I'm a 50 year old who enjoys discovering new places off my bucket list, through solo open boat camping adventures. Appreciating the silence of the mind, magnificent natural scenery, flora and fauna, with background music provided by the pure sounds of nature. I'm learning how to recreate my real-life ASMR no talking sort of experience.
I work full time. My boat camping trips are my hobby, editing my videos a bit at a time at night.
I'm interested in lots of things and try fishing, bow fishing for a bit of fun, spotting wildlife and amazing scenery along the way. I'm having fun figuring out how to have a great camping experience on the boat and the challenges it presents. Like how to have a campfire, eat well, and be comfortable. I'm always on the lookout for the next thing to try.
I find this peaceful and helps me switch off from the daily work pace. I hope I can pass some of that on to you and help you experience things that you might not get the chance to see.

Overnight Boat Camping Solo Adventure - Heavy RAIN & Wind - Historic Search | ASMR No Talking
I Googled my symptoms, it turns out I just needed to go boat camping! 🤣
Summer heat and health kept me from camping on the boat alone for a while, so it was really nice to find time to get back out there. I didn't let the heavy rain and high winds stop me from going on this adventure. My setup was tested for the first time in these conditions though.
Trying different clothing for these conditions was also a little worrying. After getting soaked on my last trip (I've learned that you get wet on a boat from windy and wavy conditions more than rain!), I needed to test and find a better way to stay dry and cozy.
Discovering a comfortable spot to sleep on the boat overnight in the rain and wind was another challenge. With winds of +25Knots (+46km / +29 miles per hour), it's not easy as these high winds seem to bend around most spots that would provide shelter.
To put a bit of fun into the trip and motivate me to get out there in these conditions, I decided on a fun challenge. There is a historic canal built back in 1922 on this river. Most people (including me) unknowingly motor right passed it. More than 100 years ago, it was well-used. Now it is overgrown and is a challenge to find through the thick vegetation.
All this whilst also wanting to relax and recharge, you wouldn't be blamed to think that maybe the two work against each other.
Please let me know how you think it turned out and ask any questions about the trip you would like to know answers to in the comments below.
If you would more like detail on the area of this adventure (Including markers to the historic canal, I place all my helpful information in the free Deckee Boating App here: bit.ly/3BqQL2y

Not in a hurricane or heavy rain, or under a handkerchief with my pregnant girlfriend. I’ll leave that to all the others. Relaxing sounds of nature, POV style. This is what I do when I can’t take my big tinny camping. Maybe you could call it survival, surviving the rat race! Paddle, sail, camp coffee, camp food. No ice or fridge needed…

My first mouth-watering Red Claw CATCH and COOK, camping on the boat. I was lucky enough to get a travel window between gale force winds and severe weather to get into the outdoors. Traveling 260km inland to a lake that was at 25% capacity a week before, to arrive at over 100% capacity. It was hot! 37 degrees Celcius and 70% humidity, with swarms of insects.

Compact Campfire Smokeless for Camping on the Boat - Camping Hack - ASMR No Talking
มุมมอง 1.1K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Getting that campfire feel on the boat when camping on the boat is tricky. It needs to be compact, safe, quick to put out, and cool down fast. The areas I explore do not allow wood fires because it's such an environmentally sensitive area, and wood takes up precious space if I have to take it with me. This is my upgraded attempt at how to make a campfire on the boat. Trying to get that "log loo...

New sub here. Shear envy. What a neat adventurer. from North Georgia
Thanks for tuning in and welcome😊. I hope to be back on the water soon with more new vidyas 😀
Love the boat gonna try and find one with a similar layout in the states. What tent was that?
Cool, I really like the completely flat deck for ease of cleaning and the high bow for rough weather. The boat tent I use is a Darche Nebula. It’s a little on the heavy side for me to handle but top quality and strong. Thanks for watching 😊
I need a boat 🤦🏻♂️
Nice set up camping boat! 👌 What size is you aluminium boat?
It’s a 7.5m/24ft aluminum boat. Thanks for watching 😊
BELÍSSIMO LUGAR...
Queremos muitos vídeos... muita saúde! Aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
what is the make of that tent? Its perfect for this boat camping.
It’s a Darche nebula canvas swag tent. It’s pretty heavy duty and awesome for boat camping. It’s hard for me to lift and set up though. I’m working on an upgrade that I hope takes comfort and ease to the next level camping on the boat. Thanks for tuning in 😊

