The Vessel

The Unsinkable 3

Built tough. Proven reliable. The Unsinkable 3 is the workhorse of Elbow Lake — a purpose-built barge with an 18,000 lb capacity designed to move serious loads across the water without breaking a sweat.

What roads can't reach, water can. If your cabin property is only accessible by lake, this is how you get the job done.
