Very nice! Good food, cool tent, no bugs.

Pat, nice aera. Is that a durston tent? If it is what poles do you carry? I always carry a tarp, either a 10x10 or a asymmetric. They have saved me a few times. With them, I carry a pre maid ridge line (like the one I use for a hammock tarp) and 6-8 guy lines of different lengths. You guys are...

Congrats, sweet boat. Depending on your rack system, there are "L" shaped holders, that secure the sides more, they bolt on. It's seems like boats with tumbohome are more subjective to "dancing around" on the rack, if that makes sense. But great boat hope you enjoy it!

Patrick, what is the name or brand hearing aid is that? I would guess it works on blue tooth. I also hear some can connect to the tv. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks

A lot of hiking/portage trails, with a healthy pinch of bush wacking!

Thanks for the replys, and I understand you're points. I hear you about the longer vs shorter events. I know it's a race, but it's seems like there is a open class that let all and any go. (No prizes/points) For me it would be a challenge. A fun and grulling one! Even if i just went as a...

Thanks, I might head up to the aera, to do some recon when the Temps improve. I think I can get my hands on a Grumman. I live in Putnam co ny, so not a crazy drive. I love to do things in my general aera (new york and new england). This seems like a cool chalange, and it gives me something to...

This sounds like a cool event. I wonder if a boat like a hemlock kestrel could do the open rec class( i know its not optimal). Iam sure it would be a very very long day. Besides c1,2 race boats what do they run for open rec. Iam looking at finishing, and seeing what racing is all about. Thanks.

Any updates? This was an interesting read.

This post missed in what's new, and most recent.

Is balsa wood a real option? I have never built one, but really enjoy these threads. It even inspired me to buy plans. I've tried to build stems, but, they bow off the form a bit. ( Don't compleatly conform to form). And have a very good feeling I would not be able to cut strips uniformly...

Me too, the wood rails are nice. And durability vs weight is not to bad, with the aide of some wheels. but after reading a recent post I wonder how tformx is in the cold as for as storage. Also i have heard of people narrowing them, for different effects. A little higher sides would be nice...

Those echos are pretty cool. i bet it would do good on the NFCT, in the sense it would take a beating, but maybe not as good on big choppy lakes. I have a hemlock kestrel and enjoy it, but need more time in the seat.

Thanks for sharing. Being surrounded by fire on a canoe trip. That has to be interesting! to listen to of course.

She should be proud to have a husband with such fine taste. Have fun, sweet boat.

Happy new year to all. I wish every one a healthy and happy year ahead.

I canoe trip much like I do light weight camping. So its a foam therma rest. In my sea line water proof pack, its a back pad. Kind of gives structure to the pack. Also I figure there is buoyancy in it to off set dead weight in that pack??? Usually canoe in camp sites, are less flat or more...

My maple has gone straight to brown, crazy leaf loss, but straight to brown. Some others going red. One thing I've noticed, is the loss of birds? My feeders stay full much longer. Also the berry's on my dog woods are not being devoured by the rodents(squirls and chipmunks) also various birds...

Thats cool, I am interested in joining for at least the day , and the camping if possable.

Thank you! I find these polls very interesting? This vs that, age, style, equipment. But we all love the outdoors, and being in nature. Gratsi!
