Yes you can use the hobie drive boats. There are about 5 hobie boats in the race this year. 3 are the adventure island trimerans and 2 are some new prototype tandem adventure islandes that are being tested for 2010 production. My good friends Nick and raleigh are using once of the prototypes and...

That 48" width if fine. It should equal the width of your roof. I have been using mega warriors for years and really like it. Are you planning on running aftermarket crossbars? My big suggestion is to make sure you have a minimum of 3 crossbars for a basket with an extension. It will really...

I had a local contact me about this one so it will go tomorrow hopefully. I have another one in orange that I have been keeping down at the condo in the same condition. If you are intersted in that one we can work on shipping. The more I think about it I just do not use them enought to justify...

I have a Necky Amaruk kayak and have decided to sell it. I have had it at my condo on longboat Key. It has served me well but I am looking to get some sit on top fishing kayaks down there and have no more space for any more boats down there lol! Anyway this boat is 18'6" has a rudder bow and...

well typically I have left my packs either in the canoe or under the canoe depending on weather. In other not pack on the ground friendly areas I hang them up. for the everglades race the gear will stay in the boat.

Well I am in "need", lol ,of yet another tent. This time it is the opposite of my rv-4. The Nemo is going to be used on my 300 mile canoe race. at roughly 2.5 pounds and considered a generous bivy this bag will be perfect. The lack of poles will make storage super easy. I'll post picks when it...

I have a new never used Bandit II inflatable. I bought it 2 years ago from NRS for my trip out yo Idaho that unfotunetly fell through. I do not see myself making it out that way for a few years so I want to let it go. I paid $1100 for it. This unit has adjustable seat backs, self bailing, 3...

Absolutely the truth. But what would you expect for a company that has been around for centuries. to own a Gransfors axe is to own a mercedes. I personally have 2. the wildlife hatchet is what I take on all my canoe tirps. It is designed to do it all from cut small wood to skin a kill. By far...

Congrats!!! When is yours due? Our first is supposed to arrive july 2nd. It's a girl as we found out today.

Well on water training starts today! It's perfect weather for it with rain, 18-20 mph winds and 2-4' sea conditions LOL! Actually for this race it really is perfect. You never know what you will get in march on the coast so cranking out 15-20 miles in this kind of weather is a great way to start...

Ha wish i has been sitting. I have been trying to get to the motor install. I finally got me garage in order 2 weeks ago and hopefully will get a chance to put in the motor in the next week or so. Once that is in I will probably try to tackle the ute install after my 300 mile canoe race in...

Ha good thread. A spot messenger New ex officio underwear (stress the new part) Thorlo socks camel back HAWG bike pump Brunton Polaris lantern

Old thread brought back LOL! I guess so far mostly the easy of set up has been discussed. However those of you that have made the jump will need to advise me. My only experience with a rtt was with a campa trailer on the baja run 2 years ago. I can say however that it was great for what we were...

Looks like a great trip! thanks for the pics and commentary. You have a very nice FJC. If I can ever afford to start another rig that is a contender.

Not a 1 off. I saw them when I was on AU the last time. I do not think the U.S. distributor is carrying them or even if oztent still offers them due to cost bulk and wieght factors but the were definetly a production product at one time.

LOL X2 I just bought her 4 sigg bottles.

Well I just got back from another quick 5 day stay in the oztent RV-4 This is my second time using the new roll a cots and all I can say is that they are a matched set. I was on my own this trip so I only set up one cot. I had plenty of room inside for a camp chair clothes bag and the center top...

You will not need the vin to know your axle code. The code is listed in the drivers door jamb. It is on the manufactureres sticker. I would also suggest an ARB rear Locker with a compresor. I run a Viair 480c Compresor and it handles all of my air needs. I found one on the net for about the...

Well I have not been as strict as I needed to be this month. I have not eaten as well as I should have and to make maters worse my bike was down for 4 days and I had to go out of town to a 4 day event which only afforded me one day to get out and ride the bike. Despite all that however I have...

I have been around 2 premeir welders and one mobi arc The first time using a premeir welder was in Tellico. After a bit of welding we had an optima battery over heat in the Defender and it rendered the welder useless. I guess there was a problem in the circuits. My next experience was with a...
