Oh, man!  Ralph, where would I put the 80 lbs of spuds and the hibachi my
paddling buddies just HAD to have along on their latest week-long-trip?

Seriously, what is the true cargo capacity (volume -- weight is probably
not limiting) of an "expedition" SOT?

The people I paddle with like to EAT!  I don't know where I'd put the spare
ribs!

I'm stickin' with my Wind Dancer -- the cargo barge!
