Pirogue, you have entered the greatest of all paddles... a paddle in the wilderness with a friend!
We never grow up do we? The dark can at times haunt the mightiest of us. Relying on your own takes more than a credit card and a cell phone.

Drew, you have already paddled this river o make sure no tree canopy limits your boats heigth right?

I would think that a small inspection door on each pontoon where you can empty water and...
Banoe, ya make a point that to some, would be to general or quiant. But it is the truth!
Looking back I can see where children that have fished and hunted as youth, grew with that special knowledge that comes with being out in the outdoors. Those who enjoy it and want to go back , will keep in...

Many of the rivers I am looking at have class I & II rapids.
Having a skirt on the canoe would keep most water out... would have to bail in the cockpit.

Jack, I have yet to make camp along side you. Your post above got right to me. Seems you have been with us in spirit, cause you have gathered the aroma of a Geezer's day/night out camping.
