- HA do I have the ride for you! Go to a local feed store or wherever you can get this for cheap. Get a plastic watering trough big enough for what you need. SIZE WILL VARY. On the outside of the trough, attach sealed and empty milk jugs or hot oil cans (whatever) until you get the bouyancy right. I used this "boat" for several summers as a kid and caught a pisload of fish with it. **The easy way to attached the jugs is to tie a rope very tightly around the outside that goes all the way around the tub. Then just tie the jugs to that rope. Piece of cake.
- find anything that is bouyant and that will support your weight strap other bouyant objects to it
- go to local truck stop and get a big rig inner tube rig a mesh seat in it, and you have a redneck float tube
- if you want to be really basic some barrels some string and some wood Good luck !
