I have just noticed this as I've not been looking at my computer due to pressure of work. Paddling on the Kennet and Avon Canal last year  I was thinking of my ideal raid boat and came to the conclusion that a punt might be a good bet as you get the maximum space and stability in the minimum size boat. Also there is a large flat area suitable for sleeping on.The idea of not having to look for camping sites certainly apeals.  In addition to this it should be easy and relatively cheap to build. How are you thinking of propelling it? Are you going to punt it or paddle it or do you think it would be possible to row it? I willbe retiring in 11 weeks and two days so should have more time to play.
