the bouyancy and draft calculations. (so many people per box of raft as

um, also the larger the barge/raft the heavier the scantlings you need to
keep it rigid. put another way, the size of the scantlings limits the
number of boxes you could bolt together into a raft. don't forget those
sudden summer storms. SW Ontario seems to get more than its share.
