There's a little Island about 15k sq ft big (maybe bigger) just south
east of Bahia Honda State park  around mile marker 30 of the Florida
Keys.  The spot is a little touristy, as you might have to share it
with a person or two on a the weekend. However, I think it's a very

I am likely going to Costa Rica in March for some open boat river paddling.
What else are must do's?

Hello all...
I'm starting to prepare for a 30 hours trip in a seakayak (prijon touryak),
in low temperature waters, in late december. I wonder what kind of clothes
you would wear for that stupid idea of mine ??

Trying to set up a Grand Canyon trip.
Would like to do an oars type boat trip, but at my age I don't think I
could ever handle the climb-out at Phantom Ranch.  7 or 8 days is my
trip limit.

Just had a really fun experience:
  Bought a large 30-square-foot parafoil kite with strong kiteline.
Paddled into strong wind for a fairly long distance.
Threw the big parafoil into the air.

Just going through old junk/books - came across this book.
No idea who sent it to me, but they sent it in May 1999.
If anyone would like to read it email me your address.
Rew,

Hi folks-- I'm attempting to set up a trip for 10 - 15 people to
Northern Idaho for one week next August in northern, possibly central,
Idaho.  We are looking to rent a couple or three cabins on a
canoe-friendly lake, preferably with hiking trails nearby as well.

I'm going to be in Kansas City, Missouri the first weekend of December, and
I was wondering if anyone knows where the closest whitewater is to the city
there, what class water, how often it's runnable, etc. Any info would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have another newbie question: I was told that paddles a really
important and that often when people are having a bad experience with
their kayaks, it's the cheap paddle which is responsible.
I bought a Tarpon 100 sit on top recreational kayak which I use on the
