This Tiny House Boat is an INCREDIBLE Floating Off-Grid Cabin

This handcrafted cedar tiny houseboat that measures 28'x8' and weighs 6,000 lbs. The Koroc V model has a massive deck with sofas, a dinette, and a hammock that hangs over the water, plus a bimini for shade. Indoors there's a kitchen, bathroom, dining table, and a dinette with sofas that converts into a queen-size bed. It was handcrafted by Richard from Daigno in Quebec, Canada.

This float home is completely off-grid with a solar panel and batteries for electricity, a water pump to pull water from the lake or river for showering, a freshwater tank for drinking water, a composting toilet, a carbon filter for greywater, and a propane heater. There are also two roof fans and plenty of windows and doors that can help keep air circulating.

This is a beautiful build and it was fun to spend the day on the water with Richard and his business partner Özgen, touring and spending time on the pontoon boat, and even cooler to go back to his workshop at the end of the day to see where all the magic happens. Richard really does create every part of this boat by hand and we hope you enjoyed taking a peek at another of his masterpieces!

Thanks for watching!

The wood work, attention to detail, hammock...TOP NOTCH HOUSE BOAT!!!

[Merbella]

The fact he did this by himself is really incredible 👏

[superfluff]

That guy is a true craftsman. And now he gets to live in his work of art surrounded by nature. Pretty dang cool.

[brendalister]

believe how much he fit in that small space. Very talented boat builder.

[JenShea]

What a beauty!! It looks absolutely perfect! It is one of my dreams... a houseboat! The wood workmanship is stunning and I love the LED’s embedded in to the beams.

[greyangelpilot]

One of the most perfect, original/crafted function meets aesthetic water based vessels I've ever seen. Congratulations Richard on an amazing build/creation !

[johnberry]

Beautiful build, Richard is definitely a master carpenter! He’s got it made cause he made it himself. Love the smart functioning layout, looks really comfortable!

[jentommyontheroad]

Beautiful craftsmanship! The layout is well planned and executed. I would want more solar and no propane, but the design is a perfect balance of indoor/outdoor living!

[felixcat]

Truly the woodwork of a Master Craftsman!

Beautiful beyond words!

Light, airy and well appointed, a really lovely marine Travel Cabin that is elegantly simple and simply elegant!

[lorihutton]

That hammock sold me. I need to be laid up in that, today.

[jocelynelangis]

Mind blowing is the right term! Beautiful material this man is a real perfectionist! Love the hamac idea for an unique relaxation. Everything in there is perfectly made. Great Guy!
Thanks for this invitation for evasion!

[alexlarson]

This is just the most amazing tiny floating home I’ve ever 😮😮😮

[comedianmattrossey]

Beautiful wood work. The whole boat is very well designed and very user friendly, so much so that on camera you can see it.

[chentyler]

That is my dream boat! I really wish I could live on a boat like this some day. When I was a child I've always wanted to have my own boat with a house on it. In my spare time I can go boating in a lake and stop in the middle of the lake and then enjoy alone. I can cook for myself. I can sit on the deck enjoying quietly the scenery around with a cup of milk or coffee. What an amazing life that is! Lol.

[IExpectedBSJustNotThisMuchBS]

I get motion sickness and so could never do this, but oh how I envy people who can live on a boat. Great houseboat!

[nancyd]

I want one! You did an amazing job with the woodwork. I love seeing a man really care about what he does and it isn’t an “it’ll do” job.

[tnoel]

I have to admit this is a wonderful use of space, and the hammock is the best part of this beautiful small house boat.

[bnkwupt]

Neat build. I’d love to see more solar on the roof as well as a solar canopy over the rear part of the front deck to provide more shade and shelter than the bimini top.

Love the hammock on the front - looks like an amazing place to relax.

[nondassteele]

I Love this, great ideas, always wanted a house boat...
