Oui, magnifique, j'en rêve!!!

[@jnettosborne803]

Is this boat operated by a conversion unit using propane and not gasoline?? Brilliant; Features are beautifully done; what is the cost and docking ( slip) run

[@justicematters5447]

Not sure how you can call this truly off grid with a gas powered motor, but still very cool.

Hi very impressive how can I get a hold of Richard

Truly the woodwork of a Master Craftsman! Beautiful beyond words! Light, airy and well appointed, a really lovely marine Travel Cabin that is elegantly simple and simply elegant!

Amazingly beautiful craftsmanship!!

[@thasickest]

I remember the old video. beautiful craft

[@MrJames_1]

It beautiful, the curved wood, the attention to detail. FWIW I'd probably want the bimini to attach to the cabin to help keep the rain out, plus a set of clears. Can you imagine the view and warmth with clears on a winter day and the heater on? 365/24/7 happy place IMO.

[@jonathanjacques7250]

Just wonderful

Enough solar to power the motor, and boom its a winner !

[@ozgeneryasa]

We also have an all solar version of this boat, including the outboard engine. Özgen ([e-mail])

[@Radagast49230]

It's not exactly a difficult build. It's just a small structure built onto a pontoon boat. It's not suitable for full time living and has to stay in calm waters and avoid anything resembling bad weather or water conditions.

[@eyre7703]

I love this boat ! I wish I could try the hammock ^^

[@daanvangeijlswijk7787]

Great project! My question with this type of boat is how it deals with waves?

[@BobPruett]

Question: Can you live on a lake long term or are there time limits for how long you can stay on the water. I was just thinking that this seems like a very inexpensive way to live.

[@donutarmageddon7975]

The expense comes with fuel, a slip, maintenance, storage if/when not in use, transport, having only 15 gallons of fresh water in your tank, & going ashore for groceries every few days because your refrigerator is so small. Still, I'd do it if I could. The trade off seems fair. :)

[@slanc6054]

I just wanna know what these people do/did for a living?

[@jerrysmith517]

How much does it cost?

[@Bob-pu7ps]

fish and game can board at any time

[@tommynorthwood]

How much is it?

[@Merbella]

The fact he did this by himself is really incredible 👏

[@tommynorthwood]

He doesnt have ONE employee in a shop that big?

[@sophiao5855]

Very impressive. Very. Good Richard. Wow

[@TheAnnoyingBoss]

This is a nice one. Very forward thinking. I think you could build a rapid deploy deck pretty easily. Both above and below. Get real good square footage and a fishing platform

[@Doc.Holiday]

Nicely done! HOWEVER, having spent much time on sail boats and crossing both ocean, there is no way I’d want to keep up with that exterior bright work. West Systems with UV additive or others.... I DONT CARE, it’s an ongoing maintenance nightmare and will look terrible after five years of use. The only way to keep it is to have canvas covers made for everything and then not use it in the sum.

[@brendalister7560]

Gorgeous.....can’t believe how much he fit in that small space. Very talented boat builder.

[@peatmoss4415]

He didn't make the pontoons goofy...

[@JenShea]

What a beauty!! It looks absolutely perfect! It is one of my dreams... a houseboat! The wood workmanship is stunning and I love the LED’s embedded in to the beams.

[@ElsaRhae]

Wowwweee!! Great video you guys!

[@ExploringAlternatives]

Thanks so much you two

[@vacation_yachts_tour2809]

agree love the boat house, I want one😍😍😍

[@jentommyontheroad8089]

Beautiful craftsmanship! The layout is well planned and executed. I would want more solar and no propane, but the design is a perfect balance of indoor/outdoor living!

