Life is short and not a dress rehearsal…live your bliss.

Not an expert but very familiar with the Fire series….not sure those gunnels are factory…fasteners don’t look right on the thwarts.

You are one talented fellow!

Great stuff…thanks Glenn

Bent ribs with him one day—(think it was while a bunch of us were at his place shooting the FS instructional video). To someone not experienced in such matters it seemed like magic. One of my biggest lifelong regrets is having sold the Mistral he made for me and the Button he made for my better...

I do SOOO miss Tom…thanks Glenn.

To each his own....own trip, own hull, own paddle, own reason for choice of all. My choice and 2¢...canoe.

Took 3 days private instruction at NOC many years ago and it was top notch…from all I have heard it’s only gotten better. If Riversport is still active on the Yough that would be a good option also. Used to hang out there…but again, many moons ago.

Great bit of history, thanks. Had a Flashback from MR at one point during the prodigious parade of paddling vehicles that passed through my garage.

Check in the mail....as always MANY thanks...also not necessary to add site supporter

I'm no builder, just an appreciator and they look great to me!

Looks like GREAT fun! Look forward to your reports next season.

Great report. Thanks for your efforts on the water and at the keyboard.

Nice report. Thanks for sharing.

Tent those ‘maters now that they aren’t setting new fruit? LOVE cherry tomatoes!

If you really feel the need try clear vinyl tubing from your hardware store. Slit an it will hold onto the gunnel nicely.

Said I would never pay for a demo day but I will now retract that. Love the idea of it going to a charity. Kudos to Collinsville, other retailers please take note.

Agreed!

Welcome! You live in one of my fave areas…the UP! So pretty! Enjoy your return to paddling. This site is a wealth of good info from good people. Glad to have you aboard. Edit: guess I misread your post as being in the UP….but any part of Michigan is great!

Campfire Grill in Flatrock NC has a nice OT WC hanging in the restaurant. Not really canoe country (but there are some paddling opportunities around). (Couldn’t see serial number for ID.)
