I was speaking to a long time paramedic and he advised on keeping a couple of Israeli bandages in your kit.

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.

I have a Northstar Trillium pack in Blacklite with E6 trim. Nice canoe.

Are you going to get another pack boat, model/brand?

Just got back from spending a few day up in the dak’s and the water levels are down and the mountains are just silhouettes from the haze from the Canadian wildfires.

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.

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...

We haven’t canoed yet, between traveling earlier this year and the heat/humidity it been tough. Hope to start this August up in the dak’s.

If you go on dutchwaregear.com you can buy webbing by the foot.

I am thinking of putting stainless steel marine eye straps on the bow and stern. Mount them with stainless steel screws to the E6 carbon end decks.

You’re going to love that canoe. Enjoy

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.

Nobody is going to be driving anywhere if this Apocalypse involves EMP’s.

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.

Bill, what year Outback and do you have the factory rack? Pictures of your setup?

I had a 230 and paddle low angle, but when I bought my Northstar Trillium pack canoe the cockpit is wider and I noticed the 230 wasn’t in the water very long. Switched to a 250 and the difference was night and day, much more speed.

I have a nice canoe trailer by the Dock Doctors from Ferrisberg, Vermont

Malone racks makes some nice load stops.

You people that believe that deodorant is for the weak, STINK!🤭

I like my Sea to Summit Ether Lite XL and place it on top of a ExPed FlexMat LW for protection and added insulation.
