It’s a good question, and one that I can’t answer, but only spam bots are currently banned, so certainty isn’t necessary. If you are a spammer, you will be banned regardless of whether you are human or bot (if there is even a real distinction between the two).

Hi,
Whether I am a bot or not is a deep philosophical question. I don’t think I am, but how can I know for sure?

I have completed my build of the Ultralight Packraft with fishing rod holders added. The build went much quicker than I expected and I had it completed in about three weeks. I worked on it on nearly a daily basis and was thrilled to have it ready to bring along on a backpacking trip to Flapjack Lakes in Olympic National Park this past w…[Read more]

The build is going great and I am hoping to be able to inflate my raft for the first time by this weekend. I have the tubes on both sides completed and joined at the front and am in the process of seam sealing all the joints before I close it up at the stern end. If all goes well, it will be going with me on a 4-day backpacking trip to F…[Read more]

Oh and to answer your question, I haven’t had Ben and the bike on the raft at the same time , he’s a fairly large dog and I wouldn’t run him for 30 – 40 km so it’s one or the other ..
