Thanks to Tubi for sponsoring this project! It cost a lot to build lol

I built the world’s first Tesla powered mini jet boat. This was one of the hardest projects I’ve done so far, and it helped me learn a lot about high voltage electric vehicles. From welding the hull, to modifying the motor & batteries, this project took some serious engineering to pull off. Episode 2 will be up soon, where we install a bigger motor, and do a GOOD lake test!

Thanks to the OG's with us from the beginning, we finally got it done. This first episode was filmed almost 3 years ago! There are 4 total episodes coming out weekly this month!

I can't imagine what you and Grind Hard Plumbing Co could build if you guys worked together. Here's to hoping you guys do a collab in the future

I like how other youtubers would make a 10 episode series about welding the boat but you built the whole boat in 1 min of the video lol

Feels so weird to WD content which is so slapstick, and then to see this is his builder... One of the smartest people i have seen

This was sick. The production quality caught me by surprise big time. The zen music and just chill build clips were great. So many build creators like to half complain / overcomplicate details just to do it. But you spared the audience and made it supremely enjoyable.
