The worst, Old Town H2Pro. Heavy, round hull. Honorable mention, Mohawk Rodeo 11. "It makes up for a lack of primary stability with a lack of secondary stability." Also a kevlar Rainbow Canoe slalom OC-2 I had. Unmanageable.

As a whitewater instructor, I never really believed this. And then I saw it happen, fortunately, nobody was hurt and I had a good teachable moment.

Plus 1 for Kokatat Goretex. I went with a custom suit. I love the color and fit. 15 years old and going strong. In my case absolutely worth the $$$.

Some years back Kate and I were preparing to launch for an overnight on Stillwater Reservoir in NY. The boat was on the beach, and the gear was being carried from the car when a Republic RC-3 Seabee made a low pass, and landed. The pilot brought the plane right up to the boat ramp and lowered...

Sometime in the '90s I was returning to NY from The WeNoNah and Trek factories with a load of new bikes and boats. I kept seeing signs for the Wisconsin Dells. I got off the interstate, put in somewhere, paddled upstream for a couple of hours. Meh.

I teach WW boating in the spring and fall, and would highly recommend a Kokatat Goretex suit. I ordered min custom color and fit 12 years ago. Evrey 3-4 years I replace the gaskets. A drysuit doubles your paddling season.

I do not own this, but have demoed it. state of the art https://www.zre.com/whitewater-canoe-paddles/

I don't like Franklin's Titebond 2. Elmers type 3 is nice to work with.

At lunch, breaks I tighten PFD buckles. Then as they struggle to put them on, I say " How much did you eat?" Also rocks in barrels, and under float bags.
