Best Inflatable Boat | Stryker Hunter Jet 420 | Living Off Grid - Boat Access Only - My New Garden is Starting! Black Fish Hollow is an 8 Acre property in British Columbia, Canada. The property is BOAT ACCESS ONLY. NicHolistic and I bought a used in-board boat which has a small living quarters on board but it's a powerful gas guzzler! This Inflatable Boat from Styker Boats in British Columbia just barely "sips" gas and uses about 5% of the fuel our larger "Tuk Tuk" boat uses! The Stryker Boat will be our primary mode of transportation as well as our companion for whale watching, scuba diving, free diving, fishing, recreation, and exploration! #garden #gardening #offgrid #permaculture #backyardgarden #boat #boating Stryker Hunter Jet 420 Instagram: StrykerBoats KZfaq: bit.ly/2TzM2d2 strykerboats.com For over nearly 10 years I grew a fruit tree, permaculture, garden, and native edible plant, herb, and raised bed garden food forest. You can still watch all the garden videos of my old desert garden in Arizona. I was born in British Columbia and I have returned to the Rain Forests of British Columbia to a "Raw Land" property to grow my 1st FULL EDIBLE FOOD FOREST Off Grid on a wilderness property. This climate is temperate and coastal, rarely seeing snow in the winter and highs in the 80's (30 Celsius) in the summer. It is a rare microclimate that spans from gardening zone 7-9. The property is 8 acres and completely overgrown, mostly with conifer trees. This area is a verifiable rain forest and situated in the Southwestern-most tip of the Canadian "Great Bear Rain Forest". NicHolistic (www.KZfaq.com/HolisticNicole) and I will be learning about edible seaweeds, edible native plants, edible mushrooms, and many other edible native trees/plants as we attempt to Build a Yurt, Draw Our Energy Clean, Live Off the Grid, and Grow an Epic Superfoods Garden and Fruit Tree Orchard. We will also have a lot of changes coming so get ready.

Excellent video! A few hints that may be helpful: 1. A long shank lock thru the holes on the motor mount screws will not only deter theft but more importantly keep them from loosening from vibration and the pounding of waves to much so the motor doesn't take a swim. 2. if your going to use the kill lanyard, attach it to you. If you where to say hit a submerged log and get flipped out with it looped around your wrist you may go flying one way and the kill lanyard may go flying in the other direction and the motor wont start without it. 3. I never untie until the motor is running and warmed up. When you drift out it may not start, and with a little wind it might cause an unnecessary drama. 4. The fuel line should snap on without using the release. Listen for the click so you know that you have a good connection. I have run boats to the size of mega yachts but the most fun is to be had on the smallest ones. Red skies at night to you skipper!

After we have the boat in order, rain-proof garage, and Yurt completed....we can then start clearing and building the fruit tree orchard and garden bed center!

Jake, when installing the outboard and tightening the screws down you’ll notice holes in both handles of each screw. Point them both inward so they point towards each other. Use a master lock and thread it in the two holes. This keeps the screws from vibrating loose during normal use. Don’t want that beauty to dip in the sea. One last thing, read up on the maintenance for salt water, it can be pretty harsh on outboards vs fresh water. Enjoying the new adventure videos.

Port is Left, Starboard is Right just FYI. Cool boat man. I need to order one.

Wow... what a beautiful place to live ... how awesome!

Jake, it’s so amazing to be watching y’all give everything your best and I am truly looking forward to seeing Blackfish come together!

Wow how Beautiful, You two chose a choice place.hearing the geese in the background.

Hey Jake and Nicole. So cool that you guys got a Stryker boat. I have one and love it. I have a tip for you. I would recommend when idling your van try to get the rpms up to 1000-1100. This will prevent wet stacking. When you idle a diesel for long periods it doesn't create enough heat in the cylinder for a complete burn. Nothing good comes from that. When you have the heat on in the van you are taking away even more heat from the engine. In the summer high idle isn't required but in the winter it is recommended. I doubt your van has high idle so you can just cut a piece of wood to wedge between the front of the drivers seat and the gas pedal. This will also bring up the voltage in your alternator to help charge all your electronic devices. Obviously make sure you don't bump the transmission shifter into gear when doing this.

I’m excited to watch this journey unfold. Can’t wait for the building of the yurt! Of course the water transportation is incredibly important and loved watching the boat come alive. Thank you for sharing this with us.

The beauty of the shore line is just as I remember when my husband and I took our cruise many years ago from Vancouver to Juneau and back. Loved it then and now get to relive it with you two. What a joy after all these years. Good luck in your dream. Keep it alive. Don't let anyone take it from you or your joy in sharing your experiences both the good and the bad they will make you stronger in the end.

You are really great...A true inspiration.....Your words are very encouraging..... Please keep doing the goed work and keep motivating....God bless you always and forever!!!!

Port=left=even #'s (easy way to remember... they are all four letters) Starboard=right=odd #'s=green light. Red light is port side (easy way to remember... port wine is red) 🤓👍

Its blessing to watch you blessed😃

Oh, and I too got divorced last year and had to leave all my gardens and fruit trees behind. It sucks but even more exciting that I get to build something better this time

Beautiful. SIMPLY... Beautiful! Thank you!

You guys are amazing!!! I can't wait for your next series of videos !!!👍🌹🤩 best of good luck !!

Very happy for you both!

This is so exciting I thought I was set for the live I need to check the time difference I’m n South Carolina originally from Harlem NY raised n the Bronx! One of my Sons want to move to Canda Last name Martin! Like WHET! Maybe a confirmation! Hmmm! I have learned so much from your channel with gardening n much more thank you so much!!!!

