  • Modifications have begun on the barrel camping raft and it won't be long before it's all fully completed! Michael has been whipping up drawings and they have a CNC machine and shop close to our place. Very excited to see how the boat comes along.

    My dad would have loved these bits of behind-the-scenes, the odd connections you make along the way, and bartering bamboo for design and construction of your boat shelter? Would have amused the heck out of him. Thank you for sharing, Steve!

    This is the most Canadian thing ever. One minute you’re hanging around waiting for the grocery store to open, the next you’re making friends and trading bamboo roofing for milled aluminum pieces. Can’t wait to see the New And Improved Hunker Yacht in action.

    What a sweet step 2 surprise ! I am so excited for the barrel raft, I hope it becomes an annual trip down the river with crazy neighbour. The idea of just floating down the river, picking a camp spot. Staring at the night sky with a friend. It is the most appealing for me of all Steve's adventures. Oh, and the culvert, don't know why, just love a culvert.

    The solution to your weight problem is an inflatable tow raft. Rig up a raft with gear/supplies secured with a cover and tie downs...or at least take one as backup to reduce weight if needed and as a safety backup.
