FAMILY CAMPING ARTICLES
How do you currently travel rivers? Do you walk along the bank or maybe travel in a canoe? Both of these ways obviously work, but neither on of them is as good as the way I found recently. It's called an inflatable pontoon boat. They go by different names, but basically they are a personal boat that when deflated can fit in your trunk, and is the best way to travel a river in my opinion. Whether you're fishing, taking pictures, hunting, or just plain relaxing an inflatable pontoon boat works great.
So what is an inflatable pontoon boat anyway? Is it like those monstrosities that you see at your local lake, that carry fifteen people on a platform? No not at all. The inflatable pontoon boats that I'm referring to are basically personal boats. They carry one to two people. Basically they are a seat (or two) mounted on two inflatable pontoons. For traveling down a small river or stream, they are hard to beat. A personal pontoon boat is perfect for fishermen, hunters, photographers, or any outdoor enthusiasts.
The ease of use and portability make these boats much more practical than say a canoe or raft, which can both be a pain in the butt to haul around from place to place. In most cases a personal pontoon boat will easily fit in the trunk of a car, so hauling it around is simple and easy. Then when you're done with your outdoor activity, simply deflate the pontoons and return the boat to your trunk. What could be more convenient?
As I eluded to earlier, whether you enjoy fishing, hunting, photography, or just enjoy being in nature, a personal pontoon boat is the way to go. The silence that is experienced while floating down an un-crowded river is hard to beat. In my opinion, spending time floating down a river in this way will cure whatever it might be that ails you. There's no better way to clear your head than floating carefree down a river.
