Full Stop 😂🤣😂 forgive me for laughing at everything that goes wrong 👍 To me that's what makes it interesting, how we handle the unplanned and unscheduled events, big and small. Great build, hope to see it brought back out for another adventure when the lake thaws!

Oh, my gosh, Kevin!! We just learned so much from you!! We tuned in for the entertainment and got tons of that and lots of new info!! Thank you!! ❤️🙏

Full Stop. Such a great project! I watched Zacks build too, ....but I'd personally feel safer in your boat build, cozy and stable. Nice Job!

Full stop. Just started binge watching the build off between you and Fowler. I haven't seen his complete, but I think you have this one in the bag! Love your work.

Kevin, I hope you never change. Your videos always make me smile, which is a pretty rare thing, and I always get enjoyment from watching everything you do. I can't wait until your next project. I'm so glad I found your channel I think last year? Feels like way longer though. You honestly make me want to build things and I'm not even close to a handyman or craftsman.

Full stop! I love watching your videos, because my late hubby John was also always building stuff with used materials. He was very creative, I call that way of thinking outside the box “MacGyvering”. I used to love to watch him build and construct and help him if I could. He actually listened to my ideas if I had any and tried them out and if they were better than his own, he’d admit that and compliment me. I miss him a lot but watching you build all kinds of stuff brings back so many beautiful memories, that the missing hurts less. So thank you for that Kevin ❤

Hi, Fieke - what’s the most interesting thing he built? You have good memories!

Full stop! I haven't laughed as hard for a long time , thank you! When you said the ice was thin i expected a 1/2 inch thick skim and not 3 inches and knew you wouldn't get far . Kudos ,very much like an SCTV skit but for real. You and your bro rock

Full stop. I’m super glad I found this channel. It’s great to see a great Canadian KZreadr, love the rep and the videos.

Full stop. I appreciate how you don’t let ice and snow get in the way of your plans! I hate cold and probably miss out on some great opportunities

@@ModernSelfReliance Hey Kevin, have you tried taking supplements yet for your elbow? Since I started taking things like Magnesium Chloride, Glutathione, Quercitin and zinc, my stiff joints have gotten a lot better. The zinc just allows our blood cells to take in more of the supplements. I didn't realize it until I started taking these supplements but we age on the inside too lol.

The cold here in canada is crappy but also the best thing to live through gets rids of most of the useless and annoying insects for up to 6 months and allows our rivers to naturally rise again due to poor management in the locks and waterway systems.

@@ModernSelfReliance you’re a really funny guy and you keep me company on lonely days. My dog likes your voice. 🤣 He always looks to see what crazy thing you’re making and why I’m laughing out loud. Best wishes to you and your precious family. Those videos projected on the wall were so adorable.❤️

Full stop. I like your little side project videos and vibes you give off. It’s nice to just kick back and watch material that’s actually interesting that someone actually put time and real effort into creating

Full stop!!! That's absolutely amazing!!! You sir just gave my hubby and I the best spring project to do with our 10 yr old boy. He's been in love with the idea of building a micro bike camper, but I think he'll love this even more. Thank you for all of your hard work, time, and dedication to put out interesting, educational, and just cool content

I've got all the parts for a bike camper... I haven't got around to making it.

Kevin your imagination Never Seses to Amaze Me this Boat is so freaken Cool I can't ever get enough of the things that you build 🤘🏽💀🤘🏽

Full Stop. Glad the pontoon idea worked in stabilizing the houseboat. The doors could be left open and maybe a fold down roof added to have a covered porch to keep rain and snow out. Or use canvas to extend walls and roof to give more room at the back and open doors to make side walls. Or add a large umbrella that could be folded like a Sunbrella.

Full stop always, 2 to 3 times for every vid and sharing. "If you are going to fail, fail quickly" helps me so much to reduce fear of failure and try something. Learning is not a failure its a gain. If evey project or task went seamless and perfect, then I would be an underachiever as that ment only certain tasks were attempted to ensure perfection. Never learning, thats the biggest failure.

Full stop. Always watch your videos all the way Kevin, I put them on mostly while I'm eating breakfast and drinking my coffee, perfect way to start the day! Love your stuff man, all your creations are so impressive, you seem like a really cool and fun guy, you give lots of great advice, keep up the great work. Found you through your brother who's channel I also enjoy quite a bit, I think your channels complement eachother nicely with you being the creative homesteading type stuff and Chris being the outdoorsy survival type stuff. Cheers from Jersey!

My wife and I make our Moka pot coffee here on Saturday mornings and settle in to go along with you on your adventures! Full stop every episode!!!

Full stop. My 8 homeschooled kids love watching and learning from your videos

Full Stop. I have almost finished all of your Playlists. The things you build out of recycled items are awesome. What got me watching you and eventually Zackary Fowler was your brothers channel when you guys started building the cabin. Been here since then. Love what you guys do.

