Re: Yakima Racks and Ozark Outdoor Supply

Thanks.
I have the whisper attachment as well. Didn't check on the gas but did notice the sound was diminished.
Maybe I should drive a Subaru. Need to move this Honda Accord I'm driving. Got any suggestions?

Re: Yakima Racks and Ozark Outdoor Supply

You got it!
Put one through the doors and around the canoe for an additional safeguard.

Re: Yakima Racks and Ozark Outdoor Supply

I always use ratchet straps to tie my canoe to the rack on my car. Two over the top and ONE that I run through the car doors. No way it's coming off if you attach the one through the doors. I tie the front using 2 ropes as well, using a half hitch slip knot. A person could even run another ratchet s...

Re: Yakima Racks and Ozark Outdoor Supply

Good for you and a high five for Ozark Outdoor Supply.
I bought a used Yakima rack and one of the Q Towers broke. No harm done but Yakima doesn't extend their warranty except to the initial purchaser.
I suppose this is status quo for manufacturer's though.
Next time I will do my shopping at OOS.

Re: Buffalo Float Hasty to Carver

Your right but this is the National River. Makes no sense to invite people to do the wrong thing and dispose of their trash in the wrong way just because there are no trash containers. And, SOME are already doing it! Seriously, the First River in the Nation to be designated a National River and the ...

Re: Buffalo Canoe - What year was it made?

Hi I know the owner of Buffalo Canoes. Your boat is called a Second (Blem). It is not a First. The difference is in the thickness of the plastic. From time to time my friend would order plastic and some of the sheets would be thinner than others. Your boat is abs plastic made by Royalex , which is a...

Buffalo Float Hasty to Carver

I made this float on 2 occasions recently. It is a short float and one that I do when visiting a friend of mine in Jasper. Anyway... The no trash containers at both Hasty and Carver is ridiculous! Really Park Service?? Where do the visitor's put their trash? I can assist you with this... In the wood...

Re: Buffalo River floats

The upper Buffalo has several float/camp options.
Kyles Landing is the largest campground.
If you want a quiet, small site I would recommend the Carver site.
Start from Pruitt (5 miles) or Hasty (2 miles).
