Twice this year have tried to set up a shuttle. Twice they have canceled. Trying to find a last minute replacement but probably will not happen. We mostly go it alone. If it is not real close by or not worth taking two cars we go up and down stream. That's the nice thing about Florida flat...

This is a real long shot. Would any one like to do the Ichetucknee Springs run from the north entrance to the bridge on the Santa Fe river in Florida this Saturday 5/7/25. Some one backed out on us. Weather is looking to be perfect. Planning to meet at the bridge at 7:00 am and be at the...

Gotta love the Northstar hull. Have one in fiberlair. Best flat water canoe I have ever paddled for a day trip. Was wondering when this project was going to see the light of day. Looks good. You are an honest man show the patches the way you have in the add. Have wasted a few tanks of gas and a...

Lot of interesting suggestions. Have to agree that dry box latches are noisy. The small box that is used for my point and shoot has scared wild life opening.

Found a broken Nikon D3100 that was able to get for a song. Glued the mirror back in. Seems to be working just fine. Just because I afford to lose this camera dose not mean I want to take too many chances with it. Would like to be able to bring along in the canoe. Looking a dry boxes and...

Well a pretty strip solo could with a little work and a glass top become a large coffee table. Just have to build a stand and something for the plate glass to rest on. Plan on having ​a light weight pocket cruiser as soon as I can find around here for when things get too heavy. Just resisted a...

Just want to chime in on the gunwales. If you do not have the skill or tools to make new gunwales your self try EDSCANOE.com. They have knock down gunwales that have very nice scarfs and can be shipped by UPS. Just use a good waterproof glue on the scarfs. Learned on this sight about tight...

Mihun09 the problem is I can afford it and resell later when need cash for different canoe. Mike McCrea to quote you "I’m still looking for a lightweight composite rebuild with rotted gunwales. " That's what I am supposed to be looking for and how my Wildfires and royalex Explorer came to...

While browsing Craigslist tonight a just listed and in almost show room floor shape Mad River Kevlar Explorer showed up. Not twenty minutes from my house. Heck most of my canoe purchases have been late night last minute three hour drives each way. So close by. Even has wood paddles. One of...

Often paddle before dawn. Use a glow sick on a home made clamp set up and a head lamp. The glow stick goes on the stern deck. Also have gone out looking for bio luminescence at night with a group. Used front and rear glow sticks then. Too many others and needed to make sure was seen. Being...

We FL paddlers do not seem to post much on here. But there are some here. Welcome to to forum.

March would be good for something in Ocala. February is going to be used up by trying to take a group from church on black water creek. Although any one can come along.

Would love to get together with some of you and put faces to the personality's that I love hearing from. Drooling over your canoes would be great too. Do not get to see too many around this area. Paddling paradise and all I see are double blades. Any way it has been a warm winter and water...

Dose panting the outside of the shop count? Painted the outside of the shop on two sides this last weekend. Just have to put new siding on the other two sides and then paint them also. Just did the roof recently too. Wood buildings do not hold up with out a lot of maintenance in Florida...
