Where did the pics go? I built my own as well. It was a fun project and cheaper than a Hobie. It is self priming, has a speed control knob for the pump and has twice as many rod holders as a hobie.
Here's my price breakdown
VITTLES VAULT 40 $18
TSUNAMI 500 PUMP $30
PELICAN CASE $36
SPEED CONTROLLER $12
KUFA SPORT ROD HOLDERS (2) $30
BATTERY $20
UNI SEAL $2
PLUMBING $10
HARDWARE $10
TOTAL $168
