Thanks much for the feedback. (Peter) We'll have to compare notes on our Philip Edward Island experiences if you are able to make it happen this year. I'm hoping for good weather and paddling conditions as that PEI area looks delightful for kayaking! Joseph, that's interesting about Tobermory. I almost planned to route my trip up that way instead. The islands offshore there looked very appealing. Perhaps a future trip will warrant it.

Hey All, I'm planning a three week road trip over in September to explore and do some day paddles and multi-day paddles in the Ontario Canada, Upper Peninsula (Michigan), and Northern Wisconsin area. I have a few places that are high on my list to explore: Philip Edward Island (Killarney Provincial Park - Ontario Canada) <-- multi-day trip Pictured Rocks (Upper Peninsula - Michigan) <-- day trip Grand Island (Upper Peninsula - MIchigan) <-- multi-day trip Keweenaw Peninsula (Upper Peninsula - Michigan) <-- multi-day trip (but planning to do day paddles) By the way, I'd love to do Isle Royale, but I can't pack that trip in on this go ahead. But will definitely fit it in on a future vacation! I am wondering if anyone on NSPN has ever visited any of these areas before and if anyone may have any advice? Since I'm packing in so much, I'm really only planning on probably 2 nights at each of these spots and will be camping along the way. I'd be very interested in hearing whatever recommendations anyone may have for these or other spots worth considering. Thanks much. I look forward to hearing from the group!

Julie and I are tentatively planning to attend tomorrow for the L3 paddle. We won't be able to stay for the post paddle potluck. Thank you for organizing this.

I'm hoping to tackle scratch repairs that have built up on my Impex fiberglass kayaks over the past 10 years. There are a number of scratches all over the top decks (mostly minor but lots of them). There are also a large number of scratches along the bottom as well (no surprise there). Some of them larger than others. Any suggestions or resources for me to looking on learning how to do repair these myself?

Thanks. Just saw tried this charting software out and I really like the quality. Better yet is that its free too! -
I'm curious if you ever decided upon a new VHF radio. I'm in the market for one as well and was wondering which one might work best for me and you mentioned ones that I was eyeing as well.

I'm planning several day trips in various locations in Nova Scotia (e.g. Cape Breton - Meat Cove to White Point and areas nearby, Antigonish, and Cape Chignecto). I'm finding it difficult to track down navigation charts for these areas (online or otherwise). Any recommendations for locating charts with sufficient detail for day trips and planning out courses to navigate?
