First video ?!?! Are you kidding me ?? Beautifully done. I love the quiet with captions. Views, critters, and odd stuff captured my attention all the way through…..and that’s rare for me.
It is great to see someone doing what I have been dreaming of doing for a long time now. And thanks for not drowning out the sound of nature with some weird music. A comment here and there about the plants would be nice so we can learn about your corner of the woods. Good vid. Thank you.
Second that... seems all the more captivating for THE LACK OF music. Appreciate the natural sounds and lack of incessant chatter that most vids insist on.
I’m glad you like them. I’ve tried a new way in this video th-cam.com/video/nErdh8FkkEA/w-d-xo.html I think I like this one the best… Thanks for watching.
Thanks so much for this video i have a small aluminium landing craft always thought about making a tent to camp in it , your video just inspired me to proceed. Thanks again greetings from Panama.
decent looking set up there mate. well done. I probs would have slung out the Bimini and put the panels on there, but Your Boat - your Rules. need to get off my own arse and do a river run myself.
The Everglades and Upper Noosa River. The outboard on the rear is petrol and very quiet at idle. The front motor is electric of batteries and solar. Thanks for watching 😊
Watching your video there is not a lot of difference between your area and mine here in Florida. Some trees and naturally the animals but a lot sure looks like our rivers around here. Great idea on the DIY Canvas tent set up for the boat. This side of the pond has a cot set up close to the one you used , ours is the Kamp Rite Tent Cot.
Chuck, the region in this video should like familiar to a Floridian. This is the only other Everglades on the world, the Noosa Everglades. One of my favourite paddle trips!
I am envious of anyone that can go out and do this. I've always wanted to go out on a boat and do something like this, just disconnect from the world for a day or two, except I would be fishing a lot more! I just have no time. But that's going to change soon! Awesome video!
I work full time too and I find I have to just book it in and go rain, hail or shine. I agree it can be very challenging though. I found my first time I was just letting things role, next trips I will fish much more 😊 Hang in there and I hope you get out there soon!
I'm glad you enjoyed it, thank you 😊 Please let me know what you enjoyed and what would make it better so I can keep improving my other videos. This is a journey and am grateful for the feedback...
Really enjoyable video mate, great editing. You ticked all the boxes. Have to agree no music was good reminded me of the canal journeys on tv they do in Europe, very relaxing. Love that boat, have done up to 2 overnighters in my boat 4 MTR but crocs are always a worry in northern Aus. Funnily enough a few beers always helps. Cheers
Thanks 😊 I’d like to do a trip further north in croc country. The bigger boat and maybe some barriers might do the trick 🤔 Are you up in north Australia?
@@riveReconNorth Queensland. Crocs will normally leave you alone unless you go in the water. Your boats definitely big enough for extended overnighters. Good luck with your next trip.
@@topoint cool, if I come up that way I’ll shout out. I’m still working on some tweaks to get the boat organized well for camping on the boat. I might raise the casting deck and make it longer so I can sleep underneath. I’m thinking I’ll end up with more deck space, be able to leave my bed set up, and no worries when I have to weather a storm, heavy rain, and wind.
The oil lamp does a couple of things: 1. It keeps the mosquitoes away and 2. It’s my safer way of having a “camp fire” and some warmth. Thanks for watching!
@@riveRecon I've been doing videos similar to your content for 6 years and never even xme close to that many views. It's amazing. Unexplainable. What tags did you use on the video? Maybe that explains some of it.
@@backwatersandbackroads no tags I think, didn’t really think about all of that. I just posted what I thought/liked. Who knows with TH-cam, I don’t think they tell us everything!
@@backwatersandbackroads Got paid for some of it. It was funny, I posted this boat camping trip for friends because I’ve always wanted to do it and got tired of watching everyone else on TH-cam do it. I was really scared camping solo for the first time but then really liked it 😀 I love the exploring, quiet and the odd adventurous moment. I sub’d to your channel too, keep at it and look for unique things people might like to watch…
Great Video, I've done that river also many years ago. One criticism. I live in Doomadgee, I am Remote, this is in Brisbane backyard, but I'll let this slide on through to the keeper)))))) Keep up the great work.
Yes, depends on perspective - no phone coverage, not another sole in sight, and a long time to get help if needed. 😃 I’m a rookie so plenty remote for me 🤣 and feel like there aren’t many remote places left…
@@riveRecon My ex's perspective was, when she parked her 4wd on the grass at Saturday football, she had been off road)))))). Nice work man, rookie or not, I admire your style and effort.

