Welcome from Western Mass

Hello All,

Been lurking around for awhile and thought I would register. Been canoeing since I was a kid. I mainly fish from a Canoe but have explored many a river and pond for the sake of enjoying the sights. I have even dabbled in some wildlife photography from a canoe.

I've paddled Kevlar Mad River Explorers, OT Campers, and old Fiberglass boats whose name's have been lost to time. I sold my OT Pack before I had kids and that is the one that I miss the most. I currently paddle an Esquif Huron 15 that I paddle with my kids and solo. I do often think of getting an Esquif Adirondack to add for solo trips but thankfully or unfortunately the closest paddle shop with them is a few hours away from my house.

Welcome Ben. A few hours each way isn't too bad but I guess you could bring home two boats to increase the efficiency of the road trip.

Hey, what can I say; I like to help... Let us know how you do
