The day Of worrying over the
problem of getting a boat back
through the woods TO an almost in
accessible lake or stream is gone.
Sportsmen planning camping,
hunting, fishing or vacation trip
can now include a boat as part OF
their equipment-a boat THAI
weighs comparatively few pounds
and that can be carried in a COM
pact upper case no larger than the
ordinary travelling bag.
Solution of the problems Of low
ers of the outdoors-persons seek
ing spots that can only be reached
by boat, on waters where ordinary
boats are not easily available-are
the rubberized fabric boats now be-
ing manufactured by the Good
year Tire & Rubber company.
In addition to being light in
weight and easy to carry-occupy-
ing only a small space in the camp
er's pack-the new boats can be
inflated in a very few minutes, and
will remain afloat for an indefinite
period. One-man, two-man, four
man and seven-man sizes are avail
able, each equipped with an in
flation pump and the necessary
oars.
Shaped somewhat like conven-
tional boats, the new craft are con-
structed of extremely durable fab
ric, are very stable in the water and
due to their width and buoyancy
are almost impossible to capSize.
The bow is pointed and raised
slightly off the water, while the
stern is tapered, assuring maneu-
verability and ease in rowing, even
when a boat is loaded 10 capacity.
Fabris seats are placed in the con-
ventional manner. and side pock-
cts contain the initiation pump and
oars, in addition TO pliers and re-
pair kit
No sewed seams are found in the
three-ply rubberized fabric. all
seams being joined with a water
proof cement originally developed
especially for airship and balloon
envelopes. Cement seams eliminate
the possibility of threads rotting or
of moisture getting through the
needle holes to rot or deteriorate
the fabric.
After a boat is once inflated il
needs no attention for long per-
iods. Should an appreciable drop in
temperature occur. decreasing the
volume of air. more can be added
in a momtNt by use of the conven-
lent pump. The initiation tube or

If the Pirates have struck the