I am so stoked! I live in Seattle and couldn't do some of the stuff you did in your desert gardening videos. It'll be awesome to see what you do in a climate similar to mine. Pacific Northwest rocks, and you inspire me so much!

Such a peaceful ending to your video and day! Congrats. 2 days done! Keep it going and thx for sharing.

Looks beautiful and great job getting the boat together your first time! Can't wait to see your habitat in person!!

You two are living the dream! Congratulations!!

Hi Jake, I was very impressed to see you assemble your inflatable on a cold day. At my age I would have needed a box of Bandaids to have put my Avon together. Cheap insurance is to tie a short rope to the motor bracket and transom before removing or replacing the motor. Very good job on your video!!!

It’s gorgeous! Good luck you two!

It’s So Beautiful and you look so Happy

Love you Babe!!!

Love the new channel style everyone is coming out with a 2.0 of a fresh start to there channel amazing, love it. Peace and love, God Bless, and namaste.

Thought this was pretty legit until 4:25 and saw the pants... you can't trust anybody's life choices if they wear pants like that.

Looking forward to your next video... watching you from PHOENIX!!

I live in the UK and many of us here work a whole year looking forward to a holiday in the sun, usually Spain but for me, THIS video represents my idea of a dream destination. Thanks for sharing your life style with us.

I’m in love. More more more

Nice jeans!!!!! Glad your back to working towards gardening!

OMG! What a thrill! Thanks for sharing!

Wow 👍 ... This is amazing being able 2 watch you build a life out of an uncleared forest ! ... Good luck guys... 💙 .

So awesome to see you back on KZfaq regularly. Still looking forward to the travel videos, but this new adventure will be great to see as you build it!

well Jake you sure were having fun looks cold though have fun and stay safe

Wow, I seen all that seaweed which is great for your garden. I am so happy for you guys living your best life.

The scenery reminds me of where I live in Ontario. We live on the water on boat from spring until fall. We have the same picturesque nature surounded by msny conifer trees. Magical .

Freaking awesome! I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty envious of ya'll right now lol my goal is to have some land in the middle of nowhere Tennessee and live off grid as well. Looking forward to the journey!

I am so freaking jealous of you but I'm quite happy for you I can always live vicariously through you and your videos PS it yourself a tiny would burning stove you'll be happy you did

Fun video! Cracked me up though at 8:55 lol you Canadians and your "cutting tools".

Very cool!!! I wish I could do that with the family. Maybe one day. Loving the videos

Oh my, your new adventure is so many things.... parts are terrifying because it's new and so different but also exciting ... for the same reasons. Nicole honey, I think you will look back some day and go "Jake, I am glad I took the lunge and did this with you." I say this from experience... ran off on an incredible adventure with my honey 20 years ago at age 50. Walked the Appalachian Trail, lived on Lake Chapala Mexico, and traveled the country in a 5th wheel for 6 years. All totally new and different. Good times. Best wishes to both of you and thanks for taking us along for the ride.

Learn me some things. Glad you and Nicole are sharing it all. Thank you for great videos. I am sure it will help us all. Stay warm and safe. Much love. Really nice video! From Limestone, Maine. USA.

Wow! Beautiful, being in nature is so peaceful no matter what the weather is it's a fun challenge. Enjoy.

thank you from turkey, good luck.

I've been watching and following you for a while now I'm excited to follow you through your next journey in life I also plan on getting land and living off the grid and living off the land

This is gonna be my favorite series on youtube, keep them coming please :)

It's so freaking beautiful

I wish I was as resourceful as You are. You know how to build everything!

Live the dream ! I spent 3 hours of my day in traffic today what a waste, I envy you I in a good way ,Jake love you man make it happen !

It’s hard to beat a good inflatable boat. Mine puts me in my happy place. Except for shallow rocky water. That keeps me on edge! So fun, simple, easy to store, tow and launch. We’ve got a 20 hp four stroke, and it just sips fuel. My work has a Stryker down in the Edmonton office. My personal boat I run in Yellowknife is a Mercury Adventure 340. Love zipping along to a secluded spot. Take care out there.

How exciting...thanks!

So impressive! What a place to live, you have so much land!

I think you are doing a pretty good job as a first time boat builder.

Have been watching you for a long time. Never would have thought you would move to the woods. It will be fun too watch I think.

So awesome and exciting!!

Thank you for link to this video Jake 👍🏼

OG tree-ple here. Another fantastic video. Thanks Jake and Nicole for inspiring others. 👍

Nice vid bro. I'm buying a 12 ft inflatable zodiac style and stumbled apon this. I enjoyed watching you put the inflatable together and mount the engine. I also learned a few things from comment section, but at the same time as I'm not on social media it never ceases to amaze me how many ppl find something negative or snarky to say... I never have understood that. Enjoy your adventure!!

the scenery is so beautiful

You are a very lucky couple. That is some beautiful country.

It's so beautiful

This is such a great adventure you two are embarking on! I hope you start adding fish to your diet! I want to see some fishing - ha.

My next video is here! Check it out...It's a good one! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jd-Ka5dputisooE.html

I love your courage to do this! You are an inspiration.

It's so very beautiful!

I bit that place is Beautiful in the Summer

Loving the videos! Amazing!

Hello from Scotland :) Great video, Thank you

Beautiful shots from the water

hey jake, one tip for your cutting board. apply some coatings of tung oil on it. it'll make clean up waaay easier, as it makes the surface waterproof, saving time and water.

Love the boat. Great video !! ❤️❤️❤️

Can't believe you put the motor on the transom while the boat was in the water. I'm glad it worked out. You picked a great outboard.

Thank you guys ,it was an osome tutorial

Pro tip: Start the motor before untying and leaving the dock. Nice boat. Thanks for the unboxing vid.
