Building An Outrigger For A Kayak! (UPDATE in description)
Просмотров 33 тыс.8 лет назад
*UPDATE* To everyone who spent their time watching, liking, and commenting on this video I would like to thank you! I’m sorry that there will not be a part two to this video. All of the video footage that I had was lost because my camera reformatted the card that it was on. Where the project ended up.. I did fiberglass over the foam and it went pretty well. The one drawback was weight. It weigh...

Here's the introduction to my youtube channel. Please ignore the little bit of camera awkwardness I have because this is my first video. Thank you so much for watching! Enjoy!
I like how you made the lip with the heat gun, very clean install
great vid. i went easy route though. used surfboard, 4 mounting plates, pvc, dowling rods, flag pole holders that adjust, and plank of wood.
My friend good job and keep going. From Puerto Rico
Good video. Making the outriggers out of 1/8" plywood using the stitch and glue method and then fiber glassing it, would have been less messy and less work if not about the same. Make side panels out of cardboard and test fit it holding panels together with tape, once you are happy with the results, take it apart and trace the cardboard side panels outline onto the plywood to cut and use for the final product. I know I know, everything is always easier in theory, but it should work. Make sure to build on the top side of the outrigger a water sealed hatch, in case water ever gets in the outrigger, you will be able to get it out via the hatch.
cubanation74 I think doing it in ply would be more difficult and labor intensive than this foam method. This foam way looks a lot simpler. I'm looking at making my own and this looks the easiest way to me
Part one is great just sorry there isn't a part 2.
Cant you simply buy styrofoam construction blocks wich are cheap. Paint with water-paint and then add fiberglass? You are doing a mess in this bidro.
Where is the finished product lol
What size hatch did you use and where did you get it in thinking of doing the same thing
woodprix has very useful instructions with all details I need
hi have you got around to doing the finishing video yet ,would be great to see the finished item.please reply
i have a gas motor on my canoe,and no outrigger,works fine
I'm happy that works out for you. At the time I was making this video the kayak I was was 12 feet long and didn't have the greatest stability. I was taking it into rough Ocean water fishing for striper, So it definitely would've added to the safety factor, and I thought it would be a fun experiment.
great video. I was watching to see the finished product, as soon as you said you were going to fiberglass it, the video when to outtakes. ??? anyway, I'll look for an updated video and testing.
Definitely in the near future I'm going to do an update. I ended up moving and buying a different kayak so that project never got finished. I did a few layers of fiberglass and painted it shortly after this video. I do plan on putting a final video up. Thank you for being patient and following!!!
we need all the building action|||||||||||\
tractor supply had large blocks of foam they trow in the dumpsters.. would work with much less effort
Good job Devin
it be quicker to use Lobster Pot
I didn't really like the PVC, lobster pot buoy, or boat fender (dock protector) look. I was going for a more finished and fit look. All of the alternative options probably work just fine and it wouldn't be nearly as involved to build them, this is just my style and the route I took.
Nice work with the heat gun👍🏽
can you make a video on how you finished the pontoons and how you finished them like how you attached them
+clay firkins I have an update video coming out soon. Thanks for your patience!

Nice Mod. I have been thinking about dropping a deep cycle battery in that square. Looking for some sort of tall hatch cover, I think the battery will stick up past the deck.
i got the same yak. check my winter customization projects
What size hatch did u use
Dude when are you gonna finish?
+joe buck I ended up changing my plans for it. I'm going to use what I made in this video and the rest of the footage that I haven't uploaded to make a mold so I can cast a lighter one. I'll put together a video of where I'm at with it!
