Great start in idea. But, the inside of the closed in pipe needs to be filled with closed cell foam, then truly it will be unsinkable.

Pretty sure wood boats are the most environmentally safe design. Plastic breaks down in the sun and more plastic in the ocean seems like the opposite of what people are going for

I love the constructive feedback here. It's one thing to be critical, it's another to offer solid ideas for potential improvement. <3

I am glad you mentioned the splashing, since this design will not be very suitable for rough ocean conditions. You were lucky to have a smooth first journey. The bow needs to be higher and also the shape of the hull needs to be curved upwards like a banana, with a straight pipe design it is not possible to achieve good rough weather capabilities. <br>But the idea is good 👍⚓

Great concept. The idea presents a shallow draft boat, very boyant, capable of handling rough water, and very repairable. If these pontoons were sold to custom order, it would be practical to build a catamaran pontoon boat for a very affordable price.

great idea and design! I would say you should try using 2 pvc pontoons as the main part of the boat.. it would float higher above the water and the outboard motors would propel the boat easier and with less wake/splashing like the splashing seen at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TiVGiIs_57o&t=305">5:05</a>..

Brilliant engineering, beautiful design, bear in mind that it is foolish to call a boat "unsinkable", not because of superstition but because anything can be broken, even HDPE which works very well, but only within certain temperature ranges.

Curious how it handles rough seas.

absolutely awesome! i agree filling with a foam would truly make them unsinkable. the current design is a massive step up from a fiberglass boat but you'd only need two holes worn or poked into the pontoon for it to start filling. given the amount of wear this boat would likely see, it would happen eventually. but even then your looking at years of good use and patching them really well is certainly possible to.

We need more people like this thinking 'outside the box'. Best luck with this project.
