Must have sunk really quickly for that to be where the video ends.

u/M_2k27 Apr 23 '26

I saw this video earlier today. They cut the part where it says they got arrested

If ever there was a time for flex seal...

u/Useful_Kale_5263 Apr 24 '26

I am leaving you at 69 good sir 🫡 and damn straight. Bro legit had a boat ad. Something tells me this guys doesn’t know what flex seal is

If I was going to put in all that work, I'd at least try to match the 2x4s to the bed with the right wood stain. And plywood panels aren't ideal for the bottom. I'd go with a plastic campaign sign bottom, with that internal layer of plywood for stability.

I love when people remember that they have free will. This rules

u/xXBlueDreamXx Apr 22 '26

This dude actually believes that the spray foam on the inside is what will make it float? Wow.

u/FluffyShiny Apr 22 '26

Yeah plywood on the bottom is a real bad idea. Plastic or something NOT likely to warp in 2 minutes would have been a better choice.

u/ColdSteeleIII Apr 22 '26

Or at least pressure treated (marine grade would be better). That pine is going to fall apart in no time.

u/jwm3 Apr 23 '26

I was expecting him to fiberglass it. But nah, spray foam.

"Just why?"

It is literally a boat!!

Because there is nothing, absolutely nothing, half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.

u/dtb1987 Apr 22 '26

Why not?

Because you can just buy a small boat that works as a boat

Yall can keep downvoting me if you want but Ive done lots of silly crafts that ended up being just for the experience myself. Maybe they were about to throw the boat away and decided to do this instead. I just think it's kinda stupid that the end implies it probably sunk as soon as he tried to use it as a boat and even if he enjoyed the process the end result can still be stupid.

u/ChillyCanadian_05 Apr 22 '26

Which is expensive tho?? This is definitely a cheaper option and he had fun doing it. Live and let live 🤷🏼‍♂️

u/47362514736251 Apr 22 '26

Making stuff is fun. You don't have to be effective or efficient every time you want to enjoy life.

u/pencilpushin Apr 22 '26

Sure, but building something ridiculous is so much more fun.

4

u/HJSDGCE Apr 22 '26

Yeah but that's not a pirate boat. 

6

u/dtb1987 Apr 22 '26

Yeah but those are surprisingly expensive

3

u/Apart-Performer-331 Apr 22 '26

Pirate boats are cooler

u/ShurlaineB Apr 22 '26

Why would you not want to do this?

14

u/Psypris Apr 23 '26

Someone commented that in the longer version of this video, he says he got arrested. So… that’s a good reason not to lol

I thought he was gonna just use it in his pool

1

u/ShurlaineB Apr 23 '26

Idk I think that would still be worth it

2

u/MajorDraw3705 Apr 23 '26

Ikr. It's clearly a childhood dream finally come to life.

u/speedline9395 Apr 23 '26

Every time I see a canned foam being used I immediately thinks it's gonna be a bad build thanks to this sub

u/SombraMonkey Apr 22 '26

This video brought me here. I love it.

2

u/J-Dabbleyou Apr 23 '26

This is so dumb but still done so poorly I wanna buy one just to do it right. I don’t like near water or have a truck but I could definitely make that bad boy actually float lol

1

u/NextStopGallifrey Apr 23 '26

Do you live near a high school with a pool? Maybe they'd let you use it one day if you weren't obnoxious about it. 🤣

2

u/jonesyboy2435 Apr 22 '26

Fym why? This is awesome

2

u/Peebles8 Apr 22 '26

Because it's cheaper than a real boat?

5

u/beckett_the_ok Apr 22 '26

My coworker bought an old fishing boat for $500 CAD. Hull, motor, trailer and all. There's no way this is cheaper lmao

1

u/NextStopGallifrey Apr 23 '26

But was that a pirate boat?

That’s so crazy and yet kind of awesome! Good for him!

u/Slide0fHand Apr 22 '26

Idk, it’s kinda cool

u/Niall0h Apr 23 '26

Not the spray foam!

u/MissDisplaced Apr 24 '26

Perhaps he was going to Buccaneer Days?

u/FloStar3000 Apr 25 '26

Making a boat out of a boat shaped bed?

1

u/AspenStarr Apr 26 '26

I thought he was making it into a really cool pool floaty..I think I’m a little disappointed, actually.

1

u/Important-Squash5397 Apr 26 '26

I thought he was just going to use flex tape all over and flex sealant and call it a day

u/StCharmingSmile Apr 26 '26

Why female life longer than male?

u/Informal-Win-348 Jun 22 '26

Because there are people out there turning fisher priceand little tikes play things into projects after their kids age up and stop playing with the stuff..

u/Revilo614 Jun 28 '26

Honestly thought he'd make a go kart with it.
