From experience, if they even check, they will go off the actual food volume. Otherwise, the blue barrel crowd would be getting turned away left and right. Now, show up with a shrink-wrapped pallet of sale-ready containers.... The rule is intended to prevent Canadian...

I have nothing of merit to add here, but man, i have really enjoyed the discussion. Great topic, great testing, great information! Makes me want to buy a bent. Hmm, carbon or wood... single or double bend.... custom or rack.....

Not to thread jack, but I really want to know more about this boat. Is there a thread somewhere? Edit: found it. https://www.canoetripping.net/threads/composite-bloodvein-build.38693/

Bought a Wenonah Solo Yoke from him. Great communication, item better than described, packaging was incredible. Deal with confidence!

Hot glue. Not kidding. Several strength, temp, and application types available. Its so much more than Hobby Lobby adhesive. https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/bonding-and-assembly-us/products/hot-melt-adhesives/

PM'd you back, friend.

Good afternoon! I have a new-to-me Encounter for which I will need to purchase or fabricate a carrying system. I have looked at the Wenonah offering, and may end up biting the bullet and purchasing one. But before I do, I wanted to ask the experts whether they have had success with other...

Just finished Distant Fires. Great little book, very easy reading. Currently ingesting  Endure by Cameron Hanes.

TLDR: Don't leave synthetics exposed to UV. @Caledonia If you can feel a textural difference, the fabric is shot. Long answer: https://www.nationalwebbing.com/nylon-webbing-articles/nylon-webbing/polyester-nylon-webbing-materials-242.html

Light wipedown with WD-40. I go over it with a torch and give it a burn-in before the first trip. My stove is stainless though, not sure how it would work with mild steel. Yes, stainless will still rust, especially when heated.

I dont know how I just saw this, but they do. They are $$$ though. I bought one last year. You will need to tell them if you want the tall or regular.

I thought the one I borrowed for an hour to very comfortable.

I assume you mean something like this shaft? Werner makes quite a few, but they top out at 240cm.

Very nice work, sir!

Hahah, that's another project in progress. Transmission went out this spring, so we are having some more father/son bonding time with that. It's been a tripping machine!

In a surprise to probably no one, especially my wife, I went ahead with the purchase. I want to thank everyone who contributed to the thread, not just for my education, but for the many people who will find our discussion through internet searches concerning this hull. The canoe is in great...

Thanks for that new info! I didn't know they made two sizes. Also, the recommended threads feature popped out this beauty, which may be of some use for anyone looking at bucket seat options. I appreciate the detailed posts in here as well. https://www.canoetripping.net/threads/bucket-seats.76791/

For sure. I have never used a tractor-style seat before, so it would be a very new experience. We take camping trips to large flowages. The Turtle-Flambeau in Wisconsin is a good example. No ports, lots of gear. I AM concerned about the size of the boat, but that Basswood solo felt horribly...

Older thread, but I am about to need to put skid plates on a blue Encounter if the sale goes through. Where did you purchase your pigment?
