    world of maps came through by telephone. Index didn’t work on my Apple. I’ll definitely check out some other sites.

    Yes, but here is the index for area 53. I can’t read a thing. Cross referencing to a legible map. Here’s what clicking a desired sheet (any sheet) returns.

    Im looking for the Armstrong 1:50,000 NTS map. Seems to be unavailable from World of Maps, Maptown, etc. Sad if paper topo map products are going away.

    Camping with no tent, hammock

    Still trying to trim my load. Considering sans tent. Saves about 7lbs with footprint, vestibule, etc. I would still take my lightweight tarp. Anyone else do this for summer trips?

    I’m having a hard time finding a good online source for NTS maps. I know I once had a good source, but can’t find the site. Anyone have a good current source?

    Ontario Crown Land non-resident camping permits

    Is the tent receipt still acceptable in lieu of a permit? Seems like a huge leap in faith to head out on a trip without a permit in advance.

    Added some green flakes. Seems like it will hold.

    Patching Gelcoat

    I’m wondering if thickened Gflex is good for patching gouges in Gelcoat boats. The soapy, crumbly nature of the coating is what concerns me.

    Load weight and trim and it's effect on stability.

    The narrow bow of a tripper like a MNII can create instability without a substantial cargo load. The front paddler is often cramped and the angled hull design lends to tipsiness. It’s consistent with the purpose of the craft. That’s where a big dog actually comes n handy. You just need a...

    Invasive species carried on canoes?

    Not a problem in Ohio because the water is so filthy most canoeists wash their canoes right after paddling.

    Resin, Hardener Age

    The instructions also say remove all epoxy repairs. I’ve always made small repairs with epoxy and never have removed it to recoat. Does this coating not stick to hardened epoxy?

    Resin, Hardener Age

    I did the math route. 473ml to a pint. Found old Instructions say 2% MEKP to resin (50:1). That’s 9.5ml from a 22ml tube of hardener, roughly 1/2 tube. Lucky I hoard old boxes. It’s a good box.

    Resin, Hardener Age

    Not sure but it’s from a north star recoat kit specifying MEKP harderner.

    Resin, Hardener Age

    It’s been years since I figured out the amount of hardener to use on this small can of resin. Anyone know?

    Gelcoat Crack Across Stem

    Not sure where this crack came from, but it looks like it could be from hauling in wind, which I’ve done plenty recently. Any reason to worry about this? Any repair advice? I was thinking of sanding and recoating the bottom, but I’m not familiar with Gelcoat.
