Ok guys as crazy as it sounds I've been working hard (in my bathroom at home) these past few days and this is the end result.
So the question is of course "What the hull is it?"... here's a few clues.... All of it is in the photo below .... Well kinda! It can be pretty handy sometimes Things like this usually take up a lot of space
That's all I'm goner give you for now
Post your answers in a return address envelope!!!
Yes it's my new fold-able tender which I literally built in my bathroom at home! All of it is in the picture except the floor panel which is under the mattress .... So that's the footprint and the weight is about 15Kgs I think (will confirm).
It's made of 4mm CoroPlastic (Flute'd) sheet but it took a lot longer to build than anticipated because I kept making design enhancements which took time to implement. It's amazingly solid and stable for a plastic raft. It's only been tested on flat water so far but the draft is about 1" an it has 10" sides. I even managed to use it as a stand-up raft for quite some time too..... Cost about $170 to build.
And it goes fast! .... but still slower than my Blue hull Mac
Will let you know how I get on on the lake some time
American gators are wimpy things compared to Saltwater Crocs, I watch gator boys, they actually get in the water with a American gator, nobody ever deliberately gets in the water with a Salty thats just a death sentence waiting to be executed.
Saltwater Crocs not only have the highest bite pressure of any animal (over 3000lbs / square inch) but they are also highly aggressive, its not unheard of to have 20 foot plus salties
Well firstly "those waters" are my waters .... Our dam's quite close to our house and is well balance with nature. The Water Lilly's (that blossom pink flowers next month) provide a good breeding ground for small frogs who in turn eat mosquito larvae, so very few mosquito's around our place. I'm not concerned about Crocs, there's little for them to eat (apart from me lol!), but our long time resident Red-Belly Black Snake was out of hibernation yesterday and it did give me a bit of a fright at one point .... Yes they are strong swimmers but despite what many may tell you they are NOT an aggressive snake and will do whatever they can to keep their distance. I have no doubt that our Red-Belly Black plays an important role around the dam. So it's a welcome visitor to our humble abode ... so long as it keeps out of my Mac
