    Florida's Designated Paddling Trails - Very Detailed Site

    The Everglades is fascinating! One trip is not sufficient. I have never just followed the Wilderness Waterway It is a one note as it does not visit more than two ecosystems ( the Glades has 8). I have gone north of it and also along the Gulf Shore. Done 10 10 day trips and want to do one...

    The History of the Curtis Dragonfly and Shouldered Tumblehome

    I believe stepped rocker is not new. DY designed the Loon Works boats and they do exhibit that. Loon Works was in existence early 90's to 2015 My Curtis Nomad has shouldered tumblehome too so it was used in more than one early Curtis boat.

    One All-Around Canoe for Maine Tripping

    If you want to paddle Maine rivers no matter what the water levels, RX and T Formex are the way to go. Yes I have lived in Maine for 25 years and have paddled the Allagash in a Kevlar boat but the water levels were quite high and a wrap not going to happen. If you can scrape Uncle Henrys...

    Lake George, NY: Cleanest in U.S.

    you can thank zebra mussels. I am sure they play a part. Lists like that are ridiculous. Drinking water for Portland comes out of Sebago. On my lake many homes draw from the lake ( they do use water filters in the kitchen)

    Fibbing To Your Spouse About Canoe Stuff

    not fibbing, but not prediscussing either. I bought a paddle at a WCHA Assembly and thought I could safely take it home and break the news later...much later. It was a fancy birdseye maple hand carved $270 paddle I got at auction ( for a good cause of course). I was planning on using that...

    Pine Sap

    Its not every tomato. Just once in about every ten. Its easy to field sample but a jolt when you expect a summer tomato taste and get a taste like varnish
