It really is fun when you start to get a feel for it since you have complete control of the puddle. But nothing will piss you off more than when you stick a freshly ground or balled tungsten when you first touch the pedal :lol:

More like picturing you dropping a small engine on your toe. I know a guy personally who lost a toe that exact way. Dropped a lawn mower engine on it.

I try to avoid straining my brain by counting that high.

Done feeding the mosquitoes for the night but feels good to make progress. This will end up being the water intake and has a ways to go.

Taking shape. Lines are just for a general idea, not the exact layout.

One small piece of advice flight, don't weld in those sandals!

Haha I at least had sneakers in today. I've been burned enough to know I don't enjoy it!

Once had to weld inside a stainless tank, had everything covered but the back of neck, flash reflecting put 2nd degree burns on neck right below my hairline.

Great idea !

How well would it work in a duck lake with all the weeds and crap in the shallow water?

Thanks but I can't take credit just copying others.

It wouldn't, surface veggies wood choke it out bad. If they are sub surface you can be fine on plane since it just takes the top layer of water to run. Just have to be careful. Depends on type of grass too probably.

Progress has been slow with everything going on but managed to about finish up the intake today.

Had the plate water jetted to get a good clean fit. Money well spent.

Looks like you're starting to get somewhere now.

You should start building boats like that . Don't see many out there like it .
you could make millions on that money boat .

I'm very impressed so far! Keep up the good work!

You going to put a hard sided blind on it?

If he does can we call it the Titanic? I think the Fitzgerald is taken.

Posted: **Wed Oct 15, 2014 9:17 am**

The boat does look badass so far Flight. Can't wait to see videos of it in action.

Duh, the jet will also act as propulsion whilst in the air!
