The one question that springs to mind, why did you choose a USD5,500 Schiller when you could have opted for Chiliboat high-performance water bike, where the initial and running costs (spares etc.) are far less? I can only assume you're sponsored by Schiller for the publicity. Otherwise it would be like doing an off-road trip in a Porsche Cayenne when the entire journey would be as enjoyable - and cost far less - in a Toyota Landcruiser.
You get what you pay for. Chiliboats have the propeller in the front, the operator from the videos I’ve seen is getting wet while peddling and maneuvering could be more difficult, Schiller also seems to be more beefy with the pontoons looking bigger and longer. In this video he had a platform strapped onto the pontoons as well as his gear, can’t see that happening on a Chiliboat.
@@Macgyrl64 I've been out on the Chiliboats in various sea conditions, swells and wind, getting wet - up to the knee - was only an issue when doing a beach launch. One's feet might get a little wet on a choppy ocean, but that's to be expected, it is after all a water sport. Schiller's "beefy pontoons" are also heavier, all this additional weight needs to be propelled by the rider (Chiliboats also offer "beefy" pontoons for riders weighing more than 120kg). Chiliboats weigh a mere 19.5kg and are easy to propel (I've even towed a friend on her Chiliboat to test the performance). Chiliboats can now also be fitted with a factory-supplied platform, allowing one to carry one's gear. There are even tandem Chiliboats for two people. Schiller is great, but why kill a fly with a sledgehammer if a flyswatter works just as well.
@@Visionery1 He totally could be sponsored. But look at all of the kit he’s bringing along. Do the two water bikes have the same area for cargo and the same ability for additional weight? I suspect the answer might be there.
@@RickActual yes, Chiliboats are now available with larger floats able to carry a 170kg passenger (or a lighter passenger and lots of cargo), they also offer a platform. They even make tandem units.
What about a catamaran made with a 200lt drum? whoever wants to participate with suggestions or criticism, just visit the detectorism is therapy channel. Congratulations friend for the boat.
