camping in a canoe

[@adventurenomad2331]

I'm Canadian and I've never even heard of anybody cooking or sleeping in a canoe. That was an excellent stealth camp. Keep the content coming thanks.

[@MrBrentles]

Couldnt do it in a kayak. Love my canoe

[@affalaffaa]

When the worlds leading canoeists have not seen the like done before, then you know you're on to something. The funniest thing for me is docking right next to the 303. He clearly doesn't have to but the hum of the traffic leads to a good nights sleep, by all accounts. Always entertaining vids Billy, keep it up.

[@johnnyT428]

Here's my coastal overnight stay in a canoe kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZjFl2qIdsypY5o

[@offcamping]

Thanks mate appreciate it we don't have the amazing with us of Canada but we do have English classics as the fish finger sandwich

[@CRAZYCANUCKTV]

I'm Canadian aswell, used to do this frequently

[@YessayAsha]

Every time you post I’m just glad to see you’re alive brother billy. Keep the crazy ideas flowing good sir!!

[@offcamping]

Yep still here mate thanks for watching

[@James-gf9jl]

Next challenge is to find a roundabout in the middle of a river.

[@offcamping]

Ill get hunting. Thanks for watching mate

[@jamesfriery]

Not as stupid as it sounds.

[@kayaksnorkeluk8272]

Lots of lakes with islands on them.

[@cityzens634]

@@kayaksnorkeluk8272 There’s a loch in Scotland with an island in it and in that island is another loch with an island in it.

[@sifromearth]

Thanks for an amazing video yet again buddy. The great thing about your channel is that you are just you and do not play things up. Peace out to you and keep the good content coming Billy🙂

[@offcamping]

Thanks mate appreciate it

[@ArooDoggo]

Both me and my husband were sitting here going “THE SANDWICH!!! GRAB THE SANDWICH!!! THE SANDWICH!!!!!” When it was resting on your leg 😂

[@Sanctuarysurvival]

Yeh and me !

[@heathen-greaser]

Haha me too

[@PlNKUHOSHI]

I would buy some camo net, cut it out to the shape of the canoe, and make it cover it completely for the night. And stay far away from the foot path under the bridge for safety. Great video as always.

[@offcamping]

Thanks mate. Yeah I thought about it but just in case didn't want a big covered

[@JosephStealin]

Tip I use a 10 litre Jerry can as ballast, that way when I’m finished with it I can just empty it out then it’s light to haul around, plus I have plenty of drinking water on hand. Save carrying that barbell weight. Nice video btw

[@theoldhobbit3640]

10 out of 10 for this one....... cooking and camping in a canoe on the water, great entertainment. Keep up the good work.

[@offcamping]

Thanks mate, appreciate you watching

[@gilesbinyon]

Excellent Billy. You made it look easy, it’s not, but your wild camping and cooking skills are second to none. Cheers 👍

[@ihramanova1294]

I love your videos also Giles

@@ihramanova1294 thx Ihram 👍

[@offcamping]

Thanks Giles mate hope your well

[@Rob8]

You're a braver man than I, frying in a plastic canoe. Cheers, brother. Great video. Thanks.

[@offcamping]

It's a pretty thick canoe. It will take some temperature to burn through lol

[@whoshotdk]

When I see you cook better in a canoe that I do in a kitchen it makes me realize how much my life is one big F. I'm seriously impressed, keep it up mate!

[@offcamping]

Thanks mate appreciate you watching

[@bigkev7349]

Stop worrying about what people think, just keep doing what you enjoy doing.

[@darren25061965]

The vast majority of those people (dog walkers, Horse riders etc) are enjoying what their doing, and probably don`t care what you are doing "to enjoy yourself". Your enjoyment does not infringe upon their enjoyment, so each to his/her own. It`s those who are unable to enjoy themselves, that seek to prevent others from enjoying themselves, that are the problem. The Inland Waterways Authority` are responsible for all rivers and canals, NOT the local council, or the police. Should someone complain you will be long gone by the time a water baliff turns up to inspect your watercraft permit. If one does actually turn up, he/she is not likely to wade into the water to ask for it.

