Shoal Tent – SmithFly

Interesting concept!!! I see an opportunity to make some money with these. Outfitters could set these up on high mountain lakes during the summer. It would be like those Caribbean vacation hutts built over the water, but for people who like the mountains better than the beach. What ya think???

Yah I do not see it the way you are. I would not want to be on one of those for any period of time myself. Hutt's built over the water have a solid floor. Pretty sure this just a covered type raft.

Interesting idea. I do wonder what happens when the wind blows and waves pick up? Ever been in an ice hut screaming across the lake when the wind pick up to 40 mph or so? Not a great feeling.

This guy could have used a floating tent

Can you imagine waking up to this? Ha!

I suppose if you have never been up north you maybe don't realize some tides are 26 feet.......

Most wilderness areas specifically limit how close you can camp from water sources, I'm not so sure that camping directly in the water source would be looked upon nicely. Lol

Sleepwalkers would have to wear life jackets....I wonder if the floor is clear?

Looks like a really good way to soak and /or lose a lot of gear. No thank you.
