Amazing!

Everyone makes fiberglass. What I really wanted to see is how they make the rubber tube, and the separation buffers.

@0:06 WW2 soldiers with kevlar

many many congratulations Alfred for such a great video and share to all of us. I do have two question though, if you would like to answer. a) the technician when closing the cone, as you said didn't like initially the way it was going and separated to replace it better. How was it was possible to seperate it? As far as i know, contact adhesives if pulled back, can't be just reused and the whole cleaning, priming and glue laying procedure needs to be done from the start. Is this a "luxury" that adding toluene in the glue give you or something else? b) as i saw in the video, the folded strips that were attached to the baffles' separators were glued when the initial piece was folded. On top of that, the technical pressed it to bond well. Based on these, how was it possible to cut them open to unfold, after being attached on the inner side of the tube? Thank you in advance.

Looks tough putting that tube on. I was hoping to remove from time to time but that's a 4 man job?

tres xxx you don't remove it until you need to replace it. And you don't need to remove it unless you've done serious damage to it.

I have seen better fiberglass work on septic tanks

will it puncture and sink? Im thinking safety when going salt water.

I had one of this mariner 4 its same

Scanner marine forever

"you cant run the boat without a center consol" that is not true

Why is the outer hull made of a rubber tube instead of solid fibreglass? What are the advantages? Cheers

I have a 12' Zodiac I transport in the back seat of my car and fish with on the weekends. I inflate it and can single handedly carry my Zo across the street to the water, no transom wheels, no dolly, no dragging. I'm not sure why your dingy is so heavy.

@@toivomyllyla8776 Thats not the correct comparison ;) But yes it think it's slightly lighter, but with the disadvantage that you loose space inside the boat. And you even can't use the space of the tube as storrage space. I think the main point is that it's unsinkable.

Doesn't seem like this would be more portable than a fiberglass boat so what's the benefit of having an inflatable?

Haven't heard of shark attacking Zodiacs. Leopard seals on the other hand like to nibble on the tube tips near the transom. No problem because there's 7 insolated chambers. Nails at piers cause damage more often.

Someone I would say the Hull is Foam Filled, The tubes are meant to provide stability, flotation is just a bonus

And why not use an assembly line, makes production less expensive
