My shoulders have been troublesome lately so I want to get to as light a boat as possible. The carry up from the Chatooga ain't no picnic either.

Thanks,

Millbrook test paddle

I want to test paddle a Millbrook ME and one of the less edgy solo boats. Anybody got one in North Georgia or close-by N.C./S.C./Tenn I can test paddle?
Thanks, Zappaddles

Best advise yet CDawg. Sort of what I'd figured I'd need to do.

No real comparrison of the Detonator to XL13 or the ME. If you can keep the boat under you and the chines off of the rocks you'll like it.

Paddled both and owned a Nitro (bigger version of the Detonator).

Looking forward to the ME pics.

Not so much the vapors. If the acetone, or any similar solvent, is allowed to dwell on any plastic it has the unpleasant habit of (to some degree) disolving it, or at least rearranging it's chemical make-up, out some of the components that make it desirable for boat building; think acetone disolved ...

Is it possible that the hull took a heavy hit in cold weather/water after having acetone leach some of the plasticisers out of it? Seems plausible. Don't know how likely.
