Almost straightened out

Post by Carol »

:P Today's project was straightening the gunwale. Better than it was, but not quite perfect, definitely functional

To see all the before pics, revisit the thread "singing the paddling blues"

Yano, depending on which is your favorite paddling side, maybe you should have left it bent!

I believe I paddled the finished product and didn't even notice the repairs!

Well done guys!

Smokers falls, Trinity River

Bellow, this is the first time these two have ever paddled together, the guy in the bow normally paddle stern. This was about two years ago I think.

If I did this correctly, this is a YouTube link for the video.
