There is definitely a fine line between genius and insanity. He think he may be playing hop-scotch over it.
Nice family.

Congratulations!

I think you won't have to do anything... If he continues to build and test stuff like that, the nature and laws of physics (gravity) will do the job for you.

Well, the guy definitely has a lots of courage. On that side you can be proud of him.

My mom always said the difference between friends and relatives is that you get to pick your friends but you're stuck with your relatives.

I like it! Some times, we are way too serious about our boats; worrying about nuances of design and aesthetics. This is good, strictly for laughs

Maybe Landlubber's nephew is inspired by these professional fishermen . . . . .

‘‘ Coracles on the River Teifi, West Wales 1972. The two people pictured are John (forefront) and Will Davies of Cenarth - the last two legitimate Coracle fishermen in Cenarth. - - - They carried their boats (and their fish) home on their backs. ’’

Last thing I would like to see from nephew on YouTube . . . . . . . . .

Cheers,

I like it when people do something reasonably sensible for the sheer hell of it. It reminds you that not everyone is a raving halfwit.

The bath tub didn't sink.
It was floating level.

Pretty good effort.
