If I'm not mistaken, the "Blue Beauty recording raft" would be the equivalent of the honeymoon raft in the later part of this trip, and not the actual gear raft. Granted it would carry more gear than the average raft, but the bulk of the gear would be on an actual gear raft.

Rob is correct in "Blue Beauty" Michelle is the boatman on the raft used by Myleigh and Trey for Blue Beauty and the recording equipment. They actually travel semi-independently of the rest of the party, stopping at some spots the other rafts bypass but always stopping with the other rafts at night. I cannot find any mention in "Blue Beauty" of who is the boatman for the gear boat.

There is also a tantalizing statement at the end of Chapter 22 of "Blue Beauty." Trey mentions that Al has one more swamper than he planned. This is why Trey can go back to Spearfish Lake to start editing the recordings.
