a real redneck barge

[oops!]

noklu and i were on kalamalka lake at kekuli bay the other weekend......i only got two shots...

this guy has been tryin to float this for about a month

hes running a 7.5 merc on this thing....i thought he was building a dock at first....but then it started to take shape.

yes....that is a skate board ramp on the back .....

the motor barly pushed that thing....it was about 8 feet of beam.....and over 20 long......when the waves came...it shifted up and down like a snake...you can see the smile in the deck in the above shot....i hope he didnt get caught in the bigger water that came up later that week !

There's even room for a porta-potty!. Hopefully the outboards not running, otherwise, the fella on the transom? stands a good chance of getting his toenails clipped.

I'd be concerned that they were planning on lighting illegal fireworks off that thing if I got too close to it.

"Hey light this high-powered explosive over there by the 5 gallon gas tank for me will ya?"
