How do you keep the freezer powered?

Never seen a boat like that. Thanks for sharing.

From everything I have read in your forum, it seems you have been planning for a long time, and have it down to a T. It is hard not to be jealous. Good planning. Think of all of us house bounds when you are on the road!

I plug it in when I get to the campground. There is an exterior plug on the RV. That's where I stow all my salmon & halibut. Closed it will stay frozen for 2 days.

Now if I can just figure out a way to out fish Vrai.

You have thought out everything.
Wishing you both lots of fun and exciting times.

It's been a few years of trial and error. The first long trip I tried to take the boat assembled. This way the parts would all be together and wouldn't take up needed space. But since the boat isn't 100% rigid, it was hard to tie down. So that idea got dumped pretty quick.

I often see how other campers utilize different things. No sense in reinventing the wheel. Since space is limited it's important to make good use of the space without becoming the Beverly Hillbillies.

I highly recommend it, especially if storing it is an issue. I know 1 other person on the forum has the same type of boat. They are very popular with RVers due to their compact size. Best part is that it fits in the bed of my truck and I can launch and recover it by myself. I've caught a lot of different species of fish from that boat.

That is a crazy boat. What is the brand? Where did you buy it? I think I might want one for fishing.

I'm pretty sure that won't happen!

Yeah, you know for damn straight that won't happen.

It's called a porta-bote. After doing some research it seemed to be the best fit for me. It's pretty light. I ordered it online. The boat comes in 4 sizes. 8, 10, 12 & 14 feet models. Comes with 2 paddles. I got 2 swivel seats plus an anchor, landing net, fish finder, trolling motor & gas engine. In for a penny, in for a pound.
