    Black Cherry Phoenix

    ABT, go to a place that caters to artists and they will have Sharpie markers in colors that aren’t the norm and you will find a permanent marker that is close to or a near exact match, they will hide those scratches.

    Roof rack that can hold two canoes

    Not sure what year your 4 Runner is but Yakima says up to 78” wide round bar is available for 4 Runners. Erica, what type/shape of Yakima bar do you presently have? I have a 2023 Subaru Outback that I use Thule 65” long square bars. I just went on Inno racks website and they have a rack for 2010...

    Must have medical items?

    Depending on one’s age having someone with you wouldn’t be a bad idea. I heard that an older gentleman lay in his home for four days before anyone checked on him. He is now in a facility and was severely damaged from his stroke.

    Comparing speed and efficiency of single vs. double blade paddle

    What I found when I switched from a narrow pack canoe to a wider pack canoe that the 230 cm paddle I use to use was not in the water very long and I had lost efficiency. When I switched to a 250 cm paddle with the wider canoe my speed increased significantly.

    Possible Solution for Subaru Gen 6 Rack

    About the only thing I dislike on my 2023 Subaru Outback XT is the factory rack. I have had a Thule square bar rack since my 2014 and 2017 BMW’s and it has served me well for 9 years. So I have been searching for a way to use the Thule on my Subaru and I may have found solution. Thule no longer...

    First Paddle in NW Solo

    Outback Fixed for Canoeists

    Yes, that’s the only thing I dislike about our 2023 Outback Limited XT, the rack. I am going to try Inno INFR mounts to attach my Thule square bars on the aluminum corners of the current rack. The rack on the new 2026 Outback is going to be good for carrying canoes.

    Roof rack that can hold two canoes

    Ok, no need for pictures. My 2023 XT has the not canoe friendly factory rack. Wish it had the Wilderness rack, but looks like the new 2026 Outback will have a better rack.
