  • Crazy neighbor and I have been working quite a bit on getting ready to launch probably tomorrow sometime, sadly the truck camper (half built) was destroyed in a wind storm, so there is going to be another project to occupy our time this winter.

    *Gotta be honest guys. These aren't the best of times for me. Hell, it's not the best of times for anyone. But I have the biggest smile on my face every time I see Steve. I freakin love your channel man. It's like the ultimate anti-depressant. Also, I always love the greetings from Crazy Neighbor. Keep up the great work* I don't care if you're camping in a Wal-Mart parking lot, the woods, campgrounds, highway median, or a rest stop. You are why we watch. You're an awesome dude. I speak for all of us. I say that with confidence.

    I don't know if there's still time before you go, but if you can fit a rudder behind the propeller (fixed to the prop shaft above, so it turns with the direction of the motor) it'll give you much more steering control. Good luck on your quest!

    This may get lost in the comments and thats fine but hopefully you'll actually get to see it. Just wanna say man that I'm 25 years old and on the 5th of August my son was born (my first child) and then 13 days later my fiance passed away from complications from the pregnancy. Its been a hard few weeks but your videos as simple as they may seem on the outside give me something to look forward to and offer a few minutes of enjoyment in these dark times. Not all hero's wear capes some are just regular dudes that like to camp. Keep it up Steve.

    I'm all for this, BUT... The straps at the front, where the cones joins the tubes of the pontoons, need to have a shim or some kind of pressure dispersal. Do Not Tighten the straps with little pressure in the pontoons.
    First pressurize, then secure the straps.
    I hope you are bringing LARGE paddles, that outboard looks a little anemic.
    I know I'm sounding like grandma, just like your vids and wan't you back for more.
    Cheers from Montreal. Cant wait for the Christening!!! 🍺2

    • @tombulger

    I found Steve in April a little after all the orders to hunker down were given. I was planning to go camping for the first time in over 30 years and was just browsing videos on camping and tent reviews. So i see this video and some guy is trying to camp stealthily at a patch of woods by a rest stop. I was pretty much hooked after that. I did get out to camp once in july before the fires started. Dont rhink ill make it again until next year. But sure will live vicariously (did i spell that rigjt) thru Steve until then. Well, and after that too!!

Your channel inspires me to do camping. Today i‘m packing for three nights camping. It‘s a campsite in Switzerland, 1.5 hours from where i live in the jurassic mountains. Cooking on fire is what i look forward to the most, and some step twos of course. Maybe i make a video and upload it on my channel as my first ever video 😁 so i don‘t expect much. Thanks for the good ideas and for showing us that we can do a lot with improvisation.
