thats sweet, the only thing that would make it better if the seat was a toilet bowl....by the way i just picked up a 16 ft canoe....in the off season i wanted to paint it....i was told being its already low profile (especially if my big butts in it) you only need to put it in weeds and cover it with burlap....its not registered so we can row it on some of the lakes.....anyone know where i can buy one of those paddles that collapses!
