Sorry for the missed replies, it seems the e-mail notices went straight to my junk folder. It’s fixed now.
If anyone wants a valve or a few, I can be contacted at gabriel.couet@gmail.com (there you go web scrapers, have a field day with my e-mail, lol)

Yikes, that could have ended badly!
I’m not aware of any time limitations for the irons – I have left my irons plugged in for much longer than two hours without any sign of problems, and I haven’t heard of anyone else having this problem either, so I think maybe you were unlucky and received a bad iron. It’s unfortunate that it takes so long to…[Read more]

Haha, that’s great! This project really does appeal to a certain type of person – there’s surely another type that ends up shelving it unfinished, but those people don’t tell me about it so it’s hard to know how many there are. It is pretty gratifying to see the “repeat offenders” though!
I think you’re right that the Anfibio self-bailing tube…[Read more]

So I was making good progress ironing the first tube yesterday, when I noticed something warm on on my elbow. I looked and it was thick, gray smoke coming from the back end of the leather iron. I quickly threw it onto a plate I have on the floor for putting the hot iron on and immediately after a loud pop sounded with a spark coming from the iron.…[Read more]

This DIY project really attracts a certain type of person… so many pics say “Finished my first boat” indicating that they loved the project and plan to do more!! I’m the same, and all my friends are asking about how to make their own. Luc Mehl, the alaskan packraft Guru, even gave approval of my boat “bubbles” when I took his swift water rescue…[Read more]

Finished my first Skeena this spring and just got back from a 4 day float down the North Fork of the Flathead river in Montana (USA). Big water because of a wet spring, lots of class 2+ waves but the Skeena performed just as well as the Alpacas in the group. I believe this raft outperformed the Kokopelli Hornet-Lite rafts floating with us by…[Read more]

I have an alpaca raft with removable deck (zipper and velcro) and is just too leaky for even basic use. Wondering if its possible and worth trying to put on DIY spray deck?
