When I want to enjoy a slow boat, I take the canoe out for a spin on the
river. Not only is it quieter than a GB RV, there's no exhaust smell,
you're down at the water's level, and you get a bit of decent exercise,
too.
Nothing wrong with that .... I often do the same with my Kayak. Only
difference is, I can carry the Kayak with me where ever I go, I can
return
to the GB and get dry when it starts to rain, cook up something to eat
and
catch a nice, afternoon nap in the aft cabin.


Try that in your canoe.

Ahh, I keep my canoe out at the Shenandoah, at a friend's little farm.
When I return from canoeing, I can warm up by the fire, cook anything I
please, and take a nap in the hammock on the screened porch, or crawl into
one of the beds.
Why does this make me think of Goldilocks and the three old bears?


Starring Harry as Goldilocks?


Sure would explain a lot. :)


I use my long blonde hair to tie myself to the cleats of those low-sided
Ranger bay boats, so that when we are broadsided by a 2' wave, I don't
get washed overboard.- Hide quoted text -

I think you need to do a little research. Look up hull design, and
check into primary and secondary stability and come back and talk
about the Parker VS Ranger hulls
