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!

I Love this , great ideas , always wanted a house boat…
Wowwweee!! Great video you guys!
Thanks so much you two <3
agree love the boat house, I want one😍😍😍
wow what a details there is absolute put effort in this perfect wood work i love it, it is beautiful
The wood work, attention to detail, hammock…TOP NOTCH HOUSE BOAT!!!
The fact he did this by himself is really incredible 👏
He doesnt have ONE employee in a shop that big?
Sorry , but he had help . So did Noah .
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!
This is doable since every single boat we build is customized. We also have an all solar version of this boat, including the outboard engine. Özgen (ozgen@daigno.ca)
@Ozgen Eryasa kevin Costners Waterworld is one step closer to fruition …lloll….i can see a whole floating city, one day.
loved his first build, love so much the second as well. Truly amazing attention to detail and comfort. Wood work is what makes this boat.
We are currently developing two new models… check our website occasionally for announcements. Özgen (ozgen@daigno.ca)
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.
Gorgeous piece of art attention to details
I’d really appreciate some subtitle converting from American system (gallons, pounds, etc) to the International system.
Still a great video, loved that boat!
Total weight kg something like 2700 to 2800 kg 15 gal water tank is about 60 liter.
American system? French system?
You mean the Imperial(English) system and the Metric(French) system.
Visit our website, dimensions are displayed both in imperial and metric. Since our clientele is mostly in the USA we present imperial first. Özgen (ozgen@daigno.ca)
Hugo Barrera How about you learn the conversions, it’s not exactly rocket science and anyone with an IQ in double digits should be able to do a quick approximation with a fraction of a second worth of thought!
You know you can look all that information up online if you’re really interested.
I guessed it right, $70k.
That’s 70,750 USD, or 94,500 CAN. Özgen (ozgen@daigno.ca)
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.
The rooftop can be canvassed with solar panels for additional power. Also, we are currently designing a new model, Le Muskoka, with a completely enclosed front deck , and windows all around (http://daigno.ca/en/assets/images/textes-web-daigno-2020-en-1-1938×1232.png). We should unveil it sometime early 2021. Visit our website occasionally for announcements. Özgen (ozgen@daigno.ca)

Oui, magnifique, j’en rêve!!!
what a beauiful handcrafted Home! SO UNIQUE!….Thanks for sharing Richards Design of His New House Boat <3
Is this boat operated by a conversion unit using propane and not gasoline?? Brilliant; Features are beautifully done; what is the cost and docking ( slip) run
Gorgeous…..can’t believe how much he fit in that small space. Very talented boat builder.
Living the dream.
That hammock sold me. I need to be laid up in that,today.
I would love to have a boat like this. I would increase the inside space and decrease the outside space. Do a full bedroom and full bathroom Kitchen with stove and country sink and refrigerator full size . Make for full time home🤓💃💃💃
Wondering how much would be to ORDER ONE? LIVE w/o paying RENT.
That guy is a true craftsman. And now he gets to live in his work of art surrounded by nature. Pretty dang cool.
Can’t wait until my kids leave my house. Living in one of these would be perfect for my life style. No kidding about the kids. lol
