I think I need therapy

Of course the canoe has to match the trailer! Polishing is really a sickness..

A week ago Louis brought the canoe 200+ miles to the mountains and it looks terrific. It never left the roof of the TV that weekend. I'm not sure if he wanted to keep it clean or he was looking for a lake with more then 1 foot of water in it.

Truck Thanks!! I hope the trailer is coming along well.. great thread to follow btw.

Richard, I was hoping to keep that a secret... I did not feel like wading in knee deep mud just to launch. We are taking it to Heron Lake.. I think there will be plenty of water there.

That's quite a hood ornament on that tow vehicle.

Therapy? Dunno - that looks pretty reasonable to me

Nicely done.

Therapy won't help. Save yourself the time and money, then use it to buy more nuvite.

Kevin

Looks good by the way...

Maybe she will get over it as you are paddling around a nice lake somewhere.

At least you picked an affordable sickness that keeps you out of trouble.

The canoe is stunning!

Hey Kip,

We can make a deal... we need to replace one of the ribs in the canoe and they are all flush buck riveted in there, perhaps at the next resto rally, we can bring the sewing machine and show Susanne how to make window covers, or help her make some in exchange for some metal fabrication on the canoe.

You never know. The river was running last year for a day or two...

Sounds like a deal to me
