Re: RV site for Houseboaters
Hi Travelcraft,
Thanks for the response, right now we are in North Florida but will be going north in a few weeks.
What I have in mind may not work and maybe you can tell me why, because of the high cost of house boats I was thinking of building my own and here is what I had in mind, I see a lot of tire places that can't get rid of there old tires and they still hold air so I was thinking if I got those free and put them on a rim and air them up and then put a empty rim in between each full tire and did this the width I wanted my flotation device for my trailer to set on, and ofcourse I would have row after row of these the length of the trailer.
What I have in mind is running a bolt through each of the 5 lug holes and torquing them down then I have planned to run a PVC pipe through where the axle would go and fill it with Styrofoam and connect them all together and make an additional out rigger also that would run the out side lenght of the houseboat.
the boat you are talking about that you used to own is it have pontoon flotations? Is the boat aluminum,wood or steel? and if you have any pictures from when you owned it I would be interested in seeing them. Thanks again Jim,alias Redneck house boat builder lol. :clown:
