:envious:

Wonder what it would take to make a teardrop sort of canal boat. Too bad there are so few places to live like that .

Teardrop on a pontoon deck would be simple.

This is a beautiful picture, isn't it?

I think it is more a state of mind thing than anything else.

mr. droid,

I've been down this path before..... boat... .floating trailer..... water camper. It is more about building a dream or was that dreaming a build 8)

On the other hand.... maybe I need to build a mid 1930's retro standy.... hmmm yeah, that's it. :lol:

There are boats like that in Scotland and England that you can rent and go up and down the canals. There are a lot of castles that you can stop and visit and markets that sell fresh veggies along the banks. A real fun way to go.

the plans that I have call it a Wanderbug trailer from 1946 March popular science
as for that picture we might have to get it enlarged and build a fake window for our trailers jus so we can imagine we are there

Never say "pull the trigger" to a guy with the both barrels under his chin. :lol:

I do like your style Doug. Breadloaf..... I started baking sourdough last October and managed to gain 25 lbs by January. No more breadloaf for me for a while :R