Full stop. Of course I watch the whole video Kevin, and I always do. You always entertain and you make me laugh…in the best way ever. I love your mini houseboat. Bloody awesome mate. Cheers from Australia. 👏🏻🇦🇺🌺🌴

FULL STOP, but have since day one! Also found your 1st channel and watched you felling trees. You are multi-talented and entertaining to watch. I'm so glad Chris talked you into starting your own channel. You boys have so much to offer. Thank you for all you do. Blessings to you.

full stop. I am loving following your crazy builds. So much inspiration and helpful hints on how to build on a budget.

Hazel ☘️ … ……………………….! …….. FULL. STOP ! Another great build Kevin ! 🙏☘️😘

Full stop Kevin! I always love the quirky nature of your videos and its wholesome content. I cannot wait to see what wonderful ideas and builds that you do next!

From one Kevin to another, your videos are extremely informative and entertaining! Full stop.

Full Stop. I enjoy seeing the friendly competition between you and Zac on these wacky builds. Thanks and Cheers!

Full Stop! Love your "competition" videos. Here in Seattle, we don't have quite the cold, so it was a big surprise to see you go play in a frozen lake like it was nuthin'!! Love all the videos in this houseboat series. A big thanks for the fun!

Why u say full stop what does that mean

Full stop. I alway watch your videos from beginning to end. Great job on the boat! I live in Maine just a few miles from Zack. I have been thinking about building a house boat to do just what you were talking about , although I don’t think I would park it in front of one of the McMansions though. My thought is to pick up a cheap pontoon boat and turn it into a cool house boat.

Full stop. So awesome with the prop on the power drill! Funny but effective! It was cute seeing you enjoy yourself! I'm glad you got the right girl who doesn't like the pretzels. You sure are a go getter! You inspire. You didn't let the ice stop you from trying. Thank you 😊

Kevin, you are hilarious! FULL STOP! You make me laugh with your shenanigans every video, and I love your creativity. Don't ever stop building!

Full Stop. This is such a fun project battle. I would love to see more people do these mini house boats.

Full stop! Always! Love your channel and all your amazing projects. It inspired me to fix up our metal shed. So we put down a new floor and built bins to store our cooking wood, and a brick stove just outside the door. You could actually sleep out there it's so cozy now. Plus it's way more productive! We have been building things out of it now too! So thanks again for the entertainment and inspiration!

Full stop, I am addicted to watching your builds

Full stop. Really love this, maybe I'll get the time to make something like this myself some day

Full Stop Kevin! You are always a cheery and fun guy to watch. Our Youth Group Leader and you look a lot alike, with Twin personalities. That is a COMPLIMENT! Thanks for making us smile!! Sorry to hear about your family's loss of Bean. There are special pups we all miss dearly, and Bean will be missed! Wishing you and your family a Happy New Year.

Full stop! I watched every minute!! What a hoot! That's something that I would really like to do!! Thank you so much for all of the fun!!

full stop. Thank you for your great work, Kevin. You're such a gifted and creative individual. You inspire my two kids, my wife, and myself. My wife actually got to see you at the transfer station/ reuse centre. I was totally jealous, but maybe I'll get to see you some other time. Our family enjoys wilderness camping, and we have seen (abandoned) houseboats moored up in cottage country. Obviously, the people come back to it later. You're allowed to moor in some places, so I challenge you to moor your watercraft sometime in the future.

Nice! Thay place has got some good stuff sometimes.. keep building!

Full Stop. Love the idea about an ugly barge in front of a McMansion. With the battery drill motor it reminded me of when I was a kid just making things work. Experimentation is so much fun.

Full Stop, love your playful attitude. Don't ever change. We set up a pool on whether on not you'd be stuck in the ice come morning... I won!

FULL STOP! My wife and I watch every minute of your videos. Love them. Thanks for everything you, Don and your brother do.

full stop! awesome build. I think a little bigger of a boat could really be a nice place to camp on the lake with. A catamaran is really nice and perhaps pontoon rig might do.

Full Stop. great way to pass some time and learn something at the same time. Thanks Kevin.

Full stop. No sidekick (Don) this episode. We miss Don. Loving this. Now you've tested the theory its time to go big. Maybe when it spring. Do it! Full stop

Full stop. A great video.definitely love watching your videos the way you explain stuff in such detail in a short way for people to understand. Boat design is nice.

Full stop. Love your little houseboat. Your imagination is only matched by your ingenuity.

Full stop buddy, I wouldn't miss a single minute! Can't wait to see the little boat on some open water next summer.

Full stop! We absolutely love watching your videos, Kevin! Your sense of humor is 2nd to none. When you set up your barge, make sure that is filmed lol 😆

Full stop! Love your creative adventurous soul! Was amazed the houseboat was so steady on the water and laughed at your propeller powered by a drill... but then it worked! Lol! Great entertaining video! Thanks for braving the cold for an overnight.

