   If you have problems deciding between a caravan or a boat why not have the best of both worlds and build one of these ...... plans on ebay

Have seen a caravan on a pontoon somewhere just can't think at the moment but it's been in the last twelve months I was astonished, but the people were sitting out as nice as you like on deck  relaxing in their chairs,

Bizarre idea, but if it does work it's probably a great idea!

There used to be a Caraboat stored for years at Sheetstores marina in Long Eaton in the 1970`s. it was usually in the water so I imagine its tyres would have been pretty perished!

As a former caracruiser owner I used to visit various marinas and there were static caravans on pontoons in a marina near Huntingdon over 5 years ago but looking at the prices it cost an awful lot more than a site on terra firma but I supose it was better when the floods come.
