I know of at least one couple (search Youtube) that does serious tripping with their's. I tried one but found the freeboard a bit disconcerting.

I really wish I had taken pictures of my first build when I tried to pop it free of the forms and broke it.

Captain Ham-Fist, at your service.

Paradigm shift - smartphones have supplanted the PC.

Bob, Bobs, or Bob's Special.

Hi Adam - lots of info on builds here. Welcome.

We see things not meant for our eyes.

Trudging through the port How much further to go now Lake peaks through the trees

I'm about 45 minutes west of Rouses Point. Bienvenue!

I had a bad experience with a BeFree - premature clogging. I screwed on my backup and it clogged in short order, too. Now I have a Katadyn Pocket. It's heavy, but built like a tank, field strippable, and easy to clean. Recently we arrived on our "rest lake" - 2 nights without breaking camp. As...

I just got back from a trip with a new boat. I think the seat might be a bit high as I developed a hitch in my offside kidney/hip area. I think I was hunched over. This is to say that the boat you are paddling may also matter.

Here's the thing - and I'll preface this by saying that I will hold no ill-will if you decide my post should be deleted. They're MY photos. I've been a member of discussion forums long enough to have experienced a change of ownership whose philosophies "go against the grain," so to speak. I may...

One summer fishing trip I decided to bring my 7-month old GSP (Stradivarius Willhelm - Willy) with me to put him on to some inexperienced and slow ruffed grouse. I'm in the back seat with him on a leash and he had a very strong desire to sniff the back of the pilot's head. The thought of the...

Enjoying the grey, Glenn. Thanks.

I have a few, but one trip sticks out... We were closing the hunting camp for the year and had to pack all of the canned goods as well as load a cow and bull moose into a DHC-2. Two trips would be necessary and it was decided that the lightest person would accompany the 2 carcasses as well as...

Really nice, Glenn. The yoke on the hood is nice touch - showing off that trophy.

I hope I'm not being annoying interjecting my little snippets here - by no means do I have the experience as some of the others... For seat height, I take one of my shoes and make sure it can pass freely beneath - a matter of safety / avoiding hang ups.

I pained over that - information overload. I found it best to save that until the boat is fully outfitted then find the balance point and use that for the basis of your calculations. I have a 2" steel pipe from who knows where and I lay it on the floor and sit the hull on it - moving it fore and...

I don't remember how old I was - probably 10 or 12. We had a cottage in St Zenon, QC and the neighbour's son and I took his canoe out for a few hours on La Riviere Noire. No that one - I'd guess there about 50 rivers in QC that go by that name. Later, when I was 14, another friend and I took his...

Just a thought - a functioning flashlight is part of Transport Canada's legal requirements, along with a whistle, floating rope, and hard-sided bailing bucket.
