NRS doesn't make Quick-N-Easy, they just sell them ;)

Try those folks - they should be able to set you up.

I figured the T-shirt was part of it, since the post was gone. All in good fun, but I can see how peeps would get offended on the T-shirt (and comments) post. And sure me giving Gnarlz grief is part too, but oh well.

Not 100% sure if they would work or not on the Thule/Yakima gutters, but you could go with the Qucik N Easy mounts and make 2x4 crossbars. http://www.nrsweb.com/shop/product.asp?pfid=3200&pdeptid=1379 If you go that route and decide you want to go to a more conventional bar they have an adapter and ...

My humbling moment came with my first WW boat - a Cascade, about 3 weeks after I got it. I had one class II run in the canoe (before the skirt shipped) with no problem, but didn't love the foam outfitting in it. I pulled all the foam out and re-did it (saddle higher, further forward, etc.) and the g...

When I had a Dakota quad-cab, I used one of these and a receiver hitch mount for the rear. It worked pretty well with the Ocoee and cascade, and I've driven 700 miles one way with a 17' canoe on those. Not a permanent mount solution, but works when you need a bit more space. http://store.springcreek...

I don't think the prelude is a bad boat - far from it. But if the poster wants to move from class II/III in a MR ME (look the specs on that puppy up) to technical IV/V creeks quickly, the prelude might not be the next step ;)

Perhaps a reverse heyhole? Wider for the knees up front, narrower and longer in the bacK (kinda like the shape your legs are actually in while kneeling in an OC-1 or C1 ;)

Just trying to figure out how big a transition in stability you are facing. Both are great, but they are different boats. S'fly (pre L'edge) is arguably the best creeking OC and has much more initial stability than a Prelude. Prelude would carry a little more speed and accelerate more quickly and ha...

What kind of boat are you paddling now (re: stability profile, edginess, speed needed)? Short list would be the Spanish Fly or Prelude. Mohawk is working on a plastic Maxim, but not sure the price range or when exactly it will be out - should work withing your size range well though.

Why did a scene from American Pie just pop in my head?? :o

And more importantly, why so when I know what a sock puppet is?

Could have quoted other sources, but the "jawbone of an butt" has always been awesome ;)

FWIW, my wife and I are having dinner with Arun Gandhi on Thursday ;) Perhaps I can learn tolerance.
