You live in a hut with thatch roof (which I love), you walk around in mud barefoot (which I love) and you build 180 kph surfboard with polished chrome snorkel intake. That is badass!
+nitroman365...not with that pipe on it it's not. That ain't your daddys 1945 evinrude. That motor needs a tuned pipe on it to not only make horsepower, but also to run consistently.
Porkchop's Papi I felt like I was listening to one of those Sarah McLaughlin songs during the animal welfare commercials. I got teary eyed and broke out my checkbook but I can't figure out who to send it to.
Dude. It reminded me of "If God was one of us". The two stroke engine sounds actually made it suck less. If only I could put one of the boat propellers in my brain and run it, it might make the song tolerable.
I'm SO glad music was added to the video. It adds SO MUCH!!! Especially when the the sound of the engines drown it out. And on top of it all it's a ballad! Really great and appropriate for a video about fast long tail boats......
Curious, how this may affect/ effect boat design. It looked like there wasn't much if any current/ wave sway to the bottom/ hull of the board. BRILLIANT
Back in the 2000s used to travel with my parents in these on rivers in Laos/ Thailand. Super scary and loud but faster than trip by car or bus. Called Speedboats. Think they stopped now due to accidents. But what good memories. Any other tourists here ever traveled, spent hours down rivers, on them?
I like how he takes it out and aimed it like an arrow to go up the middle of the river. Would have liked to see the boat with the longer exhaust that he kept parking next to make a run also.
jeremy western You are somewhat right and somewhat wrong. That's in Thailand Southeast Asia and there's a population of about 20% Chinese that live in Thailand. Only difference between Thailand and China is that Thai People are dirtier and less slant eyed. Other than that they are still great at Math and whipping up some good Wong tong soup and Mongolian Beef.
Whoa!! these guys are adrenaline jukies! talk about extreme sports it's amazing what folks will come up with for the sake of having a good ole fast time!
How about adding a little bit of comfort, like a bucket seat? No fly by? All shots were boats taking off away from the camera. I would love to see one fly by at top speed. I'm guessing 65-75 mph top speed.
Maurice Cooper, Go to Thailand, custom made just like that for $2500, little more or less depending on your engine, don't know about the shipping. Also, you can rent one.
kawi 750 twin. 75hp I believe in its hottest OEM configuration. However they have removed any sort of tuned pipe so I'm assuming they have lost 20-30% off that horsepower. heads are stock. possibly reduced squish and or milled head. maybe some port work. overall this engine really isn't putting out much power at all. I'm guessing it's still less than the factory 75hp

That is badass!
Uncle Crusty ,sounds like paradise too me.
The polished chrome snorkel is not the intake. That is the exhaust.
Its like 200HP on a leaf.
WhiteCloudGroovin Haha
That tiny little engine doesn't have 200hp. Lucky if it even has 70 horses.
Novusod I don't think you know about a built 2 stroke engine. It's pushing at least 120.
+Novusod without the proper pipe...more like 35-40 horse.
+nitroman365...not with that pipe on it it's not. That ain't your daddys 1945 evinrude. That motor needs a tuned pipe on it to not only make horsepower, but also to run consistently.
I love the smell of a 2stroke motor in the morning.
Cancer?
Nope, pure memories
I have to ask why would you overlay the sound with a girl singing ?
Porkchop's Papi, Shit music at that.

Its to calm our rabid bitch soul, we need it..
This guy lived his life a 1/4 nautical mile at a time.
so this is where that "just 19 cents a day" is going
12345678910 12345
...While Americans spend a shit ton of money to move their fat-asses just as fast.
Don't hate.
Edward Bernard It was a joke, not a dick. Don't take it so hard.
"Don't take it so hard" hahaha! I like that. Good one.
12345678910 12345 just what I said lol
Horrible person you are to think they need your money.....
Now that is my kind of project right there.. Bad ass!!
I'm SO glad music was added to the video. It adds SO MUCH!!!
Especially when the the sound of the engines drown it out. And on top of it all it's a ballad! Really great and appropriate for a video about fast long tail boats......
This they watch a speed boat 🚤
I've always wanted 120 HP on a surf board.
nitroman365 dam you need to patten that. it would be an awesome invention to have a surf board with a small engine
francisco solorzano that exists already mate
nitroman365 I +
0
nitroman365
Neighbors love this.
You got to have some huge balls to run that rig! Like a V8 in a go-cart.
Much admiration, those guys build beautiful boats and are ballzy with courage
Im really more impressed with the boat build..you guys have any idea how strong a boat must be to endure those type of speeds?
when you absolutely, positively have to get to the rice paddy on time.

