- Jon boat builds will never be the same after this. On this journey of building aluminum boats into ultimate fishing rigs, I always try to raise the bar higher and higher. This 1648 jon boat is my chance to showcase almost a decade of experience, knowledge and skills learned. We also have a master class coming out for it! Stay tuned.

I've been watching your builds and other's for a couple years. I've always thought the pour foam being sealed off from the bilge and sides was a good idea but nobody seemed to be doing it. This is the best build yet. You've come a long way since the pool noodles.
Someone needs to get this guy the funding, the facility, and the team he needs to just become a full on boat manufacturer.
Production models of boats this quality could turn the small fishing boat industry on its head, depending on their retail price
Regardless of the price it will turn the industry on its head as there is nothing quite like this out there. He could be designing a fold out clamshell unit that drops from a helecopter for Navy Seals to use. The space savings and attention to detail continually blow my mind. I went to Industrial Design School, and alot of my projects ended up like this: a perfect blend of art and engineering. Great stuff.
This video is inspirational as hell! So much knowledge for generations to come. You truly are a pioneer. Thank you.
No prob!
Built my 12' JB with inspiration from you (3 years ago). Would have added an additional few hatches if I could have afforded it but I love it. Get positive reviews almost every time I go out.
Loving the longer form videos for these builds. You truly have talent and out do yourself on every build. Been a fan for a while and will stay one. From a fellow boat lover and mechanic, keep up the great work and you really are an inspiration in the industry.
Again, an awesome build that showcases your highly developed skills proven over time. I have always wanted to learn how to weld. Kudos to you for taking the time to learn. I've said it before, you make it look easy. I appreciate what you do and the content you provide on your channel.
Thanks a bunch for stopping by!
Excellent Build, your content and Craftsmanship keeps on getting better and better.
Thank you very much!
Just in time i was looking for how a 16 would work as my family is growing and that is just about what i think we need in the end
Beautiful creation bro!
great build, amazing attention to detail, its great to see your progress over the years.
Thanks for watching over the years!
IMO, you sir are the best in the business!
Some would argue otherwise.
Should be a million views on this wow this is amazing and detail as heck. Awesome boat...
Wow, thank you!
Great boat. I got lots of ideas watching.
Such good work. I’m getting ready to do a 7 passenger Lowe from 97.
Great looking boat good job like always brother..,
Those camo colors are atrocious, BUT, killer work man. I dig how you are honest about old mistakes and how you learned from them. Nice job.
This camo color is AWESOME!!!
@@TinyBoatNation😂
Sick build as always 👍
Appreciate it!
Can you do a short video on electronics and there requirement as far as voltages, batteries, on board chargers, switches, fuses, ect. I love the videos I want you to geek out on electronics why someone would choose the things and why the put it together like that. Maybe use this boat as an example.
There are a ton of electric videos on UA-cam. Select any of them.
That little landing deck thing you made for front of your feelfree dorado. Very nice. You should have made some to sell. I have a Feelfree Lure 10 and a Big Fish 105. I love to put one on my Big Fish.
Great idea
Awesome video, Mike. I’m going to email you soon with the video and some other things I have questions about!
Got it!
These boats are 5 times more expensive than they should be 😢
Seeing the terminal ends crimped with channel locks and not get heated hurt the wiring part of my soul so bad! But the boat still turned out great
Those are all Marine grade nylon connectors. I wouldn’t recommend them for saltwater, but there are no problems with freshwater applications. You can use either nylon or heat connectors in these cases
Great video!
OMG a wild Jacob suddenly appeared!
very nice
Amazing how far everything has evolved to. Now you hire guys to build full time for you and start selling
We are hiring!
love the custom t_tracks added to the gunnels.. im looking to do the same to my boat and add them full length but cant find them. Could you help point me in the direction
I ordered all of mine through Amazon for dirt cheap
@45:41( exactly, it is very fleeting) there are two scratches on a hatch lid. I know it doesnt matter as it will be covered in foam, but in case i wanted to leave an exposed hatch surface, are these painted or powdercoated?
Powder coated
I've got a 1542 War Eagle. I'd like to see what could with something like that.
Got a 2008 Alumacraft T14V and want to remove the bench seats and put in a floor with 2 pole seats. Any suggestions?
good job
Thanks
Why don’t you mount the trolling motor at an angle so it is in the middle
Outstanding job! Love your videos they give me ideas for my own boat .lam doing some mods to it and i will purchase items from your web site.
Heck yeah! Get it while it's good.
awesome
Where are you out of? The spot you work out of looks like the residential lots in Phoenix (due to all the gravel I see in the landscaping) where my brother lives, but I was out to lunch with a metals rep from Haggerty Steel in the Quad Cities (where hwy 80 crosses the mississippi) the other day and he said he supplies your stuff? Are you in Illinois?
We are out of Illinois in Georgia
I have a grizzly tracker 1654 im putting a 50hp suzuki on. The setup of your boat is very similar to how i want mine
The 50 horse is too light for a grizzly
My grizzly tracker is a 2007 model that ive had all the floor ribs rewelded and had stiffners added. When i bought it, it had a 25hp etec tiller on it
Awesome build sir! Question for you, I know you mentioned you weren’t sure the brand but where do you source your pvc rod tubes/what size do you use?
1.5 inch black PVC from Lowes or Home Depot
You are GOOD 👍
I try
I can never take the suspenseful music seriously... It's a cool vid but it really seems like overkill lol.
It’s my style lol
WOW such an amazing build great job. Makes me want to build one even more now! Also, you guys are hiring? If you teach I'd love to join the team.
We are actually hiring! Can you submit your resume to mike@TBNation.net? Thanks.
@@TinyBoatNation Sounds good!
Welding is the quickest way to a hundred k
FACTS! Young men watching this video head this man's advice!
Why is “time running out”?
We’re all getting to the point where we’re too old and busy to do stuff like this, for ourselves at least.
Why is your perfect boat a tiller? And if you're going to say space, why not compensate with a slightly bigger boat?
16ft is the perfect tiny boat platform. Anything larger than that it starts to become cumbersome and hard to store anywhere.
Man it’s a boat not a thriller
😂 Prepare to be thrilled!
Nope uh uh. Never would do this.
28:10 Dont ever do that again lol
Damn the intro made zero sense
He needs to just focus on the video and leave all the other nonsense out talking about competition he did this, and he did that nobody cares, dude
Yeah… Lose all that stuff at the beginning. It just kept going and felt cheesy. I'm here to see a boat, not get a Tony Robbins speech
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
Theodore Roosevelt
It behooves every man to remember that the work of the critic is of altogether secondary importance, and that, in the end, progress is accomplished by the man who does things.
Theodore Roosevelt
