I just got back from a 5-day excursion in my 'bou S. I had to remove 3 ibuprofen from my kit to initially secure the rear hatch. I am not among the world's best packers, I like to have extra outfits (in case of wetting, unexpected parties, etc.), and I insists on having sturdy land shoes aboard. But/and, it handles splendidly loaded to the gunwales. Thinking I might need a higher capacity boat, I tried out many at the Symposium at Port T. last weekend. I couldn't find anything I liked as well. So if you are planning long trips w/o air drops, don't get hooked on the Caribou. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Sep 20 1999 - 10:41:47 PDT
