Plot Synopsis

MY FLOATING HOME is a half-hour reality series that follows homeowners as they build homes that float on water. In the series opener, "Giant Eco Home," Michelle and Bill, an outdoor loving couple, build an eco-friendly floating home packed with innovative features. The couple hires an architect to design a curved roof covered in grass and solar panels and an underwater basement with a window where they can view fish in the lake. With the environment in mind, they re-use 100 year old cedar logs for their interior cladding and wardrobes. Then, in the second episode, "Big City Living," a young couple builds a dream floating "starter home" in a marina with stunning views of the Vancouver Mountains on one side, and the Vancouver Skyline on the other. The home is complete with an office to work from, and an exterior fireplace to save space within the open concept living plan.

Season 2 of MY FLOATING HOME premiered on Thursday, November 30, 2017 from 9-10pm ET/PT, as FYI debuted back-to-back new episodes:

"Waterside Family Home" (9pm): The Baris family live in the Netherlands, in the heart of canal country with dreams of building a floating home on the local waterways. Their ambitious design includes floor to ceiling windows along the length of the first level, and a fun underwater space on the ground level with a den and bedrooms for the kids. Narrow locks, shallow water and low bridges threaten the new build every step of the way, but the home finally makes it to its' new mooring site and the family begin a new idyllic life on the water.

"Wild View Cottage" (9:30pm): Linda's dream is to build a floating home and moor it at Maple Bay Marina on Vancouver Island, positioned so it overlooks her favorite nature reserve--Chisolm Island. When the extra weight of the glass requires complex engineering to stop the walls from collapsing, the building process proves to be more complicated that she had originally expected. In the end, her spectacular floating home nests on the emerald waters of the bay, offering 360 degree views of the surrounding nature.
