    Finally got my NW Solo in the water

    Well, after building a rack, buying a paddle, buying a PFD, setting up my car, and doing a little maintenance on my new-to-me 2015 NW Solo canoe, I finally got it on the water. :p The main goal on this trip was to get my Border Collie, Lucy, accustomed to the canoe.

    Hello from S. Florida

    Hi everyone, I have been low key looking for a used canoe for several years. Specifically, I was looking for a Northstar Northwind Solo. Canoeing is not very popular in Florida.