I have a old 3.75 Quintero dart and can sleep diagonally between the seats , but haven’t come up yet with a way to put a cover over the top without a lot of mucking about . How do those candles work out ? Heaps of mozzieswhere I would like to camp on the boat .Cheers 🍻
The candle works well. The tarp is great but not when lots of mozzies are about. My current set up works better for this and can fit on most tinnies: th-cam.com/video/nErdh8FkkEA/w-d-xo.html There’s a link in the description to it… Thanks
I find it very healing too, I’m glad you did 😀 As I’m new and learning please watch my other videos and let me know what I can improve or what works well. Thanks for watching 😊
Thanks for watching! The kitchen set up is basic. Cast Iron frying pan, dual fuel (Shellite) camp cooker and a stainless steel pot for boiling water. I don’t use a fridge and only go with an ice and cooler if I want to go for steak or something. I hope that helps.
Hi friend, I am grateful. I work full time so it's nice to be able to fit this in regularly. Keep hopeful to find how you can enjoy this type of thing too 😀
I am frequently impressed by the sturdiness of the aluminum boats shown from Australia. The boats seem almost over built, like the size of the bollard at the bow.
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.

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👍
@@douglaspianta4187one minute of latitude. The distance between longitude decreases as you go away from the equator.
@justwhy2484 hence a minute of angle. Doesn't matter where you are, a minute of angle is the same (unless you get into the more complex geodesy and the earth being an oblate spheroid, at least).
@douglaspianta4187 True - if you specify you are measuring angles from the centre of the Earth.

Thanks for tuning in, hopefully can encourage more people to do it 😀
Best video I’ve seen in years! No music and no vain cameraman getting in the picture. Two of my main peeves! Excellent job!!
Totally agree.
2 genius ways to have a ''cuddy cabin'' on a small boat. and a wonderful video thank you .

Good for you! Smart boating..good luck with what is next!
Nice, get a rig for the back as well my funk. Not bad now, beautiful scenery. Awesome video.
This is what I call living life 👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love the mirrored river shots! 👌
Very relaxing video. Great photography
Oh man I love it. Peace and quiet.
I’m glad you like it. Thanks for watching 😊 You might like my latest one: th-cam.com/video/mditxgDck3o/w-d-xo.html Thanks for tuning in!
It’s awesome you’re using the Ozark trail stretcher tent. I live in the ozarks in north west Arkansas where Ozark trail brand was designed.
The stretcher tent sets up easy enough. Id prefer canvas so it doesn’t get so cold and condensation isn’t so bad on the water. Thanks for watching 😄
So glad you paid respects to Chris Bamman, i have subscribed now.
This was a great video. I happened upon it by accident. Beautiful scenery. The bow tent was brilliant. I'll have to watch some more of your videos.
Awesome video, no music and so peaceful. Well done, wish I found it sooner.
Thanks for tuning in and glad you liked it. I hope you like the others ☺️
I always had dreams for camping my Proline. Never got around to it but it was puuurfect!
Excellent video with no unnecessary music to drown things out, I loved it, please keep it up

Great video. What a great way to camp anywhere. Excellent nature shots. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching 😊
great bit of natural life. no innane commentary. great photography. just enjoyed the whole vid immensely....thanks for your efforts......

This is a great video. What part of Australia is this? The motor of your boat is very quit. Is it powerd by a solar battery?

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 lived in my stretcher tent for 2 months in the summer, gotta keep a small fan inside to keep air moving or you get loads of condensation!
Great idea! I’ll have to give it a try 😊
@@riveRecon looking forward to hearing how it went!
Very interesting.wonderful nature.Thanks for sharing your video

What a great way to spend several days! I would love it

The oil lamp does a couple of things: 1. It keeps the mosquitoes away and 2. It’s my safer way of having a “camp fire” and some warmth. Thanks for watching!
The joy of sleeping on a boat in calm hidden waters is equal and opposite to the horror that is sleeping on a boat in any kind of "conditions" lol
Agreed! Storm season has started in my part of the country so let’s see if I get caught in one 😳 Thanks for watching 😊
incredible ! thank you
