Quick Shout Out To the Bro Who Is Living On His Canoe In Boston Harbor
BOSTON (WHDH) — A strange sight in Boston Harbor — someone snapped a photo of a man in a tent on a barge in the middle of the water. That man is Michael Smith. He said no harbor, or barge, is his home. His only constant is his mode of transportation — his canoe. Even though he doesn’t stay in one place for long, Smith has caught the attention of the U.S. Coast Guard. “He’s kind of living off the area out there, both on land and on the water. But we certainly have visibility on him. We patrol every day along with the Boston police and as of right now he’s not doing anything illegal,” said Lt. Joe Klinker of the U.S. Coast Guard. What Smith is doing is considered recreation, and is legal, as long he stays in public waters.
Before the day is over I just wanted to give a quick shoutout to the guy who lives on his canoe in the middle of Boston Harbor. I’m digging his whole homeless canoe vibe. Play on playa!
Cant wait to see this guys corpse floating on the front page of the globe
Movembers over bro.
Looks like Switchblade Sam from Dennis the Menace to me.
Weird bird.
I guess carrying all that gear in the canoe didn’t leave any room for a toothbrush.
this guy is a walking example of gingivitis
Cue the bands of angry cube rats who secretly think this dude’s life is a lot cooler than theirs, but are gonna have to resort to making fun of as a means of shielding their own insecurities about how shitty their own lives are.
Keep doing you, canoe man. Keep doin you.
What a lazy ass blog this was.
The El Pres when his internet bucks run dry..
OWS Naval admiral of the fleet — Snaggletooth.
out on sea trials with the flagship of the fleet the newly christened non-Sea Going Ship “Handout”.
this dude’s beak rivals your pres
rearender your comment just gave me an aneurism and I wasn’t even drinking any.
Steve Burton is reporting that this guy drowned when his canoe capsized. take it to the bank
Seriously though, how come people don’t try to Squat anymore? This guy is a modern day 49er from the gold rush, as far as I’m concerned. No house on this land? Fuck it, it’s mine!
I’m sure Hizzonah Mumbles Menino will ruin this guy’s vibe real soon.
if this dude was brown we’d be reading a story about a failed terrorist plot in the harbor not a nautical homeless man. also how can this guy claim that docking a canoe is a difficult task? that’s pretty weak even for a bum..
I work on the harbor and have seen this smeed out there a few times. Guy’s a fucking nut job. Gets caught in the wind, almost always capsizes and spouts the crunchiest hippy arguments when the cops and/or coast guard tell him not to paddle in front of a fucking tug boat
Yep just a matter of time until he gets hit by the Hull MBTA ferry — awesome!
I’m sure he paddled in just long enough to vote for Bronco Bama before paddling right back out again.
Damn whites!
Is that a shark in the water?! No, just pres poking his nose out.
This man once approached me and a few friends while we were smoking a blunt near Hynes. He walked over to us, and handed me a flyer about all of the problems with the American education system. When me and a couple of my friends had finished reading it, truly perplexed by his end goal, he said “You probably already know why I came over here… I was hoping you might find that flyer interesting enough to let me smoke some of your pot.” Truly an interesting character.
Too bad Halloween has passed. El Pres could have dressed as Mike Smith. Mustache, Wig, Indiana Jones hat, canoe. Done. Fucking twins.
how many stranded boaters has Mike Smith eaten?
Doesn’t this fucker know that if he can just paddle south 1000 miles there will be hot chicks and nice weather in Florida? Hardo indeed.
Calm down he just got wasted and drove his car off a bridge on Chapaquiddick
Portnoy clanslan?
Ya right El Pres. You wouldn’t last one day, let alone one night living outside. Way too tough for you Brother!Play on Losa!
