Canoe
As part of my drive to get out and experience life a little more, I am thinking about getting a canoe. There are a few that I have looked at and researched on the internet. I wanted to get some opinions, since I know little to nothing about canoes. This is a picture of one of the canoes I am interested in. It is made by Old Town, which is one of the more respected canoe companies. This model is the Guide. It is one of the most popular models. I am also looking at another model called the Saranac. It is a little narrower (36" VS 38" for the Guide). The Guide will be a little more stable, but my understanding is that narrower caneos are a little faster. I'm not sure about the length yet. I've been looking at somewhere between 14' and 16'. Do any of you guys canoe or kayak? What are your opinions? Any help or advice would be appreciated.

ReplyDeleteThat's a link to one I found near Chattanooga. Thoughts? Anyone? Anyone?
Sorry, I'm only familiar with douche canoes.
ReplyDeleteI don't know shit about canoes, but I do know how to paddle. If you end up getting one, let me know. My dad has one and I've yet to borrow it.
ReplyDeleteSave your money and just float down the river on a fat woman. Helpful hint: If you ride her face down, she talks less. Just mind the blow hole.
