After golfing with Tony R in Racine, we happened upon this canoe for sale in a guy's front yard on the way back. I returned and bought it for $300, strapped it onto the top of my truck and brought it home. Included 2 paddles which could use varnishing, about 8 tie-down come-alongs, and six life vests, 2 of them still in the packages, some ropes, six styrofoam blocks for carrying it on the vehicle roof, and a bar to put on a vehicle roof, which I really don't want. This enables me to sell the Peter Pond, which is too unstable for taking grandkids canoeing.
Inaguaral Run: Chris L came down and we took it from Bridge 2 to Bridge 4 on the Kickapoo River south of Wildcat Mountain. The water was somewhat low but we didn't scrape much. We had to keep a pretty close eye on the turns so as to keep to the deeper part, but it wasn't any great problem. The canoe is very stable and the scenery was wonderful.
