I tried to get Kaz to build me an AC/DC in black

What the hades kind of stroke is that stern paddler using?!

Aaron, I'm at a loss for words. What a beautiful boat! And a great archive of the process...great pics!

JKaz, sign me up for two, short one for Deb, X version for me!

...after reading the Stinkeye thread

This is an easy one...a composite Ocoee...

Oh, and that new OC2 Kaz keeps teasing us with...

In order of my preference. Dagger/ Mad River Caption or MR ME or Mohawk Probe 14 or a Dagger Caper for solo/ tandem whitewater. Tommy, the Caper last? I *loved* that boat! Adam, how is your AC/DC outfitted. I put knee pads in mine thinking that would be enough, but after a couple of outtings we're ...

Marc, I got very different advice from both a physical therapist and orthopedic surgeon. They both said there was no reason to curtail my activities (and I made it well known that included WW canoeing). I'm now fully recovering from 2+ years of tennis elbow in my right arm, only now to find symptoms...

One of the best investments I've made lately was to get outfitted for contacts. I use the disposable kind. I only use 'em for paddling, so it's really not that expensive.

A River, from Encounters with the Archdruid

Reading the River, from Pieces of the Frame

Where are you exactly?

That used to be my boat. I would suggest to anyone interested email Kaz and ask if he took any "before and after" pictures.

Its a right brain/left brain thing. I'm right handed, paddle on the right, work in a creative job. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/right-brain-v-left-brain/story-e6frf7jo-1111114603615 Interesting. I can make it go both ways, but clockwise is definitely the "dominant" direction. I'm right handed a...

You can't beat Kokatat for customer service. I sent one in for a neck gasket replacement, and they ended up replacing the suit because the material was delaminating.

Another vote for the RAV 4. Go for the 6 cyl. My mileage is consistent with Marc's.

I use the Thule ratchet thingies as bow lines. Reach under the front bumper about half the length of your forearm and there's a metal lip that'll grab a hook.
