For years we have been interested in things that float on water and have owned everything from a canoe to a 24 foot cabin cruiser that we had in Florida.
Now we own the smallest craft ever....a nine foot inflatable boat.
And to power this balloon on steroids we ordered this electric trolling motor.
I doubt we will do much water skiing with this bag of air, but that was not the intention of the purchase.
Many times while camping we wish we had a small boat to explore some of the coves on small lakes. This looked like just the ticket to achieve that need to see what is around the next bend.
We wanted something that was light and did not take up much space in the camper. Deflated, the boat is about two feet long and a foot wide weighing only 20 pounds.
It has a 600 pound weight capacity so we are well within limits.
Sue is making us pirate outfits, so we should be rather intimidating out there on the open water!
Now if I could just figure out how to christen the boat with the ceremonial bottle of cheap champagne!
