1" (or 1/2 or 3/4) square tube aluminum stock cut in 3" sections. Or plastic cutting board.

Three more.

More pics.

Thought I'd put some pics up from our trip. We rowed, ate, camped, drank, traveled, cribbaged, foraged, and hiked well. Great trip all around. Not much blood, sunburns, or hangovers. One outbreak...

Grand Ronde is a nice little float. Good looking setup.

Me too. Just did the non-perishable shopping last night. Everything is in the trailer except coolers. Holler if you see this boat.

Not a lot of loading or carrying but really good riggers. Can’t wait to get to that point.

A few more.

Sweet man. We're launching June 30th. Might see you out there. Snow packs are good over here but it's always a roll of the dice on how it comes off. Working on the shuttles now. Might take a jet...

By the way, re-read your title and a family of four isn't going to fit in a 14 inch boat. A 14' with a family of four can be done but gets a little tight for seven days. But that's what buddies...

How I set up my boat. Bow to stern-dry box, cooler, side boxes or slings in rower bay, dry box, pelican on side up front and one by rower for day use stuff. Pacific ariver bag in stern.
