Quoted from jaytrem:Hmmm, I think it started out with a conversation like "wouldn't it be cool if....", then of course there was a lunch bet on whether I could build it and if it would actually float. There are indeed pipes driven into the muck, so it doesn't move much at all. It is fun to listen to people's reactions when they canoe by (there's a rental place down stream). Lots of "Holy S#!ts" and some confusion. One guy asked if it was for hitting golf balls in to, haven't tried that yet.
I'm guessing you left out a couple of details. As in: "I was having some cool beverages with friends when someone said "wouldn't it be cool....."
And "I was having some cool beverages with friends eating lunch one day when my best friend said "there is no way in hell you can build it and get it to float" to which I replied "Piece of cake, I'll bet you..."
(I've discovered that the best (and worst) ideas often begin with cool beverages
)
