Re: INFORMAL POLL

Deuce,
Wife may have to give the ACT test that morning, but we might come down for the afternoon and see what all is going on.

Re: INFORMAL POLL

Dave, Thanks for the insight, however I have spent probably 20 times more days and nights in the Boundary Waters than I have on the Buffalo. It's my place I go to when I really want to get away.

Re: Flatwater Solo Boats?

Another boat that is a good flat water solo is the Wenonah Wilderness, 15'4 with only 1.25 inches of rocker. It tracks well and can be used on the local rivers and streams as well. I have the Royalex version and plan to use it in the Boundary Waters. It carries a nice load as well. Just my .02 Bruce
