Page of 1. Filtered by:. Previous template Next. Hull Plans for an Airboat , PM. Never mind anything I said in the "Bending Aluminium" thread about building a boat. Part of the conversation that brought up my friend's idea was that I was talking about building an airboat for myself.

I've been looking for a shallow draft boat for some time now. And while I am tight on funds. You never know when things can change, and I like to plan for the future. Near where I live, we have a river that for a long time was concidered basically a sewage canal. And for all intensive purposes dead. Things changed in the late 80's when for 3 consecutive years we had massive flooding.

All this flooding pushed all the junk out of the river bed. Our states DNR took advantage of this and began a major restocking program as well as extensive restrictions on local communities and industry preventing future pollution.

What this means to me as a fisherman 20 years later. The fishing now is outstanding, if you can get to the sweet spots. During a year when there's average rain fall, many parts of the river is only ' foot deep. The honey holes where the big walleye, sauger, pike, smallies, and even muskies hang out are mixed in areas that are difficult to get to.

I've heard many horror stories on a local fishing forum that I belong to from guys trying to get to these spots with thier jon boats and using a trolling motor. Only to have thier trolling motors get beat up. Then reicently I seen a show with guys running around the everglades in one of those airboats.

And that's what made me start to think of building one of these. Further research on the net, and I found out about a class of boat described as "mini-airboats" which use small hp horizonal shaft eninges. Why aluminium. Having asked about this on another forum, a person who also fishes a simlar type river in a different state, pointed out that had he gone with a wood or fiberglass hull, he'd of destroyed it by now.

The aluminium has held up for him much better. So, now I'm on the hunt for plans for a mini airboat hull that uses aluminium. I have googled plans on the net, and have come up with only one comany that sells plans for a mini airboat.

Those plans are for a wooden hulled boat. I was hoping maybe someone on here may have already built an airboat or might know where I can get plans from for an aluminium hull.

Thanks Jax. Tags: None. In the team took delivery of an 18' Panther flat bottom air boat and a 16' Avon rigid hull inflatable boat with a 90 horse power outboard motor. The air boat is housed at our new station 77 and the R. The air boat is a 18'8" long, 8'4" wide, 9' high painted aluminum boat. The Aluminum Boat Building Forum 90 sheets allow the boat to easily slide over mud, grass, tulles, wood, and rocks with minimal damage. It is powered by a Chevy V-8 h.

The boat can achieve speeds of mph on the water and over 50 mph on the mud. Comment Post Cancel. Jaxon, Have you ever looked at the plans for an airboat? I haven't done a search, but I suspect with the number of airboats used in the FL Everglades that there will be information available.

An airboat would make a lousy fishing platform for a number of reasons: 1. Talk about pissing off your fellow fishermen. Inefficient Propulsion at low speeds. Tremendous above deck obstructions. Maneuverability in tight spots--they slip steer vs having a skeg or a keel.

I could go on and on You're better off for your intended use looking to the Pacific Northwest where they have experience building heavy duty Commercial flat bottom aluminum skiffs. Drop a jet drive outboard Yamaha makes one on the back and you've got a tough, shallow draft, fishing boat that will go places a standard prop driven outboard won't go because of potential damage to the exposed prop.

I don't think you've done enough homework to be heading for the plans stage. Those big airboats are nice. I'm lookin more for a mini airboat.

And yes I've been lookin for days for plans on the net. I even joined two airboat forums asking for other places. I'm kind of partial to the 2 seater from airboat fun. These concidered mini airboats becuase they don't use huge engines.

But most are 40hp or less in power. Hulls are typically from ' long and anywhere from ' wide. These mini airboats are being built specifically for what I described. To gain acess to areas that normal boats can't get. Typically hauling fishmen, gear, trolling motor and assosicated electronics.

That would really hurt the budget. In the meantime, I'm gonna check out those NW boats that were suggested. Now, I know this isn't a boat Aside from additional bracing, what is special about an airboat hull vs a typical johnboat? If you aren't putting a lot of thrust out, then I'd think you could strap a motor and prop to the back of one of them.

They seem to sell pretty cheap and it wouldn't cost much to put a piece of poly-something on the bottom to protect it. I do agree that even a small motor would make a lot of racket.

I don't think I'd want to be fishing with one of them around. I don't think so. Still building my new old truck - see the progress! Actually, you could make your pontoons and put them in place of Hotfoots tires. Then you could steer! Mr Jimi. I have a Jon boat made by Lowe, they call it a "big jon" and it's 19' long X 7' wide, many of my friends said it would good with an airplane engine on it,, airboat style.

Yes, both myself and other's have asked about using a jon boat. But to keep in the mini class or smaller engines, you want to have a hull that's around ' long. That one boat is 19' long right? That's why it would require a car engine, or small plane engine to get going. The smaller jon boats don't have the width to get up on plane as a wider boat does. Word about noise and fishing.

Yes a 2 cycle motor is gonna be like fishing next to a lawn mower. NOT GOOD, that's why once you find a deep hole with your depth dectector, you shut down the prop motor and then drop your trolling motor down into the safer much deeper hole.

Or you can just drop anchor and cast into the hole and use no motor. With advice I've recieved from the two airboat forums I'm on, I've decided to go ahead and order the plans from airboat fun. This is a deck over design, so your deck would also be plywood as well. Basically you're building a large sealed box and one end has a slight angle to it so it can cut through the water.

Admittedly building a hull from wood will be heavier then if it can be done in aluminum. I've seen pictures of one of these boats being made. From what I can tell the framing looks to be 12" on center going both ways.

The builder did add plywood between the bottom and top frames, I sappose for added support. I'm just curious, and this is where I could use some suggestions.
