it. Cheers Tony !

      @diywaterworld  2 года назад +1

      Hi Sam, thanks so much! And HECK YES!!!! I know this build well and applaud you for wanting to do one! I’ve done 2 actually, the first was a little over 20 years ago. It was an 18’ Hobie with a 20 Hp motor. And it was was a ripper! I would take it out of Blackpoint Marina down in miami and head out to the reefs to spearfish. Incredible ride quality and fuel economy. Fast too! Overall , a super fun and kickass ride! I think you should 10000% build one! Cheers!

      Great point! And in hindsight I probably should have added/ let everyone know I held my breath while blowing the boat off and didn’t take a breath until I was upwind and clear of the dust. Im writing this thinking this all probably sounds bogus , but it’s actually one of the ways I practice breath holds for Freediving 😎🙈 Constantly doing short breath holds while working. ( NOT OSHA APPROVED ) 😂. Cheers and thanks for pointing it out!

    Hyperthermia is like the opposite of hypothermia…if you’re active and hydrating, but wind up with the chills, you need to eat something. Perhaps a candy bar or power bar. Filling up on water and Gatorade makes you feel full, but you’re burning up all those calories without meaningfully replacing them.

    Love your content brother, but you worried me. In my line of work I've seen dehydration a bunch of times, and chills is a really bad sign. It's definitely good to take breaks and hydrate, but you've gotta keep electrolytes up when you're sweating that much, or you won't retain it very well. Sodium chloride tablets are your friend. Sincerely, another heavy sweater.

      Thanks for the sub Jason! While I can see where you are coming from , the reality is there was a lot that happened in that video … taking a full boat, cutting the cap and deck out, transporting, cutting the sides off, cutting out all the rotted transom and wood from inside, grinding , grinding and more grinding, now is the fun and “easy “ part… installing new structure. I hope you follow the next part, it’s unique to say the least! Cheers!
