thanks joe,
that is a wealth of info. i can’t part with that canoe for sentimental reasons but would entertain buying another. i am 6 ft 7 inches 310 pounds, any recommendations??? also, i do use pick up truck w/o samper shell and pull a camper with it. where can i find this system that you speak so highly of?
i enjoy your ww feature weekly - thanks jlm
p.s. trying canoe out to decide on model is not an option in east central missippi…will be a mail order/catalogue deal in all liklehood.
