I laughed a lot while outfitting this boat. Groaned a lot during the lengthy filming and editing of this video. Spent a ton of money pursuing this asinine en devour. Yet, I would do it again for the laughs! I hope you enjoyed watching as much as I enjoyed making it all happen.
Something tells me this won't be the last time I do something stupid like this. Thanks for the views and for encouraging me to live life to the fullest!

Many thanks also to Pelican for all they have done for me over the years.
And to King Starboard for both making a great product and for believing in me.
And to Todd for providing me with tons of Starboard scraps and screws and tools and for putting up with my hijinks.
Not least, thanks to you to my Patrons, both to my kayak rental business and to those that contribute via Patreon. You really help me live this dream everyday.

I don’t know how anyone can downvote this guys hustle, intelligence, and drive if anything at all. The effort this took. Much love man.
-
He said it himself, its not about practicality. Its about following his heart. Excellent execution on this. Man has a gift for using accessible tools and materials to turn ideas into a functioning reality. Round of applause.
-
I was completely mesmerized by this man's ingenuity and dedication. I managed a high tech electro-mechanical laboratory for decades, and I wished I had 10 of him , this man is a "doer" , a self starter, and a genius.
-
The amount of work that went into this is impressive. I was not expecting it to be so well made to be honest.
-
This has to be the coolest thing I’ve seen built in a while
-
Awesome build. I'm a STEM Coordinator at a school and this is a perfect example of "why build it?" "Because I want to" Kudos- never lose that spirit.
-
This has to be one of my favorite builds on YouTube, super entertaining and educational. Great video man!
-
Big respect on how clean and factory issued it appears. The ×3 logos really sold the look and were very cool.
-
Youtube needs a "love" button, not just a "thumbs up."
-
I really like that you use time-lapse instead of cutting between operations. That alone made me appreciate your hard work so much more!
-
He did what every man wanted to do but didn't do it. Thanks for bringing us along for the trip, Props!

Honestly the best part of these insane builds is that no one is ever going to reproduce them but the innovation that comes from them helps us craft ideas for our own kayaks and small craft ... I mean the tackle box on the side ehhh I usually take more tackle than my damn body weight but in terms of building safe structurally sound this is the man to watch thanks again for a great video.... and to the no music ... after building a baby gas monster maybe a little smoke on the water by deep purple

This is hardly a "poor man's" version. You've got a fortune in time, starboard and other stuff invested. Overall I'm impressed with the workmanship and the ideas you used.
-
I generally only fully watch when I plan on taking on a similar project. I have absolutely no desire to do anything like this, but could not stop watching. Great job. Great detail. I learned a lot.
-
Man I watched this whole build! I could not take my eyes away from it, all the cool linkages and throttle system alone was fantastic! A true custom build! This video is great and I enjoyed the process I gotta see another one!
-
I love how this man does not wear shoes at all while working. Even while around sharp objects he just doesn’t care.
-
I like this guy hes not trying to be famous on youtube hes just trying to entertain people
-
"Who else actually watched the whole thing?" I DID!! Nice work pal, you did one heck of a job!!
-
This was fun! High value entertainment and learning—-10/10...EZ to listen to...Cool to give your friend Mark some YT time and let him share a lesson! Long and good health to you and yours!

Is it just me or is it super satisfying when he drills and installs stuff in time lapse
