Solo Camping 24 Hours In A Floating Tent

Mav is quite simply the coolest man in the world. Even when things seem sketchy. He flashes that smile and rides it out. You’re amazing and we all thank you for this content.

Crazy how this man just keeps coming up with new ideas! Imagine those dudes just casually going for an evening fishing session to roll up on a floating campsite, lol.

Going down some rapids in the floating tent would take Mav to a whole new level.

The floating tents like this one that ive priced out also come with floating dock that goes inside the tent. gives more support for youself and any gear you have inside the tent with you.

Your motto has been getting me through these tough months as of lately. I know it's something small but it's a great affirmation to live by when you are feeling down. My usual motto is "just keep swimming" but lately I've been saying, "keep on trucking" and I've been doing just that! Thanks Mav. Stay safe out there

I was so worried about you doing the floating tent, but when you said your friend was there, I was relieved. It's great that while you have the most unique adventures, you think about safety as well!

What a wonderful friend you have there Mav. He's waiting by himself in case anything goes south. He has my appreciation.

Mav sold me on never wanting to camp in a floating tent 😂

Another design flaw is that if you zip up the door...how do you get out if it starts to sink in the middle of the night.

Your music taste never ceases to amaze me, Paramore Is legendary!

Ya know how people become great people, Mav's parents.

Mav-that is too cool!!! I love your channel. Just stumbled on it one day about a year ago and have thoroughly enjoyed your videos. Keep it up, man.

I’ve never seen Mav so nervous of his sleeping arrangements! I’d be freaking out also!

Well that was interesting and glad it all worked out for you.
I think you should do a camp night in a tree house while preparing a fantastic meal for yourself.

Proud of you man, been watching since you started your channel when you were in Alex Peric's videos. Its no surprise that you have come so far !

Now I want to go do that. Very cool.

I rarely ever sleep good when camping 🏕️
That tent looks like a lot of fun !!!

These Mav videos always bring a smile to my face and joy to my day

I think it's a cool idea, but my biggest problem with it is the the door. If you want to keep insects out you need to close it, but if you do and the thing somehow flips over you could be in trouble, even if it's still floating. I know it's not the most likely thing to happen, but it's a possibility nonetheless and that'd be too much for me if I'm on the water.

Definitely the best clothing line I’ve seen in yt

The drone shots were incredible!

Makes me appreciate Steve's and Crazy Neighbor's homemade pontoon boat even more. I'd feel much more secure when it comes to cooking and sleeping and navigating. Interesting experiment though.

Mav!! I'm new to your channel and I must say no one does outdoor activities better than you man. Keep doing what you're doing. 🔥👍🏾

Good afternoon. I was very pleased with the video. The inflatable house can be used both on the water and on land, conveniently and comfortably. Thank you Mav and as always you are super!!! The lake is very beautiful. Hugs to you!!!!😍💓💓💓💋

I'd like to see you camp on land in it, maybe do your own design since this one had major issues!! Looks fun, I think good for early morning fishing 🎣 then napping 😂

The Tent ⛺ LOOKS cool! 👍

To make the floor a bit more walkable A small rounded over piece of ply could serve you well
I'd try camping a few feet in the water with a small bridge to it or next to a floating dock.
I enjoy your content, keep it up!

I would love to see this in action with Steve and Crazy Neighbor when/if they do their week long river trip again. Thanks for another great video!

As a lifetime boater! Use a extension cord spool from Home Depot to wrap your anchor rope up and it will save you all the headaches of tangled rope!

I bet that idea looked soo good on paper 😊
Bravo Mav !

on the next episode, Mav goes camping in an actual kids bounce house, while on the water. Get the castle one with huge slides. :) (also, cook fire on a plastic bubble island...what could go wrong) lol

Mav, I don't know anything about fishing, cooking, or traveling. But I enjoy your videos brother 🤙🏼 They give off a very therapeutic vibe and I appreciate the way you share your trips with us. Keep on truckin 🙌🏼😎

I honestly felt way better about this when you said you have a friend on shore just in case.

This has some old school Mav vibes.

Great video! I like to see you mention some of the precautions you take, your buddy camping near by. Might save some one that decides to try these types of things.

