Now You Can Buy Plans For This Adorable (And Super Functional) Micro Houseboat

By SnugShack Floating, Mobile, Videos

With readily-available plans, you too can have a handicap-accessible micro houseboat that's both cozy and stylish.

Do you love the idea of getting rid of a lot of junk and downsizing to a smaller space – but still want to experience life on the water?

Flexibility might just be the best thing about tiny houses. One man built a small house on a pontoon boat that could be the most unique and classiest DIY tiny home we’ve seen yet.

Named Diane’s Rose, she’s a beauty.

Doesn’t look too bad to tow – for a large flat-bottomed boat that is.

One person who commented on the boat asked if a trolling motor or two would work for power. Roy said,

This would be an excellent boat to utilize electric power for sheltered waters but if wind, waves and current are strong in your intended cruising grounds, a four stroke 9.9 high thrust is recommended.

Roy made a series of videos to show you more about the boat, and maybe help you build a version of it for yourself.
