    You should drill holes in the bottom of your canoe, so the water can drain out. Check back for more helpful tips.

    You have to be in such good shape to do what you do. It makes me wonder about the men of old who did it for a living everyday. Paddle, portage, rinse, repeat. They must have been a tough breed. I certainly tip my hat to them.
