    Due to bad health, selling We No Nah Rendezvous (retired), along with paddles and many tripping items.

    Tryin’, Thanks much for the pricing info, and supporting a spring sale idea. That’s a help. Since I’ve been meaning to visit Bloomington, my home town, and I have friends near Indy…hmmm, what if I made a road trip? Just a thought (wish) ;-)

    Due to bad health, selling We No Nah Rendezvous (retired), along with paddles and many tripping items.

    I’m not sure if I’m doing this right, but giving it a shot. For more than two years, I’ve been dreaming of getting a canoe and tripping in the west, BWCA, and my old haunts in the ADK. Having purchased a new Rendezvous in 2022, only being on flat water and a short river, my health dictates that...

    Solo Canoe Recommendations Needed for Rocky and Low Water Rivers

    Hey From Denver, Co. I came here to ask others their thoughts on how to price a Wenonah Rendezvous that’s been in the water (three reservoirs and one short river). It’s 42#, 15’8”, Kevlar, great tripping canoe, 2”/2” rocker. Saw your request and thought I’d share my situation, although almost o...

    Show us pictures of your canoe vehicle with boat(s)

    My 2023 Suby Forester with 15’8" Wenonah Rendezvous sitting on 2x4s crossbars attached to the rails. First time out this summer at Barr Lake (reservoir) north of Denver, CO. (Yeah, I know, I’m going the wrong way…lot was full) )[A

    New cars: are they as impossible as they seem for cartopping?

    Had an ’07 Outback and put wood crossbars (xbars) on railings. They are a very heavy, dense pine I got from a construction site. They’re spacers between the batches lumber used to build houses. Tied down xbars on railings, and canoe on xbars. Had bow and stern tie downs. In CO, I’m told the...

    How do you know the water temperature?

    Here’s my hand-held Kestrel 2500 with sturdy plastic slip case and lanyard. Maybe shoulda gotten a brighter color, but beyond that, at a few $$, this has quite a few functions. Does air temp° F/C; stick it in the water for surface temps…or tie a rock and sink to a certain depth for a few...

    Solo - fears and boredom

    After more than a year since you shared this question, I wondered what happened? Did you complete a solo? If so, what was the experience like? Thanks.

    New to Group

    After considerable checking around for the best canoe (for me), I was considering a Northstar Phoenix IXP. Went to Canoe Colorado's warehouse to heft it, make sure I could manage it alone (I could). Then came the Rendezvous idea came up. It, too, passed the heft test. Main concern with the PHX...

    New to Group

    No, didn't know about those two boats. Kinda thought I knew where Bumpo's original cabin posts were, but not the boat. Vaguely remember the Uncas being mentioned, but don't have any memories of seeing it. In '63-'64, the boat I sanded on a bit was a donated old diesel navy vessel (I think)...a...

    New to Group

    This is the first online group I've signed in with in my whole life. Be gentle. Scoping out the recent introductions, and my status of getting back into canoeing after many years, figured I'd give it a go. Ya'll seem a decent group. Currently in Denver, CO, and recently joined the Rocky Mt Canoe...
