Free Canoe
A friend of mine built a 16' cedar strip canoe about 15 years ago, with fiberglass covering inside and out. He doesn't use it anymore and has offered it to me. It's pretty heavy, but what concerns me most is that it looks like the fiberglass is coming loose inside, or at least bubbling up.
Is this going to be a problem? Or should I take it and hope I can use it with my kids more than he has?

Best way to use an action camera when paddling?
Was wondering if anyone uses their gopro/dji when they paddle and if so, how are you attaching it?
Is there a good system to attach it to the canoe somehow?

Well, haven’t done that in a while.
It’s got to be 25 years since I had to do a swift water canoe recovery. Wear your life jacket!

First fish on the Grumman!
Invasive clown knife fish from South Florida. Definitely going to need to rethink the outriggers that the previous owner fabricated. Regardless of in or out, they splash far too much water into the canoe while underway via motor. But overall, I’m happy with the new addition! 1959 17’ Square stern Grumman.

flipped my canoe
I've been canoeing for a while and finally flipped last weekend. watched videos on self rescue and they make it look easy, paddle float on one side, climb over the gunwale, slide back in. tried it for real and couldn't even get close. The canoe kept tipping over as soon as i put any weight on the side. My legs were flailing everywhere, ended up swimming the boat to shore. anyone have a technique that actually works for a normal person.

Gunwales swap...
My gunwale swap seems to have become and epic failure. We acquired a 17' Scott Kevlar and the wood gunwales were rotted, so I replaced them with plastic one. Today we went to take it out for the first time and when we got in, the walls of the canoe looked like they were gonna buckle. This was a sad moment.
Does anyone have any advice on where I went wrong? Should I have used aluminum instead??

New Dry Bag Concept
Hello everyone,
A few days ago, I posted about a zipper dry bag product and asked for your feedback. I got lots of feedback, and thank you again for taking the time to help me with this idea. Esentially the biggest takeaway is 90% of you don't trust the zipper. Many of you appreciate the simplicity of a roll-top, but you'd still like something different.
Attached are photos of a new concept, NO AI used. The bag converts into a duffel or backpack. It has a roll-up opening on the side to provide wider access to your gear. It still comes with a lighter interior and has no zippers. There are attachment points as well as pockets to fasten gear to. All attachments or pockets are elastic to reduce the probability of snagging. Also attached is a video from manufacturing showing the quality of the bag's material (420D Nylon, TPU Coated).
Thanks for your input, looking forward to the responses.

Help identificating this canoe
I've bought this old canoe from a deceased owner. It's from the 60-70's and he painted it every year or so. So no tags.
We are located in Quebec, Canada and it's fiberglass. It's flat-bottom and flat-back for a motor.
Any idea for any make/model?

Waterfowl Hunting in NZ
Had a good day on the river last weekend!
A bit dirty for fishing but we did catch a few trout at a confluence with clean water.

A very windy paddle up the Parrett.
We set off up stream (very gentle flow) and into a light headwind, and were looking forward to a nice gentle paddle back with a tail wind and the flow. Yeah, that didn't happen. A change of wind direction, in increase in speed, and the odd downpour made for a very interesting paddle back! Still, lovely day out with my partner and her parents. We're very lucky to have this river right on our doorstep.

Let's talk double bladed paddles
I just recently picked up my first solo canoe. I would like to buy a double bladed paddle for it. My question is how important is it to get a "canoe" paddle vs kayak paddle. It seems most kayak paddle speak of "low angle" paddling. Obviously a canoe is far higher in the water.
Is the low angle just marketing speak? Will it make a big difference compared to a proper double bladed canoe paddle (H2O I believe makes one for example)?
The paddle I'm looking at is the Pelican catch 260 (260cm) angler kayak paddle. It's incredibly light compared to most at a decent price.

is this salvageable?
just bought this mohawk intrepid 16 on marketplace for 200 and started chipping off the reinforced areas to see what was underneath, there’s a pretty big gouge in the front and haven’t tried seeing if there’s damage in the back yet. do y’all think its worth trying to fix or should i cut my losses?

that moment when the wind picks up and you realize you're in trouble
Hi, you ever look at the water before you launch and think "yeah this is fine." then you get to the middle of the lake and suddenly the wind is howling and waves are coming over your bow. You're paddling as hard as you can and barely moving forward maybe even going backwards. This literally happened to me last weekend, its like the lake was personally mad at me. Ended up landing on the opposite side from my car and had to walk back along the road carrying all my gear. Checked the forecast before I left too, said light winds, never trusting that again.
