Pontoon Boat - Diving Platform, PVC PIPE PLAY BOAT, Configurable Note: this is not a safety device, it's not coastguard approved. Do not use while stupid, If you are stupid please steer clear of my designs and leave this page go try someone else's design, thank you. If you don't know if your stupid or not please ask someone, they will tell you if you are. Ah now that that's done and joking aside, Wear a life jacket and be sure to follow all applicable water safety and laws in your area. This is a toy but can be dangerous as your on the water. The saddles are setup to be used on a 10" sch 40 pipe. NOTE* buoyancy is dependent on length and number of tubes used, no I'm not going to give length to weight ratios. thats why it's do it yourself. You can see basic setup in pictures, Screw the saddles to the tube (I'd use copious amounts of silicone under it and around holes before screwing in place, your on the water it needs to be water proof) Saddles are designed for common 2x4 lumber (might want to use something with rot resistance just saying. Last the trolling motor mount is optional also untested as I'm just gonna try this with paddles for the little folk. Make sure you have a backup attachment if mount fails. A safety step that is kind of nice is to blow up a trash bag inside the tube, this is just a secondary safety in case something goes drastically wrong. For a platform just print of rear covers for all tubes. Enjoy play have fun be safe.
