Also canoes and sots. They require a safety video watch and will question as to competence and intentions of the renter to attempt a judgment of suitability. They have an impeccable safety record to this day. They are also a good source of locations for a wide range of skill levels and it seems that most of the rental paddlers are looking for such recommendations. -- : : Gabriel L Romeu : http://studiofurniture.com furniture from the workshop : http://members.xoom.com/gabrielR life as a tourist, daily journal : http://users.aol.com/romeugp paintings, photographs, etchings, objects *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced/forwarded outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: PaddleWise_at_PaddleWise.net Subscriptions: PaddleWise-request_at_PaddleWise.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Wed Aug 02 2000 - 19:19:10 PDT
