with one long day of driving, i can reach Portland, ME and get aboard the
overnight ferry to Nova-Scotia... hey, hey, hey.

help! what's cool for kayakers?
i assume car top boat are no problem on the ferry. a friend asks, does it
make any sense to leave the cars in Portland and just take kayaks? 

any tips on paddling on the otherside?

in advance, thanks for info.
for a ferry pre-view, see

scott cuningham has written a guidebook to paddling nova scotia. the options
are quite varied, and the book is helpful. if you have the time, try to make
it up to cape breton, a lovely place to visit and paddle.

I have a book "Sea kayaking in Nova Scotia" by Scot Cunningham that I
purchased for planning my trip to NS.  I never went because I got
sidetracked by exciting (and true) stories about the Saquenay Fjord.  I
think the book will help you make some decisions where to paddle.  Have
fun.
