Hi I’m Patrick! I love spending time with my family and friends in the air and on the water. We really enjoy aviation, fresh water & ocean fishing and pretty much anything outdoors! I can’t wait to share some of our adventures with you! Expect Flying videos, boat modifications to all types of ocean and bass fishing, we try it all. Have an idea for a video drop it in the comments. As a business owner and disabled veteran I have the ability to take the time off to go flying my Jabiru Aircraft or hit the lakes! I may spend the weekend camping at the local camp ground with the family to do some kayak fishing. We’re pretty adventurous and do Mountain Biking, Camping, fishing and we even go flying in our airplane every now and then! Subscribe and join us and be one with out adventures!
Night flying is the best! Surely you’d agree!

Today I was able to get my hands on the new Bose A30’s and I figured since they sold out online having them on hand today was a blessing! So here’s the unboxing for the new A30’s enjoy!

BMW i3 delivery from Carvana delivered for my son, kind of an early 16th birthday gift. He did what I asked and saved 1/2 the cost of the car and chose this cool car to go in halves on! Proud dad moment! Very excited about his first EV journey
First catch on the 4th of July!

Landed my PB Snook in Lemon Bay just under the bridge for Manasota Key. You can hear the concern in my voice for my son to help land this fish! His excitement is obvious. I was just as excited. Thanks to my wife for filming.

Figured I’d do a June unboxing to share with you this months exciting box loaded with amazing baits and terminal tackle. Enjoy a few minutes with Mel and myself while we go through our new box! If I can get 100 likes you get to see Mel on the boat fishing on the next video! Also you'll meet my 2 German Shepherds ( the ones barking in the background) If you’d like to join the Monster Bass Family...

