Hi Rob,
My ankle is well on the mend and I have tentatively pronounced myself fit for paddling this weekend. May I join in?
Nick

after a few knocks, the advantage of a white over white boat becomes very apparent!

Great. See you at the put in tomorrow.
Nick

We can do tomorrow! Can Ali and I join in too please?

I bought genuine Valley replacement covers from Contooocook river canoes up in Concord NH - they sell Valley boats and carry parts
http://www.contoocookcanoe.com/
It does seem like Valley are getting something wrong with the rubber in their covers. The day hatch cover on my Romany failed prematurely too, so maybe NDK use the same supplier. The hatch covers on my Cetus though seem to last forever and are equally soft & rubbery.
-
Anyone planning to paddle Sunday or Monday (July 2nd & 3rd)??
Nick

just to chip in...
I put a keeleasy strip on my Romany a few years back - it's certainly tough and does protect the keel well. I have found that it doesn't stick to the boat too well though, and have had to put a little extra adhesive in a couple of gaps that opened up after a year or two.

Hi Pru,
We plan to come along and look forward to seeing you there. I'm not sure exactly where Gould barn is, could you post a street name & zip perhaps please
Thanks

Thanks - 30350 it is.
Coming from the UK, I've never had to worry about UV protection before...
As for the hatch covers - I've always used Valley hatch covers on Valley boats - I take it the Sea lect and KS covers fit the hatches on Valley's glass boats, but is the same true of their RM kayaks? (I have one of each)
thanks

We've just got back from a week paddling in Maine and I now have the unpleasant job of scrubbing off lots of nasty sticky black marks from my combing. It seems like both of our decks have simultaneously gone sticky round the edges.
Does anyone have any suggestions for what I can treat them with to stop this? Also I'd be interested to know what has happened to the rubber to suddenly make them go like this.
Thanks
Nick

Forgive my ignorance - which 303 product should I use? There appear to be several
Thanks

Hi,
please include me if you do go for a group-buy - I need a cover for a day hatch (round) on an Avocet
Thanks

Hi,
Ali and I would like to join you too please. I'm thinking we might bring the double (the Bismarck) as we haven't paddled it yet this year. Where are we meeting?
Thanks
Nick
