Ocoee

It ran today. A little over 1050cfs. We've been running it all year and it you study #3 you can see if it's running.
We only saw 15 +/- boats all day.
Since little else is there why are we few the only ones there?

The Dagger Encore shines on the New. At least up to about 6'. The Keeneys, Double Z and fayette station are a blast at 5 tp 6'.

Offside Roll

PUMPS

Alex,
I'll blame my finish on no pump. Somewhere in there it occurred to me "a pump would help". It was fun and I had planned to run a second half lap but decided against when I considered there was a keg at the campground.

Dagger Dimension

For your size it would be good. If you can find one. Probably the best big water oc2 built. It will handle your size and when tripping balance it with gear gear toward the front.
Welcome to the addiction.

6 or 7 Canoes

I don't know but would be suprised if Phil didn't win. He was both smoother and faster from the ramp to out of sight than any other boat.
