As an avid C-1 paddler, you've got my attention.  There have been a few
articles here from time to time, but not much.  What do you want to discuss?
I'd be happy to participate.  I have 15 years whitewater experience, 12 years
C-1 experience, 10 years racing (mainly slalom) experience, and have spent
lots of time just playing around.  Where are you and what kind of boating do
you do?

Anyone else out there?

This sounds like a fine place for the canoe discussions. When I first 
started reading this section there were only discussions on keel boats,
but things seem to be a little more diversified now. After all, canoes
are boats...

    So are submarines(:->)
    Seriously, I have a canoe & would love to know if anyone has tricks
to keep them watertight. This spring I sanded & repainted my wood &
canvass canoe using a tinted plastic varnish. The job looked great but
only lasted a couple of days in the water. Now I get wet again.
OK...OK...OK so there is a little chip out of one spot but this is 
inevitable. Do I need a new canvas?  What do you look for to tell
for sure?
    Someday I'll own a 65 foot schooner.  No, I don't mean the beer!

Cheers,		Fred Williams
