70% of the earth is covered with water, now you camp on it! A first of its kind inflatable, floating raft with a tent topper that allows you to sleep out on the water. Camp on your favorite farm pond, saltwater flat, spring creek or an eddy on your favorite river. The world is your waterbed. Sleep under the stars, on the water, feel the flow and let it lull you to sleep.

There are no tent poles, the tent structure is completely inflatable, and when inflated stands up to high winds without a problem. The raft body has three air chambers, two in the lower tube, one in the structure; these tubes inflate to 2.5 PSI. The floor is a 6" thick drop stitched high-pressure floor (similar to a paddleboard) that doubles as your air mattress; the floor inflates to 10 PSI. D-Rings on the tent body sides allow for easy anchor attachment.

The tent topper sides all attach and detach using heavy-duty hook and loop for the ability to use just the top and get in and out easily through the sides if the need arises. The tent fabric uses waterproof, fabric sealed with PVC coating and includes heavy-duty #8 zippers....

Additional Information

FLOATING TENT DETAILS
Six inches of air is all that sits between you and the lake’s surface. A third air tube blows up to erect the tent frame. And the whole enchilada inflates with an included foot pump.

You can use the raft portion of the product alone and float around on the lake. But really, it comes into its own unique glory with the tent pitched.

The tent walls and top all attach to the frame with hook-and-loop straps that “stand up to high winds without a problem.” Inside there’s standing room for anyone up to six-feet three-inches, according to SmithFly.
Two 10-PSI drop-stitched air tubes create a soft floor that, when combined with the rocking of the lake, make for an air mattress waterbed (bubble bed?).

The Shoal Tent is a delightful way to rock your way to sleep.

Who needs a waterbed when you can inflate a whole tent right on a lake? The Shoal Tent blends a boat with a tent and it also looks pretty awesome. The eight-foot-by-eight-foot monster tent uses air instead of poles to stay upright. And best of all, it floats....
