If I can tweak this thing into running as well as it looks, I'm gonna be really happy. Thank you for watching and commenting

You have done a fantastic job! Nothing to be sorry about. Like most things we build from the ground up they are things that we have to tweek. You will get it done I’m sure. Looks really nice!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Most definitely true. I'm not the type of person that is scared to admit to something of my work, needing to be done better

I'm looking forward to the next video

I'm thinking that I will have most everything adjusted and will have video on the water. Just going to take some time with shipping to and from

When I saw the linkages between the rudders, I knew something was up. I felt like that wasn't going to last long. On the bright side you have the entire frame finished and the schematics set up so it shouldn't be too long before you get the boat working properly.

I made the rod too short, where that the rod end bearing wasn't threaded in enough plus I didn't lock the jam nut. They all will be rebuilt so that ot is threaded in more.

Btw.. A great looking fabrication Sr.

No discouragement! No need to move everything. Extend the hull by Boxing in behind the transom and make it a small tool storage area wit some diamond plate doors on top.

Already in the process of moving the engine stand and redoing the cage. No discouragement, honestly I was expecting it to be this way

@@BoondockingCajunstyle yes Sr. That’s usually the way it goes. So many things to consider fabing a boat, especially with weight distribution and displacement. You almost got it whooped though, won’t be long and you’ll be flying across the water in it.

Thank you. Just part of the game, we definitely going to get everything worked out

Just out of curiosity, why do you have the adjustment between the rudders? My airboat rudders are bolted to a solid bar. I dont see any reason to adjust them

@BoondockingCajunstyle

24 күн бұрын

Just to get all of them tuned together. Once all are aligned they will be locked into place. These little boats need all the help they can get

Would adding ballast (lead) in the bow balance the boat easier than shifting everything?

@BoondockingCajunstyle

I'm sorry I didn't see this comment. I do have several hundred pounds of lead. That maybe could help. These little boats are extremely weight sensitive. It is a lot of work to move everything but, it is something that needs to be done. Thank you for watching and commenting.

You could get away with two rudders id bet.

I strongly consider that. The consideration that one engine may break down. With 4 rudders I would have a better chance of some control.