[@ozgeneryasa]

This is doable since every single boat we build is customized. We also have an all solar version of this boat, including the outboard engine. Özgen ([e-mail])

[@sophiao5855]

I agree with more solar no propane part. Prolly cheaper too

[@MoontouchedOwlBeast]

I was thinking the same! On my tiny house I only use solar and it keeps good climate control - hearing & cooling with a pioneer mini split

[@superfluff106]

That guy is a true craftsman. And now he gets to live in his work of art surrounded by nature. Pretty dang cool.

[@nondassteele5733]

Could easily live in that. ....and happily so :o) Lovely little floating abode.

Your videos are very nice and they motivate to traveling keep it up👍❤️💝❤️💝🔥

[@KirBVB]

Not very cheap obviously, but looks impressive and stylish 😉

[@bnkwupt]

Neat build. I’d love to see more solar on the roof as well as a solar canopy over the rear part of the front deck to provide more shade and shelter than the bimini top. Love the hammock on the front - looks like an amazing place to relax.

[@ozgeneryasa]

The rooftop can be canvassed with solar panels for additional power. Also, we are currently designing a new model, Le Muskoka, with a completely enclosed front deck , and windows all around (daigno.ca/en/assets/images/textes-web-daigno-2020-en-1-1938x1232.png). We should unveil it sometime early 2021. Visit our website occasionally for announcements. Özgen ([e-mail])

[@lorihutton4719]

That hammock sold me. I need to be laid up in that,today.

[@greyangelpilot]

One of the most perfect, original/crafted function meets aesthetic water based vessels I've ever seen. Congratulations Richard on an amazing build/creation !

[@ozgeneryasa]

Thank you... The Daigno Team

[@YT-no2yf]

I would love to have a boat like this. I would increase the inside space and decrease the outside space. Do a full bedroom and full bathroom Kitchen with stove and country sink and refrigerator full size . Make for full time home🤓💃💃💃

[@edwardschmitt5710]

Yeah the roof is for lounging.

[@YT-no2yf]

@@edwardschmitt5710 how much would it cost to have one made

[@edwardschmitt5710]

@@YT-no2yf Make it myself or have one made? I could make the houseboat for 40-60K But the motor and controls would be 13K more for 50HP

[@INDIANxxWARRIOR]

wow what a details there is absolute put effort in this perfect wood work i love it, it is beautiful

[@johnberry8117]

Beautiful build, Richard is definitely a master carpenter! He’s got it made cause he made it himself. Love the smart functioning layout,looks really comfortable!

[@comedianmattrossey]

Beautiful wood work. The whole boat is very well designed and very user friendly, so much so that on camera you can see it.

[@lass-inangeles7564]

Why are you talking so much? In fact, why are you talking at all? We are not blind. We can see. We don't need an alternate audio talk track to verify what eyes can see. It is the mark of a rank amateur to narrate ad nauseum what the camera lens is showing you. Just zip it up. Your intro was too long. We are not here to see the carpentry workshop or hear the history of this person. We are here for only one thing - TO SEE THE BOAT! So pan your camera, show tiny details, let the camera be the eyes and ears. In total silence. Focus on the boat not the talking heads. This is such a lovely boat and such an irritating video to watch. NO TALKING!!!! Silence is golden. And cut out music too. Just let us hear the sound of the water and see the warm wood tones of the boat. We should be able to smell it and hear it and see it from our living room with zero narration. That would be a class act and good camera work.

[@kraabol.mp4]

Ugggh want so much, I just wanna build and live and travel in things like this!! Gotta try to figure out to get paid

[@susanneguzman5339]

Oh my gosh a Floating RV? Beautiful workmanship. How much would one of these cost to have built?Love the hanging baskets. Didn’t see any closet space? Love the water filter! Is there an anchor? Hammock is wonderful. How is the insulation during winter months? Really great design 👍🏻

[@jocelynelangis777]

Mind blowing is the right term! Beautiful material this man is a real perfectionist! Love the hamac idea for an unique relaxation. Everything in there is perfectly made. Great Guy! Thanks for this invitation for evasion!

