I would also make the floating surface area wider than the standing area, thereby giving you greater stability and resistance to tipping. But who cares, really?! The craft looks like a blast to be on as is! 😎

That's really cool! I was searching for a way to build a rope drawn barge to cross our river but I like this raft better. I can always put eye bolts on either side of the raft roof lines and go back and forth that way, disconnecting when I want to explore the whole river. Nice video! I love that your family got involved. Great job kids!!

@rogerghirawoo2493 5 жыл бұрын

Great project for both yourself and the kids to enjoy together, and great fun to sail together. i am a heavy set person so my thinking is that I would need to increase the buoyancy and general stability of the craft(possibly with side strapped Pontoons . Not to detract from the fun , but I would also add a trawling motor , DC Powered with a Solar Power Inverter system, and really go out there undeterred and fish for a whole day.

@MiaRosenbloom 3 жыл бұрын

This is awesome! Thank you for making this video, you've given me inspiration to build my own raft! I plan on using your design, minus the table in the middle. I wanna make mine big enough for my boyfriend & I to go camping on, in the middle of a near by creek. I'll need space for a queen/double sleeping mat & sleeping bag, a cooler, and an area to sit & dry off. Also, I plan to drape fairy lights (white Christmas lights) over top of the raft, and around the poles.

you should make one that is about five times the size and could have a BBQ and hammock and a tarpaulin for a roof so its dry when it rains. you could anchor it in the middle of the lake ans use your raft you have already made to row out to it. you could set up a tent and camp on it.