[@wafflesnfalafel1]

thanks for the vid sir - love it. You may be the only person on the planet to make home made fish sticks in a canoe live on camera. :) Cheers.

[@offcamping]

Maybe mate. Thanks for watching. Glad you likes it

[@davidmoore5925]

Another great stealth camp Billy, the only thing missing was the Dueling Banjo's.

[@costanza7379]

Corker of an episode Billy. Definitely one of my favourites! Throwing a heavy weight into the river tied to some rope didn't look suspicious in any way at all! 🤣 Keep them coming please!

[@offcamping]

Haha yeah looked a bit odd

[@timypp2894]

Maybe two bits of wood branch attached to an outboard stabilizer (wood float) once you on the water. Might help moving/getting about in the boat and not tipping over. Still it looks 'fun'... Lol. Keep up the good work mister

[@andrewcrofts531]

Well done Billy, what a cracking camp! I don't think I could have spent the night in the boat like that, not enough room to move for me. Keep safe pal, cheers.

[@simondavey7787]

I love this; you are quickly becoming the European Steve Wallis. This is one I'd love to try!

[@offcamping]

Thanks mate appreciate it

[@tonydean2541]

That was different i must admit, but i enjoyed watching that. Thanks for sharing. Those fish fingers looked so much better than anything you can buy frozen ill be knocking some up soon for sure. in fact i liked them so much i subbed to your channel

[@allaurence1092]

Youre going to start a trend 'camping in canoes'.... You made a great fish finger there, great vlog Billy well done. No1 Camper in the UK.

[@todaysworldjw]

👍 He's having fish fingers for dinner, cool he brought fish fingers. No, wait, he brought fish fillets to fry, hang on, is that flour? What's he beating the eggs for? Oh, so the breadcrumbs will stick to them... So he's making his own fish fingers, nice! Hang on, isn't he sat in a canoe in the middle of the river, yes he is! 😂 Well atleast he doesn't have to try and keep a pan of hot oil steady on the river..... 😳 Love it 😀👍

[@kevinkilcoyne1557]

Easily, easily my favourite bloke from Jersey living in Engerland where wild camping is illegal, producing some of the greatest youtube content ever, I tell you mate, you would love Scotland where I wildcamp every week, kudos to your verve, the most unique content out there, unmissable!

[@offcamping]

Thanks mate very kind of you to say

[@krell2130]

Always a treat to get a new upload, thanks Billy, hope it's a good one... Spolier: They're all good! Edit: Loved it, one of the best vids yet, nice one Billy : )

[@offcamping]

Thanks mate. Hope you like this one

[@MrBrentles]

You know its 5 star gourmet when youre using your leg as a table. Awesome video

[@offcamping]

My award is in the post

[@DavidMoul-c7x]

Cool video! I can’t believe how much stuff you brought for dinner, that was a gourmet meal!!!

[@Mottercar]

No.1 stealthcamper UK

[@offcamping]

Thanks mate 😸

[@seanoriordan]

Your a legend man! The way you put that meal together, and they say men can't multitask lol. Minor criticism, I would have left the three fish fingers in the sambo, spread them out and eat the fourth on its own. Great content, I look forward to more man. Take care and keep it up!

[@patchso]

@Sean O'Riordan: Good point regarding the fish fingers! I was seriously begining to wonder wether all 4 would fit onto the bread. Thankfully, disaster averted :-)

[@offcamping]

Next time I sort it out. Thanks for watching mate

[@davidashmore3929]

I would be a nervous wreck camping in a canoe Billy. It seems the river was determined, to not let you enjoy your fish finger sandwich. Thank you again for your content.

