    J Winters "Kite" build

    I know you were shooting for lighter, but even so, 31 lbs is pretty impressive in my book.

    New IT Guy, Nonstick

    I agree, Mem. The flavor of this site is due to the personalities that participate and the common interest in tripping, whether it be in wood canvas or UL Kevlar or strip or skin on frame etc.

    You meet the nicest people on this forum!

    Snapper is right. I mentioned a trip I was planning to Robin up in the NE at the end of June in a PM and he offered to do the shuttle run for me. It is not an insignificant drive and his offer is what is making the 2 week trip possible. What a guy!! Thanks, Robin! Dave

    Wow! Impressive post. Do you need to carry a chainsaw and gas on this loop like you do on your trips with the kids? Dave

    Ain't been out yet, but...

    Ha Ha! I think 9 foot wide rack bars would get you a police escort around here, whether you wanted it or not. BUT, this story may come in handy: I had a friend who designed and built a sailboat that he trailered to TX from CT for a national championship regatta. The boat exceeded the maximum...

We were windbound for 3 days so the tracking dot didn't move and my wife started to get worried even after I told her not to worry unless it was moving faster than I can walk or paddle or it was headed out to sea...

    Age-related risk aversion

    Gavia, Glad to hear you are OK. It's a b*tch when things sneak up on you like that. I had a false alarm last Sep that was scary but after 2 days in ICU, 2 more on the heart floor, and many tests that showed I was perfectly healthy (all at the bargain price of about $12K!), I was sent home with a...

    Solo Canoe self rescue

    I ran across this looking for something else. Looks like too much gear for my tastes but it seems to work in flat water with no wind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHNu4q1Bsy4 Dave