Hey Mav, I'd highly recommend the Nemo Fillo fior a camping pillow! it packs a bit larger than the others but is so so comfortable and I can't imagine using anything else anymore

These Mav videos always bring a smile to my face and joy

I wanna see an inflatable tent on a frozen lake.

MAV Hey there !!! That is something !!! Always wanted to stay out on the lake in a pontoon boat close that baby in with refrigerator toilet bed in the screened in area !!! On the end would be the motor but off to the side the grill for COOKING !!! Can always shower on the other end of the pontoon boat in the rain or jump into the water !!! That is retirement for me !!! Going around the lake would have been GRAND for me !!! Love the things you do on this channel!!! Keep ON TRUCKEN

I enjoyed this. Love the inflatable tent. I would like to see you go Camping with a Hot Tent

some kind of "peice together" flooring, I think, would be ideal. It's just something to give you a little more confidence with that tent. All in all, it seems like that is a product that you get what you pay for. With every floating section being connected means that one pin hole can ruin the whole trip. It needs to be constructed like one of those rental bounce house companies, and then I would have a bit of confidence in it.

Mav, I dont know if someone already mentioned, if so sorry.
You said that the seam was stitched once and then opened up again, what left holes in the material. But these holes are tracks of the loom, they come from the webbing process. If you buy a fabric from the roll you will always find those zickzack lined holes on the side of the fabric. So your swimming tent is not made of reopened sews or seams, its just good sewn material

Hi Mav, your camping videos in the snow are epic and I hope you keep it up! I’m still waiting for a camping trip to Alaska to see the northern lights. Now that would be an epic video!
-Randall

That paramore song in the beginning Mav, great song selection

OMG, I would have camped in 6 feet of water, had a life jacket nearby, worn a sheathed Bowie knife to my leg and prayed for no lightening storm! Man, Mav, you must be a 🐱 with nine lives! 😂

Can’t wait for winter camping!😅

Just had my first son. Loosing sleep but atleast I got Mavs videos to keep me entertained 😂 thanks bud

Hey Mav, not even sure if you read these or not, just wanted to say I love your content. As someone who has never been "outdoorsy" or camper, or fisher you make everything seem so fun and interesting. You've peaked my interest on doing these things after years of never even thinking about doing something like this. Thank you for all the awesome content. I do have a question/content idea if it's something you'd be interested in. What if you did a video, maybe even a series, of you maybe taking a new person or fan who has never gone camping/fishing and take them out on a trip and show them the ropes? I'd absolutely love to experience something like this so I'd definitely volunteer! There is so many things I'd love to try, especially something winter/ice fishing!

It looks like a floating bounce house. 😂

thankyou for uploading early for the people from Europe!

This video was pretty in-tents

YEEEES A NEW MAV VIDEO! With Paramore too! ❤

You know its gonna be a good time when Mav drops a video

This is what it’s all about man. Just living life to the fullest!

Well Mav, you've done it again. You came up with yet another unique way to camp. Keeps us curious as to what you will come up with next. Maybe camping on a signal buoy out on the Great Lakes? Keep them coming Mav.

Liked within seconds . Paramore!! Bringing back my child hood ❤

Mav don't poke to hard we want you safe 💙

@Mav I have experience with a lot of inflatable furniture and accessories. What you should have done was get a sheet of plywood and line the bottom of the tent so you had a hard surface to stand on, and walk on, and also place your mattress and everything else on, and it would be level. Next time that's what you should do.

A clear bottom would be so cool, like maybe just a donut in the center thats clear on both sides to see through or just make the whole bottom clear to see into the water while on the tent.
You should see if they will make a sample one for you!
Would make a great part 2 video!!!

Mav, you are the face of adventures! Always an excellent video when you post. 💯✊🏾💪🏾👍🏾

Mav it. So nice to see you livin your dream. Thanks for sharing ❤

Using the hand pump wrong, the two handle looking things are actually what you stand on and pull the other side... That's why the hose was falling off

That paramore song brought me back. Ahh nostalgia, thanks Mav!

