Truekit Discovery 400 setup and test with Tohatsu 20hp

‪@TRUEKITINFLATABLES‬ 400 discovery setup and test, paired with a 20HP tohatsu 4 stroke. Having some fun on Lake Bolac in western districts of Victoria, whilst camping in my DIY offroad caravan.

    The casters on wood block is a great idea! I'm gonna copy that!

    Sometimes the simplest thing is the best. I had grand plans of making elaborate trolleys, even bought all the bits, but this seems to work very well.

    Great Boat Craig for non croc areas., Bloody quick set up, I can't run as fast as you anymore. I have given up on boats, dragged them all over the bloody place and the amount of time I used them, I would rather just go out on a fishing charter. Mushrooms yummy one day, dead the next. I only eat Woolies Mushies. You should be very proud of your efforts Craig, Looking forward to seeing the Feathers and Perpetual Transient Decals on the Van, with some Stripes/Decals or something. Register the name too, so no one can pinch it. Cheers

    I've seen many of those boat kits lately, do you reckon you will use it often with all set up and packing time after ???

    I think any boat solution comes with the same issues if you’re towing a caravan. Setting up a roof topper and fold away trailer would take longer than this in my opinion. I’m conjuring up a DIY project right now for roof topping the inflated boat so can take it from camp to various close-by launch sites as i reckon it’ll get more use if the boat isn’t just reliant on a waters edge camp site

    Any indication of top speed with the 20hp? And do you recommend these boats now?

    Out of interest, what’s the internal dimension of your tool box door that allows for the motor to fit?

  • @PerpetualTransient

    520x730mm. It could be 100mm narrower and still fit though. It’s tight on height but could use smaller casters too

    @@PerpetualTransient thanks mate, I’m considering this boat and motor combo. Just need to research a bit more. Planning on taking the van around Aus, and need a boat. Sadly my roof load limit is 100kg, but I do worry about getting holes in a blow up

    It seems super strong. And easy to repair on the fly. Won’t sink unless you put multiple holes in different spots too.

    Tell me how long it took to take out and assemble including inflating and how long to pack back down. I can double or triple that to figure out if its worth my rickety old knees.

    I reckon it’s about 20mins to setup fully. Pack down really depends if it’s wet and muddy. If you can keep it clean it’s about the same to pack down.
