    I almost feel like the odd shape is going to make the boat want to go backwards...without some kind of horizontal stabilization to the rear I feel like the boat will 'want' to turn around so the round part is facing the front and you're making a rough teardrop shape as you move through the water and your bow will actually be your rear.
    That's almost 100% how it would work in air, I'm not sure about water though.
    I could be wrong that's just the feeling I get.
    EDIT: To better explain what I mean, picture the boat from the top down. If you're in moving water or moving through water and the bow is anything other than dead on, the water is going to be pushing the bow to whichever side it's off to. But there's nothing on the back of the boat or anywhere else to correct that push, so it's just going to keep pushing until it rotates around.
    Once it's flipped around though, the water moving around the boat towards the back is going to keep it traveling in a roughly straight line, because for the same reasons it's going to push it back to being centered.
    This is how a tail on an airplane keeps it steady.
    I can draw a picture if it would help, I know words aren't the best for this

      @@houseofknox8066 I think a keel kind of makes it hard to float down the river though. Maybe a foot or two if it's enough?

      You're right. The basic issue is that the center of pressure is going to be in front of the center of mass, so the moment there's a little bit of sideways force it's going to create a moment that spins it around.

      @@edrupp2318 to some degree yes. Depends on weight/size. Without a proper rudder or something though I think he'll basically have to permanently "trim" it like an aircraft to keep it facing forward.

      To be fair, once it's filled up with water it would take quite a bit of sun to get that whole mass heated up, it would be a little bit like how you can hold a flame against a balloon if it's filled with water. So if it's put in the shade it really shouldn't get that hot.

You had a machine that would mix the two parts together and you would pour it into the mold put a waxed plywood board on top and then put it in a hydraulic press. Definitely wouldn’t be what we consider safe, but it was fun for me as a child as I ran around that factory.

    I'm really curious to see how you're going to attach the motor, and what you're going to do to create some kind of keel. I wonder if the angle of the front is enough to keep it in line if the motor in back is well positioned, or if you really do need to add something below the trough to keep it traveling straight. I'd imagine that when these things float down the river without the boat shape, they just do a lot of spinning.

    Around 5:50, Longitudinal structure is not a frame, frame is Transversal structure, The top one is more like a sheer strake, at the bottom one will be more a bilge strake. Just saying, if you wanna know the good terminology. Anyway, good fun and wood working knowledge watching you. Thanks.

    I'm sure you were taking adequate ventilation precautions with that expanding foam since it produces highly toxic fumes during the curing process.
