Hello all,

I am having a late midlife crisis and instead of a Boxter or a new wife i
thought I might try canoeing, but don't want to get a second mortgage. I
would really welcome some suggestions for a decent all purpose, but mostly
river travelling, canoe. Also, any help w/ accessories to get started right
would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance to all who offer advice.

Hi Terry,

I think I just went through the same crisis myself.
Try eBay, I just got a 1 year old Winonah Adirondack that looked as though it had never been out of the garage for
$500.00.
I also got 2 kevlar paddles (can't remember the brand) that retail for $249.00 each but I paid $70.00 for both.

HTH,

Ken B.
