Gotta love Dave’s boats. Great looking…paddle well…outstanding construction…what more could one ask? Love that sage color. Congrats and enjoy.

Not sure there’s anything better than fresh walleye…I’m salivating😉

My interpretation of the comment to “work on the J stroke” is that it meant the small diversion from stem symmetry wouldn’t make any difference in hull performance….don’t want to speak for Gamma1214 but I took it that way, hence my agreement with the comment. No snarkyness intended.

Agree with Gamma1214…..BUT I have never built a canoe so I ask this out of pure curiosity…could some sort of filler be applied then reshaped? Seems like such a small amount…

Welcome, love the UP! May even get up there this summer if all goes well.

Only did it once but Juniper Springs near Ocala is a run I will always remember. Jungly as GM said. Used to be a shuttle/rental service there but don’t know about now???

Saw this on another site...."The Bob"s collection is for sale...not really tripping boats but some interesting/uncommon ones bob-the-bob-gitchells-boat-collection-for-sale-2509153

Thanks Glenn, you’re doing an amazing job…and we all appreciate it.

Think you will really enjoy the Peregrine…very comfortable boat. Light and strong. Curtis/Hemlock canoes have been a blessing to the sport. Congrats.

It’s helpful to place a small ball on the floor.

I weigh twice what my wife weighs and I move the stern seat forward by one seat depth (rear cross rail of new seat goes in the holes of the original seat front rail). Con: of course this means buying a new seat. Pro: I can usually fit in a wider seat for more comfort.

Great collection of photos! Stayed in one in WVa when my wife and I hiked in with another couple. That wife had never camped out. Woke up to 8” of snow and hiked back out. We each were driving Toyota Land Cruisers and his got stuck getting out of the parking lot (not easy to do as those things...

Ask about the type of dog he has a friend of mine replies “she’s an Attention Hound“ and she craves it. 😆

Glenn, A good computer repair shop can remove the hard drive and extract your info (unless it’s damaged).

Totaled up the canoe count to around 25-30 that have passed through my hands over the years (not to mention TONS of nice paddles, outfitting, etc) at a total cost of ???. Have realized that had I invested all that money over all those years I would have a lot more money than I do….…..not a...

Welcome! Your English is just fine. Enjoy your new passion…. I got serious about canoeing when I realized that it would be easier to put my gear in a canoe and go downhill rather than carry it on my back and go uphill. Lazy to the core I guess…. Look forward to some reports and pics from Germany!

Owned one many moons ago….It’s a banana…maneuvers great but you better have a good efficient traveling/correction stroke for the flats if they are long. Never paddled class 4/5 but assume you will have float bags as it could take on some water there unless you take the perfect line. Others will...

Sounds like gunnel pumping? Learned as a kid in an old aluminum hull. Hurt like heck if you fell IN the boat. Pretty certain those stunts are past me now😉

In an age where the written word is in a sad decline I find it comforting that you can feel as though you know someone through their writings based on the simplicity of similar affinities. Never met Barry but nontheless I feel the loss. Cheers Barry we’ll miss you.