16:43 as a Mexican that's loved your video's i was in tears you are still invited to our BBQ so we can teach you how to say it correctly chili CON CARNE there is NO D in there 😂😢😂

4: zombies can’t get you in 30 feet of water. 👌🏼

There's no way I would actually sleep well in that death trap lmao

Hey Mav. This is relaxing & very cool. When you come out there on the water in this ⛺ You definitely just chill.. I agree with the scared to light fire in there. Whoa! The ventilation is low! Do Enjoy, & keep on Trucking Mav.. ❤️😙🐞

Thank you for all your hard work Mav. Appreciate the entertainment over the years!

I can *smell the inside of that new tent just from watching this video 😆

This was a great video Mav. This is just a idea and not me trying to tell you what to do. It probably would work if you cook while you stay in the tent and pull your kayak around and putting some type of board on it or something like that. That’s if you do decide to do this again. Which I hope you do. Much love and support. God bless you on any endeavor you take on.

the irony of a electric pump shaped like a grenate just being blown up by the electric output is pretty funny. Also: You eating those MREs reminded me of my aprenticeship in Denmark last year for my job training. I lived by myself (or at least without my parents) for the first time ever back then and since the two classmates I went with where headed home the weekend right in the middle of our trip I spent two day completly by myself. I had some micro wave burgers (which tasted horrible) and one of those instand bolognese things, which honestly was just as weird, but not as disgusting as that dry ass microwave burger that thing somehow managed to be too hot, to cold, to soaky and to dry all at the same time, it was a wild experience for sure. God, how much I miss those two months, I may have failed my exam while being in Denmark, yet I had an absolute blast being there and living life. These kinds of videos really do remind me how awesome life will be, once I finally graduated school and actually geting to work and live and just go out exploring the world man

Mav always comes up with great camping ideas.

oh, floating tent on the water! what a lovely video to watch, Mav your channel is always my inspiration, keep up the good work brother! ❤

Good show, Mav !
Thank you for the entertainment ! 👍

That is the prettiest lake especially with the sunset. I would love a cabin right there. Nice video Mav. Though it wasn’t the best night sleep glad you didn’t end up in the water.

Concerned that if you were asleep and it began to sink you could be trapped and unable to get out and die. Maybe a razor knife on a lanyard around your neck just in case. Or just don’t use it!

I think I need Mav as a fishing buddy. Then maybe for once I could out fish somebody😂😂

Like maybe if they put a huge square of like cork or surfboard floating stuff under the membrane, that would be so much safer and screens of course and easy exits as well.

This is so Dangerous in ways that stuff can go wrong lol, so i am glad MAV is doing this so i can watch.

It’s a great night when mav drops a banger on us.

the sunset is gorgeous

The city I live in here in Ohio has floating tents on the river during the summer that you can rent out and stay in. They look similar to the one you bought but they are hand made locally by a fly fishing float business. I've never tried them out but I bet they are neat. The business is called Smith Fly

You could use it as extra bedroom for company. Put it in the backyard. Need to fix someway to get air flow though. I'd stay in it. Fall or spring night would be excellent. Have a firepit. Pretty cool.❤❤❤❤

Now I want to camp in a floating tent on the water. Awesome video!

Hi mav, that looks great fun & you didn't sink you have all the fun when u do there's camping trips great stuff.. Take care of yourself & it was good of you're friend being there on the main land, just in case you're boat driffied away from u when u were sleeping.😃

nothing better than watching mav on a nice gloomy day while eating dinner. Great times

You're amazing, Mav! Kind of the thinking man's risk-taker! A fun watch!

The Gatorade bottle. What I like to refer to in my work van as 'The executive restroom'.

Thank you Shopify, great service. I think someone needs a houseboat sponsorship

I’m selfish wishing these videos were always an hour longer😅

Sunday made. Thanks Mav!! Hello Mav fans. 😊

Nice seeing you fishing one of my old camping destinations - Hog"front" - lol! I hope you get it 😂

Im amazed you got out of the kayak and into the tent. I would habe flipped over

MAV! This one scared me! I'm glad YOU had fun😂

Time-lapse of the tent on water would of been cool to see how it moved with the anchors

Dang dude, it's absolutely crazy how much you've grown up since you started doing this RUclips thing.

I would not have been brave enough to cook inside that thing! 😮

Been watching for a little bit and must say you have a very good taste in music 👌

Going to sleep and never waking up due to drowning

Cool concept Mav; well done Bud! Enjoyed the video
