    floating hammock stand

    Was looking at a gear rental place for a Spring trip and bumped into these:
    https://www.hammocraft.com/

    Was not looking for such a thing, thought it fun/funny so wished to share.

    I would capsize that thing with a quickness. It seems you would need perfect/even weight distribution for it to work. I think it looks super fun, in theory, i mean who doesn't like to float down a lazy river...but practically it seems it would be a nightmare. YMMV.
    “The word hammockable (Meaning: two trees that are the perfect distance apart between which a hammock can be hung) is not in the dictionary, but it should be.”

    Awesome! Not sure how feasible it is to float a river, but just floating in a lake would be great!

    Yes, fun but not sure it is practical. These guys look like they are having a good time though:

    Now, instead of a bear burrito, we have to deal with shark tacos.

    This looks like a lot of fun I have to say! Even if it was tippy, it would still be fun. Getting back on though.....not with these leg cramps.

    I'm pretty well convinced the last thing I would ever want to do is climb into that and think about being underwater wrapped up in the cordage and hammock. no thanks.
