Welcome Yassine. Marrakech... as in C.S.N.& Y's. Marrakech express?

It's looking great.

That Otca is looking great!, thanks Robin and Bob!

I like the new header image Robin and the nice canoe Stripperguy.

No Title I have an 8 x 8' w/2' walls, 8' peak, no internal frame, just a center pole and an external ring at the peak, so if a tree branch is available you can tie a rope to the ring, sling it over the branch and pull up the peak and tie it off, eliminating the center pole. It's gotten a lot...

That's a nice find Robin. Now that's a solo canoe I can appreciate! Not that there's anything wrong with a dedicated solo...just not my thing.

Nice job Robin. That's a good price, it'll go quick.

Thanks for your response YC. That's a good explanation I can relate to. I enjoy my canoes, especially the w/c canoes I have. But I also have a kayak that I enjoy in Florida and the big water lakes in the Adirondacks.

" In order for canoeing to survive it needs some modern edginess". No it doesn't. "Plastic kayaks appeal to people with no paddling skills and don't plan to get any" That's a broad brush you're painting a group of people with and makes no sense. " Free style shows the way" Really?

Nice job Bob and Robin!

Sounds like a great time Robin! Good luck tomorrow.

Looking good Robin! Nice lines on that Chestnut. I put my restoration on hold until it warms up a little, the wood stove outside my shop I use for keeping my hands warm isn't cutting it. Nice shop you're working in over there.

That's a beauty Robin, and a good price for sure. Is the restoration your handy work? Nice job to whoever restored it.

Nice video, great shop, thanks Robin.

No Title I use a Stonebridge candle lantern, bringing two during shoulder seasons when nights are longer. I like the light that comes from Beeswax candles best.

I really like that they fold flat. I have a Titanium twig stove and it works good. It's small and but doesn't fold flat, so I have to carry it in a separate container so it doesn't get crushed, which just takes up more room in my summer kit. I might have to get one of these. Thanks

Back at you Greywolf, and everyone else. And yeah, thanks Robin! You have a thicker skin then me, that's for sure.

Norton, Thanks, I hope to have the otca on the water by early summer. Sometimes I just hang out in my shop play darts and have a beer or two. Hanz, I'm always learning something new about restorations myself. I see you live on Long Island, some nice canoeing options for you. I live upstate but...

No Title Bring it all I say, at 61 I have to keep testing myself. But... in summer months, I go light, because I don't stay in one spot for long. 15' w/c canoe. Hennesey Hammock ( best sleep ever ). Titanium twig stove, Ramen, dried fruit and granola. Picture - 20' OT, gear for two old Men for...

No Title Robin, I've had all the material for this project for three years but have didn't have the time to get started. I retired for a second time last August, I think it'll stick this time...I'm ready not to ever go back, having too much fun. I remember that trip, I still use that 18'er for...
