Mine has a nylon canopy, not mesh, and the entry has two layers, the door is mostly mesh but it also functions as a window and can be completely closed. The window on the back can also be completely closed. I do think it meets the OPs criteria.

Kelty Cabana also looks similar. Not bug proof though I don't think. https://www.kelty.com/cabana/

Its a special southern hemisphere compass.

Here in the Upper Connecticut River Valley we were under an air quality index watch yesterday, but it was mostly confined to western Vermont west of the Green Mountains. Hasn't been all that noticeable, to me, here on the river. And has been lifted today.

By coincidence, I have two boats that don't have stickers! PM on the way.

Today is the anniversary of D-Day. I'm sure we all know that, but I always think it is worth acknowledging. And tomorrow would have been my father's 97th birthday. For what it's worth. His 18th birthday was the day after D-Day and the day he enlisted in the USMC.

Towel day today.* *Obscure Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy reference.

Sorry to hear, but glad it wasn't worse. Could easily have been. Many close calls for me over the years, but so far so good. And get the bike checked by a shop. If your wheels are that trashed, I bet the frameset is too. And get a new helmet.

So. Who's observing? https://safeboatingcampaign.com/news/wear-your-life-jacket-at-work-day-is-may-19-2023/

Good stuff. Thanks. I've got to send a team to look for evidence of a long abandoned portage as part of my job in the next month or so. Guess I'll tell them to be on the lookout for cached boats.

Stumbled across this today. Billed as a kayak loader, but looks like it will work with a canoe. https://www.ezrecreationalracks.com/store/p1/best-kayak-roof-rack-carrier/kayak-loader/kayak-loading-help/roof-loader-kayaks.html#/

Not really sure of the point of that thing. I just set the bow of the boat on the top of the hatch, making sure it's far enough forward that when I lift the stern the bow will land on the rear crossbar. So it just pivots on the top of the hatch, not slide on it. Then I just slide the boat...

A good reminder to have your name and number on your boat. Which I've been pretty lax about lately. Haven't seen any of those orange stickers made for that purpose lately. Anyone got a hack? Electrical tape and a sharpie?

A paddler as well. https://kawarthanow.com/2017/12/07/gordon-lightfoot-donates-canoes-to-canadian-canoe-museum/

Good kids. Not the digging part, but the recognizing they had something part and getting the pros involved. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/apr/21/north-carolina-lake-native-american-canoe

Have you looked at Boatguard SPF 50?

We have a couple of REI Camp Low Chairs that we bring along for picnics. They've seen a lot of use, and have held up well. Wouldn't want to carry them far though. https://www.rei.com/product/185780/rei-co-op-camp-low-chair

I'd be on the phone to Northstar.

Are you dealing direct with Northstar or going through a dealer? And are you communicating via email or phone?

Not a dog person. Why does it have to attach to the seat?
