What do you mean by "float"? Are you talking about a boat or do you mean to "float" as with an intertube?

an inflatable raft basically, but a large innertube would be fine too

Um, OK...

If you show up real early on a weekday with $2.50 you can take a bus: http://www.tcrpc-pa.org/srtp/SRTP_Chapter_05/hegins_valley.htm or could ask at the Doyle to get someone to drive you too.

Could be cheaper than buying something in Duncannon (not exactly a shopper's paradise) good enough to float without becoming the next feature on this page: http://www.harrisburgriverrescue.org/calls/rcalls.htm

Check with these guys, they run river trips in that area and set up shuttles.
