Hello from Rhode Island

[NewEnglandCanoe]

Hey folks, stumbled upon this site while looking for canoe modification ideas. I just recently bought a Pelican canoe from Craigslist and have been spending the past couple weeks gearing it up for a fishing style canoe. I can't post pictures at work, so when I get home, I will create a thread showing my progress. It's my first canoe in my 41 years of living, so don't hate on a newb....lol.

Nice, Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Welcome to the paddling community NewEnglandCanoe and congrats on picking up your first canoe.

Yes welcome and it's never too late to aquire your first canoe. What you will also learn from this site is that you also can never have too many canoes!

Welcome NEC, we'll have you tripping in no time and this will be the 1st on many canoes by the time we're done with you.

Looking around, I see more topics here are geared towards tripping, which is really cool, but where would I post a thread about my canoe build??

Start a thread in DIY about fixing up your canoe.
