As you can see in the picture, I moved the new bench one seat width toward the center. This meant I only had to drill two new holes in the gunwale. The seat is now perfectly positioned for me, so that my knees don't touch the yoke when I'm sitting down.

After buying my canoe I was very happy at first. But after my first trip, I wasn't quite so happy anymore. I painfully realized that I couldn't paddle the two-person canoe very well on my own with luggage and food for a multi-day trip. The trim didn't work at all, and worst of all for me, I was...

@Glenn MacGrady please have a closer look. Here you can see lots of pictures of the lamp and you can see how it is constructed. It looks like it works on the same principle as UCCO lanterns. https://www.lodge-heavyduty.com/items/49263916 To clean your lantern, I would heat it slowly to melt...

Oh, yes - there's a lot going on on the Lahn. :sick: Especially in summer. There are lots of “rental companies” out with their groups... We did our tour in August – right in the middle of the season. But since we started the tour very high up and then during the week... we didn't see too many...

On my last trip, I took my EXPED ORION II EXTREME ... It is quite large and has very good headroom. It is quite luxurious with its two opposite entrances and two vestibules. This gives me enough space to sleep, as well as room in the tent to spend time without feeling like I'm locked up in a...

Yes, tents from Tentipi are very popular here... with a floor space of 4-5 meters, they are also quite suitable for two to three people. Another, cheaper alternative are tents from Helsport—these are made of synthetic fiber and are correspondingly lighter. . . . Yes, two wooden...

some thing like - Little puff - Yes, ist is commen to have a Name on the boat ... there are socalled federal waterways here in Germany, and boats must have a name.

Hey Lennart, come by - next year on the last weekend in October. ;)

Just let us know that you've won... and we'll send out the invitation right away! Promise. ;)

Erica, I think that's just the way things are... When you've spent the whole day kneeling in a canoe, you're happy to be able to walk upright into your living and sleeping quarters in the evening, knowing that there's a folding bed, table, and chair where you can make yourself comfortable...

The local canoe club once again invited members to its annual end-of-season paddling event. Around 50 canoeists with approximately 30 canoes attended this weekend event. :love: Friends even came from neighboring countries (the Netherlands, Switzerland and Belgium). In addition to numerous...

This box was a gift for me from a paddle friend last weekend. 🥰 He handed me the box and said: Look, I brought you something... it's quite old, and I don't think they make it anymore. He had bought this box in America more than 30 years ago...
