Your creativity is on another level
Nice job, thanks for sharing
Brilliant design!
Thanks!
Amazing job buds. Cheers from Ontario Canada. Beautiful deck on the boat as well.
This is just too badass!
Nice build. You could use a small bulkhead for the slide point
Digging your ingenuity and skills. Well freigen done!
Best quarantine comment on youtube: "YES!!!! This is the best thing Ive done all day!"
...as he scratches his balls!!,
Brilliant
Great build man. Thanks for sharing it all
Dude u gone cause me to loose my mind lol u got to many good ideas
For adding strength to that pvc the fiberglass poles for fishing wire through walls take a few pieces and tape them together to fill up the inside of the pvc pipe then epoxy them in place the will still allow for flex but but make the pvc pipe more ridged for durability in a stronger current
Thanks I'm building a system for a pontoon and I have been trying to figure out how to make poles
Man that's an awesome boat.. I'm an LED light guy and your boat looks sick.. cant wait to get my boat like that..
Bad ass Mike! Looking forward to what’s next
These are awesome! Keep up the innovation and content, it’s awesome for guys with not much of clue where to start with these mods.
That boat is on another level ,very inspiring
Wow I need this on my 3 John boats
So simple so smart
Nice boat
Do you have a parts list? And rough dimensions? Definitely gonna build a set
Just found your channel the other day while looking for ideas. You do a lot of amazing things! Thank you for your time and effort in making the videos
Thanks for watching!
You can take a little flex out of the poles by temporarily capping them off and filling them with expanding foam. The mix and pour kind…..not the spray. Mix and pour just a bit at a time until it is full…….or it may mess up your pvc tube. Adds about 15 to 20 percent more stiffness……
Super helpful. Thanks
That’s amazing! Great work man
Ever consider selling them? Great build.
Love it best thing ever love your boat
This thang is nice!
Definitely going to be doing this on my build. Only thing I think I would change is using amsteel cord instead of 550. It is a little more expensive though.
Hi. Great work on your boat. How deep do you think the poles work effectively? I run a 16' jon boat with a trolling motor in amongst the cypress trees on the lake I live on. Trying to fish and raise and lower an anchor gets really tedious and the breeze blows the boat around too much to just drift. We are generally in 6 to 10 feet of water. Thanks
Good video man!
It looks sweet! I've recently picked up three boats I am going to fix up. I've checked out a lot of your amazon affiliate links. If you find the time to update all your top picks I think that could go a long way. Some of the items are not even available on their anymore. Keep it up man!
Amazon right now is focused on medical and home items due to the pandemic and honestly fishing stuff should be getting prime delivery.
Do you have a video of the poles coming up
Like spuds on a barge !
Time to buy a Tig brother 👍
Rubber gromets for rope to run through would work great they look like bong gromets
Cut your aluminum with a chop saw for flawless joints.
Please put this kit on your website
Can you make a video.. Micro anchor vs power pole, pros and cons.. how to determine which is best for you..
Awesome work, I'd love to do this!
what kind of tool is that orange tool you used for the nuts
Awesome!
If you are fishing in a river with motherly fast moving water use cotton rope because nylon stretches. If the anchor gets hung it can and will sink your boat in a matter of seconds. If you are fishing fast water keep a knife real close just in case you need it! Been There and Done That! Just wanted you to know that and not do what I did. DT Ephesians 3:20
What is your opinion on fishing jet ski setup
7/64 amsteel rope may work better, its slick and glides well, floats, won't rot, UV stable and super strong.
I like this idea a lot! Have you tried using the plastic 3/8" water line for conduit? Thinking of going small since I would run under the ribs. Just not sure if that water hose would cause binding or not.
Solid build! Was wondering if anyone’s done a tilt system for their outboard. My 1448 grizzly is in need.
Is there plans for this build somewhere? I really want to build this
Nope, just what you see here.
Just subscribed cus of this video thanks great job looking forward to seeing all your vids thanks
Awesome mike thank u for this bro
just got a 4 foot by 10 foot v bottom and I am gonna use that corona cash to hook it up. I need an anchor system and a front deck
In the first clip you added that aluminum plate to the transom to mount the motor on. Could someone elaborate on that a bit.. (what is it, why would you do it) Please
Are they weighted or something? How do they dig in?
Put a torch on top may be? If you stop the boat at night, it can double as the tail light. Afterall, the box is big, big enough to hide a road construction yellow flashlight
Do you have any plans for that sweet Jack plate?
So I'm watching you video I like it but I'm not really an anchor guy but I'll tell you this I would love to have that Jack Plate system setup that's a 100% sweet!!!!
