Thanks Louie!

I will be there for at least a long weekend.

Looking forward to creekin with other open boaters as always!

A night at Calhouns for dinner and videos sounds awesome!

Just wanted to post a trip report from the weekend. 4 of us took a class with Eli Helbert on Saturday on the Nolichucky. There were 4 places where we had to portage over ice, and several places where we slid over smaller iced over sections. The level was around 1100, and with it just under 4k now, I...

My hopes were that it would be a big Prelude. But I didn't find it to be that way.

I don't think it has as much rocker as the prelude. I wish one of the pics posted in this thread had both boats sitting upright, with one on top of the other.

Thanks for the hospitality to the cboat community Louie!

Awesome-

Have fun boofing into the New Year.

I'll keep my eyes open for you.

Nice job on the calendar this year!

Golder,

While my roll is about 50%, my shoulder is feeling much better, and I'm ready to start working on it again.

nice map Mark. Steve does a good job.

I really like the watershed color coding....

Had the boat "sold", but the buyer has backed out.

I am heading up to the DC area for Turkey day and can bring the boat with me if anyone up that way is interested.
