Cback, you reminded me of a paddling trip back when I was young-n-dumb. A buddy and I went poking around Lake Superiors' Isle Royale in a canoe on a 'fishing' trip. We were waaay overloaded, may have have had a bit to do with the couple cases of beer on top of a bunch of unnecessary junk. The water was pool table smooth, so we were cutting across mile plus bay mouths to make time. Glad I was there, but some of the stuff we really shouldn't get away with.