Did I miss the part on how you activate them?
Yes
Heavy stainless steel wire bent into an eyelet, twisted around a few times, shoved inside of a tall soda/beer/energy drink can full of cement, then allowed to dry. Add clothes rope tied to the eyelet or to a disconnect clasp.
Repeat as desired.
Throw, or slide, cement anchors down in the water. Fish.
@@TinyBoatNation A good bit easier for a kayak! 😁
should hook it up to a minnkota powered anchor system with a remote and they could be automatic and u could mount it in the back just use the remote to pull the poles up.
I wonder if Flared steel fuel line to run the 550 cord through would work
Great build as always! Do you run both lines up front or is it connected inside the conduit? Thanks will keep watching for new builds
Are there plans for these on patreon?
Thank you sir!🙌🏾🙌🏾💯
Anyone know what make and model of boat he runs?
Awesome videos! Do you contract your work? I have a 15’ Gregor that I want to have modified.
What forces then down
What did you do at the front to hold the poles up when theyre not being used?
@@TinyBoatNation figured so. Thanks!
would you ever consider an electric outboard?
You should make it when you pull the strings it drives the poles down?
This is my question as well.......
What seats the pole into the bottom? Gravity?
I was thinking you could add weight to the poles by putting a couple feet of rebar in the tips of them. So they slide better and have more penetration. Looks good though!
@@TinyBoatNation yea that's what I was wondering is what weighed them down enough..... that's jus pvc poles right???
@@TinyBoatNation Are the poles PVC or something else?
How much would a boat like this cost? I’m new to the channel and don’t know if you’ve covered it before or not.
Not bitching but dude your boat looks like the cockpit of the Apollo 13 !
6:13 FURTHER
How come you rivet everything. Why not self tappers? I’m sure there’s a reason. But the strength should be about the same I’d think?
What was the length of The pvc pipe?
@@TinyBoatNation was that the length of the power pole?
A little more detail on how they work. For instance how do you raise and lower them. The control end of the project. I get showing the boxes and pullies part with the PVC pipe and all, but you showed absolutely nothing on how you make them work! Would love to make a set for my boat. Okay I have gotten a couple of replies on this. Maybe I should be more clear. Is the PVC pipe weighted or something? Because just the pure weight of a pvc pipe isn't enough to go down and hold the boat in place. Yes he did show all the pullies and the cord you pull to retract them from the down position. But how could PVC pipe alone be enough to hold in place?
He showed exactly how they work. They function off gravity. You use the pull rope that runs through a series of 3 pulleys and a length of conduit to keep the rope from binding when raising the poles and to lower them. I would imagine to hold them up you tie off your pull rope to a boat cleat which should already be installed on the front of the boat
@@dan776 okay but is the pole weighted or something? Surely just the weight of the PVC pipe isn't enough to keep it in place when in the down position?
@@FrankieFfsj yes weighted
Automotive grade grommets would have been an easier than melting plastic. Plus they Do hold up
How's that 25 Mercury doing for you
@@TinyBoatNation I have a 2019 25 hp all manual on a 14ft skiff seems to be very reliable and good on gas good out the hole but no top speed only about 25 knots
@@TinyBoatNation check this out for me someone told me that you can put 30 horse injectors on the 25 and that's the only difference between a 25 and and 30 horsepower please check with your outboard man and see if that is so --John Glenn 🇺🇸 thanks,👍 it might make for a good video
Hey guys, I run a 2019 Suzuki 9.9 hp, I have 10 hp restricted lakes near me. I converted the 9.9 to 20 hp. It’s on a 1648 monarch Jon boat. It run 25 mph. It’s funny watching the people stair at you running up and down the lake. Lol
Bass boat
Great job bro looking forward to the next DIY

"by anybody with a brain and a will "...
Gonna use this response from now on.
Can you make me some
It would be cool to use colored pvc pipe or aluminum Condit. But awesome job man
How does it get down pressure? Im not seeing the benefit of this over a stick in anchor and a hoop. Pulling that string looks like more trouble than just pushing down a pole. I just went eith a micro power pole. The only reason was the remote anchor feature. Now i can shave 30 seconds off stop to cast routine. Also much more comfortable than running to the bsck and fumbling with that stick it
It looks much better in a smaller watercraft
@@TinyBoatNation im not even considering aesthetics. I use a gheenoe so my floor/gunwhale spare is small and understand the budget stuff. I dont understand how that design create downward force to maintain anchor. Does it just fall and rope pulls up?
You have to sand the oxidation layer off of aluminum 1st............... WTF?