How's it holding up over the years?
Good idea with the table from Lowes, I'm going to use your general idea but with a longer table that's got supports I don't need to take out, it's white but I'm going over with flex seal, I'm a FlexSeal junkie that stuffs great for every thing
This Florida red neck is a genius🎉
Thank ya
nice build
Do you have more pontoon videos...??? I'm waiting for mine as I type
I don’t sorry I wish I used it more but I live on a bigger lake and use it less than I thought I would.
Can you share any dimensions?
Sorry late response comment back if you still need them
Quick Question: What is it like trying to row with the oars when you are sitting up that high? Would the 4" post be better? No post? I plan on fishing some lakes that don't allow motors of any kind, but also lakes that allow electric. Thanks for your reply.
The more elevated the harder is is to row. Unless you elevated the ore mounts
Awesome deck great idea. I am currently using wood but going to get a table today.
Sounds great!
Awesome
I’m doing a diy on my VOModular®6B pontoon kayak and this is perfect thanks a lot for the idea!
Thanks
I m from argentina, and i am interested in a pontoon, thanks for the information, your videi is very useful,
I see these modifications all the time, and they look good on video. But I have yet to see anyone of you that have made these videos actually show a video of yourself standing in fishing from the sitting position to the standing position. Not a single damn video on UA-cam shows this. So what good is all these modifications if you cannot show that they actually work.
See my other videos there’s a still of me standing on it.
That’s all good and dandy but it’s completely unnecessary. You don’t need that table all you need a 2 x 2 piece piece of wood. You don’t need to spend 30 something dollars to get a table to do this. A simple 2’ x 2 foot piece of wood will suffice just as well and doesn’t cost you nothing
I can find all kinds of videos of people making these modifications, but I have yet to find a video that showed somebody actually standing and fishing in the boat. So what’s the purpose of making these modifications and not showing that they actually work. I have searched UA-cam over and over and over again and have yet to find anybody standing on a Colorado pontoon boat versus much less fishing and filming on Colorado pontoon boat.
Check out my other video it should have me standing
What is the year of the BMWi3 you guys bought for your son?
Nicely done! Have you ever attempted a re-entry with the casting deck on?
Thankfully not I tend to stay on the boat
Nicely done! Have you ever attempted a re-entry with the casting deck on?
I have not I try to stay in the boat but I’m sure it’s possible
Paint the surface with roll on truck bed liner. Will give great traction
That is EXACTLY what I'll do if I buy the Colorado I'm looking at.
could you rig one of thse up for myself 185lb and my 9 year old son 60lb?
It’s a single person boat but they do make larger pontoons that are great for 2 people
took 2 years to build mine i used PVC for the frame cedar decking I bult a 4 way adjustable cherrywood seat, brass oar locks and 2 zipper bags that came with the tubes took a spin in it to make sure it worked ok and sold it to a nice older couple it had 30 minutes of use on it now I can build another one
The pvc bowed down quite a bit when you stepped on it. I would not be comfortable standing on it. Without those joints glued, if it were me I would add an oak dowel rod inside the pvc or 1/2 galvanized pipe to beef it all up. What if you're standing there ready to cast and it pops apart? What if in the process of falling you bust your head on those metal pipes. Or a fish hook swinging around as you're falling catches you in the eye. It would be so much safer to glue those joints and add a dowel inside the pvc to beef it all up. IMHO
No need to add just glue the joints. I still haven’t glued them it’s been years and no issues
How did you upload a 360 video to UA-cam? How do you do that?
Did you have to hand in any documents in person or just online? I know their website says it is contactless delivery.
I put my trolling motor in the front, helps against the wind pushing me around.
Yeah I just drive backwards 😂
$39 I was like wow than seen its from 3yrs ago good old trump days, the same table is like $60 now
Yeah unfortunately that’s the economy these days
this is by far the best deck set up I've seen so far $ and functional. How does this row being a bit higher up? TY
Rowing isn’t the best but the trolling motor is clutch
GOOD ACTION!!!
I'm confused as to what the 2 notches on the sides of the platform are for ? The center rear one is obious, but i'm having trouble seeing what the side cuts are actually there for. Thanks.
To access the anchor pulley and the pins for the frame
Great mods and ideas. Now they want about 70 bucks for that table so I will go with 2X2 plywood until I can find a reasonable replacement. I will still use that framework as it looks very stable and it gives me rod holders out of the way of my oars, rowing, etc. Bolting the battery box in the formally unusable area under the seat, good voodoo! If not using a battery, it would be good storage. Now if you had provided measurements for your PVC cuts...it would be 5 stars!
that same table is now $70 on Amazon
Ugh 😩
How do you get the trolling motor and battery to not sink the back? I'm using a 120v air pump and soon as I put the battery it drops and the trolling motor makes it drop more. Idk what to do
You have to sliding the seat mount almost all the way forward and mount the battery box on the seat rails
How is boat working out for you any complaints?
Genius mode was working when you came up with this mod!
Thanks
Great job. About as good as it gets for a simple cost effective modification. I just purchased a Colorado used pontoon boat. Sold my fishing boat last summer. I was wondering if I could take sitting all day on this new pontoon but I may just have to modify it with a pedestal seat and a fishing platform for sure👍🙏
Awesome tight lines!
How you liking your Colorado so far?
@Rastegarmma no complaints! Great boat
How did you get the seat up higher,
Walmart pedal-stool for a boat
How much weight did that add
The deck weighs 3.8 lbs itself
Get the title
We have the title thanks
thats awesome man
Looking to possibly upgrade from my 198 DLV. Does it have a shallow draft & is the ride still as rough? Mine beats the hell out of me and anyone I’m riding with if there is any chop.
The ride is ok in big chop Gita take it easy.. not as bad as the DLV but it’s similar
What do you use for a battery
ML55-12 - 12 Volt 55 AH, Nut and Bolt (NB) Terminal, Rechargeable SLA AGM Battery
Luv the Platform!!! Curious what riser size did you use for seat to clear battery? Just ordered a Colorado XT from Amazon today!!!! Thanks for the video. So Helpful
Sorry for the delayed response it’s just a Walmart adjustable seat post on the factory supplied seat
Great idea. I'll be doing this to mine, as well as some grip tape and a fish tape measure on that deck. Maybe drill a cup holder to it or some T-bolt Accessory rail then you could add your go pro mount or whatever to that mount.
how much was the delivery to your house?
Free delivery
That’s funny I live in new Smyrna right below Daytona Beach and here on Saturday I’m bringing home my 19 Ls from aloha marine, curious what this bad boy set you back though back a year ago though thank you
Did you make any adjustments to the seat for that battery to fit with the seat?
Just raised it
Pretty sweet Zander! Congratulations! Don’t forget to check out the BMW i3 groups on Facebook. Can be a lot of info and help!
How did you mount on a swing seat with the swivel? I like it
Feel free to pm me I’ll talk you through it I’m under Patrick Blackwelder on Facebook of Plant City Florida
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!!👍❗❗❗❗
Thank you!
is your original decking holding up? Like the plastic table hack, black might get hot where i am.
I wear shoes on the deck so the black doesn’t bother me they do have white tables.. but yes holding up just fine. Not modified or replaced since this video.
Nice I'm starting to look at skiffs myself. Thanks for the insight
