New member...old paddler. Started paddling kayaks on rivers in the Highlands of Scotland in the '60s when I was a kid but after moving back to the States I knew I had to get into a canoe and have been paddling them ever since. Now am accused of being a collector since I have 3 Sawyers, 2 Mad Rivers, 1 Bell and my latest and oldest is a 1941 Old Town Guide that had been hanging in a barn for over 40 years 8 miles from my house. Always looking to learn from others.
