How I Put a REAL Jet Engine on a Kayak

1200F Degree exhaust! Screaming at 160 decibels. Rotating at 121 THOUSAND RPM'S! THIS, is the real deal. An airplane jet engine! Just, on a smaller scale. PERFECT, for a ....kayak? Why not?
This video documents all the steps I went through to install this little fiery beast. It only weighs 1.90kg or 4.19lbs! Yet this tiny monster creates 45 pounds of thrust. Thats a good amount of power for the new Pelican Catch PWR 100.
I know Pelican designed this kayak to accept a motor, but I may have taken it too far this time. As my life becomes more and more busy, with a business to run and a KZfaq channel to maintain and now projects like THIS! I might be letting my life get a little too complicated. And this crazy kayak might just scare the heck out of the fish that I have been ignoring lately.
Something tells me that I should've just put a trolling motor on this kayak like Pelican intended. But it's too late for that now.

@conanruisi 3 жыл бұрын

Why do you think they call him the hacksmith? It’s because he can’t smith anything unless it makes him look like a massive hack.

Yeah, he copied the lightsaber idea from ALEX LAB without credit and and just put more expensive components on it that he could afford.

@quakxy_dukx 2 жыл бұрын

@@theyeetus1428 alex lab made an electrolysis powered hydrogen flame lightsaber whereas the hacksmith made a laminar flow propane (I think) torch protosaber. Also you can’t really say someone’s copying someone else when they were both inspired by a massive film franchise

He's truly something isn't he? I went and visited a week ago and he did the same for me. Showed me around, went through the build with me. Even set off the fire suppression system with me a bit too close. :D (startling when you're not expecting it) I just need more stickers for the other side of the car and my yak.

He's a heck of a guy, gave me 3 stickers I would have bought a dozen I'm going to try to get down there once more before he sets sail.

I find myself coming back to your videos every now and then, still entirely entertained by the projects you've built. I've been subscribed for quite a long time, the first video I watched was you making custom PVC pontoons on one of your kayaks in which looking back, was done 7 years ago! (I was 15 at the time, now 22) thanks for the inspiration and giving me the courage to work on my own boat projects! Hope you are doing well in these crazy times.