There appears to be a step in the hull, effectively making that surfboard a hydroplane. As if that thing needed help going faster....
For just 19 cents a day, you too can sponsor surfboard with a overkill engine
This is really amazing. Do what you have with your surrounding!
Hell yes ! Thank you for doing what you do.
That guy needs some ear protection ! That is soooo effin cool ! I want one !!!!!
This is really amazing. Do what you have with your environment!
Those are some sweet boats!
Holly poop batman, that thing was fast!!!! Drag racing anyone??
That must be a handful to keep straight. Guy has much balls as skill.
anyone died...who chose the music
These people have serious balls! Where are we at people? Vietnam, maybe the Philippines? I would love to be there live!
Amazing project...a bit noisy, but wow...got some speed there!!
I have a rotax 587 seado motor I want to build into a long tail what’s the best way to attach the drive shaft?
This is awesome! Must be one hell of a ride man
You see these in the James Bond movie, The Man With The Golden Gun.
Crazy boats driven by some crazy people.
No blowovers or blow ups. Great job guys!
Damn those things fly! Just one second from disaster, amazing skill!
That was incredible!!!
That takes "Rice burner" to a whole new level haha
I like how he takes it out and aimed it like an arrow to go up the middle of the river.

SO WHY IS MY CHICKEN CHOW MEIN DELIVERY ALWAYS LATE THEN???😠
jeremy western i hope you know they're not Chinese
+Allan Pedro they ARE chinese... They look just like the people who work in my local chinese/japanese restaurant

+Stroker Ace eh? I thought ting tongs were the same the world over?
How do you know? Why because slant eyes!?! This could be in laos,Cambodia, or Thailand
Where can i get a set or plans for the boat?
How does these motors cooling system work?
Some of these comments are too damn funny.... yes nothing but a popsicle stick with a motor ..got to love it!!!
Curious what engines these guys are running. They sound like two strokes. Are they just cannibalized outboard engines?
Kawi 750cc 2 cylinder 2 stroke from a jet ski.I have repaired s few and I know the engine color.
How does the cooling work? This is the Cambodian version of Fast-n-Furious.
2 stroke and the pipe is open like that? What about back pressure ( echo pressure is important for 2 stroke pipes).
This thing must take some sort of megasaurus size balls to ride lol
Why the pipe is open? 2 stroke runs on back pressure off the exhaust 😕
Whoa!! these guys are adrenaline jukies! talk about extreme sports it's amazing what folks will come up with for the sake of having a good ole fast time!
That looks fun as hell!!
omg!!!!! that's so wicked! that guy can drive it to!
Definitely in Thailand, looks like a drag boat, usually they do that on a river not in the open sea
How about adding a little bit of comfort, like a bucket seat? No fly by? All shots were boats taking off away from the camera. I would love to see one fly by at top speed. I'm guessing 65-75 mph top speed.
have they lifejacket?
Badass!!! Drag race surfboards, lol.
Damn wasn't expecting it to go that friggin fast!
That 1st one was seriously quick
How does he get water into the cooling system
what kaind of motor is this? please help trying to build a boat like this
Does anyone know where I can get plans to build just the boat?
I want one that looks like a thrill
Maurice Cooper, Go to Thailand, custom made just like that for $2500, little more or less depending on your engine, don't know about the shipping. Also, you can rent one.
Van Kham Wow that's a great deal
now ...we had safety suit and good helmet ....welcome to Thailand bro
Now Rotax Engine was Hit
What motor you boys got
The Man with the golden gun :)
sounds awsome I can just imagine the smell of klotz two stroke oil
Can't wait till Walmart sells these....
I've never been so irrationally incensed by an acoustic guitar.
The neighbors must love them. !!!
The music sounds sooo wrong, but awesome Boats xD
Those exposed props and health and safety???
No running water or indoor plumbing but they've got a bad ass way to go downriver 👍💥👍💥
Where do you put the luggage?
looks like kanchabiri (sp?) in Thailand. Tearing up the peace and quiet down on the river.
Really want to know the specs on the engines they're running
Awesome! I want one!
What are these boats called?
It's such a massive power to weight that it's amazing it goes anywhere.
Hollywood when will James be riding one of these?
Thats NUTS... Love it
where can I buy engine like that?
Good size balls.
Where do they get those engines from?

it's like a crotchrocket boat lols looks like a lot of fun wow
Theo Albert, I was thinking the same. 👍
kawi 750 twin. 75hp I believe in its hottest OEM configuration.

I'm guessing it's still less than the factory 75hp
That was pretty bad ass, wonder what top speed in that quick beast is
that's awesome! top speed?
That is awesome!
They must run a electric water pump then? Jet ski cools engine on water jet pressure, would like to see it up close.
What JetSki engine ?
What a nice machine gun exhaust
Wasn't expecting that!
MM420 Bess!
what screw ? a link to it please give
Is that a Kawi 750? 800?
wooowww.....kerennn.....hmmm.....👍👍👏👏👏👏
I love the open carbs lol
That's damn fast.
That looks fun
If the dude falls off the surf board he would get instantly eaten by piranhas.
That 2T sounds healthy as fuck.
Love the starter motor @ 1:23 ;)
That. Is. Awesome.
Ok so I got these left over chop sticks...this old t shirt some paste glue made from starch..whattaya do.....what do you do....
What the fuck is with the music?
Ronnie Godfrey its to lessen the burnden of engine sound maybe,lol.
21 guns by Green Day. No idea who's singing it though
Just saw those in a james bond movie “die another day” looks like a lot of fun
