yeh the yoke is pretty stout. It has a curved block that fits over the gunnel and then is pulled tight with a stainless bolt and the big thumb wheel.

Yes the bolts have all been eliminated. The seat is glued to the carbon pods which are glued to the inside of the boat. I wear a size 9.5 shoe and can still get my feet under the seat if I want to kneel. The only metal in the canoe are the two small "safety pin" style clips for adjusting the...

No Title Ok.....drove 20 hours round trip and got in at 5 am this morning. Slept for three hours and then unwrapped the boat, took some photos, and went for a paddle. I finally have a solo I am comfortable in...... I give it a 12 out of a possible 10. Cannot wait to get some gear in it and...

No Title Road trip tomorrow. Headed out at 0500 to go pick it up.

I ordered the Carbon tech package. It includes the carbon web seat. No additional charge for the seat.

great film. come on springtime....

and from the other side of the aisle I would offer...... Unfortunately there are overbearing rude badge heavy (usually younger) folks wearing badges. They are few and far between but they exist. Kinda like the few paddlers, boaters, drivers, hikers, hunters, fishermen/women etc. who are...

I have always used a soft pack with roll up top waterproof pack liners. Then inside the pack liners everything is in another waterproof bag, either a dry sack or a dry sack compression bag. I have not had any moisture issues to date with that set up. This year for my WCPP trip I bought a 30L...

Yellow I saw that post as well.....I am going to try very hard to NOT buy any more canoes for a couple of years...... Odyssey I will be putting a blankie, my snowshoes, and a camping stove with rations in the jeep based on the weather outlook.....I will try to sneak up there and back during a...

Glenn I talked to Scott yesterday.....he said that if you had questions about the lay up weights etc to give him a call. They will have my canoe done by Friday so I will probably check out the weather forecast and get up there next week to get it. I really like the scrim addition also. Toned...

No Title The Shearwater is taking shape. Out of the mold this morning..... Yellowcanoe do not view the last picture while rocking the rocking chair..... :)

No Title My Shearwater is being built......should be infused by the end of the day.....Hoping to be on my way up there soon. Couple of pictures....

OK just got off the phone with CCS. I ordered three packs, two thwart bags, a new 10x10 yellow tarp and some stakes and rope. moving what's left of the FR stuff to ebay.

at this time I have no plans to bag the carbon Northstar Polaris tandem or the new Shearwater. I am also not planning on getting them to awfully close to rocks either.

I flipped that 60 lb royalex boat in my pond and I was not happy with how little of the canoe was actually out of the water. I bought it for river trips and wanted a little extra for the class 2+ - 3 stuff I might run into. The bags are VERY nice and the owner (Shawn) of Fall Line was super to...

No Title I, like Uncle Skwid, lost hair early and worked outside my entire working life. I have had cancer removed from my temple and my doctor has been advising me to always wear a hat outside as well. I wear some sort of ball hat most of the time, but I am wearing my Tilley hat more and...

No Title When I bagged my Swift I used the method described by Mike McCrea. I was able to turn the canoe up on it's side and drill using a regular battery powered DE Walt. I used most of the parts from the NorthWater kit and it worked perfectly in the royalex boat. I had never done it before...

Timber Cruiser Jr./Palisades combo is sold. I returned your PM Barry and thanks!

All that is left is the saddle bags so I am moving them on to eBay.
