Prelude
Anthony Did your Prelude Crack in one of the welds I did Or Near the Cracks But Not on it ?
For me; boating brings me closer to to something divine, and in a open canoe I'm 8 Inches closer.

It cracked near but not on, the welds look/have held up great!
I think the crack is just related to the astonishing amount of rocks in the rivers down in that neck of the woods and the age/wear of the boat. Next time I come down I'll probably bring it down to your place for some TLC.

Yes I think that boat may have been left out in the sun a little too much, I think UV damage plastic becomes Brittle with time and exposure.
The Pyranha Preludes also seem thin to me.

is oil canning really that big of deal? Mine is oil canning
also, but I haven't worried to much about it. Does it significantly impair the perfomance?

my last post got lost
My Prelude has oilcanning, but I haven't worried much about it. Does it really affect performance that much?