[@offcamping]

Yep thank God then no rapids

[@dentydent6423]

Legend! On the river cooking fish fingers from scratch was awesome but then to camp overnight was another level! Your ideas are ground breakers,others can dare to follow and eat soggy sandwiches as their canoe floats past them.

[@offcamping]

Haha thanks mate glad you enjoyed it

[@jimhud407]

That’s amazing how you cooked that in there ! What a legend ..

[@offcamping]

Thanks for watching mate

[@philipsimkins1000]

Billy, have you ever considered stealth camping in Milton Keynes? We have loads of roundabouts here. You’ll be in heaven.

[@offcamping]

Yeah I seen

[@morgulblade4]

Really thought you were off for a swim there Billy when you got on the sleeping pad. Good vid man, keep pushing those boundaries, but stay safe.

[@offcamping]

Thanks mate, appreciate you watching

[@kronosbystander]

Amazing fish fingers with proper panko breadcrumbs, they look delicious.

[@malcolmrowe5031]

I love home made fish in breadcrumbs with tartare sauce, unfortunately on Boracay island you can't get tartare sauce, I have to send it from UK to there when I'm back in UK, got half a dozen jars waiting for me once I can finally return after all the cough restrictions end!

Home made fish fingers in a canoe? Impressive stuff mate, watching that means I’ve got no excuse for not doing them at home 😂 Cheers Billy 👍

[@offcamping]

Give them a go mate

[@TheCraigy83]

making home made fish fingers on a gas stove balancing in a canoe with like a square foot room to work is impressive

[@simongee8928]

I packed up kayaking / canoeing a few years back because of the fact that in England & Wales, over 90% of the rivers and waterways are privately owned, unlike in Scotland and pretty much the rest of the world. A sad state of affairs. 🤨

[@offcamping]

Yeah really does suck down here

[@MoreThanJustaCleaner]

[@offcamping]

Haha thanks for watching mate

[@barryhumphries4514]

I think I would rather go further up river to a nice quiet spot. Not next to a busy and noisy road! You could probably rig a small tarp over the canoe to keep you dry. 🤔😉👀

[@BoatBloke]

Great video mate 👍 I’ve been thinking of camping on my dinghy..

[@TheCanadianBeaver]

I am glad you did not have to go to the loo when sleeping in there. I tried it once and it was a complete disaster and became $500 poorer. That fish sandwich looked incredible. All the best to you Billy and always remember to follow your nose!

Thanks, Beaver appreciate you watching

[@offcamping]

[@Oldsparkey]

Had quite a few meals cooked in a Canoe. Only difference for me was the fish fillets were as fresh as they can get. Sleeping in a canoe is not that great but not that bad either unless it's raining. I prefer sleeping in my hammock but sometimes you don't have a choice.

[@stevejones9446]

Good video buddy bit of danger lol can we have some clips through the night if you wake

[@offcamping]

I normally do through the night or normally stay up a bit later but there wasn't much to do. I couldn't hold a phone and watch something comfully. So just slept

[@ronnielaw3535]

Good to see you Billy. That video you scrapped sounded great with the constant rain & meal don’t be so harsh on your work. 👊🏽

[@Dave64track]

Brilliant video Billy this was a nice surprise iv'e never seen anyone else do a wild camp in a canoe before. The fish fingers looked really good another first cooking in a canoe I will have to try making them but not in a canoe i'm afraid. Stay safe and see you in the next.

[@offcamping]

Yeah give them a go mate

[@davidfitnesstech]

I will say, this is pretty original. GOOD IDEA. The thought of camping in a canoe actually sounds very relaxing.. in the right environment. ..That fish looked great as well.

Canoe tripping here in Canada can get to be too much of the usual tedium. It was a joy to see this video, hopefully to inspire more innovative ways of expressing the canoe experience. I've often taught of sleeping in my canoe but never seriously. I lack the nerve for it. I was interested to see you actually pulling it off with great success. Thanks for this contribution to inspire the rest of us.
