Stowaway 6's these days, you'd better treat your 5 right!
If my Stowaway 5 ever breaks, hopefully it won't be 'till next year when we've moved out west and I'll have my 696 RPL 2 pc with me full-time. Closest it ever came to breaking was by my own hand - had finished fishing Flat Creek in the morning before our flight out of Jackson and I couldn't separate the top 2 sections. Did the behind-the-knees thing, had my buddy turn one section while I did the other; nothing. Finally got it apart but lost a snake guide in the process; simple enough to repair.
