I built a boat (from scrap)

[TANSTAAFL]

Awesome project @swampratt ! It may look a bit strange, but it will float way better than any boat I'd make!

I see what you did there.

I'm no expert but it looks pretty seaworthy to me....but still you might wanna take a bucket or two along just in case.

What outboard is going on this, perhaps:

Grew up in Michigan... So my boat humor may be a little off the wall.

I believe that may be the ugliest new boat I have ever seen.

The Titanic was a very prestigious and beautiful vessel. Look how that turned out lol

Why is the theme from Gilligan’s Island running through my head?

Hey, if yo start with junk, it can't possibly get any junkier!

Birchbark over light wood frame, hide or waxed canvas over light wood frame, caulked lathe wood over light wood frame, all worked fine. If your frame is sound, she oughta work.

If it doesn't work for designed purpose, would likely be good for a viking funeral.

I love Viking funerals!

Barbed wire and duct tape has served me well in the past, but I would get in that boat without a floatation device lol