Full stop, love your builds! Very creative

Hey Kevin, I just started watching the 1st of the boat vid. You are getting me to giggle a bit. I see how much fun you are having doing this challenge. Ha! 🙂, and I know it's frustrating, and disappointing as well, but I ❤ your positive energy! You don't give up,that's the main thing. 😁 my Elders use to say, at 1st,tttagain., if you didn't succeed, then they said stop trying until you get it right! You are tenacious enough that You kinna sucked me in, from the get go man. I think you are going to have a Yaught bye the end. You are cute and funny too! I always learn something from watching these kinds of videos. You are a likeable, talented, level headed, skilled, and adventurous person that I just enjoyed spending my time with! Thank's for sharing. Go Ahead hon, try, try, and then, "Just do it"! Can't wait to see the lil ship looking cool & classy! But above all Boiyent and jamming on! See ya, NZ. ✌❤😁🤟

full stop I love all the builds and I don't want to miss anything! if I felt like I have to skip around I wouldn't watch at all. Keep up the great content Kevin.

Full stop. Watch your videos through to the end all the time. The creativity, ingenuity and knowledge you share is awesome.

full stop. love the boat. it's so adorable and cozy looking. I must say I had my doubts.

Full stop! Love the creation process and feel like I've learnt a lot since I found your channel. Keep it coming :D

Full stop. Just found your channel about a week ago and I’ve been watching through. I’ve always been a builder and tinkerer, so I really enjoy seeing all these ideas you come up with. Very entertaining and inspiring for my own future builds! I’ve done a 5x8 mini camp trailer already, but we sold it and I’ve been itching to do a mini that fits in my truck bed next!

Full stop. These are so interesting and fun. Reminds me of all the things I wanted to build when I was a kid 😃

Full stop. Cool little boat/house. Can't wait to see it on open water

Full stop. Your idea about the barge gave me a good chuckle. Thanks for making videos.

Full stop. I always watch your videos from beginning to end. I was really looking forward to this one. You never disappoint!

Full stop, pretty awesome boat you made! You got me inspired to go out an create my own

Full stop all day braddah!!! I love the positivity and just good natured fun times. Keep it up.

Full stop! Loving this boat competition series.

Full stop! These adventures of yours are amazing. I don't think there's much yiu can't do!

FULL STOP! I'm REALLY enjoying your adventures Kevin, while I am warm in my home :)

full stop - I am a full timer always - time just flies because your stories are so interesting and your delivery so authentic and entertaining. Cheers and Happy New Year!

FULL STOP! Loved the propeller with the drill idea! Your boat is the deluxe decore and lighting. Of the two of you and Zack, his is really cool for fishing, plus he can stand up in his. He might have problems on a windy day across the beam of the boat.. Yours might have problems with small waves. You may have problems with a strong headwind to make enough headway with your drill as propulsion. But yours is adorable! Fun build and fun challenge!

Full stop, I love watching your videos. You keep them entertaining and insightful. It’s easy to stay fully engaged. Thank you and keep up the great videos.

Full stop. I find your videos very interesting and entertaining! So creative!

Full stop as always. Thanks for sharing. 👍

Full stop... been watching you and your brothers you tunes for 2 years thank you.

Good job bro, always on top of your game. I enjoy your work

Full stop. Love watching these vids of your creations and the longer the better in my opinion, can actually have a proper watch! Keep up the mad inventions, it gives me inspiration to try to make stuff 😀

Full Stop! Great work! Love how it turned out. Glad to see that there is another person with a MotoZ. Hope we see this boat again after the tweaks with other folks and their reactions

Full stop. Watched Fowler's first. You are both fun to watch and make me wish I still had a workshop to build in. Happy Holidays and thank you.

Full Stop!! We love all of these adventures!! Never stop, man!! 💪🏻👊🏻👍🏻

Full Stop. Doing research on a couple of on going projects. My "poncatanoe" (pontoon catamaran canoe) and my 53in. x75in. utility trailer. At first I was going to build my "boat" suitable for car topping. Now I'll just use the recently acquired trailer to build a small camper. Then I'll mount the boat on the trailer. Liked some of your ideas on your boat and your "glamping trailer". Had the same idea on a canoe that I bought used in '79. People would see it on my truck rack and ask what the heck is that? I guess they had never seen a canoe with out riggers. Had loads of fun in my "outriganoe" until I sold it in '08. Just discovered you channel been watching for 3 to 4 hours. Keep up the good work. Stay safe and have fun.

full stop. cozy and dreamy... really tempted to challeng myself to make an even smaller one.

FULL STOP!! Loved this! Thank You for the adventure

FULL FECKEN STOP! Sittin' outside poppin' a cold one with the hubby! Digging your vids, thank you! Merry Christmas! 😜🍻👍🛥🚤🚣⛵⚓