[@sissyberkieberkheimer3387]

Why are you doing the talking and not the owner of the boat... No one wants to hear you we want to hear from the one who built the boat... Just film him and you can take a brake and listen..

[@cloverhighfive]

I don't think I'd live live on a boat like this, but for a weekend getaway? Sure! It's really a splendid, mind-blowing piece of ...art. It's art. That's what it is. Wow. Also looks spacious enough to get quite a few friends to go hang out in the middle of the lake :D

So where does he keep his dishes, clothes, socks, underwear, shoes, electronics, brooms, mops, pots, pans, washer, dryer, TV, eyeglasses, tupperware, garbage can, fishing pole, silverware, playboy magazines, books, tools, girlfriends, toiletries, towels, hats, mittens, fly swatters, watches, paperwork, tax records, coats, dental floss, cleaning products.... ???

I want this exact thing, but in an overland vehicle of some sort. 😀

[@doreen3737]

Beautiful houseboat but that hammock😳 one wrong turn and you're going for a swim🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@melrose8213]

It would be SO cool if the hammock could be lowered so you could dangle you foot in the water while you rock. 🥺 And have an optional lil nylon sheet over it to prevent some serious post accidental nap time sunburn 😬

[@a64738]

Never have sharp corners in a boat... I can not count all the bruises I got from corners in the 3 sailboats I have been in when sailing out at open sea. I even missed having a seat-belt when going to the toilet and you had to use both arms grabbing the the toilet not get thrown of.... (that is what happens when you go out to the North Sea in a 28ft sailboat lol). My boat is 31ft and half the weight of 3 ton is in the keel and even that one will try to throw you into a wall or overboard when out at sea and the waves is just the wrong size and length compared to the size of the boat...

[@TheOwenMajor]

You're not going out in the open sea on a pontoon boat, these are made for lakes and rivers, something we have in abundance in Canada.

[@IExpectedBSJustNotThisMuchBS]

I get motion sickness and so could never do this, but oh how I envy people who can live on a boat. Great houseboat!

Love the design, it's a beauty. Pity he didn't use the pull-out bed base used in campers and a swivel table. Would be more comfortable. So it wouldn't be that much trouble to make the bed every evening.

[@ozgeneryasa]

This design meets certain functionality requirements, including storage space under the seats with access to equipment bays below, back door and access to rear deck, etc. All our boats can. and are, customized for each client, so we could do that if you like.

[@BeautifuLakesStreamsBiologists]

What a fantastic way to live. My only question is treating the gray water with a charcoal filter. It is very unlikely this will remove the excess phosphates from gray water which leads to pollution via excessive algae production. I would love to see a chemical profile of the effluent water. Hoping for good news!

[@craigescapeddetroit5198]

That roof has enough space for at least 2,000 watts of solar, yet they have very little solar power. WHY? If they "max out" with solar panels, they could also put a couple of ELECTRIC Trolling motors on the back, and do some motoring for Free and without making any noise.

[@7Jennifer]

Gorgeous build! It is just so aesthetically pleasing to look at. It almost reminds me of the curvature of Japanese architecture. So many neat elements too. I mean, could you imagine chilling in that hammock over the water?? How awesome would that be! The cushions for the bed are the exact kind of cushions that some tiny home builders/van or truck lifers should be investing in. These actually look comfortable and substantial compared to the foam ones that are typically seen. Even the deck cushions are really nice. What a wonderful space to be able to live and cruise around in.

[@MoanikaLewinsky]

Spooky hammock set up, if the hammock would be a normal original hammock (Hamaca) would be much safer, but americans and europeans, love to spread open "hammocks" by installing those dangerous rods on each end, that makes the hammock a total unsafe place to get on, let alone in the middle of the water, if it was me, I would install a real HAMACA there, and not that thing!

[@LurkerDood]

Is that a wet bath? Bad design, there is space on a boat where you can design a bathroom where the toilet is not right on the shower, this isn't a space limited camper van 😬
