Default Canoe advice, please

typed:
Hi boys and g... man, I miss Cyli.


Yeah - me, too.

On the way home from my bike ride today, a neighbor has his barely-
used We No Nah Adirondak canoe sitting in the front yard with a for
sale sign on it. Thing looks like it's barely been wet. I've never
owned a canoe, but am a pretty decent paddler. Is this a good rig?
It sure looks sweet. I've looked at the corp web site and new these
things are pretty spendy (to my eyes) and I have no idea how much the
owner is asking for it. Just looking for input from our resident
canoe guys, Ken, Myron (if you are out there) and any others. I
suppose I could ask over on a paddling newsgroup, but I don't know
those guys :-) and I know a few of you here will likely have
opinions. Even if they are unfounded. :-)

I would use it for still water, taking the kids out, fish from it,
unlikely to do any overnights but you never know.


I think that's the model of Wenonah Stan Gula has, and he loves it. I wish I
had saved my nickels and purchased one instead of the heavy-as-heck thing I
bought.
