For brothers Andrew and Kevin, the boathouse at their lakeside family cottage has been "anything but" for as long as they can remember. Instead of a cozy sleeping bunkie where guests wake to the best views of the lake on the property, as originally envisioned by their mom and dad, it's been little more than a neglected storage area. All that is about to change this weekend when the brothers decide to turn their parents' dream into a reality, updating this untidy space into all it was meant to be and more. New walls, ceilings, furniture and decor -- there are going to be plenty of surprise makeovers in store when the boys fashion the Ultimate Boathouse Bed and Breakfast.

This weekend, brothers Kevin and Andrew are putting a unique spin on yet another college mainstay. Upon realizing that their newly-installed driveway might in fact be the flattest, most level piece of ground on their lakeside family cottage property, the brothers seek to take full advantage by serving up the Ultimate Cottage Driveway Tennis Court -- a multi-use area that's not just for cars, but also doubles as a playing surface for a variety of racquet sports including tennis, badminton and squash. A retractable multipurpose net, scoreboard, VIP spectator lounge and elevated umpire chair are just some of the many features the brothers will be looking to ace.

While brothers Kevin and Andrew are used to having their cottage building projects go downhill, it's never been intentional... until now. This weekend, the brothers are in a race to the bottom -- of the hill, that is -- when they go head-to-head in their Ultimate Soapbox Derby Racers. The brothers are putting pedal to the metal -- or more accurately, metal to the pedals -- fashioning speed machines using whatever they can beg, borrow or steal (from each other, naturally). The stakes are high and the hill even higher -- "winning" this race might just mean reaching the finish line in one piece. Get your crash helmets on and buckle up -- this one is bumpy Brojects ride you don't want to miss!

It's another summer day at the cottage and for brothers Kevin and Andrew, there's no better way to stay cool than with a quick dip in the lake followed by a scoop of ice cream. Of course, what would make it even better is if they didn't have to wait until they came back ashore to partake in tasty frozen treats. Starting with an old ice cream bike, the boys are attaching a table, benches, a soda fountain, and floatation to create a seaworthy ice cream parlour for serving up ice cream floats in the middle of the lake. Decorated in a fun shark theme, the BrojectsFloating Ice Cream Bike is sure to make everyone in the water scream for ice cream.

While brothers Kevin and Andrew may be a little short on food up at their lakeside cottage property, they're not starved for ideas on how to solve their dilemma. Since the foundation of a delicious sandwich is great bread, the boys are sinking their teeth into the Ultimate Bread Oven: a barrel-vault wood-fired brick oven that not only looks impressive but also produces exceptional artisanal loaves. Piling brisket and chicken into the smoker and whipping up a feast of homemade toppings, fillings and spreads, these bros are rising to the challenge -- better bring an empty stomach and plenty of beer!

Campfire sing-alongs are the highlight of the cottage experience for brothers Kevin and Andrew at their lakeside family retreat and this weekend, they've invited guests from all around the lake for the ultimate end-of-summer hootenanny. Always seeking new ways to make a splash, the bros are moving their fire pit from land to water and floating their jamboree out onto the middle of the lake. It's not going to be smooth sailing but they're going to try with a little help from their friends -- their engineer pal Walker is on the way and he's bringing his own brothers along for the ride. Time to tune that old guitar and grab a paddle, the Brojects Ultimate Floating Fire Pit is ready to rock!

The weather is good and almost everyone is dredging. Emily complains of not making enough and needing to get on the gold; most of her income this year has been to pay off Zeke. Glen still can't find his Dragon and reluctantly begins working on the Minnow. Vernon is facing the end of the line, while the Pomrenkes crew stays solidly on the gold. Scott gets back to work on the AU Grabber, but his return may be short-lived.

While Hank tests Mother Nature by staying out dredging in the storm, Shawn races to bring his dredge home. Scott manages to get fired...again. Emily and Glen head far inland to river dredge. Left on their own back in Nome, her crew sows seeds of mutiny. Kris almost drowns from faulty equipment and Steve R.'s inattention.

With the new backhoe fully operational, Shawn is out to prove he is 'Mr Gold'. Vernon's promises and Emily's apologies do nothing to convince their crews to return. Zeke returns with a tasty new way to make it rich in Nome. He also puts an end to his friendship with the Riedel family.

The spectacular red landscapes of Utah’s Canyonlands are as beautiful as they are inhospitable. Like outlaws of old who were known to eat their own horses out of desperation in this forlorn place, Stroud will cannibalize the mountain-bike he has ridden into the middle of nowhere. As well as these scavenged bike parts to aid him, he also has a multi-tool, a magnesium flint stick and an old energy bar that he uses for a purpose other than eating.

In the remote winter bound forests of Northern Ontario, a crashed plane lies in the snow beside a frozen lake. But this plane didn’t crash here. The plane wreck has been air dropped from a helicopter to provide the perfect conditions for Survivorman to simulate being the victim of a plane crash. For a week Les will have to survive in this brutally cold and snowy wilderness with only an axe, multi-tool and a single blanket to aid him.

Living “off the land” takes on a new meaning as Survivorman Les Stroud casts off for a week at sea. With no food and only a bare minimum of equipment, Les will be set adrift in an inflatable life raft off the coast of Belize. Battling hunger, thirst and the Caribbean heat, he must also keep his cameras dry to film the ordeal. To top it off, not only does the life raft have a few bad water leaks, needing constant bailing but it also leaks air, requiring Les to frequently re-inflate it using only a hand pump. Survivorman is in for a busy 7 day adventure.