Nice boat! Looks like a great time
Thanks. It was a nice time and thanks for watching 😀
@@riveRecon any new videos on the horizon mate? you had an awesome setup
@@Nomad_Dad hey, thanks for checking in. I’ve had some health challenges but hope to be back out on the water soon.
Where is this? Looks incredible. ( Apologies if it says in the video and I missed it).
Thanks for tuning in 😊 This is along the Great Sandy Straits and eastern side of Hervey Bay in Qld Australia. The main camp spot is here: bit.ly/3S5f9zi
I loved this. So good to have a "POV" film rather than some egotistical d***w*d mouthing off constantly about how he built everything from rhe boat to his hat and annoying music playing over fast edits.
Love it! Peaceful to watch.
Thank you, I’m glad you liked it 🙂
What boat is it. Looks perfect for your use?
Just a big aluminum tinnie made to my specifications. Thanks for watching 😊
Truly my kind of life 🎣
Thanks for watching 😊
If I could be 25 again 🎣🇺🇸
@@jamesclose5862 I know what you mean, I get rude shock when my mind still thinks I’m in my 20’s but my body slaps it back into reality 🤣
I'm 62 wouldn't you 😼

Great vid, showing the beauty of Aus. A little backup power pack wouldn't go amis, just in case. If you continue to show close-ups of flora and fauna, some identification would be nice. Great to see a vid with no background music, loved the peacefulness and tranquillity. For a first video, great effort.👍
Thanks for the suggestions, encouragement, and watching 😊
2024 i am 44 year old... i hope when 50 year old i can enjoy my life same like you ....from malaysia
Yes, things can be busy and other challenges that stop us getting out and doing things we like. Maybe you could try enjoying nature in little time slots now rather than waiting until you are 50. Thanks for watching 😊
cool never thought about river camping like this before. something to add to the list
Yes it is cool river camping like this, I find there is much more to see and explore than out in the ocean. Thanks for watching 😊
I love your boat and how open it is what kind is it
It’s a 7.2m/24ft plate alloy boat. The fuel tank is under the floor and it has self draining decks, that’s what makes it so open. I had it made to my specifications. Thanks for watching 😊
true about the power you talk of. God bless and be save!!!!!
Thank you 😊. You too!
Awesome
Thanks for watching 😊
The floor looks great! What did you use? Or does it come standard with the boat?
I used RV composite/sandwich panel offcuts for the casting deck. I got them from an RV manufacturer who just normally throws them out. Really easy to work with, strong and super lite weight. Thanks for watching 😊
@@riveRecon Sorry, I should've been more clear... I actually meant on the overall floor of the boat
@@hxBass oh 🤣. The floor matting is vinyl tube flooring I bought online. It’s heavy enough that it doesn’t need to be glued down. It makes it easy to clean out the boat and keep an eye on the underfloor structure… thanks and hope that helps 😀
Can you tell Me about the Bimini top? Very interesting design!
It’s an Aussie made Kingfisher Eclipse. It allows access around the boat pretty easily compared to others and has a huge coverage area too. You can also deploy just one half if needed for more fishing rod swing space. This is my second boat with one. They’ve sponsored one of my videos, if you go to them let them know about riveRecon. Thanks.
I found the site and going to reach out to them! I fish out of a Carolina skiff, basically a 20’ barge and this would solve a lot of the Bimini issues with better coverage than the t-tops. Thanks!
That's fricken awesome mate. I like how you took a recording of the river and overlay it on the satellite map. Did you use a video editor to do that or some other software?
Thanks, I’m glad you like it. It took a bit of work to transfer the sonar to images and then overlaid it on Google Earth and recorded the screen. A bit mashed up…
@@riveRecon Well done! That's the first time I've seen something like that I'm pretty sure, it's pretty awesome!
Oh, you have the best videos! I sure wish we had such inland waterways here in northern Japan, but I guess we'll have to rely on vicarious cruises and camping by way of riveRecon... Thank you!
You are too kind 😊 Thank you for the encouragement 😀
@@riveRecon (Well, I preach kindness, as Jack Kerouac encouraged us to do in his "Dharma Bums"... ; )
Not sure if it's obvious, but I like the fact that the tubes conduct a lot of heat as the inside air is heated.
Yes they do conduct a lot of extra heat. This was too successful, too hot for use on the boat! Thanks for tuning in again 😊

Excellent!! (For the US viewers, if it hasn't been covered, 120 km is about 75 Miles. 65 Nautical Miles, whatever they are. )🤔 😉❤
That’s an awesome point! I keep forgetting to “translate” distance measurements. I’ll have to do the same for fish sizes 😀 Thanks for watching 😊
Nautical miles are a minute of angle at the earths surface👍

Does the cover on your outboard reduce the noise much?
Hi there, it’s actually a fairly quiet outboard as far as outboards go. The cover is mainly protection from weather and more so scratches as I explore some tight spaces.
No te dan miedo los animales salvajes? Qué hay de los cocodrilos y serpientes ?
Thanks for watching! I’m just cautious around wild animals and I don’t seem to have a problem with them.
