A pack canoe would be a better choice. You sit low in the boat, like a kayak, you can carry gear, pets, etc. with greater accessibility, very efficient with either a double or single blade paddle and much lighter than a solo canoe or kayak.

Keep them coming.;)

I made my spreader bars out of plastic conduit that I purchased at the local hardware store. Cut them to length and thread your strapping, rope, etc. through them and mount to the rafters, I used eye bolts.

I can’t believe with over 2,000 subscribers that it is taking this long for people to step up. This forum has no advertising popping up and it’s purely about canoeing.

Glenn, the check is in the mail. Thanks for providing such a great site.

Take a look at a Northstar canoe in IXP layup or a Souris River canoe in their whitewater layup.

I like both the Bacho Laplander and the Silky saws.

I also have a Northstar Trillium pack version and it is a great canoe.

Go to etrailer.com and input you truck information and they will have several front receivers, the also offer roof rack and goal post for you truck. That is the best way to carry a canoe while towing your 5th wheel trailer.

I don’t agree. With the increases in price also come higher margins that should more than offset the exposure.

Placid Boatworks, Raquette River Outfitters and Hornbeck canoes don’t charge for demos, support them.

Thanks, Glenn.

Charging to test paddle a boat is BS. Imagine if you were charged to demo a vehicle or anything for that matter.

It’s National Donut Day!

It appears that you have you bases covered, enjoy your trip.

Up here at Fish Creek Ponds and the black flys are here in large swarms 🙄

I have a Trillium pack boat that is a very nice canoe and making statements like this is unfair to Ted, Bear and the crew at Northstar.

Welcome Jan, we really like visiting the UP. This is a great place to discuss and learn about canoeing. I personally have a Northstar Trillium pack canoe in Blacklite with E6 trim.

The straps don’t wrap through the windows, you open the doors run the straps over the door jams, connect the straps, tighten them and close the doors. Door gaskets should prevent leaks.

Look at Red Leaf Designs for great canoe covers.
