My chair. My cot. My reflector oven. I love baking out there.

I a I agree Marten. This is my second season using an encounter and I really going to appreciate this boat. Yeah it’s big but I do tend to take a lot of gear and it’s just perfect for me. Plus it gets a lot of compliments!

Just finished a three day solo trip from Long Lake to Tupper Lake via the Racquet River in the Adirondacks. The first day was quite fall like what temperature is not getting out of the 50s! Beautiful! I retired. My wood and canvas can do last year (sorry Robin) to day paddling. Got tired of...

I'm just South of Cazenovia off of Rt. 20. My work schedule is pretty flexible as well so I'll get back to you some time for a paddle. David
