Welcome. Lots of nice water up there! Nice canoe to explore it with. Nothing paddles like a wooden canoe.

It looks like you have some gunwale repair work to do, and maybe some others. There are many threads here on such repairs and folks are willing to give advice.

Thanks! I’ve updated my profile hope that helps.
This is hugely uncharted territory for me so i hope to glean much collective wisdom.

Welcome. Yes, definitely time to enjoy some time on the water. You live in a great area for it & it looks like you've got a great start for the canoe collection. (yeah... spoiler alert: that'll probably happen). Looking forward to following along.
Thanks i’m sensing that already!
my last canoe outing was a week on Lake George in Oct 92 i believe.
Was nothing like id ever experienced. The sight and sounds were hypnotic. Only interrupted by an occasional motorboat zooming past, and they saw none of what we experienced.
Welcome to the campfire Brews. Pull up a stump and share your thoughts as you learn and explore more.

Welcome, good luck with the canoe, keep us posted with the restoration.
Welcome, Mr Brew,
When you said Lake George, was that in MI?
Do you plan to camp along with paddling?
I’ve not been to the UP, but I hear it’s great for paddling/camping. I spend my time in the ADK’s in upstate NY.
Fix those gunnels and get out there…

I thought I responded to this already, but I don’t see it. I was referring to Lake George New York. It’s been a wonderful week canoeing around that lake.
You live in a giant playground......use it!
Paddling opportunities are really great there. I'm close by and spend lots of time there.
