Approach with caution!
Easily tamed with bacon baps, peanut cookies and hot mugs of oxo.
The concentrated look on his face suggests someone who knows what he is doing...
...or he's just done one in his drysuit!

was that taken just before I 'broke' my dry suit whilst hiding Retro's boat? Can I pinch it?

Yes it was.
And yes you can. I'll e-mail you the full res!

Cheers my new best paddling buddy

Better Known for his ice breaking exploits me thinks Nige, hope to hook up with him at Bala.
Regards Bill

Yeah Bill but, there are those that do and there are those that follow!

While I cant say this is canoeings most wanted, it is interesting to note the look on the face of my inexperienced bow paddler who was somewhat less than enthusiastic when I talked him into doing this run of the North Saskatchewan river with me in the Province of Alberta. It was a great five day trip and thankfully during the rapids at least, no one dumped!



Reason for edit:Image size

Now that is a good picture, resembles a kayak though

Spray decks or no spray decks its an excellent picture. Myself and LAS247 paddle tandem in my 16 ft we never use decks slows us down too much

From what i was told the swamped Bob Special you were towing was probably doing the job of slowing you down as good as anything

We were just using our power to try and bail Bala, if the bob failed we were going to use your broke back hat
